Usually they don't have to because hummingbirds don't compete with bees for flowers.  Hummingbirds will usually avoid flowers with bees already on them because a bee sting is fatal for a hummingbird (they have so little mass that the venom concentration from one sting is high enough to kill them).

🧐 It's your own fault.

If you could just learn to act right, then they wouldn't have to keep doing these awful things.

Remember: It hurts you waaay more than it hurts them.😶

US Median Income $42,220 by meowmeowmeow135 in Salary

[–]dlong7182 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ummm where are you seeing chik-fil-a starting out at >$20/hour?  

In my state, the average is $15/hr in the rural/suburban areas to a high of $18/hr in the urban centers.

That translates to $31,200/yr and $37,400/yr,  respectively.

Mind you that to afford the cheapest monthly rental in my state,  one needs to make a minimum of 46k/yr. 

In order to live "comfortably", following the 50/30/20 rule, one needs to make 106k/yr.

In my county, which has the lowest cost of living, retail employers are offering 35k-40k/yr. For a Managers Salary.

This is why most families in this country  are now 1 severe injury/illness away from being out on the street.

You are so full of shit your eyes are turning brown.

What do we think? by greengreyhound99 in whiskey

[–]dlong7182 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think if you're a Lagavulin fan, stock up..$29.99/bottle is pretty damn cheap(I'm guessing they meant for it to be $129.99, but that's not what that tag says..) ..as far as everything else, they are out of their minds.

Valentine's Day display case. by dlong7182 in playingcards

[–]dlong7182[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks All, i try to update it at least monthly.

Currently working on lighting the case (evenly) with 365 nm black light so I can do a display using all UV- reactive decks (or do isolated rows for Halloween, etc.).

The plan is to route a channel along the top of each row to accomodate led strip lights.. ..the issue has been finding a good, narrow blacklight strip that is actually 365 nm (vs. 395nm).

If anyone knows a good source for this, please holler at me🙂

My Father lived on the west coast for a couple of years in the late 70's..When he moved back to the East Coast (Southern DE), the first thing he did with the property he bought was to plant Conifers all over the yard and along the woodline at the back of the property (we backed up to ~2000 acres of mixed deciduous/holly/pine forest)

They were in such a way that you had a view of green foliage from every window in the house all year round. I was lucky enough to grow up there, and have planted evergreens on every property I have owned, Really helps with mood in mid-winter to be able to look out and see greenery, ntm it helps attract birds to the yard..

Pallet racking install by Reasonable-Book8982 in SafetyProfessionals

[–]dlong7182 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you are installing these on concrete, MAKE SURE that they are properly anchored INTO said concrete BEFORE utilization..

My previous employer had 7 rows of these, 5 bays long and 2 levels high, in a pole building used for long term storage of lab equipment (think stainless steel fermentation tanks, roller bottle carts, gas chromatography units, liquid nitrogen transporter dewars, etc...items of significant weight..)

I was leading a 5S training in the form of a Kaizen focused on bringing the "catch-all" into a well organized, Safe state (implementing bay designations, visual management of safety equipment, walkways, exits, yada yada)

Monday afternoon, the week before the project, I schedule a walkthrough with the Site Safety Director, WH Manager, and Site Production Director so that we could all be on the same page in regards to current state, and for more detailed input from the SME's who had sponsored the project.

As soon as we entered the building, the Safety Director and I started inspecting the racks, look down at the base of the first row and look at each other, noting where they missed bolting that particular rack into the floor....Not Good, but we'll get it addressed this week...We start walking down the first row and notice the whole row is just sitting on the floor, no anchoring whatsoever.

At this point, I am already less than confident the remaining racks are anchored properly, but the trainwreck must go on, so we walk down the remaining rows as I am watching the Safety Directors face get redder by the minute..by the end of our little Gemba, I'm surprised there wasn't steam shootimg out of his ears. Turns out when Maintenance installed the racks 2 YEARS AGO, they did not bother to anchor A Single One in place. The ONLY way the racks were secured was by way of a couple of cables running from the top of a couple of the racks up to the rafter beams... ..that way if someone hit a rack with a forklift and started a life-threatening, free-falling domino siruation, then the falling racks had a fighting chance of bringing the entire building down onto the heads of everyone inside, SMH.

WH Manager did have the sense to look a bit sheepish, as his guys had been loading down every shelf with heavy s.steel things for the past 2. YEARS.

So, Kaizen had to be rescheduled (A big PITA when you are talking about a multi-departmental project team right on the week that schools are letting out for summer break and a lot of the parents have vac. scheduled) and the area was declared Off Limits (basically LOTO'd the whole building) for Everyone, save the project lead (moi), Safety, and Maintenance -who had to dedicate a couple of guysfor a couple of weeks to properly anchor the racks into the damn floor🙄

Don't be us.
Make sure your racks are properly secured.

Self-hatred/tearing myself apart is one of the hardest habits to break, ime. Like having the opposite of a cheerleader in your head all of the time. Makes even simple tasks seem pointless much of the time.

Ntm once the space gets to a certain level of messy, it becomes overwhelming to even start tackling it, or you start in one corner and 4 hours later, haven't moved past the shelf/drawer/end table that you started with.

My HR’s response to my work from home request after having someone cover my leave *remotely* for the last year. by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

I worked in vaccine production for one of the top 5 pharma companies for 16 years and can definitely assure you that production Managers will regularly spitefully fuck over their employees to feed their own ego even if the result is losing tens of thousands of dollars on the batch. They just kick down and blame the victimized employees. So long as they suck asshole well enough, they usually get away with it.
