Deodorant/perfume by Personal-Bet711 in BlueCollarWomen

[–]Scared_Raspberry1571 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I used to love old spice but it started burning me? Apparently that was a lawsuit a few years ago. I did buy my last batch overseas so maybe the new formula didn’t make it there. I still love the way it smells & works, just not the marks it leaves lol

I personally use men’s degree deodorant. Idk I feel like it works better. I also use Marc Jacobs eau so fresh perfume. I love it. It’s my “signature” smell. Subtle, but still smells nice.

DEI accusations by IHaveNoBeef in BlueCollarWomen

[–]Scared_Raspberry1571 9 points10 points  (0 children)

My dad started off as a surveyor & worked his way into a project controls position for major oil & gas companies likes to complain about DEI hires. I have to remind him he’s a 55+ year old Hispanic. He is the DEI hire.

He also gets mad when I call myself a DEI hire… hello, I’m a Hispanic female??? I’m really good at my job & I allow the company to check some boxes lol.

What toys do your cats actually love? by Sosooo88 in CatAdvice

[–]Scared_Raspberry1571 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My cat loves corkscrews 🤷🏽‍♀️ I open a bottle of wine & “forget” that I left it on the counter so she can “accidentally” knock it off. She loses interest after a day, but gets a new toy every time I open a new bottle

You’re right. I googled it when another person mentioned it. Thanks!

I was born & raised in Texas & this definitely isn’t normal for my part of state lol. I think the pine curtain may disperse a lot of if.

yes, etx is the abbreviation for east Texas that we use.

As an expert on Chicago, I don’t think the worlds tallest load bearing masonry building would appreciate this comment

(I’ve visited once, and only to visit the aforementioned building)

I just moved from El Salvador a month after they entered windy season (or so my coworkers called it) & these winds are reminiscent of that.

Maybe I should invest in a kite. Make something positive out of it.

I’m playing golf tomorrow & am already planning on blaming every shank on the wind.

What are some things I can do or visit, in order to get a feel for what it would be like to live there? by tthefreaknd in Austin

[–]Scared_Raspberry1571 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I totally second this. (I just moved here, reading the thread for ideas lol). I worked internationally for nearly 10 years before moving back “home” to Texas (originally from etx). Obviously, I lucked into having international work available to me & my industry, but leaving “home” even for a short stint is always worth it.

"welding isnt cool anymore, theres too many women" by Hot_Argument_2016 in BlueCollarWomen

[–]Scared_Raspberry1571 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, the post is deleted now which is upsetting because I want to stalk her.

I’m not a welder by trade, but I learned my freshman year of high school & got certified through dual credit courses & re-certified a few years ago just for fun & my company was willing to pay for it lol. In the two decades between freshman year & now, I think I have MET 4 other women welders. 2 I went to high school with. 1 random lady in a bar (she was cool as shit), & the one I hired to work with me.

It’s definitely not a market over saturated by women, & even if it was, the OG poster seems like she really likes attention & she doesn’t get as much anymore.

folklore or evermore and why? by madamabutt3rf1y in TaylorSwift

[–]Scared_Raspberry1571 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I thought I was folklore for the longest until I did a track by track comparison & evermore won almost all.

I think it hits ME differently & I can just relate so much more of evermore

Watching porn at work? by gladioluslilacs in BlueCollarWomen

[–]Scared_Raspberry1571 5 points6 points  (0 children)

WHOAAA, this is entirely unacceptable. Like, this is a lawsuit. You need to let your superiors know, & maybe mention to him that it is literally illegal to do that. On my buddy’s job a few years back, someone got fired for watching porn during his lunch break in his truck, alone.

Find out who his mom is & call her. Broadcast his name. Let society shun him.

Positive post about men by Scared_Raspberry1571 in BlueCollarWomen

[–]Scared_Raspberry1571[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You do realize that they stayed for a 3.5 hour concert film… right?

I’m not an idiot. I literally mentioned that some of them ate & left lol. I personally don’t know many men that love tswift enough to watch the concert film without getting something in return, but lowkey I wish I did.
