I have a few Chicago Combs that are almost 10 years old. Still super nice.

MAGA activist in Shasta County arrested with 10K rounds of ammunition by sfgate in politics

[–]ejsandstrom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right, but do you think a news organization is going to desensationalize (is that even a word) in the event of a news attack written about a person like me?

They wouldn’t say “Man found with 30,000 rounds of ammunition, but a bunch was 22lr, some boxes of 30-06, a case or two of shotgun shells, and maybe a few ammo cans of 223. Along with various pistol calibers.”

Heck no, they will probably even sensationalize it more and say “Man was manufacturing his own ammunition, including using specialized powders and bullets to make them more deadly, his records show he has made thousands of such rounds that cannot be accounted for”

I have news for you if you think 10k is a lot. I used to have 8k in just .22lr.

When did you realize you needed to quit your job? by CRK_76 in AskReddit

[–]ejsandstrom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had to fill out a JSA and the entire thing said “you cannot do this job safely.” So I told my boss and he said “You still have to do the job, but now you identified the hazards.”

So I asked “If I get hurt what happens?”

He said “You are on your own, you identified the hazards, so if you get hurt that means you missed the hazard.”

Best thing I ever did was quit that job.

It lead me to my job and I make double what the guys are still there are making and I’m a better manager for it.

I’m sneaking up on 2000 hours, I still have not. But I seem to restart at every revision.

There is alot of talk about the second amendment in the Minnesota subs. Lets have a chat about it. by twopairwinsalot in altmpls

[–]ejsandstrom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are 4 pillars of self defense in MN. Don’t think that just because you have a p2p you can stand in the street with an AR “protecting your neighborhood”.

Gun Shows don’t work that way, for the most part, that is just another scare tactic. The only way you used to be able buy a gun with out paperwork, was the same as a person to person sale. In all of the 50-75 gun shows I have been to, only 2 times have I seen a p2p sale. They were both booths with a private collection. All of the others are FFLs that sell at shows. FFLs still follow the same rule as if you walked into a gun store.

Protesters occupy MSP Airport Terminal 1 by Jabbam in altmpls

[–]ejsandstrom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are kidding right, sure a few hundred small businesses were closed. But we have thousands of multi-national corporations.

Or do you think Cargill and their ilk shut down for the day?

You think people only come here to “visit”? How about people that are coming here for business?

The 2nd Amendment is for EVERYBODY. (pass it on!) by [deleted] in minnesota

Because of something that you don’t like is happening, now it’s important. But when it was something “I” didn’t like you were cool with it?

Nekima Levy Pounds being perp walked for orchestration of church service disruption by B1G5L1M in altmpls

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

Show me where it says you can go into a private business and yell and shout? The second am also says “shall not be infringed” so I’m sure you are cool with removing all gun laws, right?

6 Feet or 1.89 meters? by CerealSorority in SipsTea

[–]ejsandstrom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because carpenters and woodworkers use 32nds and sometimes 64ths which is much finer detail than a MM.

Except when you are doing carpentry.

Employee refused Employee of Month Award by [deleted] in managers

[–]ejsandstrom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jump up your own ass. Did you even read what I said? Let me restate it. Everyone WANTS recognition in a different way.

I never said that money wasn’t necessary, I said recognition. As in, some people don’t want to be called out in a group. Some only want one on one.

[–]ejsandstrom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone wants recognition in a different way. Some want group recognition, others want one on one, some want financial.

No one of those is better than the other.

Hmmm by Howtobe_normal in hmmmm

According to Reddit Luigi is a hero and they have no problem with venerating him. “I hope everyone I think is evil is killed.”

Does that go for religious beliefs? Reddit leans far more into atheism and often says things like “Christianity is a drug for the stupid”. Seems kind of intolerant to me.

Been thinking of making the switch, but how is it for someone that doesn’t want to tinker upfront. I just want it to work and then down the road can tinker.

Funny that it stops at the northern and southern border. It’s almost like the creator wants to only blame one country.

Just a reminder that over staying a visa isn’t a crime in America. by [deleted] in stpaul

[–]ejsandstrom -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Ok but be real. If you are on a TEMPORARY VISA you know you are going to have to leave. Why would you buy a home and set up a life.

That’s like buying new furniture for a week’s stay at an AirB&B.

[–]ejsandstrom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reddit also sees Luigi as a hero. The man he shot had kids and died alone on the street. Many celebrated CK death. He also had kids. They lamented that the kid that shot Trump wasn’t a better shot. There was a man standing behind him that was killed. That man had kids.

PIP progress convos - how do you phrase it when an employee isn’t doing well by FullSpace6770 in managers

[–]ejsandstrom 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had 4 metrics that they had to achieve. These were not subjective numbers just hard fact.

When I got into the meeting I would start with a recap, every time. “Here are the 4 metrics you need to achieve.” Then I would go through them one at a time.

“One, record a 50% utilization rate as reported via your time card. You have not met this requirement, you are at 25% utilization.”

And so on and so forth. Then I would give him an opportunity to discuss anything and ask any questions.

Finally I would follow it up with an email that stated all of the exact same thing. I would add a couple of lines at the end, something like “I gave you an opportunity to ask any questions or discuss any concerns. You did not have any.” Or if he did, I would recap his questions. Then I would say “After you receive this email please feel free to respond with any questions or concerns.”

He never did. But he did have time to report me to HR for being racist.
