I also work in a factory but our temperature is largely unregulated with the exception of offices, break areas and certain departments where the stock needs to be kept away from too much humidity (so, even in those departments it's humidity control not air conditioning). In the winter it's cold enough that we've had pipes freeze in the center of the building and in the summer it's normal to see 100 degrees at 3am. It's too bad I don't live in one of those states where it's "regulated" because I think anyone would say those temperatures are unreasonable.
The documentary Dear Zachary: A Letter to a son About His Father.
Starts out as a home project someone was putting together after his friend died so that his unborn son would know his father and it just gets worse from there. Amazing movie, would not recommend unless you need a few good cries
I'm all done with my plans for the weekend. Friday night was DnD, this morning was mowing the lawn. Now I get to hang out with my kids and maybe play some board games.
I watch it but it's because I enjoy soccer and their team has made history. It's entertaining to me to see the inner workings of a soccer team. I don't know anyone else who watches it
I don't know how unconventional my interests are but:
TTRPGs, board games, and uhh I guess taking things apart to see how they were made is interesting but only if I can hold the pieces in my hands
I usually pinch the knife (from the dull side) with my thumb and finger right up against the pit, putting pressure on it just until it pops off. Very similar to your method
In the US. I get all federal holidays plus my birthday and a few extra holidays (like an extra day around new years, Thanksgiving and Christmas) plus I get 25 days of paid vacation but no sick days. In 3.5 years I'll get the maximum of 30 days/year.
Our vacation time is tied to years of service.
1 year = one week
1-5 years = two weeks
5-10 years = three weeks
10-20 years= four weeks
20-25 years = five weeks
25+years = six weeks
I tell all the new guys "if your manager doesn't want you want to lock something out, call me. I'll lock it out. There's nothing in this place worth getting hurt for."
Here, our equipment is old enough that sometimes powering things down means they don't come back up properly. I'd rather fight getting a machine back up and running vs having to hear about someone being injured.
And here my cat is always talking about Mao

Warped tour in the 90s used to get some massive pits going. I really miss those days

7PM I work nights
Now we know the answer to the age old question "what's long and green and smells like pork"
Glad I could join near the end to get some people's reactions. Will try to join on those Fridays where I'm not busy

Of course by "week" I mean 5 days of vacation.
Since this is marked NSFW, I can say this here: I might stand on the top rung of a ladder on occasion

Thanks for doing this, I'll check the list again and see if there's anything else that piques my interest
OMW with snacks
Yo, can I get This War of Mine? Because the world isn't depressing enough, I need a game to make things worse!
