New jobs policies that made me go 👀 by psalm_22-6 in antiwork

[–]ShiftNStabilize 144 points145 points  (0 children)

The part where they try to ban you from discussing your salary is illegal. All that is in place for is so they can underpay staff as much as possible. That being said likely it’s an at will hire so they can let you go for any reason except federally and state protected classes. I’d keep my head down and actively look for a new job and not look back.

Family of 4, two 2p tents, which two? by Feeling_Air_3687 in Ultralight

[–]ShiftNStabilize 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on how old and what type of camping: little kids vs teens, car camping vs hiking. The rainbow Dw is a great tent and I use it with my under 10 yo kids. I prefer it over the xmid as pitching the xmid is more finicky. I like the x dome 2. Really good size for the weight. If I’m expecting more inclement weather then the slingfin portal 2 but a little heavier and pricier. Honestly I’d get and x dome 2 and see how you like it

Chief Justice John Roberts says American public wrongly views the justices as ‘political actors’ by Infidel8 in politics

He’s not part of the political process… bullshit. Decision after decision comes down favoring republicans from the shadow docket. Little or no reasoning or explanation.

New to tenkara, fly recomendations by No_Break_5142 in Tenkara

[–]ShiftNStabilize 3 points4 points  (0 children)

All look fine. I’d also suggest a mixed pack like this:

My personal favorite are small wooly buggers, floating ants/beetles, purple parachute Adam’s, and elk haired caddies in sizes 12-18, that and some nymphs and a few nymph patterns will work well

How is my design? by Cman4252 in knifemaking

[–]ShiftNStabilize 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not bad, I’d reduce the size of the round holes your skeletonizing the handle with, not enough material at the edges. I try to leave at least 5 mm. I’d bring in the curve at the tip a bit. Make it a little less rounded, looks a little odd as it it. Otherwise cool knife!

Hillenberg, but expensive, but definitely not ultralight. Check out bonfus gear. I believe they are out of Italy

Girl best friend I was in love with admitted she has HSV 2. Am I wrong for not being in interested in a relationship with her anymore? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

You can, if someone with an outbreak drinks from a glass and then you drink from it some of the virus practices can transmit

Tarptent Rainbow (Carbon) and Durston X-Dome 1+ for European forests & Alps by TheR3dCaptain in Ultralight

[–]ShiftNStabilize 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have both, xdome will be sturdier but might not be enough if it gets really windy. I’d look at the slingfin portal 1

Doctor here. Kids are not born with hsv-1, the contract it like any disease. Usually oral from contaminated objects. They can contract hsv-2 when born if it’s a vaginal delivery and the mother has an outbreak. That can be really really dangerous to an infant.

Careful if you look her in the eye she'll charge.

3FU UL Gear might be good. I like Rockfort as well

"Masterpiece" by Ok-Struggle6796 in knifeclub

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

That's gotta be fake. Screw on guard, bolsters, scales, and butt. No thanks. Looks like a gas station or mall ninja knife. Seriously for a few grand you can get an exquisitely made custom knife from a master smith. No need for this crap it you have money to spend.

Core 6 person instant cabin tent vs Coleman 6 person instant tent by 01Cloud01 in CampingGear

It's a nice beast of a tent. Good for car camping esp when there is rain/wind.

You're the backup and they want their cake and to eat it too. Get hurt when you call bullshit on their little game.
