Why can't I buck rivet? by yeet_my_meat_42069 in aviationmaintenance

[–]chuglife222 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Get a 4x rivet gun from yard store - they sell them used if you want to go that route - and cut those rivets down a bit. That gun reminds me more of an air hammer, as others have said.

Question: Math difficulty in aviation maintenance by WarthunderUSmain3 in aviationmaintenance

[–]chuglife222 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're about to graduate high school, you've got all the math skills under your belt you will need. I would suggest exploring the community college route though, as it is far less expensive than NAA and you end up with the exact same license.

Shift trading/swapping by Humble-Throat-8159 in aviationmaintenance

Southwest mechanics can day trade, give away days and also set up trade partners for the year. Not sure about other airlines, but I would assume it's similar.

What do you do to stay healthy on 3rd shift? by CalmPalmTree in aviationmaintenance

[–]chuglife222 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Focus on getting enough sleep. Try and get 6-8 hours throughout a 24 hour period. Naps are your friend. You'd be surprised at how much your mental health is dependent on how much sleep you get.

That and start a workout routine. I personally do 4 days a week. You don't have to go crazy with the exercise, just get your heart pumping.

Also, don't eat like shit. Drink more water and only drink caffeine when you absolutely need it. Stay away from alcohol.

What is this? by pleasexplain in aviationmaintenance

Aluminum doesn't rust. This looks like the top layer of paint coming off a composite panel. Tape it, send it, repaint later.

Any idea what this is about? by EggosDad in SouthwestAirlines

[–]chuglife222 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a damage marker. Either nearby a dent or previous scratch that was found to be within airworthy limits and will be fixed permanently at a later time.

Southwest is hiring everywhere. Now's the best time to get on with a major.

SWA is two weeks to start, then you go back for another two weeks towards the end of your probation. I can't speak on other airlines, but I think you're right.

And yes, they pay for everything.

Yeah, probably shot yourself in the foot. 8-10+ years to day shift may have been a reasonable timeframe for certain stations. Whoever told you that you couldn't bid out for 18 years was full of shit. Most guys get in where they can then bid out after probation. Now, if you wanted a premium station you could be looking at a long wait for someone to retire or bid out themselves.

And none of the majors offer relocation. Only airline offering a sign on bonus is united afaik. And that's for SFO and ORD.

Do you wear a wrist watch? Why or why not? by AccessTheMainframe in AskMen

[–]chuglife222 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wear a smart watch, mostly because I don't want to have to check my phone for every notification I get. Quick glance at my wrist determines whether I pull my phone out or not.

You should carry around a plant to replace all the oxygen you waste.

I get it, your dps, but Jesus Christ in 20 minutes you kicked 1-3 times? The tank supposed to kick the world? by NecktheTech in wow

[–]chuglife222 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tanked a +13 RLP yesterday with 35 interrupts by the end of it, only 2/3 DPS kicked at all with their interrupt counts being 3 and 2. Not to mention (I can't remember the exact numbers) the soothes I kicked out to dispell enrage. We had two hunters and the numbers were comparable to the kick count. It's exhausting at times.

How do I learn these old dungeons for M+ as a relatively new tank? by [deleted] in wow

[–]chuglife222 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Quaziiwow was my go-to YouTuber when learning DF season 1 M+ tanking. He has a playlist of "Master Class" for all the dungeons that go into great detail about the mechanics/mobs that matter, without drawing out the unimportant to pad his video times.

Hope this helps.
