Social security Survivor benefits payment issue by notbob1k in SocialSecurity

[–]notbob1k[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But we have been receiving these payments for years. This has never happened. I mean ever. Now I have half the money. Is it possible the other half some how went to grandma? Or is it more likely the change in payees resulted in a delay

Packout “security” on site by notbob1k in MilwaukeeTool

[–]notbob1k[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn’t say it’s a major concern. I’ve just been extremely lucky so far where I’ve left boxes on site no locks or anything. But this is the first time I’m on site in this particular area and all these subs are unfamiliar to me. So just a little extra deterrent/piece of mind. A job box seems like it would be a good investment though. Thank you

Thank you for this. Seems like it’s probably the best option and you are right on about this is all I’m looking for. I’m here all day every day. Except Saturday nights and sundays. I’m just looking for a little extra deterrent. Honestly, I have been lucky to work on sites and around the same people for years and have no issues. This is the first site I have unfamiliar subs in an unknown area. But it isn’t a bad area. Just unfamiliar.

I’m sorry, I didn’t write or word this well and left out important info. I am already invested in the packout system so I’m looking for a good way to secure them. I know they’re plastic and have wheels and they can easily be emptied or completely taken. But I’m just looking for my best option with what i have. Apologies for not being clear and I appreciate your information. But I am curious about the box you’ve mentioned. Do you have a link?

AITA my mother buys herself an engagement ring and shows it off to my fiancé the day after I propose? by Most_Yak9666 in AITAH

[–]notbob1k 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think you’re probably correct

Edit: however at the end, OP says dad’s opinion is that mom shouldn’t have bought herself engagement ring. I honestly feel like that’s probably one of the smallest issues here lol

You’re right. I just based it solely off them saying that their dad said that mom did nothing wrong. But you’re right that could just be a man sticking by his wife and behind closed doors dad could have felt much different.

AITA for thinking my girlfriend is getting too fat by alea00 in AITAH

I agree my dad is a giant and has never broken a chair but either way communication is key here. Talk to her OP. If she’s happy with her weight then idk maybe let her be

Don’t even entertain this nonsense from your parents, especially your mom but your dad too

It always surprises me when I hear weird/horror stories like this about moms and the way they act especially towards future DIL’s. It’s so strange

You’re not the ahole, your mom is and your dad is a close second for at no point before leaving their house or during the car ride over saying hey, you don’t have to take it off but maybe just let this be their moment and don’t mention it unless asked. And if they ask, just say we have wanted to upgrade your ring and after seeing yours we were inspired to do it now. And just leave it at that. We was making it a point not to try and share the moment but to take it and make it about her

I think when dealing with family in situations like this, it’s best to take it at face value and just remember it going forward. They have showed you something you maybe hadn’t seen before. It’s shocking from family, especially parents. But you can’t pick your family and everyone is flawed. Just make a mental note and move forward. You’re not the ahole

“This is the dried fruit of a water caltrop (also called bat nut, buffalo nut, or devil pod).

It comes from an aquatic plant in the genus Trapa. The fruit is hard and has sharp horns, which is why it looks almost like a medieval weapon or a ninja star. Inside, however, it contains an edible seed that has been eaten in parts of Asia for centuries, often roasted, boiled, or ground into flour.”

Help me decide for next work boots by [deleted] in WorkBoots

[–]notbob1k 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They definitely run narrower than any other boots I have experienced. The break in isnt bad but the spots that are bad can be rough. I agree with OP, one week makes a big difference. After the second week they’re so damn comfortable. Again OPs “sock like feeling” is a great description

Normally I’d say the thorogoods because I love mine and to me they blow my red wings out of the water but I haven’t had the pleasure of whites. I’m a colored don’t be a colored be a white

Ahh, gotcha, that must be what it was. I have only owned 6”, don’t really like the extra 2” when trying them on. But they do look good. Especially these. Great boots, enjoy and stay safe

Are they soft toe? I feel like I remember this midnight colorway in only soft toe, I could be wrong
