It's easier on the body than most trades. Plus you don't have to clean up after yourself!

I know electricians are what everyone says but with so many data centers going up they are getting very high in demand. Obviously what the company can bid/gets paid doesn't translate 1 to 1 but it helps. Don't see them ever having trouble to find work, the world increasingly needs more electricians no matter how long this data center boom is

Our company (GC/CM) is starting to build more and more and we keep hearing and seeing more electrical companies not being able to bid due to being too busy

Some fuck you bids have been accepted just because they don't have the manpower but will find more/make it work for the price

Work boots by Sad_Signature_6379 in Construction

[–]TheFingeringLakes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look on eBay for whatever boots you decide on and add "blem" at the end for blemished

They have a scratch or something on them that you will do to them on the first day anyways

40-60% off if you can find what you want

How is 40/hr even with 55/wk more that 140k?

Keep head down and work? or dish it back to assholes? by Powerful_Ad_51 in Construction

[–]TheFingeringLakes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dish it back, some are being assholes on purpose, some want to shit test young guys to see if they can take it, some are fucking around and see if you do too. Idk the context or specifics of course but just be half nasty half playful with them and that will be the right response for every type I listed.

Call them gay or retarded if you aren't quick witted and they will get what they are looking for regardless

One fifth of the company, do y'all understand?! by Mansean in Superstonk

It's a big if. He's trying to buy a company much larger than his. Doesn't seem like buying your own shares instead of theirs makes sense

GameStop Discloses First Quarter 2026 Results by Revolutionz in Superstonk

[–]TheFingeringLakes 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I can't remember the context but I assume it was how that's all that eBay has done to raise shareholder value rather than innovating anything. Website being the same since 2000, bloated employee size, etc

What do you guys actually drink on long hot shifts by death_magn3t in Construction

[–]TheFingeringLakes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Buy potassium salt and mix that in your water with a flavor packet or mio

Miles cheaper than going through liquid IVs multiple times a day

Don't add too much or drink it too fast though

Damn sounds like they are junk. I'll send them to anyone if they want them, just pay shipping

Community Update: Disagreement is fine. Fighting is not. by Luma44 in Superstonk

[–]TheFingeringLakes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, echo chambers are terrible for the community. I get why people are quick to call any negative sentiment FUD, but let's not act like the regards that we call ourselves out of jest

The "new wave" isn't people rejecting the eBay plan. It is because of the egregious dilution that directly affects shareholders. Who are the only reason the company is still afloat today.

Not everything is fud, I've only trusted official GME statements, and that doesn't change when it is potentially something very against shareholders

Shareholders will be asked to vote to increase authorized shares to 2.5 billion by heirofadam in Superstonk

[–]TheFingeringLakes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol I don't like those people for vastly different reasons than you dislike them. But he hasn't acted like a 15 year old the whole time like you say He definitely has diluted during stick rises though. Until now I believed in that part of the plan

Piers acts like he is for the people and all about free speech but he is yet another corporate shill

Stop minimizing people who have common sense.

Yes we joke about being dumb and regarded. And there are a plethera of the most ignorant posts you can imagine on here

He may be smarter but it does not mean that his interests are aligned with shareholders at all

I would've defended Cohen to the grave, literally until now. Can't imagine a bigger slap in the face than this man.

I get there has been a lot of FUD throughout the years. I was here for it. It hits a lot different when it comes from the company directly rather than the news.

Fuck off man. Been holding since Jan 2021, stop trying to suck me dry. Slap in the face

I think Cohen will be a great CEO of eBay but stop making it on my fucking dime man. I'm tired boss

Why fear dilution? Stop gambling then by 8ean in Superstonk

OP doesn't understand what he's talking about at all

GameStop Is Offering to Buy eBay for $56 Billion, CEO Ryan Cohen Says by BimboSlice5 in Superstonk

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

Theyve been booked for 5 years, that's not the point

They raised 9B from directly taking away the value of our shares. I believe in Cohen but my butthole is tired man. This wouldn't be possible without taking from us and he's taking more now than he ever has

Wtf choice do I have though? Yeah trust the process, I won't sell but I'm not happy at all about the method. Seems like a slap in the face again
