you ever wondered how do giant cranes suddenly get built overnight and you never notice them appearing until they're in place?
anyway making a new general for work in here, thread for all work Know-how, share all the unkown skills you know that are related to your work but most people don't know about/could use knowing
labour intensive work (how to hammer a nail, how to screw a bolt), shitty office work (how to multitask, how to avoid choking your boss, how to spread rumors about a cunt from Human Resources), food work (what we put in your sandwich behind the kitchen, how to mop the floor efficently, how to built tolerance against the smell of bathrooms) trades or STEM (how to argue online your profession is the best using mental gymansium) even sex work (how to suck cocks, how to fuck people in the ass, what to do when he's a shy virgin and he's annoying)
>inb4 i'm neet anti-worker
then share with us what you do to feel the best, how to tie a blanket around your shoulder like the pepe neet, how to get high at home no money paid, how to forge a katana, how to speedrun a game or a book, how to decorate your house in a way that don't make you feel like a miserable wagie
i didn't know that some screwdrivers had hexagonal handles for that, this is very cool
>>194Also it seems the top-paying trades are: roofing,HVAC "altitude" installer, high-rise tree chainsaw cut (I don't know the english term. the thing were you climb a tree with a harness to chop down the branches), and working in an Auto factory.
Aero-space mechanic, and underwater welder\ underwater chainsaw use are beyond my skills\pay-range, but I mention them because they pay GOAT among blue-collar jobs.
>>196>Aero-space mechanic,You can get into it. I know a couple guys that do that for a living, but it seems you're going to have to do a lot of traveling for work depending.
>Laborwave
That genre's already got a name its called industrial
>cranes
they're built modular and mostly preassembled, only thing that needs site work is a foundation (which happens quietly and relatively quickly with how fast concrete can be made to set)
it's actually beautiful, we haven't done modular construction like this for far too long.
>>192>how to tie a blanket around your shoulder like the pepe neetI tie it behind my neck like you would a dinner napkin
>how to decorate your house in a way that don't make you feel like a miserable wagieBy making many paper cranes putting them everywhere. One hundred paper cranes and I can make a tenth of a wish
>>192>>198>>200ARE there people whom, unironically like industrialization? as in; rejecting ruralism, agrarianism, pastoralism? Who do they LIVE with themselves, knowing they advocate factories, steel mills, car factories, extraction of natural resources? airports, shopping malls, project development, portuary operations??
They are urbanite yuppies!! pampered anti-tiny-town nightclub-going whoremongers!! POSH HOOD RATS
>>202Usually their main argument for industrialisation isn't imporoving lives but imperialism for the sake of improving lives
>well the locals don't know the benefits of their own land, it's natural progression to introduce them to industrial might to turn their barren wasteland into paradise of production, if only you commies comprehend without western factories you won't see progrss in Palestine/injun lands before setting/African villages/north korea, they all need western style industrialization m'kay? >>202>>203the level of complete and utter ignorance to the basics of dialectical materialism on display here goddamn
>>205Educate us then anarcho-nihhilist, not just half insults, teach us.
>>204How are you going to get clothing? Tools? Pay taxes? Because you arent going to make enough money by selling surplus potatoes.
>>208Yeah i hear you
>ClothesUsually i sew stuff from the fly market so this shouldn't be a problem. Never bought a clothing piece over 20 bucks if we disregard backbags
>ToolsYeah you're right, tools arent cheap and unless you want to start smelting the basic hand tools in your backyard like a maoist farmer. You'll need more bucks before you become self reliant and making it off of potato extras isn't enough.
>Pay taxes?If you're an American i might envy you for this, you guys complain and whine and meme about yoshi the tax fraudster when your tax rate is ever above 10%, where i am the tax can reach 40 and people don't complain. Bitches
I got a new manager and he's making everyone change how they stock.
Normally, since we're overnight stockers, everyone gets their aisle and their freight, then they stock and make it look pretty by morning, then we all go home.
Now, we have to work off the pallet, and only one pallet at a time. This leads to massive traffic for pallet jacks, and no down stacking to plan your freight. You just have to grab a box and go to where it belongs and stock the shelf.
<Only touch each box once
It took 4 of the fastest stockers 50% longer to finish the frozen aisles because each pallet is already sort of organized, so instead of going to different aisle, everyone was crowding around one area getting in each other's way and waiting to get into a door.
<I'm just trying to increase stocking efficiency.
Here's a list of things that will increase stocking efficiency
>Ready access to box cutters
>Ready access to scanners
>Ready access to water
>Ready access to carts, ladders, and (working) pallet jacks
>A functioning break room with microwaves from this century and silverware to improve morale
>Increased wages (or even a bonus for Christ sake)
God I hate Walmart
>>211Waow!1! $100 extra for working at shartmart for 20 years. Someexecutive wants to get luigi'd.
>>211so you only get the holiday bonus, if you started working there prior to 2001?
>>212Only real communist ITT.
More trains = More communism
>>217>It's only a small step from mass transit to communismThat is 100% true. You build enough trains you will become communist. In 2050 China will have built enough rail infrastructure that they will become communist.
>>211>20 dollarsLmao they're begging for a Luigi
>>220to keep the homeless population from getting diabetes
>>220the idea of free food just really grinds porky gears.
they rather throw it away than give it to homeless, or even sell it for 10 cents
Re-affirming our stance on the labor aristocracy
As has been confirmed via numerous of our polemic and on-the-ground practice and action, the Rural People's Party upholds the principle that the majority of the so-called 'working class' in the imperialist epicenter U.S.A. is a bought-off labor aristocracy, with a vested interest in supporting imperialism and glutting themselves on superprofits stolen through the imperialist exploitation of the Third World. This principle applies particularly to the oppressor nations within the imperialist epicenter U.S.A. We applaud the idea of the "death of the west" in the sense of an end to and the destruction of First World capitalism, imperialism and the dictatorship of the bourgeoisie and, as a militant communist party of the Juche type, we realize that all physical and mental effort should be applied within the imperialist epicenter U.S.A. for the "death of the west" operating inside the figurative "west." We attribute the Maoist Internationalist Movement as being the domestic originator of the correct position on the non-revolutionary status of the labor aristocracy.
We apply strict class analysis in tandem with on-the-ground practice and believe that revolution is possible inside North America only when operating on the principle of eschewing the myth of majority U.S.A. worker "exploitation" and dropping all apologetics to the labor aristocracy, bourgeois and petit-bourgeois and upholding class analysis with professional revolutionary effort. According to Kim Il-Sungism, each revolution for socialism and communism must be waged according to the material conditions in one's own country. Revolutionary potential exists in the imperialist epicenter U.S.A. within the lumpenproletariat, oppressed nations and with those coming from the labor aristocracy, bourgeois and petit-bourgeois elements who have betrayed their class privilege and become class traitors under democratic centralism and party life, which means actually betraying their own class privilege in the interest of establishing the Dictatorship of the Proletariat over persons of their own class origin (read: "class suicide.") Would-be revolutionaries following incorrect line need to drop the sick colonialist attitude of First World intellectuals leading the Third World revolutionaries, whether through fake "internationals" or proclaimed new currents and instead practice non-interference, consolidate our forces with self-reliance under militant communism of the Juche and Songun type and thus strike for the death of the west IN the west, plunging our hands into the waters of hegemonic U.S. imperialism and turning those waters to poison. Death to the bourgeois society! Up with the masses!

>>224say that you are out of town visiting your uncle and so you will not be able to make it.
>>224>>225This. Say you took a flight.
>>210I get taxed like 30% because I'm poor here
>>224I always say some fucked up shit when they ask me.
Last time they asked me I said I had an appointment. When they pressed I said real loud that I had to give a stool sample to figure out why I had chronic diarrhea
>>224everytime this happens one of my grandparents die
>>224Talk to my union lawyer.
>>192>that screwdriver factO_O
>>207>how are you suppost to aim the nail accuratly when you swing the hammer like this?you're not
labour bumpa
>>244Schooling is the same way
are forklifts good enough for this thread
>>245For once I agree, forcing children to wake up so early, not getting enough sleep, probably retards their development.
>>247And the forced micromanaged socialisation.
And the decreasing amount of outside playtime
>>246That depends on how we think of OSHA certification and regulations
bumping in good thread
>>250Doesn't exist anymore
I don't know who's cheering that unless you own a libertarian restaurant(top dish is salmonella)
fixed my sink
bump
>>209not in my experience; if they do, they're charging the company and not you
I don't work I give advice and feels for free.
>>195Since you mention Torx wrenches, Torx screws are a thing too but the square headed screws Canadians use also are good. Philips head screws are awful always slipping and stripping.
>>220They throw away donuts for being stale but once it is taken outside tons of people who work at donut shops and bakeries will give you free donuts if you ask for them before they throw them out, and nothing stops you from dumpster diving for them if it isnt in a locked dumpster area. Ive gotten free donuts.
>>233Uber and Lyft drivers should also use Mobicoop or Companero and the like to put Uber and Lyft out of business. I havent used them personally though so I am not sure how good they are for the drivers and riders.
>using an electric drill to drive screws into wood
First of all, you should ideally use an impact driver, but if an electric drill is all you've got (like me) then remember to set the power as low as possible to drive the screw until the head is flush with the surface of the wood. Too many retards set it to max and then drive the screws into the wood, cracking the wood, making the connection weaker, making it harder to unscrew in case you need to adjust because the wood has closed around the screw head.
If a head of a screw breaks off, rather than pull the screw with pliers or whack at it with a hammer like an imbecile, grab the visible part of the screw with the three prongs of the drill bit holder, tighten it and then just unscrew the broken screw.
>Cutting wood
When cutting wood to precise lengths or cutting out precise amounts to make joints, remember that the hand saw and electric circular saw both have a thickness and you need to take it into account.
>Wood glue
Wood glue is fantastic at holding wood together. People hear the word "glue" and think it's like.paper glue. Nah, it penetrates the two pieces of wood and then fuses together. That is why the surfaces you're gluing should be rough. Sanded surfaces have a lot of the pores closed (that's what sanding does) and the glue can't penetrate as well, which means it can't hold as well. When a screw is added to a glued joint, the screw is there to keep them together while the glue fuses/dries. Wood glue sets in about 10mins, but it takes around 24h to dry and harden (in normal, dry conditions). Use a wet cloth to wipe away any extra glue.
There's lots more one learns while woodworking. There's loads of "tricks" that only click once you're actually working with the wood. It all comes with experience.
>>269Anything but torx is trash
/thread
You know I was thinking, not only are we not salting workplaces, we're not even helping fellow leftists get jobs. I think that's the best mutual aid you can do is help get a fellow leftist a job or a better job. We should have networks getting our people into good gigs.
>>821good idea. rightoids and stormfags do this all the time.
is it betraying humanity and earth, to seek employment in oil-offshore plants, or mining sectors, namely as specialised truck\crane operator, or, as any other sort of qualified technician?
>>1045That's an individualist vision of the world. Capitalism won't survive because you go in the banking sector. Climate change won't get worse because you work for an oil company.
What matters is the action of collective subjects.
