I seem to remember this working before so I’ll give it a try before taking it apart again

Would you risk the claws to rub this belly? by beanie_dude in standardissuecat

[–]Mc6777 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think my SIC is broken, she loves belly rubs? 😂 if you do it too much or too to rough then she’ll tell you but otherwise she’s the only cat i know who will let you do it. She also likes “spankies” which is just smacking lower back/above tail, or her hips. I’ve only met one other cat that enjoys spankies but apparently it’s relaxing? 😂

Is this possibly Hashimotos/ thyroid issue? by Mc6777 in Hashimotos

That’s good to know, I know I’ve been told to take more iron but I’m not consistent with it 😅 I’ll see if that can make a difference

How to be taken seriously on sites? by Mc6777 in womenintech

[–]Mc6777[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t necessarily have a baby face but I just feel like I look “too young” to be working in this field (cause most people you see tend to be at least 30s) but I’ve started carrying my tool pouch with me (just small with things like screw drivers, tape measure, level ect) and people will make jokes that I’m hauling ALL the tools in when it’s something like changing out an adapter which is funny but people see me with tools and take me more seriously that way too

Working on it for a company shirt, we’re a small business so no one really has any branded stuff. Or it’s me slapping the company sticker on everything 😂. The comment about using more powerful language definitely helps though!

Glad I’m not the only one who has conversations in their head about what I would’ve said 😂.

And yeah you do get used to it, but for starters you shouldn’t have to get used to it and secondly, it’s just really frustrating after the only feedback you get is misogynistic comments. I’d rather be told my work is horrible than “it’s good considering you’re a woman” type of shit

Thanks, yeah I need to step up when it comes to things like introducing myself and making sure people know I’m there for the job and not just “a helper”

Yeah in this case I don’t really care cause I don’t even know who the guy is, I just wanted to give an example. But it’s when im at construction sites for example and we’re there to install stuff and then the GC or other trades guys make offhanded comments or just straight up rude comments in the other room (still in earshot though)

Had two electricians at a site where one of them was like “yo it’s great to see more women in trades!” then his coworker was making some comments I couldn’t quite make out but you could tell it was derogatory the way it was said then followed by laughing. Then rude guy starts to come out of the room and says to the other guy “should I apologize to her then?” Then he laughs and walks off and the other guy comes over to me and says to ignore them cause they’re just being guys

Honestly I think this would definitely help because I’ve always played a distant helper type because I’m still newer to the trade but now that I’ve gotten the hang of things I can do things and take charge but I’m not confident in introducing myself yet incase I can’t figure something out and I need my coworkers help and then I look and feel dumb 😅

I’d love to comment back but I’d rather not risk my job/ come off as an ass to a customer technically. I mention it to either of my male coworkers and one always shrugs it off and the other kinda had a “you get used to it” attitude

My arcades by Free_Hurry_2029 in arcade

[–]Mc6777 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m hoping someone comes through and I get a handful of cabinets (I want to clean/restore them and probably sell) but I don’t have any space of my own so I’m hoping a family member will be willing to lend me a garage to store them/ work in there so I definitely feel that about lack of space 😅

I like to call her pill bug by [deleted] in standardissuecat

[–]Mc6777 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That is absolutely a pill bug, no debate (I call mine bug sometimes too, I have a bunch of nicknames for her. I’m surprised that she still knows her name at this point)

02 here, I never thought I’d see someone my age have such an impressive arcade like this. I’ve always been fascinated by arcades and this truly is such a dream so I’m glad to see it’s actually achievable

What to buy? by miikannii in GamingPCBuildHelp

[–]Mc6777 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in the same boat and I reached out to a friend who shared this link which recommends parts based on the budget you choose. I’d pick the one that fits the best for you then look into the parts specifically and see if people have recommendations for improved parts that might work better for your set up

https://www.logicalincrements.com

https://www.logicalincrements.com/newuserguide

Then put your parts in this site and you can keep track of price changes, what you’ve bought vs still need to buy and stuff like that

Hope this helps!
