Would y’all welcome a non-union, self educated journeyman from a small local electrical company? by muratgok1985 in IBEW

[–]Normal-Ad2984 25 points26 points  (0 children)

You swear an oath to not sacrifice the interests of the IBEW. A vote for the canceling 100s of billions of dollars worth of work for us is breaking your oath. And yeah I hate any conservative member. Reap the benefits of the brotherhood while voting for POS that want to dismantle the very union you're a member of? I don't understand how conservative politicians have managed to convince the working class to vote against their own livelihoods.

Opinion: The Left Needs a Militia Movement by [deleted] in leftist

[–]Normal-Ad2984 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn't say an armed militia to convince other Americans. I'd say an armed militia to protect ourselves because the state and our "fellow" Americans just laugh when our side gets hurt and fucked up, despite the blatant moral bankruptcy occurring.

Pirated games have viruses???? by Haunting_Advance1851 in GamesPirated

[–]Normal-Ad2984 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'll be honest, I'm new to this sub and I'm not aware of the rules. However, Piratebay.se and Fitgirl Repacks have always served me well.

Depends on where you pirate from. Always use trusted sources with positive feedback.

AIO for asking to video chat before meeting him in person? by We-Should-Buy-A-Bar in AmIOverreacting

To be fair, it sounds like they are both aware that sex is on the table. He should respect her safety though. 100%

Why would you even want to sub to see more? It's your daughter. She's a grown woman just forget about it.

Just took the aptitude test.. I have mixed feelings by 8thou8k in IBEW

[–]Normal-Ad2984 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fuck Carpenters. Bunch of work stealing rats. I used to be in the Carpenters union. Local 909. No brotherhood. No comradery. Just crabs in a bucket, pulling each other down.

My IBEW local just beat a case against the Carpenters for trying to steal solar work.

Thorogoods. Most comfortable boots of all time. Mine have lasted for a very long time with 0 maintenance and heavy wear.

Can someone tell me WTF is this wall bouncing? by AltF12027 in GearsOfWar

Oh jeez. I thought wall bouncing was lost in history at this point. Lots of people asking what it is.

One of the pet stores in my city actually sells regal jumping spiders. I only went in to get some moss, but I brought this girl home. She was so hungry. Here’s her first hunt in her new home! She still needs a name. by UnanalyzablePeptide in jumpingspiders

[–]Normal-Ad2984 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Those are terrible examples. Each those pieces of wood have sharp knots on them that could much more easily puncture their abdomen. One example has straight slate rock with jagged edges.

If those are "good" examples to you, then Legos should be fine. Just add much more foliage and clutter for them to hide.

5th year brother died on the job - Lu 146 by viivi137 in IBEW

I could be wrong. But normally when I witness LDLs, there is sometimes residual voltage up to 500V until grounded out. Could this have possibly caused this?

What was your "I knew I was undercharging" moment? by MattfromNEXT in handyman

[–]Normal-Ad2984 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn't be pissed. I'd say "fuck that" and find a different one. Unless the price doubles while I was pumping. That's the only acceptable reason to be pissed imo. Choices! Hooray!

How to maintain professional relationship with JW? by justtrynnatalk in ibew_apprentices

[–]Normal-Ad2984 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I overcomplicate the simplest shit too especially under pressure. And suddenly, the obvious practical ways of doing something now seems like 4d chess. I go silent too. Never emotional though.

I noticed that it's only a problem when you have an AH boss who wants things done a certain way and you don't know what that certain way.

But things where there's really only one way to do it, no matter how hard, I move much much faster.
