    Compared to McDonalds that has 15 people of which 2 are working. I worked at McDonalds in high school. On Sundays it was me and manager. She ran the front and I ran the back and cooked all the food. We didn't have a drive thru. Wasn't bad. Didn't have to put up with the other idiots and stuff...

    I guess I just don't unerstand. I back out of being best man at a wedding for a good friend because I didn't want to put up with all the shit his future wife was dreaming up. Told them I wasn't sure if I could make it because something else might come up. Told them I couldn't commit 100% till a...

    From what I read people in other areas of the country pay massive amounts per kilowatt. I lived in the south all my life and now TX. I have a 3200 sq. ft. house currently and for a good portion of those years I worked at home so someone was home all the time and I never once in my life had a...

    I guess the phrase "I'm busy" is foreign to you? I get lots of wedding invitations that I don't attend. The world doesn't end. I get them to people I don't even know that are kids of people I do business with. I get them to some very close friends that I would never attend a wedding they throw...

    If you really don't want to wear what they request, don't go. It's pretty simple. Stop making it difficult. It's their day. If you don't like it, stay home.

    I work in a suburb of San Antonio. Someone picks up breakfast tacos a coule of days a week for the office. Every time it's from Taco Cabana. They think I'm Mr. stuck up but JFC. It would be like living in Louisiana and getting Popeyes to get the local flavor.

    If someone goes thru the trouble of having a black tie wedding someone there is going to notice and/or bitch about it if you're not 100% up to speed on "black tie".

    I interviewed several people this week. Everything from clerical, someone to help our IT guy, engineering related etc...If I hear the phrase "I'm a hard worker" one more time. One guy got pissy when I said "Good, it's expected of you and if you're not - you're gone". Apparently "I'm a hard...

    The "Shit I just bought" thread

    None of the "drone" flyers are covered by insurance unless it's on their property and their homeowners covers it. The AMA insurance requires you to fly at an AMA sanctioned field (or your own property, which is where I fly 75% of the time) and part of the restriction is no beyond visual range...

    I've always just cooked them in a cheap egg poacher. Pretty sure I paid less than $20 for it.

    So I had poached eggs for breakfast. Anyone else enjoy poached eggs? The few times I've mentioned it to people they act like it's super exotic way to fix an egg. It's easier than scrambling an egg to me. Put water in bottom of pan, put the cups in, break eggs in cup. Wait a few minutes and then eat.

    Bigger planes fly better/easier than smaller ones. The saying is larger planes fly, smaller planes flit. They don't get buffeted by wind as much and are easier to see and don't "flit" around and not as touchy. Larger planes within eason are cheaper to fly if you fly much now since they use...

    AMA membership provides $1 million insurance per flyer and a LOT more for flying at an AMA affiliated club/field which get their own insurance.

    Europe has the lock down on "huge" RC planes. Again the AMA you are limited to 55 lbs. without a sepcial waiver. In the UK the sky is the limit and you often see 70% planes at some of their big gatherings. 4 engine turbines in a scale airliner etc... I try to make it to the Joe Nall...

    It's going on a 42% aerobatic plane. Jets are another ball game entirely. They require a special waiver from the AMA (academy of model aeronautics) to fly. You don't need to be a member of AMA but they provide the insurance and it can add up fast if you crash a tubine into someone or start a...

    Nope, hobbies and money don't mix. That's why I delted it at a mispost. Had an extra tab open for some reason. Which is a good thing considering the west coast "slow down" at the ports have shuttered a few businesses related to it already and those open have almost zero stock.

    Didn't realise they weren't everywhere. Of course I'm from a state that the drinking age was 18 until the federal government threatened to cut off highway funding. We also had beer vending machines (like a coke machine with beer) in public places up until just a few years ago.

    Good luck with that, honest discussion as long you discuss what we want and how we want it. As someone who has looked at Reddit maybe a half dozen times all this talk of money is funny. You would think with that much money floating around they could have come up with a better format.
