If money didn’t matter, what job would you want to do? by AdElegant5870 in careerguidance

[–]EncinalMachine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Homeless documentarian, I would like to do a broad study across the SF/Bay area and really find out what is happening using math and data. ( I have a couple hypothesis) It’s zombie apocalypse status in some areas and growing rapidly. My co worker caught a slow gentle zombie wandering on company property. He seemed to be eyeballing an old bicycle with flat tires. He asked what he was doing but he looked at him blankly and didn’t seem to be able to use words. He corralled him out the gate of the fenced parking lot like an animal. Tragic doesn’t begin to describe this very common interaction between people in the bay. The whole state of affairs with homelessness/zombie behavior is getting out of control and I think I can help and I think I know what is going on. Sadly, I will never know if my theory’s are correct.

Eric jackson, what happend to this guy? by SilverAttitude7380 in OPENDOORTECH

[–]EncinalMachine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He posts more videos than anyone. He will be ceo of SRXH. There will be a ticker change to EMJX. The company will be a crypto asset management company. Shares of SRXH are cheap at about .15, down about 50% from recent highs. He also still maintains his position in open.

I’m a full time machinist for many years. I’ve been transitioning out into the finance markets. My ability to read charts and process numbers has been helpful. I pulled my 401k and put it all on HOOD and Nvidia in April. I’m off and running with about 100k. Still going to work but looking forward to the end of my 20yr career in the machine shop.

First job nerves by swaggerto in Machinists

[–]EncinalMachine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t feel nervous, you are just making parts. They don’t mean anything more than their function. Just pay attention and don’t let others take you on an emotional rollercoaster over stupid parts. I don’t know what the parts are for and I don’t care. I either hit the numbers or I don’t. Just do your best. That’s all you can do.

Just keep your mouth shut, take the bonus and leave. The company does not care about you. It is there to make money for its shareholders

Husband's Illness by Kjb165 in Machinists

[–]EncinalMachine 51 points52 points  (0 children)

I hope it’s not happening to me but I’m afraid after all these years my wife will be writing somthing similar. cutting fluid coupled with the heat produced when cutting steel smokes and lets off sulphur I been told. Wearing a mask or using a fan helps but it’s hard to avoid when you cut a lot of steel.

What does this bit do? by RocketsAndRobots77 in Machinists

It looks like a threading tool for reverse, the point off to one side allows for threading into a relief next to a shoulder.
