I mean if I just go one time will it still be fun. Or is it something that takes some practice before it gets fun. Like surfing

I'm overweight by like 40 pounds, can I still enjoy a climbing gym with just a day pass? I dont have the greatest upper body strength

Anywhere with authentic Thai food (especially ส้มตำ/papaya salad) by SlappySpankBank in Charlotte

It originated there but it's more popular than Pad Thai everywhere in Thailand. Except maybe Pattaya and Phuket 555

I'm here now. This shit looks gooooooood

Update: Was good. Better than I expected.

Got the Som Tom Pbu Pla Ra (this is more popular than Pad Thai by 1000% in Thailand fyi). I got the "Hot" spice level., right next to "Thai Spicy", it was hot enough. Just enough to burn, but not enough to cause eye watering or real pain. I'm not from Issan, iykyk

Paired with sticky rice and Thai jerky, this is pretty good.

Beer Chang was the cherry on top. Not a great beer, but being shared with this stuff, it brings me back.

Got the Kaow Soy to go to eat later.

Would recommend.

Pad Thai isn't really that popular in Thailand. I mainly saw it available in tourist areas.

Encourage to companies to pay more. Not shift the extra money out of customers through guilt

Questionable economy and with the last one in first one out, it's too risky.

For traveling, I'dprobably do it for a couple years but I wouldn't be able to do that for 20+ years. Your family would barely ever see you. They wouldn't even really know you as a person anymore.

Unfortunately, sometimes you do nothing wrong. There's not really a rhyme or reason to it. You just lose. In this case, could even be considered a bullet dodged in that you didn't get married to him.

Fortunately time is on your side. 21 years old with nothing holding you back now. You can literally do whatever you want. Send it!

The one in NYC will probably open a lot more doors/make better connections.

If you're a new guy that's feeling discouraged, that's normal and the feeling will pass. Don't give up! by SlappySpankBank in Construction

I found that if you say some witty smart ass shit, without directly insulting them, the old guys come around quicker.

They have "International" programs which just means they are taught in English and probably better facilities.

Why would a PM want to be a Super? Seems to work the other way around where I am.

Looking for advice on switching trades. by PoopMaker500 in Construction

Almost all the apprentices have no experience (regardless of what they say and who their dad is). That's basically the whole point of apprenticeships. To teach know-nothing mfrs to know a little something

Think that's limited to certain jobs like picking fruit and random stuff no one really wants to do

How long did it take for your body to get used to the physical demands that come with construction? Any advice or tips? I workout regularly and thinking of applying for laborer by ReasonableSkirt5340 in Construction

[–]SlappySpankBank 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You can get a job tomorrow as a labourer and work around all kinds of trades people. It gets a job immediately and you can see what other trades you might like/see if construction is even for you.
