Ah, poo poo, I knew I forgot to do something. I did say that I'd write something up on fed hiring; I'll come up with something and post it this week.Nick Soapdish posted:New topic: Would anyone be able to look at a federal resume compared to my regular rear end resume?

Thanks man, I shot you a couple PMs with my stuff. I am sure I'm not the only one that would appreciate a fed jobs primer to help. I was just surprised to finally find a req that didn't want already independently licensed so hadn't given much work into building a fed resume

I literally look at the fed hiring reqs and while I might be interested in the jobs and hell might even qualify, I can't make sense of the loving requirements on USAJOBS in order to tailor my resume to something that might get a second look.

I am interested in federal hiring as well. Retire here in December and have a resume for regular jobs but am being told to cast a wide net in my job search.

A big one is that fish-covered headboard. That's a dope rear end scene, and it looks EXACTLY as it did in my junior high imagination. Shields, as mentioned. Ornithopters look sick. Sandworm is unfuckingreal (and I'm glad they showed it in the first trailer, because now I know what we'll see in the next one). Yueh and the Harkonnens. Pretty sure we see Shadout Mapes for gently caress's sake. Day 1, IMAX. Hell yes.

I do question what adjustment will need to be made when fighting without shields though.

I'm not 100 percent stuff on how they're handling the Harkonnen, but the might be because of the Lynch version. That being said, their planet is supposed to be an industrial shithole, and so far they look the part. Dave Bautista and Skellan Skarsgard make me hopeful, too.

I do question what adjustment will need to be made when fighting without shields though. As I recall, the key to shield fighting was doing fast stuff with one hand, while being sneaky and slow with the other. Also, this is only the first half of the book, which makes sense. Paul's eyes aren't changed in the trailer. There's also a pretty clear point to cut in the book.

I hope the Pink Floyd is just for the trailer. It's not bad, it just doesn't fit. e: I get that it's a Jodorowsky shoutout, but it pulled me right out of the trailer. joat mon fucked around with this message at 18:55 on Sep 10, 2020 |

Got a text from my nephew this afternoon. He’s a teenager and wants to know about the military. I am completely and utterly unprepared for the conversation. But I feel like I gotta have it, and hammer home how bad an idea enlisting is. Because eventually he’ll be having the conversation with my Dad, who was enlisted, and Commissioned. And I don’t know if he’s really pro or against his grandson joining, but his career was more blessed than crab man by an order of magnitude (So far, no telling how sweet crab mans ride might be) and I’m afraid my nephew might think that’s what the military, or at least the Navy, is like. Any advice?

I'm right at a pound trimmed and the day is only half done. Some really nice buds this batch. I mean, I'm lucky to trim weed this nice, the top shelf here is nearly $200/oz after taxes, compared to $150/oz neighborhood most of town charges, and they still sell out every month. Having my lunch joint then it's back to staring at weed for another 5 hours. /\ Shim, tell your nephew straight up that it sucks and if he considers anything, air force. Although he sees you and your pops and where the service has gotten you guys. At the least, if he's seriously considering enlisting, push him to in a direction that has a lower chud density as far as a career, so he hears more opinions than the standard military poo poo about republicans and defense and blah blah. Assuming he gets a high enough GT score. Tell him you want to see his asvab results lol. CRUSTY MINGE fucked around with this message at 19:24 on Sep 15, 2020 |

There are definitive positives to it, like stable pay and eventual benefits, but then there's serving in the forever wars under a fascist. Send your nephew this way when he's 21 and I'll find him a weed job.
