Oh yeah, it makes the jobs suck much worse. But the pay is still nice. Or at least that’s what I tell myself whenever I find myself working in a location where the dewpoint is getting concerningly close to body temp.

Most bar ice machines are full of snot like microbial jelly. Even if the ice machine is properly deep cleaned it will be back to some extent within only a few weeks.

In reality it’s harmless (if the machine is regularly and properly cleaned) because it’s mostly just yeast colonies caused by yeast being flung into the air from the beer. Yeast loves ice machines for some reason and grows very quick. Assuming the ice machine is properly cleaned regularly and not subject to overly filthy conditions then there shouldn’t be anything actually concerning growing in there. But now you are forever cursed with the knowledge that any ice you get in a bar likely came from a machine full of biological slime.

Also the issue can be mostly mitigated by built in air sterilization units or completely prevented by feeding the machine with ozonated water, but I’ve never met a bar owner willing to pay for those options.

HVAC is booming right now. That’s about the only bright side of the planet getting hotter.

You never know. My dad has been a life long handyman but he also has MS. His body still works pretty damn well considering his age but that’s only until he gets too warm and his legs suddenly stop responding. He can still do most of the things he used to do just only in short stints. However, prolonged physical exertion leaves him unable to walk.

There are a lot of handicapped people who will look perfectly fine to the average person but may have a limited ability to remain fully physically abled for more that short periods of time.

Honestly just been kinda numb for a long time now. It’s going to suck when my brain actually starts processing things again, but, for now, I’m a human robot level of functional.

Flesh Interaction is the name of my garage band.

Or enemies. I did also meet a actual piece of human garbage incel that way. DnD groups always seem to be either the most wonderful progressive people you’ll ever meet or the most vile human beings on the face of the planet. It’s kinda weird how little middle ground there is.

Literally same. I only have my current friend group because someone I used to work with practically dragged me to a DND game.

Anyone to the left of me is naive and everyone to the right of me is a fascist. What’s so hard to understand?

Not to defend the guy but when I got my wisdom teeth removed they wouldn’t let me walk. They said it was a liability thing that any time they discharged a patient who received any amount of anesthetic in the prior 24 hours they had to wheel the patient out in a wheelchair. So I had to sit in the chair until they got me out the hospital doors but after that they didn’t give a fuck what I did.

Textured for nobodies pleasure.

Where’s violet when you need her. I remember her posting about telling her boyfriend to not shower.

Protip, just tell them it’s a business number. I’ve done that twice and suddenly the number of spam calls I get dropped off a cliff.

I don’t even get woken at all.

Are you still sleeping?

Basically. We had previously driven the screw worm south of the darian gap and we had been keeping it there by continuously dropping sterile flys across the region to prevent them from breeding. But the mitigation measures were cut to save money so now we’re back to having screw worm in the US.

Are your feet AI generated?

Just set ANFOgetaboutit.

Damn that’s an expensive garrage cooler. Nice get. I hope it’s a conditioned garrage though. That cooler doesn’t like high or low ambient temps.

That’s way too mich effort spent on those morons. If they don’t have the money then I tell them leave and go back to what I was doing before. I am not about to spend any amount time entertaining someone who is trying to rip me off. I don’t even care if they somehow “find” the rest of the money. I’m done dealing with them. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

I remember one time I was at a large industrial site working on a cabinet cooler (dedicated air conditioning for large electrical cabinets) on a motor drive cabinet which was was running 480V 3 phase with feeder wires the size of my thumb when their safety guy walked by and saw me poking at the cooler fan with a screwdriver. The conversation went something like this.

Safety guy looking rather concerned: “What are you doing?”

Me: “Cabinet is getting warm because the cooler quit. The fan motor isn’t running so I’m trying to give it a bump start with a screwdriver to see if the motor is siezed. Gotta do it this way because otherwise I have to pull the whole cooler off the cabinet to access it properly.”

Safety: “You know those wires there are 480V right?”

Me: “Yup.”

Safety: “You know those will kill you if you touch them right?”

Me: “That’s why I’m not touching them.”
