CSB3: Riceburner Excited To Announce His New Prince Albert After Paying $3 To Jay For The Procedure

Not so csb......


Got a phone call last night. One of my friends and fellow electrician was in a work related accident yesterday and passed away.....

Don't have much details, but he was pulling some 15kv cable from a vault to an underground switch on Murray State University property when he made contact with the (supposed to be de-energized) switch that had 13.8kv on it.


With the amount of fatalities in this trade (especially the ones close to me) I am starting to think that a career change at 40 might not be that bad after all.......

Sorry to hear about that

With electrical experience, I would imagine you can pick up adjacent lines of work without too much issue, that might be a little less dangerous. How's residential electrical, in terms of safety? Lower voltage, (likely/hopefully) simpler wiring. Buddy of mine is a multicraft and has been looking at options for when he's a bit older, trades aren't easy.

I'm FOA fiber certified also. Looking into posibaly swapping full time into a fiber technician position. Idk, just kinda still processing things now. Lost my brother to an electrical accident in 2013. 2 other buddies since then, now this. I love my job, but I love my family and my health more.

the trades can kill you. It only takes one unattended second/oops/shortcut.

Edit: we get paid well but it takes time to get there and as mentioned it's not easy on the body. Dangerous jobs often have a risk/reward factor built into the pay. 2 years this week to my retirement

I don't care at all if dudes want to put on a dress and act like girls, hell I invited gtifan to sleep on my couch. But a dude competing in women's boxing...in the damn Olympics then beating the shit out of a woman? Nah fam nah

 

[riceburner]

its hard not to draw the line there. maybe it should be treated like an all gender bathroom and just call it 'boxing', idk.

yeah thats the point.

shes not a dude. born a woman, always a woman, just has a condition where she devs way more testosterone than the typical woman. shes from algeria, a muslim country under sharia law, they'd kill a trans person, not have them represent the country at the olympics lol

intersex =/= transgender
