No reason to be an ass. Just sharing the collective misery. I spray truck bedliners in a spray booth that’s around 130 degrees, while wearing a spray suit, full face mask, with ~100+ degree bedliner floating around the booth while you texture. The big shop at the dealer ship read 116 at 11am this today, didn’t look before I left.

Yup, being an ass. :P

Damn, don't envy that! The little I do spray, I wear a full tyvek suit, so can relate.

One time we were doing a 14hr at Daytona...in June. Ugh, as much fun as it is racing, it gets brutal down here. I got in the car after being dressed in a 3 layer suit and had a Cool Shirt underneath. We have to have face shield down and be fully dressed while strapping in the car (plus the time you are waiting for the car to come in), and all power has to be cut to the car, I nearly passed out while waiting to be able to turn the shirt on. It's actually less offensive having the suit without the shirt, but WOW does that ice water make a huge difference once racing. One of the guys used his FitBit during his session and for 2 hours straight, his heartbeat didn't drop much below 160bpm.

Buddy of mine just got a new A/C unit for his house. Brought the old one here, plan on installing it (2.5 ton). My house is also due, so going to bring that one as well (2ton, upgrading to 3.5). Between the two I am hoping to keep the humidity down at least - not so much worried about the temp. The shop is 90' long and only has a door at one end, so the back gets ridiculous this time of year.

Well, I really feel like a homeowner now. Was using the weedeater on the brick patio (needs a lot of work) and it shot a 2 inch piece of stick at my back door and shattered the glass Oh well, we had been wanting a sliding door anyways, so this was our chance to get one.

I feel your pain. This happened to me once before too but it was dog shit, not a stick and the glass didn't shatter.

I was re-screening my patio years ago, and just got a new Boxer puppy. Well, she ran straight through the 12'x4' lower section I was on the last couple inches of rolling. Got so pissed, I threw the screen roller and it went straight through the bathroom window and gouged the brand new solid core raised panel door I installed just a few weeks prior. Luckily it wasn't stained yet, but man, what a face-palm moment. Joys of home ownership. :/ Needless to say, the lower portions of the screen were lined with lattice work after that lol.

You can purchase a piece of tempered glass and install it yourself if you are handy. My dad had a pool table in his second dining room and a rogue cue went through it when he was breaking. Stright through the slider it went. IIRC the glass was less than $100 from a frame-less shower door joint.

I can relate! Although what's worse for me is having to help the next guy strap in after doing two hours and unhooking from the CoolShirt feed when I need it the most.

Who's going to the 24 at VIR next month?

Ugh, you guys have twisted my rubber arm! ;)

Lol this is funny. I semi-relate to this story, now that I’m in my late 20’s I find myself getting hit on by much older woman, AKA cougars. It’s a pretty awkward situation as I get bashful and don’t have the balls to reject them immediately.

The cherry on top is that the majority of these experiences happen while I’m with my GF, however, conveniently she’ll be in the restroom. FML. It’s always fun watching your girl walk back to you and notice there’s an additional ‘companion’ in our midst. Thankfully she has bigger balls than I do and can make them scat immediately as she says “Hi”. Honestly all these situations crack me up, and thankfully my GF understands it’s not my fault that I’m a huge bag of eye candy.

So trueee.


I'm 26 now, and I've noticed the same shit.


I was at a bar once and a wild pack of cougars was walking by the patio. One of them yelled "I want that one" as she pointed at me, followed by her friend giving herself "hand goggles" and pressing them up against the glass going "yyyyyyyyyEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH HH"

Do single women in their 50s just have the same fuckboy mentality as 21 y/o?

[LowR3V'in]

Same mentality as in DESPERATE AF?
yes. 50's is sorta up there probably a reason why those women have been divorced multiple times.

ftfy

I have read some seriously fahcked recounts form AMA's with male strippers on reddit about how much more insane older women are at strip clubs and shit. Some true lord of the flies type pack frenzy stuff

...now I feel like I have to clarify: was desperate to earn some cash in college, looking into selling my soul to pay for motorcycle stuff

Honestly, it would've been easy and cheap to replace, but we don't like our current setup anyways. It's like french doors, but only one insert opens and it's from the outside edge. I'm sure the whole thing was probably a good 1500 when new though. We already bought a slider that night, though. Just need to install it.

about 6 or 7 years ago, I had an overnight in nashville with a flight attendant(chick) and first officer(also a chick) that were both party girls. my girlfriend at the time(now my wife) was along for the ride and hanging out with us on this particular awesome overnight. we went downtown to watch some live country music and have a few beers.....well...because it was fucking Nashville. the 4 of us were sitting in this random bar having drinks and watching the band play. after about 40 minutes or so, the waitress comes over and says that the table over yonder just bought us a round of drinks..... ok.....?

well, this group of 4 (two chicks and two guys) comes over and says that they were passengers on our flight from Newark earlier in the day. they pull up a table and some chairs and proceed to hang out with us. they are more or less pretty cool so it was not a big deal.

about and hour passes and my girlfriend goes to the potty. one of the chicks from this other group asks me if I want to dance. seems harmless, so I agree. as we are out on the dance floor, she sticks her tounge in my ear and whispers to me that I make her pussy wet.....wow! she was actually a pretty decent looking middle aged woman with a really nice bod. I've honestly never had anyone tell me that one before....!!

I have no idea if she wanted a 3 way, a 4 way, a 6 way or who knows what. about this time, my girl came came back to the table from the bathroom. we left my two co-workers in the bar and got the hell out of there. went back to the company provided hotel and proceeded to mess up the sheets.

the next day, we resumed our trip flying off to who knows where. I mentioned to my first officer and flight attendant what this chick had told me the day before on the dance floor. oddly they were not surprised. they said that she told them that she said that to me after we left. wtf? who says shit like that? weird as hell I believe. however, I suppose that if I happened to be single at the time, she probably would have wound up in my hotel room that night.

[MrBurgundy]

The thirst is real with middle aged women..

[2mAn]

I'll never forget this not-so Cougar aged Cougar... I was around 20 working at a credit union. She was a small business owner who ran a small yoga studio, I felt the magnetism everytime she came in, we would subtly flirt everytime she was there...

I saw her one time when I was stoned out of my mind at the Safeway at like 10pm and she was there with her hubby... I dont think he quite appreciated the flirting that day and I dont think I saw her after that day... bummer

Spent the last few days at a professional conference and now I have a job offer from someone I met at the conference, and I think I'm going to take it.

Any of you guys ever been 'poached'? I'm curious to hear what the best way to go about leaving my current job without burning bridges since all of this unfolded while I was traveling and selling for my current employer.
