Heh, I applied for a substitute position a little while ago.
Called back. I’m a MMJ patient, and only have a high school diploma, and no teaching skills or experience.
They were fine with that. Obviously, don’t bring drugs on campus, but if its just residual in my system its fine with them.
Because pedophilia still exists.
And a 16 year old boy will say yes to pretty much anything sexual, hence why this woman exploited a minor nah, not sugar coating. This woman used a position of authority to rape a child.
No kids. Just alcoholics for relatives. Yes. Being able to track their location during a bender would be great, simply for some damage control.
That was before we changed states to live the fuck alone, just man and wife ~and three pitbulls, four cats, a bunny, and now three pekin ducks~
No no, I get it.
I do my best not to bother with form.
I just make shit work.
If you wanna pretty up my scripts for some sort of distribution, go for it.
But I’m done with it after that. That’s the companies problem now.
That would take paperwork. It could be traced back to his orange ass.
Sending a buncha “alpha” male types in masks to kidnap people and “deport” them is much easier.
Trump used Stochastic Terrorism! Sadly, its super effective.
Had something similar, but for a GPU. Also corsair.
Yeah, the tubing on the AIO failed and fried the GPU. There did not appear to be any external damage to the tubing. Just… dripped out over the years. Good bye 2080 TI, you served me well during the pandemic and the scalping of GPUs.
I went back to air cooling after that, just with a lot more focus (from me) on airflow, orientation, etc.
Plus, the high end air cooling stuff is good. Like, in the 90s (decade) we dreamed of cooling that good with air, and then water cooling came along. I just never cared for the concept of water running inside my electronics.
Now if I could get that super expensive crap from 3M that isn’t conductive and has similar thermal capacities to water, and run that through a water cooling system, I’d be fine with it. Its just prohibitively expensive.
At a LAN party (yes I’m that old) a dude came in with a box fan ziptied to the side, like it was a case side.
I didn’t think to ask about orientation though. As in, push or pull for airflow.
Whatever, it worked for him.
I joked about blood on my soundcard at an IT job.
Because yes, I managed to cut myself installing a sound card.
The younger guys were just like, “Sound card?”
Unless you really need something specific, the stuff built into mobos is fine these days.
From my experience, anyone that works with doctors despise them, so that road certainly goes both ways.
Also, from my experience, they tend to love when you pick up the phone at 4am, remote into their machine, and just fix their problem so they can get back to work.
Day shift people suck anyways.
Before moving, there was a Goth club called The Church.
That outfit would, from what I’ve heard, be far too formal and restrained.
Apparently, and this was coming from a platonic female friend, anal is like shaking hands there so what do I know. I never had the urge to drive from North Fort Worth to Downtown Dallas to drink, and then turn around and drive back after drinking and possibly making stupid choices.
I have two types, natural redheads, and goth chicks.
Don’t be self conscious, be self aware .
If your wedding tackle has shifted at all during your swim, may be try to get out away from the others a bit, not a creepy amount, but like… Be on one end of the group, turn away slightly when transitioning from water to land, place your hands “casually” in a way to cover yourself without drawing attention, all sorts of little tricks you’ll internalize before you know it, but it starts with being self aware.
Yeah, and if you get out of the water and have a “flattering” outline in your shorts, its suddenly becomes a much larger issue being the only adult male, and with children around… eesh.
I worked in retail for a decade, and have been in IT for past 12 years. Mostly help desk. Mostly medical.
The advanced degrees these people have is astounding, but the lack of common sense is terrifying.
Like, these people are cutting into other people to fix shit? They can’t tie their own shoes, and the concept of a power button on a computer is too much.
This is the same person. Hopefully he has retired or died by now, cause those were his only real choices at that age.
Seriously, his assistant tied his shoes for him. She probably had advanced degrees of her own. And she had to tie an old man’s shoes on the daily.
Maybe there something to have such a laser focus like medicine specialties really does rob people of their common sense.
Tie? Shoe? No, but that artery is about to retract or some shit.
I mean, I don’t know if I’d still be interested in women after being a vampire that long, but I’d like to think so.
Go to a country with lax sex laws (or at least enforcement), set up a bordello and feed on the workers while they sleep off their necessary highs for doing sex work for a horrible human (vampire) being.
Plus, under the rules I’m fixating on mentally, drinking the blood of someone who is high will get the vampire high, and after hundreds of years plus immortality, I’m gonna get high at some point lol.
(Rules referenced: Old World of Darkness, VTM, etc)
WD-40 is not a lubricant, it can do it short term, but makes things worse long term.
WD-40 literally stands for Water Displacement - Formula 40.
Its to keep mechanical components hydrophobic so they don’t rust or otherwise degrade due to the presence of water.
For locks and keyways, you want powdered graphite as a lubricant. I keep a small tube (puffer style) in my pick kit if needed.
Or slightly more expensive, if legal in your area, are actual locksmith tools.
I have a pick set I busted out this morning to unlock a pad lock on our circuit breaker (outside for some stupid reason, locked because its a new development and we had construction workers turn the house off while me and the wife were the only people on our respective jobs working the shift remotely)
We need power to run desktops. A UPS is handy, but its a bandaid to shut down correctly until power is restored fully.
You don’t get dependencies in real life like that.
You work 10 years in an industry and try to get a promotion? That may be a dependency issue.
I can’t. Literally can’t.
I will not fall asleep unless I spend some time unwinding first. Preferably alone.
No, not a masturbation reference, but I just need some quiet and not have to remember every little social rule that no one ever explained to any extent, at least to me, seems like others have an idea though.
Its a time to let go of social anxiety build up.
Coworkers make the anxiety worse, friends too, my wife as well. It builds up and I need a couple hours by myself to let that fade before I have a chance of sleeping, even with my meds, some of which are prescribed simply to knock my ass out.
Then again, as a teenager, I stayed up 9 days straight before a doctor snowed me and I crashed. No, it wasn’t some attempt, it was straight insomnia - it sucked tremendously. Also, no, not coke, being “snowed” on an EEG (brain waves) means the medication has caused such a response in the brain, you’re just getting the EEG equivalent to static on an untuned channel, so I have issues with sleep, and have since childhood.
10pm seems late, lol.
Then again, my social circle would get off work, usually staggered by a few hours as people got off.
Then we’d head to the nearby watering hole and join in the festivities that were ongoing from people who opened lol.
Shop doors were shut by 8pm, give the floor a quick pass to clean up any major debris left over from the day (IE: run the push broom over all floors, scoop up, and dump) and then just making sure that a few things were stocked sufficiently for the morning. Like commonly used oils for oil changes.
Now… well,
Bed time is 9pm. I’m not currently working, but want to maintain a reasonable day shift for when I find work. I prefer overnight, but that doesn’t seem to be an option where I moved.
Wife gets up, I get up, and start with applying for jobs and housework. Weekends mean she is working 7a to 7p, medical work, so standard. So we’re up by 6:30 to get some food/caffeine in us before she works - though, if neither of us are hungry, I’ll acquire any caffeine needed and cook later. I’m not cooking at 6:30am. Period. I will burn myself, one of the animals, or my wife, or the house down so… no, I need caffeine first, lol.
I spent a year working at an elementary school, in an IT capacity.
I was at a fairly wealthy district, but Texas “Robin Hood Laws” distributed a lot of their taxable wealth to poorer districts and such.
That being said, all the kids that went there for the most part had rich parents.
So the stay at home moms always organized fund raisers. Bake sales, that kinda crap.
And the rich kids, or any parents who stopped in, bought treats.
I mean, it worked… but not without a lot of disposable income at home.
