That means there are 20,000 workers from various crafts who all share the same vacation policy. It's not the type of thing that comes up in department-level union negotiations.

Depends on how bad you are. You can glaze a clutch in an afternoon.

Unless you're OK with looking foolish in front of your boyfriend's dad, I would rent an automatic. You also have the possibility of damaging the clutch if you're not careful.

That said, it shouldn't take more than an afternoon to get the hang of it, so, either way.

US licenses don't differentiate. There's no way to tell by the license which transmission you used on the test. Shouldn't be a problem.

USA, CA, civil service, IBEW. I'm between 5 and 15 years (different PTO for different service lengths).

15 days vacation, all federal plus 5 floating holidays, and 10 sick days.

It's 10 days vacation between 1 and 5 years, and 20 after 15.

I wonder if it would hold together well enough for a grilled cheese...

It helps if you watch it over and over, until the tape wears out.

And by etc, OP means Princess Bride.

 

Chronova Engineering produces exquisite mechanical marvels. Their production values are astonishing, with incredible macro work and a very soothing narration.

 

The seats are assigned. People have been standing in line for 15 minutes now. Why on earth would anyone want to stand there, when they could just sit and wait until the line clears?

I understand wanting to get off a plane ASAP, but boarding? You just end up sitting on the plane, waiting for everyone else to get on.

 

I just got to work at 02:30, covering the second half of the graveyard shift. Pretty quiet night.

 

This album has phenomenal songwriting. It's got a kind of laid-back LA-surf-rock sound with elements of punk and maybe a hint of wistful country in the lyrics.

The album and band appear endangered, unavailable on any music streaming service.

The only online version I could find is this a random YouTube upload with almost no views.

They were introduced to me by a friend's sister in, like 1999. Their band ended quickly after the death of one of the members.

The only other digital presence related to them now appears to be a remaining band member's channel, which hasn't been updated in 11 years.
