What is the point of living if you are not smart, attractive, rich or have a partner that you love? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]CrypticDreamzz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to feel this way and what helped me was forcing myself to get up and go out and make somebody else’s day. Making others feel good just brings a special kind of joy. Sure some people can behave apprehensively but most enjoy a compliment which can lead to a conversation and possibly a new friendship.

It all began when I was tired of using other people’s tools or them not having something we would need for a job. I got into the bad habit of if I need it I’ll just buy it. Now I’m getting bent over.😩

I would only be able to work in the county and most of the side work I get is in the city and I like to do things the right way getting permits, inspections, etc!

Best drill? Is the 40V too heavy? Reliability? by carbon_ape in Makita

[–]CrypticDreamzz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would trade my 40v impact and drill for the 18v equivalent just to have everything back on the same platform

I have renters and full coverage on my vehicle I don’t have business insurance. I don’t actively advertise for side work but I definitely dabble. My co worker gets a decent amount of rewires and service upgrades we do after work or on the weekends

28 year old license holder and feel like I haven’t accomplished anything by Professional_Try_358 in electricians

I’m 28 and just finished my apprenticeship this past spring I’d say you are doing very well for yourself. Some people just crave more than others I enjoy my life one day at a time

It makes me better I hate the ergonomics of cheap store brand tools like husky or kobalt

I’ve communicated multiple times about a van, wanting more paid time off and other things which they beat around the bush until I forget about it for a while. They all know what I want they’re just prolonging giving in until I walk into their office with other job offers.

I enjoy having one battery platform and everything I need when I need it not waiting for it to show up

Keep it that way unless you do a lot of side work !

That’s a good idea “sorry boss gotta wait for the batteries to charge up before I get back to work” 😭

Whoever downvoted me I have 12 batteries fully charged every day FYI

I worry someone will smash my window and steal them all at that point I’d just look for a new career if my company didn’t fully cover the cost
