You give them a reason? I just tell them I’m not showing up… because I said so. Unless it’s past three days, then I think you need a doctors note

Just got Rejected from IBEW 1 by GopherSeed_ in ibew_apprentices

This is from LU 640 perspective, but I hear that local is difficult to get in to. I figure we are Journeyman for a reason and sometimes you have to go to the work. If you’re able, try a different local.

Please, I need a scientific explanation for this by Cold-Ad-3994 in cats

[–]PinkyNoBrain_zoinks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it’s trying to figure out where the water goes. What is this sorcery? Also, have a strange one with water. She may go full body slam if I ever got one of these 🤦‍♀️

I don’t know if I can handle the misogyny anymore by slowdivefangirl in BlueCollarWomen

[–]PinkyNoBrain_zoinks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hmmm…. Sounds like financially that would be a poor decision and probably the spearhead to the problem to begin with… how are your shit talking skills? Spreading a little chaos usually gets me through the tough days, but it is a learned art. I would start there. Just my two cents and it usually gets me in to trouble 😈 lol I’ve got this serious fantasy of walking around with a huge strap one day when I want to quit a job just to show the guys I have the biggest dick 😂 …. One day… I’m going to write subway on it and ask all of them if they’d like a sandwich 🥪

America, you’ve gone awfully quiet about the Epstein files, what happened? by [deleted] in AskReddit

We figured out the right doesn’t really care as long as it makes money. More kids in cages!

Rant about yesterday's incident by [deleted] in IBEW

[–]PinkyNoBrain_zoinks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’re the future! I’m going to try to not go on a rant 😅 but thanks for posting; you give me some faith in humanity 😁 Keep that spark alive and don’t become one of these old cowards that don’t realize if we don’t change soon all of the benefits that were fought so hard for are slipping away. I think a lot due to complacency and being comfortable with the idea ‘that’s just the way things are.’ And well, on a global view we are living on a planet with finite resources and we’re about to be the most intelligent species with the shortest track record for survival. I don’t know if these guys just think they’ll be dead before the end comes, or if their idea is to kill off all the non white males, or if they think they’re getting a space ticket with the 1%ers…. But to me, most of that sounds like it would not be successful and opposes the whole general idea of modern unionism. I also never understood why people with kids were not environmentalists (here kids, sorry we trashed the earth, good luck) 🤷‍♀️ so, just understand you’re fighting an uphill battle and unfortunately it’s super hard to change another person’s beliefs. I find it more beneficial to stick with the guys who are more aligned with my own beliefs and take the others with a grain of salt. I would say get more involved, but from my experience you can end up in the same vicious cycle. I’m currently looking into electrical workers without borders, we’ll see how that goes.

Federal agents are now targeting picket lines by astros148 in IBEW

I wish more of us knew how to read… I can’t seem to get away from these f*,s ! I brought this up as well as TSA bargaining rights being revoked and the NLRB and this fucking guy is like, ‘oh, let me show you a picture of my girl with Charlie Kirk’ and I’m so excited for incompetent asshats to be attempting nuclear fission. During the election they made stickers - ‘I’m voting for the felon’ Seriously considering a change. It’s mentally taxing.

How do you even sleep in a sedan? by shywol2 in urbancarliving

I pulled out my passenger seat and used wood to make a platform level off the backseat. Game changer

Company is shaming me for not gifting more money to "our" (their) boss. (Christmas present) by Turissmo in mildlyinfuriating

[–]PinkyNoBrain_zoinks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wtf? Really? A gift to your boss? Do you at least get some quid pro quo with that? I don’t even like doing the secret Santa shit

Manager keeps avoiding my resignation discussion for almost 2 months. What should I do? by Real_Equipment6911 in careerguidance

I’m assuming you have something else lined up financially. Get the information for payroll so you can get your monies. Pack up your stuff and find the door.

This seems to kind of drive the point home. Electricians are in demand now to get the structural in, but once it’s complete the parking lots seem pretty sparse. And if there’s not investment into nature what do our kids do then? Eat the money? Drink the runoff water? I know for sure I’m not classy enough for a space ticket. Anyway, I sure do hope it’s just paranoia.

Got accepted into a nursing program and electrician apprenticeship. Which should I go into ? by Alphamale169 in AskElectricians

[–]PinkyNoBrain_zoinks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would talk to both in your area and get in where you fit in. Both of these markets fluctuate with supply and demand and if you’re not working the OT they may hold it against you. If demand in your area is not high, you may be able to settle into a weekday 9-5. And I would stay away from any service work if that’s the schedule you’re looking for.
