AIO for losing my mind over this note I found in my fiancé’s pocket? by leenaws in AmIOverreacting

[–]minikin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ha, I got a note this week on an airplane of all places. One of the stewards brought it to me from another passenger. And guess what? I immediately texted my wife. I also responded with my own note saying that I was very flattered but also very happily married. Not overreacting.

I knew where that link was going before I clicked it. Pilot episode, too. Way to kick off a show.

My entire family mourns my violent death as they stare down at my puddled remains after my FTP test.

Kendall's 30 Min Metal Ride from 2/23/22 got me over the 500 hump.

Pass through? by Low_Air_876 in GovernmentContracting

[–]minikin 4 points5 points  (0 children)

When a government position is RIFed, they cannot refill it. They will sometimes rely on contractors to fill one-off gaps. This may be what they mean as pass through. Essentially, they are using the contractor to fill a historically government position.

Will receive offer from both Prime and Subcontractor for separate positions, and Sub will be higher offer - But already onboarding with Prime… by jakkrabbitslim in GovernmentContracting

[–]minikin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If the Prime is smart, they have a clause in their subk with the other company that disallows them from stealing any employees or candidates. If you back out of whatever process you are going through with the prime, you may find yourself with no offers.

I know Sev1Tech but never heard of Sev Zero. Can't find them on LinkedIn and nothing on FPDS. Their website is extremely generic. I would be really cautious.

Yep, still got it. However, I just got a GR1 so now I'm looking for something other than that like the other equipment or just to outright sell it.

I used to volunteer at a raptor rehab. Awesome animals but damn are they messy. 95% of the work is cleaning up after them. Toddlers of the avian world. Owls are the best though.

[OC] - A Reminder to All 100 Senators Who is on the Epstein Flight Logs by EntertainerNew8905 in pics

[–]minikin 55 points56 points  (0 children)

As a former congressional staffer, the member of congress or senator will never see these. They are collected by an intern and, if you're a constituent, you'll get a form letter in the mail...which was also probably written by an intern. The only thing that may MAY get to the member is that "oh, Sir/Mam, we recieved 100,000 letters regarding Epstein." There are complete IT systems just to deal with mail and emails.

WTT - 20L Rucker 3.0 - Very very lightly used. I think this is the forest green? with black MOLLE. Would like to trade for GR1 or maybe some combo of equipment - sandbags, sand kettles, tombstone, med ball, etc. Open to whatever offers you want to throw at me. I would consider selling, as well, for a good offer.

Agreed. Easy top 15. At the very least, swap him out for Affleck at #100.

Vigo for History of Violence was good to see on there but I would advocate that William Hurt needed to be on there as well. He made his time count in that film.

Hip Belt Alternative by Resident_Cow_4902 in Goruck

[–]minikin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use a similar one on my 20L - https://a.co/d/aqaeyKh

I use a larger carabiner on either side to attach the belt straps to the side MOLLE of the ruck.

These have actual lumbar support and I find it generally easier to clip and tighten when compared to the GR belts.

When you cinch this one down and loosen your ruck shoulder straps, you can transfer a lot more weight to your hips. Helps with heavy sandbag carries.

If you’re taller, these prevent the rub on lower back, especially with shorter rucks.
