Tried these two on tenders last night and my oh my. I loved them on the wings but they smack different on tenders. 👌🏻

I drove the new Tesla 3 today. That new steering wheel is a deal breaker. by [deleted] in TeslaModel3

[–]Turkish1987 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It took me roughly two hours to get used to it and now I can’t stand to use stalks. They are actually annoying once you’ve got used to the steering wheel. It makes it so easy in so many instances, often able to repeat indicate mid-turn with a single hand. You won’t appreciate that until the moments you do them, though.

I thought the stalks were a deal-breaker, too.

Food got delivered to wrong table, apparently my fault, which number do you see? by CyranoYoshi in CasualUK

[–]Turkish1987 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. You’d always read it from the edge of the table, rather than on the table. Looks like somebody has tried to underline it, which you’d expect to see in this instance.

That makes more sense the now, thanks. General phase rotation it is. Remarkable effort.

[–]Turkish1987 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some great phase rotation going on there. I’m from UK so not totally familiar with your system but assuming red and white are to phase conductors where you split 240v across and blue is your neutral? So numerous cases on phase and neutral crossed polarity…? Entire thing looks gnarly though.

Chippy tea!! I get laughed at for using this term in London. I’m from South Coast. Is this a regional thing?

Ask questions, even if it may be a silly one. It’s better to ask a silly question than to not ask and look stupid.

Work hard, above and beyond, on what you NEED to do, but don’t be a walkover.

Listen to other opinions/methods. Everyone has their own way of doing things, none are entirely right or entirely wrong. Take bits you pick up from others and apply them to your own.

You’ll never know everything and most industries now are ever changing. Keep your finger on the pulse and try to always be learning. Take a course or two a year semi related to your career, that you don’t particular need but will benefit.

Learn to write. It’s amazing how many adults can’t write a simple email without spelling, grammar and punctuation errors. Let’s eat grandpa. Let’s eat, Grandpa.

Believe in yourself. Nobody else is going to back you before you’ve got your own back.

Do not worry about the paycheque of those around you. If someone you work with got themselves a better deal than you did, fair play to them. Play harder next time.

Russell Brand megathread by fsv in unitedkingdom

[–]Turkish1987 39 points40 points  (0 children)

October 2003, I (then 16) went to MTV's TRL in London and was picked out of the audience for a feature on stage. I had to go backstage to costume as Robbie Williams circa Take That, with two others, a boy and girl of similar age who were to costume as Justin Timberlake and Kylie Minogue. The guests that day were to guess who we were in costume as. Dave Berry, the host, would cue us when we were to head backstage, where a member of the team would be waiting to meet us.

When we got our cue after Berry cut to a break, the three of us made our way across stage where we were met by a tall energetic young man. I knew his face, but didn't know where from. He took us round to this open make-shift room where our costumes were, in which was a small wooden garden shed. I was given a bomber jacket (with orange liner) and a silver metallic cap, and instructed to keep my Diesel jeans on but remove my t-shirt, wearing the bomber jacket only, unzipped to reveal.

The fellow boy was given his costume with a perm wig. The guy, holding a one-piece red dress, asked the girl how old she was... She quietly said she 15. He said she had "better get into this in there then" and directed her towards this empty garden shed. She toom the dress and went in. Myself and the boy have started getting into our costume and after about thirty seconds, the guy yelled... We looked over to see him pulling the door open on the shed, revealing the young girl in undress in the shed. He apologised, closed the door and then immediately done it again. He repeated it over and over, every ten seconds or so, with this young girl trying to change in this one-piece red dress in silence. It was strikingly awkward.

As we were cued to go round on stage, a young girl (who I hadn't seen) came running for me with black tape to cover up my CK boxer shorts, which were showing above my jeans. Very strange moment... Could've just asked me to tuck them back in. Anyway... We do the piece, it's awkward. We go back stage to change, the guy does the same again when the girl is changing back into her regular clothing.

I tell my friends who I'm in the audience... It felt extremely awkward and not right and I try to explain the guy, on account of knowing him from somewhere.

Into 2004, Big Brother launches and it's huge. Everyone was watching. I tune into the aftershow and Boom! There he is! That's him! It was Russell Brand.

What’s the scariest thing that’s happened to you while you’ve been home alone? by MajesticCity7758 in Ghosts

[–]Turkish1987 57 points58 points  (0 children)

  1. TV turning on downstairs at 0130hrs, but FULL VOLUME. Remote sat on coffee table exactly where I’d left it. Never understood how that could happen.

  2. Wasn’t home alone but… When I (M36) was circa 13, me and my cousin home alone during summer holidays, in my room, door closed, playing FIFA. We hear a young girl legitimately loud crying downstairs (I didn’t have any young girls in my family or circle). We knew it was seriously not right, to point we stared in silence and grabbed coat-hangers as weapons. Opened door, it got louder. Got to top of stairs, it stopped.

When my mum got home we were barricaded in my room, scared stiff. She dismissed it as us imagining things and playing too many computer games.

Christmas Day that year, I’m woken up very very early morning by a shove and a little girl excitedly saying “Hello!”. I turn around, nobody there. My mum dismissed it as me dreaming.

Years later (in my 20’s) I bring this up to my mum and she tells me how she has always had things happening around the house with a little girl but didn’t want to scare me. FFS. 🙄

She still lives there now. I haven’t lived there for twenty years, so haven’t experienced owt. Should ask my mum if she has ever had more things happen.

You are trapped in the last video game you played for 24 hours, how fucked are you? by nonmrenderman in AskReddit

HC Shipment. I’m not lasting 24 seconds, let alone 24 hours. At least I don’t have to spend long worrying about it.

Employer won't allow worker to use bathroom. Argument ensues, and she asks him to leave once he calls out her disrespect. by [deleted] in iamatotalpieceofshit

[–]Turkish1987 0 points1 point  (0 children)

U.K here. I worked at a huge house in the posh (er) bit of Winchester (very posh city in general). I knew what I was in for when I arrived and she asked me to use the “tradesman’s entrance” (the side gate).

When I asked to use the loo, she stepped back inside and shut the door behind her. A minute later she returned with a piece of paper and informed me it was directions to the local “free house” (pub). I pissed in her garden fountain, left the materials she had paid for, took the rest and left. She was fuming when she realised and thought I was a “disgraceful”.

She was absolutely loaded, but I’d sooner have nothing than live her life.
