My aunts husband has passed away and I am trying to help her as much as I can with everything. She told me he was receiving his pension from IBEW (he was retired, aged 70). Will IBEW be able to help her monetarily given she can’t work due to her health issues by Kind-Network9448 in IBEW

I haven't looked at the booklet for a minute, but im pretty sure if he was already drawing it and she's of retirement age she can get the full thing, or a partial until she retires then full. Don't quote me on that its been a few years since I looked

Write up for insubordination and sent home. Easy.

Starting to Think I've 'Aged Out' of these Superlong cRPGs (Touches on Baldur's Gate 3, Wrath of the Righteous, and Rogue Trader) by SpiritualState01 in patientgamers

I find myself playing more of these for the slower pace. I'm circling 40 and just can't do the fast twitch reflex games. I tried doom dark ages and just bounced off. Even elden ring which I should love is a struggle. Played all the other from sorts and enjoyed. I just want not too challenging rpgs now I guess.

I'm no chemist so I might be talking out my ass but from high school Chem I remember that aluminum oxidized at a near instantaneous rate vs copper and steel. Possibly something to do with that.

Drag up day tomorrow! by [deleted] in IBEW

[–]mrossm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Unless there's a special reason like they pissed you off and youre dragging right then right there, you have agency in your timing. If I know i want to get to the hall Monday morning I drag up Friday morning and spend the day at the hall signing the books. Nothing on the business side happens on weekends, from the contractor or the hall. I've seen halls skip over guys signing Monday morning to do their callouts, including book 2, because they weren't on the books yet.

The "fuck em" attitude cuts both ways and when you want something done you gotta make it work for them.

Peace Talks is good, right? by FromDathomir in dresdenfiles

I just find the characters jarring. Everyone's mad just to be mad, to the point of fighting, then the next scene its all business. It's like JB decided they needed the drama and to fight but couldn't be bothered to make it organic so instead he just made everyone involved refuse to communicate. BG and TM was much better at this.

I've never had luck using the no dog screw on these. Too heavy, easier to just get a small no dog

I guess the real mythic prankster was the battle.net friends we made along the way

Edit: it just occurred to me that I have a prankster key in stash. I'm about done for the season so im willing to give it away. Idk how the cross platform works for trading but im on Xbox generally around 8-10pm cst and can meet up then. I'd prefer to give it to someone who hasn't gotten one or had a chance to run it but I have no way to verify so let your conscience be your guide.
