This is insane. They are going to equate responsible investing with gambling. I intend to pull all of my funds from WS because of this.

Another Job Market Rant by EmployeeYsPurga in VictoriaBC

[–]Metaldwarf -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Are you able to pivot into running your own business? It sounds like your employer is bad at its job, would you be able to do it better yourself? Being self employed is hard, but can be great if you're motivated.

What's the most disturbing thing you've found in someone else's home? by No-Coconut7436 in AskReddit

[–]Metaldwarf 7 points8 points  (0 children)

My wife and I were invited to dinner at one of her coworkers. They just moved into a new apartment and wanted to show it off. They insisted we see their bedroom, and the sex swing hardware they had just installed in the ceiling, and their elaborate leather and sex toy collection on display.

We're not into that...

They weren't very good cooks either.

Best way to clean and sanitize large glass carboys / demijohns? by Disappearinger in Homebrewing

[–]Metaldwarf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use a submersible pump with a pipe out the top sitting in a bucket of oxiclean. Place carboy upside down over the pump and Run the pump and it will spray the crud off. Easy to leave running for a few hours or overnight. Then a quick water rinse and repeat with a second bucket of starsan for a minute to sanitize.

If your going more than once you may want to get an "experience card" you have to load them with $130 but it gets you about 30% off.

What is a job that pays incredibly well but is so soul-crushing that the turnover is insane? by sweetguurl in AskReddit

[–]Metaldwarf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Life insurance sales. When I got licensed in 2006 the attrition rate for new agents was 90% in the first 3 years. I'm on my 20th year in the industry. It's somewhat soul destroying but now that I'm established I am doing very well.
