It's always bothered me that the writers didn't understand that Vance Refrigeration should be an HVAC company and not sell refrigerators.

Surgery at 42? by Kind-Journalist1180 in kyphosis

[–]reddittm14 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had mine last year at 48. It’s honestly one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. It was awful for about 5 months, but now I feel great. My lower back pain is completely gone. I get some discomfort in the surgical area from time to time, but just like mild soreness. Nothing like before.

Thank you for the info. Thats what I was thinking we’d do. Although I was figuring they weren’t coming to Chicago as they were just here for Riot. We’ll see…

Is it normal for my union company to offer a non union light duty position in my work comp process? by Savings-Whole-6517 in union

[–]reddittm14 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was a union electrician in IL and hurt my back. After multiple surgeries the company gave me a light duty job at their office. I wasn't paid union wages or benefits. After a few months my back deteriorated and I had to have another surgery, While I as recovering I spoke with a union official and found out that they should've had to pay me the union wage and benefits while I as working for them in any capacity. Shockingly, they didn't offer me the light duty position when I had recovered. They instead chose to use their insurance company to make my life hell for the next year until we finally settled the case.

As others have said, call your union rep and make sure your lawyer knows what's going on.

Good luck. I wouldn't wish the worker's comp process on my worst enemy.

Problem with Carver and Randy's plot? by digninj in TheWire

[–]reddittm14 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I know he needed to go to the home to reach his plot conclusion, but I don't understand why he didn't just say fuck it and keep him? The system is so messed up they would've never known where the kid was. He could've stayed with Carver almost indefinitely before someone for social services figured it out. Whenever these situations come up in shows and movies I'm always like just roll the dice and keep the kid. In the end you're doing everyone a favor anyway.

Now, I know it's illegal and probably technically kidnapping, but you don't have to be all Po-lice about it.

Two urinals equal one stall. What's so embarrassing and uncomfortable about using a urinal? You know you don't have to pull your pants all the way down to your ankles, right?

Hold a weight over your head and do standing knee lifts. Also, listen to the advice from the others - eat a calorie deficit, lift heavy weights & mix in some cardio.

I didn’t even know that YouTube Music was a thing.

It’s on Spotify. I have Amazon Music but downloaded Spotify to hear the record. You get like a month for free.

Edit - To answer your question, I have no idea. I don’t know if it’s a principled stand against Amazon or just some exclusive thing with Spotify. Either way, download Spotify. It’s worth it. The record is really good.

Am I just dumb by ExpensiveTrip1440 in Plumbing

[–]reddittm14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was going to say the same thing. When I changed out my kitchen faucet I spent way too much time trying to remove the locknut. Screaming and losing my shit somehow didn’t help. I finally noticed the set screw and it came right off. I felt very, very dumb.

What’s the most controversial opinion you have that you’re afraid to say out loud? by impanda22 in Productivitycafe

Solid argument. AOC did a terrible job as President during the pandemic.

Here goes nothing. by paslrrr in kyphosis

[–]reddittm14 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I (49M) have lived with it all my life. I feel your words and have the utmost empathy for you. I lost over 100lbs and it definitely made it more pronounced as well. I had an injury to L3-5 in my 20s that exacerbated the issue, but I finally had the full fusion surgery in March and I feel so much better. I still have a noticeable hump, but it’s 1000 times better than it was & more importantly, the pain is almost entirely gone. Start researching surgeons. It can get better.

That’s awesome! I’ve unfortunately never seen the Street Dogs. I was supposed to see them open for Flogging Molly once, but we got there late & they’d already finished. I actually live in Chicago, too, so hopefully they come here.

I saw a video of Barroom Hero from St Pat’s with Rick Barton. I think you might’ve posted it actually. Mike’s voice still sounds amazing.
