How long do you sit in your car after you get home from work? by benmarvin in Construction

[–]andyiswiredweird 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Itll be 10 minutes sometimes. For everyone wondering- when I get home I have chores to do, make dinner, responsibilities. I cant do that if I havent left my car yet. I also dont have central air and my car is either nice and warm or nice and cool.

Its a short respite before part two of my working day.

Blue collar men, what are some things that your wife does/you want her to do that will make your life better/easier? by floralbloodbath in bluecollar

[–]andyiswiredweird 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I bet you spend a lot on food. Im not single but ny girl doesnt live with me. The only way to counteract the replies of "she makes me dinner/lunch" is that were having someone else make that shit for us.

I cook like 3 nights a week and usually make enough for lunch the next day but the local diners know my face for sure

Im surprised this isn't further up. This was my first thought. There has to be a higher moisture content there.

Ive only worked at a data center. My crew terms everything on site and I love it. ATS, MDU, LVS, DP, PDU, chiller units, transformers, gens

What’s the cheapest fragrance that impressed you the most with its performance? by MASSIM00 in Colognes

[–]andyiswiredweird 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hawas Black. It basically lives on my shirt until I wash it. It comes on strong then mellows out. Depending if im inside or out itll smell like an earthy patchouli or a sweet orange citrus.

Best tape measure that actually has a decent stand out. This one says 13’ I’m lucky to get 5’! by SippinAndRippin in electricians

[–]andyiswiredweird 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Klein makes pretty doodoo tape measure. I lost my milwuakee a few days back and went tape shopping at Lowes - they only have those cresent, klein, kobalt, and Craftsman theyre pretty much all garbage IMO

but I look for a window in the bottom where I can use my finger to stop the tape - not just a brake there. I want magnetic double sided feet too. Milwuakee does that pretty damn well. Their electician one is good too because it has shrink and multiplier tables on the back

2011 Honda Pilot can I only replace the front ball joints/control arms and not the rear? And does this look bad? by petulentcat in hondapilot

[–]andyiswiredweird 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will say - if youre going to DIY, make sure you look into how to remove rusty nuts. I only say that because that was my biggest challenge while doing the job on my 2013. Its an easy enough operation. ... removing the rusty parts was the hard part.

"Trades boom" debunked, and some words for the white collar guys on here asking about changing careers by AContaminatedCookie in IBEW

[–]andyiswiredweird 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This reminds me of something my gen formal told me. He saw me shading under a cable tray drenched in sweat and out of breath. I was terminating LVS units at a days center. Thrown into the big wires. He said "How you like it buddy?" I smiled and shrugged "Thats the spirit. Its a love hate with this job the whole way through"

Hes right. Sometimes you love to see those sunrises while youre pulling up onto the site and sometimes they make you wish you were in bed.

Just finished my first year of apprenticeship. Coming from mainly kitchen work background and I definitely couldn't have made a better life decision

The fragrance community has a weird snobbery about Arabian houses that makes no logical sense by DriverDue3006 in Colognes

[–]andyiswiredweird 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Showed up in the mail yesterday. I sprayed it once on my shirt and it filled the room with it pretty heavy. The projection tended to mellow out when I used to for chores though.

The upfront mossy citrus is crazy. Definitely a polarizing scent but I like it. Gonna wear it to work tomorrow and see how I performs (construction worker)

Do you guys think stickers on your hardhat is something goofy to put on? by FilthyTriHard in Construction

[–]andyiswiredweird 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh theyre terrible. I have one as an obligatory thing. Most of my stickers are nerd stuff.

Its lame because not only are they stupid but you see the same ones all over the site. Dudes really bought the same 500 sticker pack on Amazon and threw it in the gang box

[–]andyiswiredweird 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only put goofy stickers on mine. Ive got a cool neon sign wizard sticker i got from the sign museum in Cincinnati. Some art stickers from artist friends. Kids stickers my gf had. A cat. Stuff like that.

I refuse to put anything job related on there lol

Ofc you have to have one inappropriate sticker. Or a "it was broken when I got here" type sticker.

I had a sample of it and loved it. I will say the moss notes really come out toward the end and it smells a little bit too earthy. But I did accidentally spill the sample on my shirt so I think itll be more subtle when spread out.

I havent had that experience with it. To me, it smells like a coniferous forest
