As a welder, quality doesn't come cheap or fast. A lot of work goes into my work. Even if all I'm doing is welding Part A to Part B, a lot of research, prep, and planning goes into it.

I need to know what the base material is, the base metal thickness, I need to clean the HAZ, I need to protect everything near the HAZ. I need to actually weld it and clean it for repaint.

A good welder plans to have their welds last the lifespan of the thing being welded on. If I'm welding a car frame together, I'm going to make damn sure they're good long-lasting welds that resist corrosion. Those welds will outlive the car itself.

If you can look people in the eye and make them laugh, while also maintaining relationships long term: You will likely make the most money and have the best life in sales, regardless of industry.

YES WE DID TEACH YOU THAT

YOU WERE DOING WHIPITS BEHIND THE GYM

Retail employee.

Technically speaking there's not that much stopping me from slapping the shit out of you.

As a funeral director, I'm not trying to upsell you into a nicer casket or talk you into something you don't want. I'm just trying to help you get through it and be happy with the decisions you made.

Electrical engineer. You can't develop and ship an iPhone in a year. Apple has multiple generations under development at the same time.

Yes, my job is so easy a monkey could do it.

Why do you think I'm doing it?

Not everything what shine it's gold..

I work in food and the amount of customers that act like every mistake is a personal attack is wild.

If you actually think someone is deliberately messing up your food you need to just stop going there entirely.

When you buy a research paper, the author doesn't get any cut from it. The journals are scams, and should be destroyed. Until that happens, try searching on arxiv.org first, usually there are preprints available there. If not, contact the authors. Most of us are happy to share our results. Your local library can also help you get access to those.

These are the more legitimate ways, and then there's sci-hub. I've actually seen internationally renowned researchers open a paper using sci-hub on their laptop lol.
