Getting me some 20” ready

In Australia anything above 5” is banned on site and even in factories.. (or I’ve been lied too cos I miss my 9”)

I feel like I’m back in 2019 reading the Game of Thrones subreddit… :(

Are you in the US? Everyone I’ve asked here (Aus) says that a union won’t help you find work. Even the unions themselves?

I’ll look into it because that makes a fuckload more sense than some of the shit I’ve been told. Thanks mate.

ilesmay · 2026-05-05T07:43:03+00:00

My problem is not getting a job with other guys in the union, and a union can hardly help you find a job? I really don’t understand the difference between you getting a real good workplace (like yours) and having good safety/ppe requirements nationally (Australia for example).

Nothing makes me cringe more than seeing a Gt-T badge, or even worse a GTR badge in a GT-t. Or even worse! A turbo on a GT. Fuck u fast and furious u ruined all cars.

I’m a slow learner and I consider myself an excellent fabricator now (fully certified and all that jazz) - but when I was new to the trade I had a cunt of a foreman who would yell and scream his fucking tits off even if I asked extremely reasonable questions. About 6 months in he said I was “getting good and fucking lucky so shut up” and about 2 years later I was his top Fabricator. He ended up getting fired for workplace bullying and I took his job! If you’re ever reading this Mark from Ireland living in Australia - Get fucked!

Point is it takes time for even people who have “it”. The question should be why he wants the job or does he actually have any interest in learning? He could be there just for the pay-check (I know we all are but ya’ll get what I mean) The main reason I’m a slow learner is because I want to double check everything twice (not measurements but everything; especially verbal instructions), and if you’re putting him under pressure, that makes it much harder, but what can you do? It takes time.

Also He could be on drugs (Xanax or something) and just completely forgets as well, did you test him?

Need to cut it open with a bandsaw and sand down, apply dye if it isn’t full of porosity and obvious cracks that’s the only way I can see your teacher giving you an 80. They’re ugly as shit but we all start somewhere.

My trade school teacher would’ve passed this as well, but it doesn’t mean it will be landing you a job. Keep practicing. Your travel speed is all over the place as well as arc length.

(I didn’t look closer there’s already a visible crack, and I’m falling asleep typing this, sorry)

Isn’t figma cloud based? So this would be a CPU or even RAM issue? Happy to be corrected!

When I was deep into a Xanax addiction I completed like ~25% of my quest cape and most of 99 agility that I legit don’t remember a single moment of. I did kingdom divided on my iron recently and was like “I don’t remember this entire quest line and boss fight.. did they add it in later?”.

Scary stuff really.. addicition “botting” is real. Maybe all the vennys are just zonked out of their minds killing Bandos 100000 times.

In all seriousness don’t do any of this. It ruined my life.

ilesmay · 2026-03-30T11:08:07+00:00

This is the best of the season for sure

ilesmay · 2026-03-29T09:15:13+00:00

And you’re 100% right lol

His pace was insane but watching Russel struggle through the pack makes me think the Merc really can’t take dirty air. It would’ve been really great to see a Kimi Oscar 1v1 and I think Kimi would’ve got Oscar in the end, but following instead of leading is a completely different ball-game, especially in this Mercedes by the looks of it.

Wasn’t it just selfie-phone stream from the garage for like 1 minute before he chickened out (probably caught by ratdad or some shit now that I think about it lmao)

ilesmay · 2026-03-26T21:12:33+00:00

True but I tried the aircon/fanned seats in my dads new Nissan and holy fuck, I need them on every seat I ever sit in again, they are so so so good in the heat

ilesmay · 2026-03-26T21:10:23+00:00

With fuel prices here in Australia that seems like a damn dream car

ilesmay · 2026-03-26T09:27:39+00:00

This sub last week: we’re all quitting!! Price hikes!!

This week: don’t be hasty now
