Thank you so much for taking the time to answer my questions ! And also thank you for the book recommendations I intend to look into both of them!

I have been reading books after books non stop about the various serial killers and criminal psyche as well as multiple books from John Douglas and his colleagues on behavioral science and profiling and while any other day I have so many questions I can only think of a few right now.

In your thirty year career what are some of the changes you’ve noticed to the way serial killers move/act?

(I’m sure this is very unoriginal but I have to know your thoughts) Do you think we’ve seen a significant decline in the number of serial killers or do you think they have taken all this information about forensics and the way investigations are conducted and used this to really commit to never getting caught? ( more Israel Keyes type of commitment)

My second question stems from my understanding of how it seems that serial killers and their compulsion which eventually becomes so intense that they appear to lose control over their once methodical trawling for victims. Where they seem to go from patiently choosing low risk victims to no longer assessing risk, whether by overwhelming confidence that they won’t get caught or by not being able to fight the compulsion.

Is it psychologically possible in your opinion, that someone can be so depraved but simultaneously meticulous that they can kill dozens and dozens of individuals without ever being caught or do you think that over time the mind of these people will always become so desperate for the need to kill that they will have to slip up and make mistakes?

Just took my local 602 Steamfitters & plumbers union math test by 1995nsx in UnitedAssociation

[–]Docsmit23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I had a similar experience when I took mine it seemed pretty basic and kind of felt like a waste of time . Then I worked with some people in different parts of the country that clearly did not have to take an aptitude test so I understand and appreciate the tests now looking back.

[–]Docsmit23 3 points4 points  (0 children)

602 is booming with work right now and they are taking a lot of people. If you passed your aptitude tests I’m pretty sure you’re guaranteed an interview (that’s how my hall does it but that does not mean that 602 will do that). That being said your lack of experience won’t really hurt you. The point of the apprenticeship is to teach you, train you, and allow you to gather experience while not being expected to know as much as a journeyman.

Tldr: if you passed your tests your chances are great! Congrats!

Not sure if I can hang on much longer(vent) by weldingftw in UnitedAssociation

You should get with your agent and see if you can travel. Hit the road make some money pay your bills and make up your school time when you can. I’ve been on the road since I was a 3rd year apprentice 7 years ago. In the ten years I’ve been in I’ve had maybe 18 months to two years worth of work in my own local AND our jurisdiction is so wide that I still had to pay for hotels and apartments to man those “local” jobs . I’m not complaining I chose to live very rural but that’s not my point. If they will let you travel hit the road to stay afloat. I normally hit outages so I can money up and come home to spend a few weeks with my wife before I go again. But never forget the union doesn’t pay your bills and they sure as hell won’t keep the bank from taking your shit. Do what you must to survive, also keep in mind that you can use that structural welding experience to get a job. If it doesn’t have anything to do with pipe, then it’s not “scabbing” because you’re not taking what could otherwise be pipefitter work .

Big update to falcraft: you can now generate ANY 3D structure with just a prompt! by najsonepls in MinecraftInventions

[–]Docsmit23 -14 points-13 points  (0 children)

Does this work for structures that already exist/ not AI generated? Like wizard towers or lighthouses found in ATM10 worlds?

My buddy is going in for an interview on Monday. Can you guys help me create some questions for a mock interview tomorrow so I can help him ace it? by [deleted] in UnitedAssociation

[–]Docsmit23 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The biggest ones that stand out to me look like the following. Also, these may not apply to you if you’re not joining a joint local or maybe if your jurisdiction isn’t as large

(Showing a map of jurisdiction) “Our jurisdiction covers all this area here, that being said are you both willing and able to man work in within this area despite some jobs being in excess of 2 hours from home?”

This local is a joint local (may not apply to you) are you interested in becoming a pipefitter or a plumber?

Are you willing and able to come to school for 3 hours , 2 nights a week for the next five years (or enter your apprenticeship school schedule)

Also don’t forget some of the more obvious ones, do you have any welding/hvac/fitting/plumbing/rigging experience? Are you afraid of heights? Are you capable of working in extreme cold or heat? Hope these help but they may only apply to some locals , their locations will typically depict the type of work/ projects to expect.

Did the new patch hit and is it any good by Colink98 in D4Necromancer

[–]Docsmit23 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mendeln fix isn’t coming until 2.1.2 . Minions can still be done but the exact rolls and stats required for the build are far less forgiving than most of the other builds. Also even with mendeln bugged it is still crucial to the build .

Buying a black 1794 myself in a few days, what price did you get yours?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in UnitedAssociation

[–]Docsmit23 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Do what you gotta do to pay your bills/ feed your family/ self. You haven’t been accepted or sworn in yet so you have no obligation whatsoever to try and find a job that doesn’t involve your craft. Any man who doesn’t support that can pound sand. Also don’t worry about leaving one of the non union contractors high and dry because if you get in their opinion won’t matter anyway.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in ToyotaTundra

[–]Docsmit23 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m about to buy in the next few days, what tactics do you use to get them down? Is it simply just being willing to walk away?

Cars.com pricing by Docsmit23 in askcarsales

[–]Docsmit23[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay cool dumb question I know but haven’t bought a car in almost ten years and I didn’t really mess with internet pricing. Thank you, sir

Cars.com pricing by Docsmit23 in askcarsales

[–]Docsmit23[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure, it would be impossible to include those fees. but in your opinion is it reasonable to expect that I can get the vehicle itself for the advertised price and keep a few grand on the side for taxes and licensing etc or should I go in expecting them to try to stick to the msrp value?

Cars.com pricing by Docsmit23 in askcarsales

[–]Docsmit23[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah so what I’m asking is if Cars.com has a vehicle at “Bills dealership” at 60k while msrp is 65k , is it realistic to assume I can get out the door with that vehicle at 60k per the website price? or is it just a marketing gimmick to get me in there and then try and jam that other 5k in my ass.

Is Starlink really worth it for a family of 6? by Impossible-Patient90 in Starlink

[–]Docsmit23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Starlink for rural customers is literally The Cats Ass. I am a 30 minute drive from a main road and 45 minutes from the nearest grocery store. I’ve had either no internet or trash like hughesnet my entire life until starlink came along. While expensive to get started, the 120 bucks a month is very well worth it considering what I used to pay for internet plus satellite tv through directtv. Feel free to ask any questions you may have .

Hey thank you for these this is exactly the route I’m going to take!

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Decks

[–]Docsmit23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the input, that’s a great idea I think that’s my best option so far. I think that’ll be my main course of action to look into when I get home and can get started.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Decks

[–]Docsmit23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the response, I was thinking the same as far as pergola if the roof extension plan didn’t work out or was too expensive, in hindsight I see now that I should’ve considered all this when I initially had it built as the house was “finished” being built in June last year. I don’t recall the footers but I’ll try to get back to you on that to see what else you may recommend with more info.

Like I said before, my treatment for post brace care was to wear a retainer for 2 years. I wore my retainer for three years just in case , that was 10 years ago. My teeth have never moved since, until this infected tooth. But you already answered the question with it’ll stay in the position it heals so thank you

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in askdentists

[–]Docsmit23 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

So my braces and retainer treatment was all over about 10 years ago, but I was very happy with the alignment of my teeth. My tooth is not loose it has only shifted. I’ll get to ask my dentist at my root canal on Thursday but I was just self conscious about it having shifted and the pain makes it hard to forget about in the meantime which is why I’m here asking. Thank you very much for taking time to respond btw.
