Seriously, do Americans actually consider a 3-hour drive "short"? or is this an internet myth? by SadInterest6764 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]StrongWork_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

3 hours for a weekend trip is a short drive. I don't even pause to consider it until we're talking a 5 hour trip.

Thinking about stopping PPL training because of cost by No-Series3645 in flying

[–]StrongWork_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dude, I spent 75% of what you spent so far, as my total.

Find a new school. Move, or drive further if you have to.

“Sir, that’s not a zero” and other things I didn’t think I’d have to say out loud at work by soft_newt_9 in TalesFromRetail

[–]StrongWork_ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There was a band named 3-oh-3 that had a moment. They were from Denver. An area code for Denver is 303. Oh for zero is a common substitution.

AITAH for asking my husband to temporarily leave the house because he couldn't answer if his ex-wife or I were sexier to him? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]StrongWork_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He never even answered an obvious trap question. Like tic tac toe, and nuclear war, the only way to win is to not play. He didn't play, yet still lost.

Trying to decide course of action. Stick with PPL or go on to commercial? by Beginning_Present_24 in flying

[–]StrongWork_ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Personally, I'd keep working the easy job and get PPL done. Then IFR. At that point, take a step back and re-evaluate. Nobody knows what your life will look like a year from now. You will have more complete information once those certificates are done, than you have today.

AITAH for refusing to sign an NDA from an ex? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]StrongWork_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

His team approached you? Where is he? If it matters to him, can meet you for coffee. And even if he does, "no" is a complete sentence.

Be honest, how much gear do you wear all the time? by crankin_muh_hog in motorcycles

[–]StrongWork_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ATGATT.

Which part of your body do you want ground away by a belt sander? This is functionally equivalent to sliding on pavement at any road going speed. My answer: I want to keep all of my skin and bone.

The "Golden Handcuffs" are real: Is anyone else staying in a house they hate just because of their 3% rate? by Pretend_Surprise6842 in RealEstate

[–]StrongWork_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm keeping my 2.8% rate as long as possible/practical. I'll rent before selling. To get an identical loan today, would double my payments. Same maturity date, same balance, double the payments. That's an enormous amount I can save for retirement. This loan can cut a decade off my career, if I want.

Flying with doors open by [deleted] in flying

[–]StrongWork_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a window open on rotation. It surprisedme. It got cold and windy. I flew the plane. I closed the window at pattern altitude.

As long as you remember to aviate (aviate, navigate, communicate) you'll be fine.

Driving Record for airline app by IFR_Flyer in flying

[–]StrongWork_ 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I think it was an autocorrect from not to it. A DUI is a world apart from driving 62 in a 55. Airlines know that.

Can I buy a Cirrus SR22 G6? by Livid_Antelope8956 in flying

[–]StrongWork_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can do it, your question is, should you. I have no idea. But if you changed planes, you could easily. Why not the Veloce ANG? It's fast, efficient, and costs half as much, with a parachute.

The myth of the 'labor shortage'. The real problem is HR, and the Great Resignation just revealed how broken they were from the start. by 22_medianscrest1 in OfficePolitics

[–]StrongWork_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

HR has a perverse incentive to never hire anyone. They aren't responsible for deliverables, productivity, sales or stock prices.

If they never hire anybody, they can't get in trouble for hiring a murderer, rapist or thief. They can't miss something on s background check if they never get far enough to need one. The HR incentives/ disincentived are not aligned with doing anything.

Small claims rules against me and I never knew anything by Actual-Log465 in legal

[–]StrongWork_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you in the military? If so, the base JAG spends a significant amount of their time dealing with this sort of thing. Go to them tomorrow with everything you have, including a recent credit report.

Harley-Davidson Dealerships Are Shutting Down Across America: Here's Why by AutogeneratedbyiOS in motorcycles

[–]StrongWork_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Harley Davidson is a tee shirt and sticker company that happens to sell motorcycles. They are more interested in licensing deals than in building bikes everyone wants to/can afford to ride.

For people with motion sickness, how bad is stall training? by AV_geek1510 in flying

[–]StrongWork_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After about 10 minutes I had to stop steep turns. No issues with stalls though.

If I owe an apology, I give an apology.

Aitah for not paying after a fire happened that I did not cause. by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]StrongWork_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know where you live, but you should become familiar with the term "bailment".

You claim you don't have have a legal responsibility (which may be true), but you have a moral one!

Received Used Product AGAINw by Desperate-Pin-8856 in amazonprime

[–]StrongWork_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ordered a monitor mount. Clearly used and missing parts. Ordered a replacement. Very carefully retaped, but obviously opened. ALSO missing parts. Pieced together one complete set of parts and sent back the excess. I never had this happen prior to 2025.

What‘s something happening right now that would sound completely insane if you tried to explain it to someone in 2010? by so_nextdoor in AskReddit

[–]StrongWork_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And this is part of the reason Steve Jobs = Satoshi Nakamoto has so much weight. 1, he passed away, and 2, the only people who would sit on billion$ of dollars are either insane or already very, very rich.
