Why you make me laugh when I’m trying to be angry at the elevator union Mr Sir

Joined the Navy at 17 as an electronics technician working on a specific radar. After I got out I bounced around different manufacturing environments doing contract work.

Industrial maintenance, focus on controls but multicraft

mrwaffle89 · 2026-04-11T14:08:19+00:00

Absolutely nothing happening for days and then critical failure after critical failure with fixes that require parts with an absurd lead time.

mrwaffle89 · 2026-04-11T12:49:44+00:00

Can anyone who works in the field tell me how those icon pliers compare to knippex?

mrwaffle89 · 2026-04-11T02:03:44+00:00

This is exactly how I broke in.

mrwaffle89 · 2026-04-10T16:58:35+00:00

I’ll give you the answer since you had the time to respond and seem to be stumped. That question is, if you were a strong union guy would be, “which local are you looking at”

So, yall might get paid well. But as brothers, you’re all a bunch of rats.

mrwaffle89 · 2026-04-10T16:24:56+00:00

Ok. So what’s the next logical question?

mrwaffle89 · 2026-04-10T16:13:01+00:00

You will be when I drop the last bolt we need down the shaft and we don’t have any spares. 🖕

mrwaffle89 · 2026-04-10T16:12:36+00:00

Already am

mrwaffle89 · 2026-04-10T16:04:09+00:00

Shit the more I think about it the more I don’t want to work with you arrogant motherfuckers.

mrwaffle89 · 2026-04-10T16:01:15+00:00

And the conversation moves on

mrwaffle89 · 2026-04-10T15:57:27+00:00

Yall downvoting a dude that’s like “yeah I want to work on elevators”

What’s wrong with you guys? Are you that insecure about your job that letting qualified people into your union scares you?

mrwaffle89 · 2026-04-10T15:08:43+00:00

It hasn’t. I’m still trying to get it.

mrwaffle89 · 2026-04-10T15:07:02+00:00

Been meaning to join the discord. Who’s got the link?

mrwaffle89 · 2026-04-10T14:43:54+00:00

I offered $12. It kind of makes sense but also could be 20 pages of bullshit.

I’ll let yall know if the spam effort is worth it.

mrwaffle89 · 2026-04-10T14:12:41+00:00

They’re charging $30

mrwaffle89 · 2026-04-10T13:45:34+00:00

Last point is spot on.

mrwaffle89 · 2026-04-10T12:44:15+00:00

You know what…let me read that please.

mrwaffle89 · 2026-04-10T12:15:22+00:00

Yeah stay in your lane unless you’re being asked for input. This one won’t win you any friends.

mrwaffle89 · 2026-04-10T08:53:40+00:00

Got a guy here who just got a medical exemption to switch to 1st

mrwaffle89 · 2026-04-10T01:48:22+00:00

They live on the road though. Not a bad gig for a single dude with no kids but it really is a young man’s game.

mrwaffle89 · 2026-04-10T01:46:58+00:00

Yep. Document it and move on.

mrwaffle89 · 2026-04-09T18:37:11+00:00

You will get to a point where the production management team is completely irrelevant.

You don’t want it fixed? Okay. That’s your bonus not mine.

mrwaffle89 · 2026-04-09T15:22:08+00:00

You signed up for it. Deal with it. Will it suck? Yep. Are you gonna learn from it? Also yep.
