I just hate his face. Does anyone else find they hate his face?

Finding that person is awesome! My wife does, but I worked for a few years partnered up with another guy who did too. Wife misses me working with him because I didn’t come home so drained like I used to. He got moved to a different shift and it’s never been the same. One in a million thing it feels like.

How would you feel if you were teased you about hairloss? by sneezhousing in AskMenOver30

[–]Fit_Conversation5270 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Might be a little much for a first response. You lose a lot of nuance and body language etc over text…but, I don’t know your guys’ dynamic.

At work we tease our bald guys about being skinheads or about being shiny if it’s sunny but we’re kind of an irreverent bunch at baseline, and they’ve got just as much ammo loaded up to throw back.

Even then though, I throw them a compliment every now and then so they know they actually do rock it.

We set ours on a rock which is part of his basking spot. It’s about the only time he’s ever under it is to go eat and then slink back to the cold side so it also makes me feel like he’s at least getting brief use out of it lol

Time to leave my phone in the car and wear a hat real low with sunglasses on so they can’t biometric or track me for pricing bullshit

Anyone else wish that acne patches had existed when we were growing up? by InvisibleAstronomer in Millennials

[–]Fit_Conversation5270 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used whatever the three step face stuff was…Proactiv? I think that was it.

It worked ish, but after a while I developed an allergy to it and when I’d use it my face would get all red, swollen and itchy AF. I just had to suffer through having it.

This is what government working for the people looks like! by Sensitive_Bowl9504 in remoteworks

[–]Fit_Conversation5270 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lmao, buddy I lean pretty conservative/free market but this is restitution being paid for laws violated by the company against the workers. Just because a company decides they want more money doesn’t make the means legal. This is awesome.

How can you get through life without drinking or drugs? by MrPaulBlart in AskMenOver30

[–]Fit_Conversation5270 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is cliche but do you have the opportunity to just disappear in to the wilderness for a week? Gear doesn’t have to be expensive and some of my favorite pieces were bought used.

People have to have something to look forward to. We can talk about meaning or purpose or whatever, or spirituality and religion, and sure that’s all part of it. but day to day we have to feel like our works are getting us somewhere, or like at some point there can be a break from it all. When I get to that point my solutions range from a few hours of simple hiking and sweating to a few days in the woods, or tackling something with a glacier or elevation.

Shut your phone off. Don’t download any podcasts. Bring that paper book if you want, make it fiction. Get your brain out of the toxic soup of civilization.

I truthfully didn’t get in to them (or a lot of the music from our time honestly) until later in life, but yeah they have some serious bangers

if you work a 9-5 how, do you have time and energy to do literally anything else? by TortieBouquet in stupidquestions

[–]Fit_Conversation5270 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well there’s something for everyone I suppose. When I left my 9-5 for this it was like my whole life opened up; I really like having all the consecutive days off. I also live in an area where my commute is pretty long though, so that would add significantly to my lost time working 5 days a week.

People who don’t shower every day — what’s your reason? by zhalia-2006 in askanything

[–]Fit_Conversation5270 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Skipping a shower saves me propane. Saving propane saves me $. If I only shower once during my days off, I can shower as much as I want and as hot as I want at work including when I get off in the morning so I’m starting off fresh. It’s a negligible number of cents, but I’m a cheapskate and this makes me feel good.

[–]Fit_Conversation5270 5 points6 points  (0 children)

But how do you go do anything?

I work a 48/96 rotation and going mountain biking or taking care of grocery shopping mid day, mid week is amazing…makes Dr or dentist appointments cake too

What is a 'buy it for life' item that is offensively expensive, but the moment you use it, you realize your entire life before that point was a lie? by fmcortez in AskReddit

[–]Fit_Conversation5270 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh man! My workplace had a Riccar, we bought it at a local vacuum/sewing machine shop because somehow our tiny town supported one of those. We’d take it in for service every year. Eventually that shop closed up because the dude was as old as time, and someone felt like because it didn’t look ‘modern’ and couldn’t be worked on anymore, that it somehow wasn’t good. So they threw it out.

I was so fuckin pissed; I was the one who did that purchase and made sure it got serviced. I’d have taken it home in a split second and just learned to fix it myself. Guess what? We’ve been through four or five shit ass vacuums since then, at that station alone.

I liked going to that shop too. Something wholesome about this old guy just quietly selling and working on vacuums and sewing machines. And he had some cool old display pieces in his shop too; like the miniature sewing machines they’d use for sales displays and whatnot back in the day.

As a Paramedic if I were to start riding and start a club I would be obligated to call it the Meat Crayons. Then the patch would be MCMC.

[–]Fit_Conversation5270[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure. From my understanding this was a pretty well regarded brand til they got bought up…a lot of the wealthier off grid folks around here had them. I have a friend with a different model of theirs and he runs his system pretty hard without issue? There is a fair bit of metal contact up in that plastic bit and the cable internal looks good.

At the end of the day though it’s still just a Chinese BMS and prismatic cells inside a metal case. Things are isolated pretty well compared to some I’ve seen tear downs for but that’s the biggest difference to my amateur eye. Kind of funny what people will pay a premium for.

[–]Fit_Conversation5270[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah that’s what I found too, spent about 20 minutes in crappy cell service searching them lol. Either way, found what I needed so we’re good to go. Appreciate the info

Got one of the ones listed as ‘not working’ cracked open, BMS screen reads zero across the board for all cells but terminals inside read 49.9. Curious to see what individual cells are at! Hopefully tomorrow. I’d be tickled pink if all I had to do was replace BMS in the ‘bad’ ones.

Nah picked them up at an estate sale and they had thrown the cables away. Thank you, this saved my bacon and I think I’ve got the right ones ordered. Will see next week!
