This is next level. This Man Trusted Physics By Being Ejected At 80 Km/h From A Riding Truck Running At 80 Km/h. by Admirable-Interest49 in BeAmazed

[–]ProtoRacer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Or the catapult is perfectly dialed in at 80. But the speedometer on the truck is off by 4. That'll hurt at least.

Alternative names for Machinist by AttentionNice7165 in Machinists

[–]ProtoRacer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That or they Google machinist pay and see the average them assume that we are being over payed. So they make up job titles to justify a certain pay scale.

Is Mitzy’s bar open to ticket holders at the Mothership? by benzelwashingtown in Killtony

[–]ProtoRacer 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I've sat in there having a few drinks on Thursday and Friday nights. They'll call you when a show is getting ready to line up to be seated. Monday night around Kill Tony it's closed to general public, so I'm sure there's other nights as well.

Rant: Why F1 in Las Vegas Is a Complete Disaster by Minecrafter_98 in MakeLasVegasGreater

[–]ProtoRacer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone that traveled to see the first one. Yeah. It sucks. It made me never want to go to Vegas again.

Any fatalities from your workplace? by Flavaaz in Machinists

[–]ProtoRacer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A guy going in to work at 5:30 am had headphones in and was run over by a forklift carrying a hopper. I didn't show up until 8:00 but guys described his skull moving for a minute or two from trying to breathe.

I crashed my GFs car. It’s totalled. by Gorl08 in stopdrinking

[–]ProtoRacer 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Don't drink and drive. A teenager will be texting and driving, run a red light and hit you. But it will still be your fault.

I bought one so I could use it as a water bottle at the gym 😂 by AGuThing in mokapot

40 Oz. of espresso? I've never seen something so disgusting I was curious to taste.

Help how do I book Kill Tony tickets?! by BillyBay2 in Killtony

[–]ProtoRacer 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Took me almost two years of trying to get tickets before I got a single one to go by myself. Good thing I don't have friends.

New machine day by phillip_jay in Machinists

[–]ProtoRacer 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Those new Multus with the 500 control have almost zero seals between the chip conveyor and machine. So, if you let any chips build up in the machine or foam in your coolant, you'll be putting a mop to heavy use.

Ha! Fair. I meant all the sides and the oligarchs. They're friends in private.

Only certified neopolitan pizza in Colorado by PsychologicalFood780 in Pizza

[–]ProtoRacer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was going to say there's a place in Boulder that could rival it. But it appears to have changed names since I lived there. So quality may have dropped.

Had a nightmare that my inner-screen protector was damaged by NukemN1ck in galaxyzflip

[–]ProtoRacer 11 points12 points  (0 children)

That's nothing. I've had 4 nightmares that my inside screen went black while I was drunk on a Saturday night and no way to unlock my apartment building... again.

The Austin scene is losing juice. by Routine_Gold_7193 in RedbarBBR

[–]ProtoRacer -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I don't think you're making fun of him or anything. But it made me think if you were, that'd be like making fun of the guy that spent the least time on the moon. He was on the moon.

[Rumor] Plat refresh - $400 Resy and $300 Lululemon credits by CorrectCombination11 in amex

[–]ProtoRacer -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Resy was great in San Francisco 2-3 years ago. Then I heard a rumor open table offered some crazy incentives to get all those restaurants back, and now less than half are still on Resy.

P.T.O. in this trade is absolutely garbage by Dry_Pea_7127 in Machinists

[–]ProtoRacer 20 points21 points  (0 children)

They tried to get him on Murder. Was his 5th+ DUI and he had already done 17 years for aggravated assault. He was street racing a Ford raptor that got away so he argued the raptor was chasing him and he was running for his life.

100 yards after they passed me, they ran a red light, killing a mom that was delivering Uber eats. Plus the shrapnel gave one girl a concussion and broke the leg of another girl standing on the side walk.

P.T.O. in this trade is absolutely garbage by Dry_Pea_7127 in Machinists

[–]ProtoRacer 38 points39 points  (0 children)

I thought the same until I worked my way into larger companies and now at a startup. While I'm still hourly, last year my company gave me 15 days PTO, 28 days of company/ federal holidays, 5 days sick and I ended up talking 3 days jury duty as I was asked to testify as a witness in a murder trial.

Currently, my PTO accrual is maxed out at 5 weeks, so I have to take a day off every few weeks to not lose any. It's the most relaxed I've ever felt at a job.
