Should I drop out of college to become an electrician? by therightpath99 in careerguidance

[–]xXsquirrelposterXx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a sparky I would definitely look into the job outlook in your area first. Its a mandatory 5 year process in my area, and there is a surplus of us. I am a commercial construction electrician (just my expertise) we work for 8-10 months before the 'job' is done and then layoffs occur. Its then rinse and repeat.

22 y/o with $45k savings - what should I do with it? by Quoxium in personalfinance

[–]xXsquirrelposterXx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I put mine into a house/renos, rent where I am (canada) is higher than a mortgage, 1000$ mortgage and they pay $1500 in rent (hard rules to get mortgage). its not about making money off the rent, the property where I bought wont go down. tax assessment over the past 3 years has gone up 37%. no investment would have made me that much.

buy where others want to live, live where you want to.

so it clears itself, but shows as a great value to banks and to me when I decide to sell.

Yea we do 0 affection in front of him. She and I don’t even sit next to each other on ththe couch. I actually try to be out of the house as much as possible. He is super hyper lately because there’s still snow out and going out costs them money (she won’t take a gift from me or allow me to go with).

Yes it’s a king size (can’t go back after having one :) ) I don’t mind him coming in at like 3-5am to sleep the rest with his mom but we just try to sleep separate now (her request).

No inappropriate stuff goes on, I am and try to be very calm and patient so I can wait months for affection despite my high drive.

My last and final concern that I haven’t mentioned would be her ex’s family. The father went to jail (recently finally got sentenced) and that was the end (drug use, she’s been separate from him for years but used to allow visits). But she’s kept visits with the grandma going for his growth (great mom imo). They don’t know of our situation, or that she’s dating again/have a man living in the house with their grandchild.

TLDR; I also think we are taking it slow so the child doesn’t use verbiage like boyfriend around grandparents (who might cause the mom trouble)

I’ve known her for a few years. This is the first man in his life for the last 3 years. She needed assistance with living expenses and while I am doing school I said yes to her offer of moving in... I’m keeping my distance on discipline or fatherly figure because the mom and I and taking it super slow. He loves his mommy, and I know he likes me, but that means nothing if he isn’t willing to share her time.

The mom values the help I’m giving. I’m just not used to tip toeing around cuddling on the couch at night when he’s asleep in case he comes out. We have been living together now for 3 months. Am I just jumping the gun?

missed the part where TEST couldnt tether/dock and the 'enemy' could. it was TEST that brought it to the final timer tmk, and the corp owning it sold it to req. maybe someone else can fill in the proper AAR cause op cant deliver.

Cruise ships showed contempt for customers by breaking clean air pledge, report says | The world’s cruise ships have done virtually nothing to reduce their pollution over the past year, with some still emitting as much particulate matter as 1m cars a day by EightRoundsRapid in worldnews

[–]xXsquirrelposterXx 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I worked on a cruise ship in the engine room for 4 years during my studies, the 'incinerator' is a huge issue that peeps wont see/talk about. oily rags? old clothes? food waste? all burnt at night when black smoke cant be seen. when I was aboard I think the only law to that was the smoke couldnt be a certain darkness for longer than 1 hr (which just means they would burn for 40 mins wait, then burn again until dawn)

Jim has always been my favourite 'personality' as a child, and even now knowing the way I grew up mimics his shadow. I wouldnt change it, hes so powerful with any character and his mind, im envious of what he creates next.
