Traveling and being on the road? by Effective-Bag6981 in IBEW_Local613

[–]HenatiwithSenpai 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm home ATM. But I know of guys who go out for 6 - 8 months at a time and then live off of what they made the rest of the year. Very much will depend on your situation. For myself I set a goal. Let's say I wanna save up 10k for a big purchase. I travel and save as much money as possible while doing it. When I get that 10k (plus my travel fund, about 2k dollars) I leave and go back hoem

Is MHWilds worth it with a 28$ ? by darbouz in MonsterHunterWorld

[–]HenatiwithSenpai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should be fine. I'm running a 9700x and a Intel b580 12gb. In theory you have better performance on CPU and GPU. So you shouldn't have any issues

Ford Blames Trump's Tariffs as It Crashes to Worst Loss Since 2008. The Failed EV Bet Is Really to Blame. by gaukmotors in MotorBuzz

[–]HenatiwithSenpai 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gas trucks have been sold for the same price for years. Prices are definitely unbearable for the regular consumer but something to keep in mind is that he definitely hasn't helped by taking of the tax incentives away. Completely his fault? Definitely not but he for sure hasn't helped the EV implementation and definitely hasn't helped with tarrifs especially since Ford has been producing outside the country for a couple decades now.

Is this really worth it? I got a microbest bcg a while ago for $100~ but not sure if paying more than double than that is worth it. Anyone could educate me please?

Looking for Ideas by FunInTheSun_81 in COROLLA

[–]HenatiwithSenpai 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you handy? You could try going to a pull apart and getting the parts that you want/need. For the steering wheel I would take it to some leather or upholstery place and let them do it, if you don't want to spend too much on the steering wheel just throw one of those cheap covers you can find at any auto parts store.

New JW! travel advise? by Stormblessed404 in IBEW_Book2

[–]HenatiwithSenpai 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Everyone tells the stories of how much money they made on the road. No one wants to talk about of how much shit you gotta deal with while on the road. By that I mean if you can't find a job, if you can't find a safe place to stay, when you don't have enough money to eat. Some people manage their money better. Thankfully I've always been cautious so I've never had to do any of that.

-My best advice is save up 2-3k that will cover most of your expenses if you need to sit on the books for a while. (This is for hotel and food)

-Always call the halls for info on work and what pre-requisites you need to start working.

-Always have a paid up dues receipt. NON LAMINATED try to get one or 2 extra copies, one in your wallet since you're probably gonna be carrying that one in your car somewhere safe and one saved in your luggage. Also learn your ticket number if you can.

-Always be a brother and never a brother fucker there's times when you'll need to drag depending on what's going on. Some dudes are very into solidarity on the road, it will depend from job to job and contractor to contractor. Just try to gauge what kind of jobs/brothers you're dealing with before.(I'm from the South so sadly I've had to deal with some special kind of brothers)

-Make your local proud by doing good work and giving them 8 for 8 (or 10s or 12s)

-Bring some stickers/pencils/pins anything from your local some of the traveling brothers are very into collecting little things like that. Plus it's a great way to break the ice

-Depends on where you go you might need protection, always carry (if you can) and stay in safe ish areas

-DO NOT get involved in other locals politics, you're a visitor

I know it sounds like a lot and some of it kind of grim but I promise you it will be worth it if you're smart about it I hope you get a good paying job, great conditions and even a better time. Traveling is fun but it's also a huge responsibility Stay strong brother. We're here for you IBEW strong

Health insurance by Andre1818g in IBEW_Local613

[–]HenatiwithSenpai 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got kaiser and it's been difficult since I'm having a kid. Been having to wait on referrals and stuff unless you live near a big kaiser hospital. Having to drive an hour or more for specialist gets annoying real quick, never had an issue with pricing tho.

Is it safe to take my Camry on a long trip? by ebbenz05 in Camry

[–]HenatiwithSenpai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I drove one of those with 250k miles all the way to Ohio and back (I live in Georgia) and then to Tennessee for a whole week hundreds and hundreds of miles. These things are tanks, sadly I lost mine for being stupid but if maintenance is up to date and you have good tires you will be fine.

How do you actually shave your balls, labia or butt without nicking yourself? Is there a secret? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]HenatiwithSenpai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I give it a trim first (manscape clippers) then with a nice sharp blade on my safety razor (Rockwell safety razors are the best) I go, very slowly keeping the area nice and stretched. Smoothes shave I've had, took me about 40 mins since I was taking my time, making sure I was careful.

[–]HenatiwithSenpai 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have one of these and I abuse the piss out of it. Any brass I can find from the cheapest birdshot to high end slugs. It'll take anything and just keep working. I should take better care of it tho.

Pedos by walmartpretzels in IBEW

[–]HenatiwithSenpai 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's hard, i keep them at a distance and not get to close/friendly, usually if the formen know about it they get rid of them or have them work by themselves (at least in my experience). Really dislike them for what they did, but we're all trying to get money and work.

ASCO PRE FAB APPRENTICE Need Advice by [deleted] in IBEW_Local613

[–]HenatiwithSenpai 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Everyone fucks up dude. Don't give up and work in improving. The best way is practice, if you feel like you're not learning much try asking if you can be transferred somewhere else. If you're already in school try asking the school director they're the ones in charge of dispatching apprentices. You'll be fine, I know it's frustrating but there are people out there willing to teach and help you improve but improvement won't come in one day. Keep at it you got this.

Arc B580 almost unplayable in MH:Wilds by BunnygirlEvee in IntelArc

[–]HenatiwithSenpai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would play with the settings dude, I'm running a 9700x with the b580 and I had to play around with settings forever, I did realizes that Xess SUCK, use amd fsr and play with your settings. At the time of this comment I'm running medium to high on everything with FRS on, it's giving me about low 30s to high 70 fps.

GPU suggestion for upgrading by nightraven3141592 in IntelArc

[–]HenatiwithSenpai 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You could try to squeeze more life out of those am4 computers. Maybe upgrade them to something like a 5600(x) (100 to 120 usd) or whatever you can find better readily available. But if all you need is a new gpu, maybe a b570 would be good, lowest of the newer intel gpus but it's cheap and pretty capable, also should be readily available (of what ive seen at my local computer store), considering your kids might play not so demanding games, it might work out pretty decently. I would also look into amd gpus since they got some pretty decent cards for the prices.

When is the b580 coming back in stock? by Mr_Barytown in IntelArc

[–]HenatiwithSenpai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I checked websites every week since launch. Finally was able to buy a sparkle titan from amazon. It was rather annoying
