QuarterSwede@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Anybody getting an absolute ONSLAUGHT of spam calls?7·13 days agoNope. But I have my info stripped from the internet weekly and are on the do not call registries. I get spam from time to time of course but haven’t had any lately at all. I get FAR less than my wife. I also don’t sign up for crap to get discounts like she does.
Good list. It also keeps the number of WiFi devices on your network down. Can be an issue with some WiFi routers that have a low cap.
Calm down tiger, who’s judging here? Just stating facts. I drink alcohol from time to time but I also realize I feel better when I don’t regularly.
Ah, I see you have a Samsung refrigerator.
TSA Precheck. Yes, it’s borderline extortion but it really is a LOT faster and more stress free at major hubs.
Just keep in mind that Colorado isn’t a state that voted for him.
For me it was finding joy in work.
I, partly, became a manager to help others develop. I’ve been fortunate and worked for a few companies that believe the company can’t be at its best unless we’re training others to do our roles, train up mentality. I found that it’s a major kick to see someone succeed in something they never thought they could achieve.
I’ve helped a guy making decent money, make a lot more, raise his credit substantially, and fulfill the dream of owning a home. That’s something he never thought he’d be able to do. He was stuck in the mentality of born poor, die poor. He just needed someone to show him how our capitalist systems work and how to take advantage of that. Not only is he making more money but he’s happier and therefore more productive and does better quality work. No other sense of accomplishment has come close for me than directly affecting others lives. It’s really something.
And echoing what others’ have said, you do build endurance to the hours and grind the more you do it. I can basically work all day and not feel tired until I finally relax. I’m fortunate enough to have a job that has shorter days to balance the longer and I’m not stuck in an office all day (which I HATE). Not all jobs are office only / physical labor only. The great thing about COVID is that it forced remote work and a lot more flexibility in a lot of industries. I’m more of a hybrid work is best for me person.
It also helps to build a solid daily, weekly, monthly routine or “battle rhythm” as the military puts it. This helps break up the monotony of the days while keeping you on track to succeed. Consistency is the major thing that separates those that accomplish their goals and those that don’t.
Go on a sugar detox for 30 days just by cutting out sugary drinks like soda or sweet tea. When you go back to drinking it you’ll be chocked at how sweet it tastes now. You’ve just become desensitized to the 38-45g of sugar in a 12oz. The major benefit is you just feel better. Sugar is totally a drug.
QuarterSwede@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•If you could move anywhere to minimize the impact on you of the worldwide rise of fascism...5·1 month agoI’ve got a bug out zone extremely close to a bordering country that’s self sufficient. Staying put unless things get wildly out of hand. We could probably house another 2 families if needed.
Ya GOT THAT!?
Army of Darkness. I mean it’s freaking Bruce Campbell. Kiss the king baby.
Samsonite! I was way off.
QuarterSwede@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What are the best tech news websites in your opinion?8·1 month agoTom’s hardware is still good.
Technically that’s a Drain tech. A plumber will almost certainly tell you they don’t unclog drains (even though there is GREAT money in it, since no one wants to do it themselves, but will complain about the price anyway).
There’s a lot of different pay plans out there. No idea what roto rooter is paying their techs these days.
Pay is great in my opinion for apprentices but the hours are tough. You will definitely learn a shit load quickly if you pay attention, ask questions, and find a company/lead that doesn’t treat you like shit.
Depends on your definition. It’s called a play on words.
