  • Why use a gun chambered in 6.5cm, 308win, 300wm, or 338lapua for home defense, unless you mean defense of your large estate and need long range? Shotguns are long and unwieldy. I’d go for hand guns with rounds that distort when they hit something so there is less chance of penetration and continuing on. Most likely 22lr or 9mm. 22 has less stopping power, but usually more capacity.

    Depends on the field. In my field people talk. Word would get around that you lied, plus you might get reported to our certification board. If that happened, there would be no interview at the second company because your certification would be gone and not coming back, and everyone checks certification status because it’s so easy.



  • Many of us are ambivalent. We are overwhelmed by the terrible things happening around us. We can stick our heads in the sand, but we can’t help fix things if we don’t know what is happening. I take breaks from Trump/Musk news, but I can’t stay away forever if I want to fight for my family, and maybe my country.





  • Same. I have been working where I work much longer than my boss. I know the relevant requirements better most of the time. I don’t throw that in their face. Plus, even if I’m right, they can (in the moment) pull rank and enforce whatever they want. I remain humble in my assertions and in return they almost never pull rank. It’s a good balance. My boss actually depends on me to know the requirements and be able to tell everyone what they are. Then, they just enforce them. Win-win for me.
