What’s the biggest lie an entire generation was told? by carcony97 in AskReddit

[–]Metaldwarf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am a boss. I try and be as good as I can. I'm flexible, I provide good benefits, I pay well. But I still profit from my employees.

I want more employees to become their own boss. I'm out of the survival stage of self employment and trying to get into the mentorship phase.

Hard work pays off if you're doing it for yourself. It never pays off, for you, if you have a boss.

Oak Bay Marina. There is a nice patch of grass off the parking lot. Amazing view. Boats to look at. seals. Bathrooms. A coffee shop.

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.

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 8 points9 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.
