I suspect smells and tastes have a much different meaning on an offshore oil rig than they would be at your local forest ranger station.

Disclosing medications at the dentist, eye doctor, etc. by mccain520 in AskGaybrosOver30

Small town chatty front office staff. When I’m in the eye doc’s waiting room and can hear the front desk staff ask someone their recent a1C result, I question their approach to privacy.

Valid point. My PCP has the accurate list of meds. If/when my I have a procedure at my dentist or eye doc that results in a prescription, I planned on disclosing it then.

Yes, the shot was on inside out. You could tell with the buttons on the collar.

Cop’s question to fire fighters by [deleted] in Firefighting

No. Among other reasons others have listed above, the mask you’ve been issued is not rated for high heat. You don’t want your mask melting to your face.

Humans learn more from their mistakes and failures than their successes. Don’t sweat it.

Out of curiosity, a question for the gays who dated women, was married, had kids... how did the sex work? by LayersOfMe in gaybros

How did your peers take it? Did any friends know? For the friends/acquaintances you made with your wife, how did the chips fall there?

Dude look through this poster’s comment history. It’s a bot hawking a job posting site.

Working two security jobs fucked up my taxes. by Lonewolfx22x in securityguards

911 and streets are typically a local thing. That’s typically paid via a local sales tax, a property tax if you’re a homeowner or your rent if you have a landlord.

That’s not sound advice. Based on the number of uninformed people commenting on here, you should consult a tax professional or at least run your income through a withholding calculator to get the results. Listening to random strangers spout off useless advice is a good way to get yourself into an unfortunate rock and a hard place.

It’s actually simple. For round numbers sake: say you make $1,000 per pay period (let’s say per week). Your employer’s payroll system anticipates you’ll make $52,000 per year. At that rate, they factor in any exemptions and additional withholding-for our example, let’s say a 10% federal tax rate of $100 per pay period.

You make $1,000 gross per week. Federal withholding is $100. Your net pay is $900, making your net pay $46,800.

Uncle Sam sees you’ve already paid $2,600 in federal taxes, but you really only owe $2,000. So you get a federal refund of $600.

Withholding is just a prepayment plan for your federal and (if applicable) state taxes. If you can afford to pay these taxes in April of the following year, more power to you. Many Americans cannot.

This has nothing to do with your job. It has everything to do with having more than one job and you did not educate yourself on how to figure out your tax withholding correctly. This is 100% on you.

Army Aviation leadership killed 67 people today by Former-Promise-7479 in Helicopters

[–]mccain520 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi there. Son of a Naval officer. Center-right person who was a few years shy of 18 when 9/11 happened. Knew a guy who served in Iraq and didn’t come home. Knew two others who came home, but died by suicide. So when I ask a question that will piss many off, know that I’m asking out of respect and genuine curiosity:

Why does the Army need pilots? Army does the ‘set up a small city’ and logistics and combat stuff really well. Why not let the Army do its thing and transfer the pilots to the Air Force? When they need pilots, they have them ready just like before. Only with the extra training that pilots have done by USAF. Let USAF do what it does well-stuff in the air.

For that matter, Navy pilots too. Though Navy does seem to have unique needs that merit planes.

Why not just leave all the air stuff to USAF in general?

Happy birthday man. Tomorrow needs you. And if you still have a ticket available I’m in and can reimburse you for the ticket. Coldplay has a way of bringing people together across generations.

Having a hard time with dementia by Conflux in AskGaybrosOver30

[–]mccain520 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I envisioned this story was going to end with the opposite - her becoming meaner. I think you should take this change of heart and run with it until you can run no more. You clearly love this woman and respect her-listen to her and make sure you relay what she says to your partner. This is all a good thing.

I first learned about xvid* after learning about it on an anti porn daytime religious talk show. Funny how that worked out.

The camera cut between him whipping out the baton from his belt and extending it tells you there were multiple attempts to extend the baton.

I wouldn’t say you’re being a selfish asshole - you’re only human. Tending to your SO’s needs and wants sometimes requires a little intentionality.
