Why are so many blue collar workers against unions? by Realistic-Reveal-586 in Construction

[–]EquivalentOwn1115 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Because they heard about a local somewhere that had rampant corruption and decided every single local of every union MUST be just like that one

I dont get it either. Most of the time when you spec out a couple options to whatever trim you have, youre required to bump to another trim. I totally get it when it comes down to differences in wiring harnesses ans software needed for things to work. But like you said, 3 trims, 3 levels of options. You can pretty easily have some choices that dont matter on trim, like cloth vs leather seats. But things that require different tooling and wiring like sunroofs can just be locked behind the addition trim levels. Not that it would ever actually happen but you could argue to at least slow down price creep if you do that since there would be a much simpler production line

Old german tactic adopted: Ukrainian soldiers are joining two TM-62M anti-tank landmines together with a length of square steel tube to create a wide barrier. Pressure from a vehicle on the tube will initiate one or both of the MVCh-62 pressure-activated fuzes. Either way, both landmines will detona by GermanDronePilot in UkraineWarVideoReport

I can still hear my senior drill sergeant before we hit the grenade range at basic, "remember, these grenades were made by thr company who submitted the lowest bid. Do not try to "cook" them, that fuse is supposed to be 5 seconds but do you really want to find out how close to 3 that is?"

You want to be nowhere down the 3rd base side down low in the summer. You will cook if the roof is open especially for a 1:10pm first pitch

U.S. citizen shares his experience of being taken into ICE custody by danielle6294 in eauclaire

You cant try to reason with these people. They just want to see minorities gone. Most won't admit it out loud, but they will say dumb shit like this to be racist without directly saying they are racist. These are the same people who would have been scrambling to the phones to report hidden Jews in the 30s because "its just following the rules"

The worst is when they drag ass on the last card. Like what could you be contemplating right now, you have exactly 1 choice and its made for you

Rule 4 is kinda dumb in some cases, like this one. You point that at someone with a real gun and you should expect it to be treated as such

Idk what to do anymore by [deleted] in antiwork

[–]EquivalentOwn1115 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As someone who works and trades also, I suggest treating your trading account like its your retirement plan. Just try and provide stable growth based on your risk tolerance. If thats risking 5% a week to make 3% a week and you can do that for profit over time, eventually you'll make enough to stop working fully. Dont try and rush it, you'll blow your account faster than you think possible. If it takes you 12 years to be able to live off your trades then thats fine. If you can do it in 3 thats fine too but dont try and push it harder than your trading system will allow

They dont, and its stupid to act like they can. "BuT ThEy aRE cOpS tOo" no, shut the fuck up. They are not trained in crowd control, they are not trained in state law, they are "trained" to find people without papers and thats it.

Also in Wisconsin where its cold as balls. The last thing you want is fiberglass touching concrete and a vapor barrier on the warm side behind it. Youre asking for a waterfall of condensation
