The two reasons I’m still on Facebook are 1 my parents are on their, 2 to keep and eye on what bands are on locally at the pub

A very toxic industry to be in, I used to be an engineer for a company that looked after slot machines here in the UK. High Street betting shops would regularly get smashed up by people after they lost all their money, but they would just pay us to repair them and let them back a few weeks later because they knew they’d be back. Completely taking advantage of people with a very real problem.
I’ll be honest those would be amazing in the winter
I work some where that does double shift which is mornings one week and afternoons the next. It’s OK but id prefer standard days, I have however done triple shift for a year at one job and it completely messed me up, and to this day I blame it for giving me super high blood pressure I didn’t have before I started it. It all comes down to profits, why buy another machine to manufacture whatever it is you do when you could simply run the same machine 24/7. Although it inevitably leads to disaster one machine doing all the work as triple shifts leave little time for maintenance and seeing managers flap about because a machine broke down because you were allowed to shut it down to grease the bearings once a week is hilarious.
Someone told a mistruth on the Internet?! Surly this must be a first, we should do something about this post haste
I saw a video on YouTube showing how to use them for knitting gloves, you can still buy plastic versions
