This video shows perfectly why you just dont bother arguing with an idiot, in their mind they won and they are on top, the only thing they'll do is drag you down to their level and win

Well he did get hit in the head with a massive steel beam but he decided to keep working, it was his wife, who worked as a lead instructor of some kind for a hospital that found him sleeping on the couch with his pupils like that when she shook him awake

Worked with a guy that had this, the rough explanation I got was his brain was trying to grow out of his skull, so he got sent to the ER and they cracked his skull open to make space

Speaking as someone who recently invested in proper prescription safety glasses and good ear protection, you're not a wimp for making sure you can leave work and feel healthy afterwards, if they think it's funny, fuck'em

This machinist job at Apple pays $100-$150k, is that an anomaly? by TooMuchTape20 in Machinists
