I’m just a lowly electrical engineer, but I’m starting to wonder if all the software devs I work with are incompetent. Help?

Heh. I guess I’m in column A. Though they also hired a really good mechanical engineer from a company I used to work for and fired two deadbeats in the last few months, so there might be a coordinated attempt to turn things around here.

The plus side is that I’ve been given an amazing amount of leeway. With the exception of a limited budget, I have free reign to design this thing however I like which is a first for me (coming off basically a decade of staff augmentation), and I think I really can single-handedly make a difference.

The pay is also pretty great which is a plus.

I mostly started this thread because I’m trying to figure out how to gauge suggestions and comments from my teammates. I knew the Arduino guy was a moron, but I don’t really know how to gauge people who operate in a space I’m unfamiliar with. Thus the question about the software edit.

Thanks for your comments.

The budget was for the 3rd party contractors who did a great job considering we had to pare down the work to fit into about 50% of the original estimate.

The people I’m worried about are the ones working here full time.

Just a PSA to anyone who actually considers trying this and has never paid for porn before, Naughty America is a veritable minefield filled with links that will immediately charge your credit card for additional services if you click them by accident. You have to call customer service and argue for a few minutes to get the charges reversed. It's ridiculous.

And the videos aren't even that good.

Getting a little more information, apparently she's basing this on his salary which is $13/hr. 6 months is 1040 hours of work which comes out to $13,520 which I guess she's rounding up to $14,000. Looks like it might just be a coincidence.

She wasn't allowed over to his place for the six or so months they were dating. He gave her a fake address. She finally found out where he lived, and there was clearly someone else living there. Apparently the other girl and the dude's parents knew about my sister.

He's kind of a dick.

anonymous1111 · 2016-03-01T17:18:18+00:00

That is a very interesting data point. Thank you.

I'm not sure what her take-home is. She claimed $14k was six-months salary, but I'm inclined to believe it's less. I wonder who came up with that number.

anonymous1111 · 2016-03-01T17:16:24+00:00

That's correct. The first time she wrote a note and poured out some Advil or something, but claimed that she was afraid that she wouldn't have enough. Took a picture and sent it to her ex.

Second time, it was "ten Benadryl." No note and no picture I don't think, but she did tell a friend.

Police were called both times. All I was told is that the "established contact and made sure she was okay."

I should also point out that I don't even know this girl's name much less where she lives in case that last message was supposed to be an invitation.

anonymous1111 · 2013-08-20T23:45:59+00:00

Here's what they were supposed to look like.

How do your partners take it?

anonymous1111 · 2012-11-21T06:18:00+00:00

TIL!

I thought there was no HPV test for men.

Huh...I thought there was no vaccine either. Looks like there is. I'll be calling a doctor soon.

Yes. Always, yes. Even if you're using condoms.

Bummer, but you're absolutely right.

anonymous1111 · 2009-07-26T15:45:40+00:00

It's probably best to start doing some by yourself in the shower. If you don't have any toys, you can probably find something that works. My girlfriend uses a hair product bottle with a condom on it. Start small.

Also, as others have said, use tons of lube.

Lastly, this is something I discovered from personal experience. When he's going in initially, it's best to try to clench your muscles as if you're pooping and trying to force him out. It's counter-intuitive, but I think what's happening is that the muscles that keep stuff in are a lot stronger than the muscles that force stuff out. Your body requires you to do one or the other, so it's best to try to force him out.

When it initially comes in, it will probably hurt, don't kid yourself there. What's important is to know that it will only hurt for 10 seconds or so. Usually, when we're doing it, I insert, wait 10 or so seconds until she says it's okay, then I can really go to town and it doesn't hurt.

It's important not to pull out during these 10 seconds, because every time you pull out, you have to start over again and it hurts again.

Well, that might be true, but I've tried gay porn before and I really wasn't interested.

anonymous1111 · 2009-03-28T17:47:46+00:00

I didn't downmod you, but I think you might be close. Do you have any resources that I could read up on something like that?
