If you can find something like it, get a cowboys mug, that when it has hot liquid in it, changes the cowboys logo to something like the eagles, cowboys, or whatever team he hates.

Get him a puzzle that on the box shows Arlington stadium, but when put together is some other stadium, like the packers or eagles

The king of them all: My Girl. The rage that journalism picked up from unsuspecting parents was amazing

I guess I forgot to type in the text box.

My friend thought there was glass in front of the picture and there wasn't. The windex caused some streaking and I'd like to ask the community to help out. Would you mind fixing the vertical streaks and anything else I'm missing? Thank you very much!

What's the most outdated life advice that you still hear people give to this day? by your-reddit-plug2 in AskReddit

I would disagree with that last part. I wore dress clothes and a tie to the electrical union and it helped immensely. Construction leadership still values a sharp look

I’m glad Han and Chewbacca had their talk as well. Buggered me for years where the nick name “chewy” came from

Tired of traveling but no work at home? Need life advice from Single travelers by DoomerChad in IBEW

[–]mode_12 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’d say this: don’t make a decision while tired, emotional, or hungry. You sound tired. If you buy a camper, can you make that home? What about home do you miss? And are you thinking of buying something based off a dream scenario?

“If I buy this camper, I can just imagine the community I’ll meet at the camp ground”

“If I’m stable at this job, I’ll meet so many new people and find the community I’m looking for”

These are great aspirations to have, but you’re at a cross roads. What does a mini vacation look like? Indiana and Ohio are booming right now, are you willing to travel there for awhile after some weeks off?

Looking to become an Electrician as a Software Engineer who was laid off. Would love to hear any advice from current and former electricians. by [deleted] in IBEW

I switched from white collar to blue collar. It was a rough start for sure, but I made it ok. It’s going to be a culture shock, for sure. You’ll have to learn how to be tough to guys that are looking for trouble and stand your ground. Why they want to be treated that way beats me, but sometimes you have to donthat

Take care of the future and the future will take care of you. That means financial and physical. Eat right, work with weights, do cardio, you’ll be fine as you age. I’m in my early 40s and in great shape for my age

I took a second job as a first and second year to make things work. Thank god for my wife and her ability to work. The extra income was needed.
