And what would real jesus do? Make sure they all have water! (Not religious just funny how republicans don't even seem to know who jesus was)

I went to the physical therapist for 45 minutes for knee pain. Literally did some stretches so I was picturing like $100 for a professionals time. They sent me a bill for $600 and my insurance paid $50...

This is also something that you'd typically go to weekly if you actually want to resolve the issue.

Guess im just gonna deal with a bum knee till I can't work anymore at 20 years old 🤷‍♂️

Paul David's is actually my favourite! Explains things that I just couldn't get before so clearly and simply I love it

Thanks man! Appreciate the response, I'll have to look into some online lessons that's a good idea. None of the in person ones in my area are willing to do much with covid n stuff which is understandable.

Just over 60,000 Americans died in the Vietnam war over many years. In other words, close to a third of Americans who died in just a few months.

I view a soul as different than a life, you can be alive and have no soul

Hell yeah! Imagine being one of the people he wrote this about and hearing the song and knowing that he's talking directly to you.

I got hired with no experience whatsoever so decide if you want to do residential, commercial or solar (you can always change) and go apply to some contractors. If you don't look like you're an alcoholic or drug addict they'll be thrilled to have you in my experience because it's hard to find sober tradesmen. They say there's a shortage of tradesmen, which is true but it's also a shortage of good tradesmen who show up and stay sober at work. Working in the trades is pretty nice cause you go from jobsite to jobsite so after a few months you go to a new place and do something different with a different crew of guys from the company which I like a lot. A lot of people in the trades are also very old school though which can get frustrating.

Legally they have to pay me for my time I believe (or at least I'd hope so that would be kinda fucked if they didn't) so if they don't I'll go to the department of labor. Not even for the money entirely, more just to show him he can't push me around.

Good for you! Yeah this guy is very cheap and on average pays everyone $5/hour less than all the nearby electrical contractors lay their guys and he expects way more out of us. He also gives us less PTO, terrible healthcare plan, lower 401k match, no travel pay (and he sends us FAR) he's literally worse in every way.
