Turtle Wax, PR, Pics; Tradie Drama

Keeping the media up top for those who TLR'd. You're missing out on a misc story nonetheless.










Paying my respects to the site that kept me lifting. I hit a PR in weighted chins. I waxed my Dad's car. I've lost the fire for lifting; still working out but I haven't made progress in a few months. Life at my tradie job is fine. Kinda wish the boss would speak to me and help me get my raise sooner than later. I called him one day and three weeks later wrote him a nice business letter. A lot of the guys at my place complain about not making enough, time stealing, and talking down on this low voltage systems job. Some kid talking down about guys in my company making $27-$5 an hour; k if you're Musk, Jobs, Gates, or someone that actually had a novel invention for the world but most of us normal people that's an impressive wage. Kid has no perspective on how the world works it seems.

A teenager, the same kid, who got shoe'd in to this job by his Dad tried to lead me on this dummy simple portables job and meanwhile he understands this electrical crap less than I do. He was working the warehouse sorting boxes of wire, does a couple jobs in the summer all a sudden he turns eighteen he's on his way to becoming a Journeyman. I read the theory books and accept my criticism, even when it hurts. Teenager thinks he knows it all, spend half the day on his phone and does inconsiderate things like cut two conductors off a four conductors cable because he derp'd and thought he was making the end of line when it was already established.

Bruh, why use four conductors if you're didn't need an ingoing and outgoing data line for an additional fire alarm device for a building that was already wired? That job made me so mad. I was happy to help wire a larger school but not happy to have some smartass kid assert their lack of knowledge onto someone five years their senior. Meanwhile Kid gnaws the jackets off cables when he mounts celing devices coz he addresses the wire in the square box like a jackass and doesn't gently put device on.

Kid never had to work at a carwash or a gas station making $8/hr before. Kid's good people's but Kid needs to be humiliated in order grow into a better person. Kid says he wants to be an elevator tech; elevator tech ain't gonna hire a Kid if he gets fired from a fire alarm company for being on his phone and not critically thinking about his work.

Was it the 100lb Chin standard, the 20+%bodyfat, the shorts and no shirt, the squat rack setup, or all the above? I'm not gonna pretend like I didn't have a Basin Jaha phase in my life but it wasn't I ln the last three months. These days I'm more concerned with getting promoted and being happy; I ought to cut again after the summer when passing out from heat exhaustion is no longer an illegitimate excuse.

Worst part is that I have to live with that body too. Sure I try real hard to cut from time to time and then I end up eating it back up. I have willpower but no discipline.

you just described my bodylol. I haven't pursued women anymore women since I was fired from a Walgreens a couple years ago. I not consistently saving money and I still live with my parents. As far as my dad is, I still get a lot of compliment at work. I'm still the super buff fire alarms/camera installer helper person. Unfortunately that means I get assigned to dig and pull a lot of heavier cable runs.

I have to work on myself before I have something to offer in a relationship; not my physique 'coz there's no fixing that :P

Don’t worry about the kid at work. Every job has at least one person that sucks and nobody likes.
