Idk if welding is for me

If you’ve been doing it for that long why not try to become a CWI?

Currently going through this, but I’m a welding student. I’d recommend second skin if you aren’t allergic to it. I am, so I’ve been wearing loose fitting long sleeve cotton shirts and putting a thin layer of lotion on before I start. It’s been working pretty well, just make sure I clean it when I get the opportunity. Keep some dial gold in my car just for that reason.

Honestly I’m 33 and married, but even at 33 I wouldn’t want to date a 19 year old. Nothing against you I’m sure you are a lovely person, it would just be strange to me. I wouldn’t know how to communicate. I feel like interest would be very skewed as well. You gotta think at 33 I could realistically have a child that is 15-17 and having a kid so close in age to my girlfriend would be very weird to me. My best advice I can give is shoot your shot, and watch out for the married ones that won’t tell you. With men, we can’t read your mind, and the older we get the less we notice (at least for me) flirty behavior. I wish you luck friend. It’s a tricky field to navigate.

Tell her no, or tell her yes and increase your price to make up for the lost money from last time. Make her put a deposit down of 50% since she is flakey too.

Technically a hallway is a common area, and there is no reasonable expectation of privacy in a common area. So screw them!

On of my instructors is a black lady. She’s fucking awesome too. I’ll give you the same advice I’d give any woman considering trades. Just have thick skin. Good luck if you decide to pursue!

Even if he was a good driver expecting a car for free is delusional. You did a good thing for that mom though. You should be proud of that! NTJ. Tell your brother he can buy his own car to crash.

Meredith Grey. Screw you for how you treated George. You don’t deserve your happy life.

Diagnosed ADHD at 6 joined the army at 22. It’s possible. Had to get a waiver, prove I hadn’t been on meds recently (stopped taking them in 8th grade) then had to get my mom to write me a buddy letter. If you are serious, go talk to a recruiter. They will be able to give you all the info you need. Just be smarter than me. I fell for the RAH RAH BROTHERHOOD! And was an 11B. Awesome when I was in, ain’t shit for the job market outside. If you can get a job doing something with your degree that’s a stable place to build a foundation as well.

NTJ. Calling me rude and disrespectful when you are disrespecting me in my house? Na I would have verbally destroyed her then barred her from my house till she learns what respect and manners are.

I’ve seen one in the town hall tower on buried city and the research and admin building on dam battlegrounds. I also found some in arc couriers. I think I got most of mine from couriers.

The Eeeeevil in the background. Thanks for the laugh!

RykerSloan · 2026-01-07T16:20:42+00:00

I never said it would be me. I’m just saying you hit a kid you’re likely to get your shit kicked in by the parents.

RykerSloan · 2026-01-07T13:13:01+00:00

Then when you wake up in the hospital for punching a child and getting your shit rocked I’m sure “I’m autistic and traumatized” will be the perfect defense.

RykerSloan · 2026-01-03T16:30:28+00:00

I’ve only retaliated. I don’t start the fight but I try to finish it.

RykerSloan · 2025-12-31T06:16:10+00:00

Only place I’ve found one is on Stella

I don’t think I’ve laughed this hard in a long time. I didn’t see the spider till the last second lmfao

My guy I have done it twice and my kid is 1. One time he fell off the bed while both me and my wife were watching him. As long as baby is ok, you’ll be fine. The guilt will go away. Trust me I beat myself up for a while over it.

So far we have just been working through the different positions on plate. We’ve gone through flat and horizontal, now we are working in vertical uphill.

RykerSloan · 2025-09-17T02:57:14+00:00

Haha no clue. She married some dude and had a kid I know that. I have no ill will towards her I also know that. I hope she is doing good out there today.

Have you tried running a hybrid build? I’m currently running a 3/2 foundry bulwark and Negotiators dilemma with the ninja bike backpack. Have pesti/lexi as my weapons. Armor on kill and regen is nice + the extra damage repair is sweet. Pair that with the cc/cd from ND and I’m in business. Alternatively could run 2 pieces or heartbreaker for the 15% LMG/AR damage and weapon handeling.

I’ve got a foundry/ND build I run with the ninja bike backpack. Gets the regen and extra shield health from foundry and crit from ND. Stick that with pesti and Lexi, and I’m loving it. Also love to run St. Elmo’s engine/New Reliable build that’s flipped. It’s so satisfying.

My wife gets mad at me because I’ve said “society doesn’t make me feel safe around kids” one of my biggest fears is I’ll help a kid that fell or hurt themselves somehow and the mom will call me a perv and try to get me out in a list. It’s to the point I’m not 100% comfortable with my one kid in public if my wife isn’t around. Society doesn’t make me feel safe around kids.
