@@andrewallen9993 The difference as Washington explained then was that the war was about taxation without representation, not about taxation itself. The people literally just voted in politicians who supported a tax to raise an army and fund western exploration, so they had no right to complain. This is also why Washington did not really have to fight, people surrendered as soon as Washington laid down the line and Washington let them go off without punishment. Also the army was not increased to fight the people, it was increased to fight off the indian and superpower colonies that bordered their newly founded country.

1:10 It's not just a blue-collar tax. When I was a kid, dad and I would go to his workplace and let me fuck around on a lab computer for the whole day and it just so happened that said computer ran either a pen plotter or a CNC machine (no, they weren't that cheap, I literally could just pick which IBM 5150 I wanted to fuck around on). The funny relevant bit here is that his supervisor found out this was going on, would come by to watch, and not only didn't mind it, but encouraged it because he was just amazed that a kid not yet even in his teens could be taught how to operate this stuff competently. This later extended into my teen years, where I was then plotting circuit traces on a HP-UX workstation running something from Mentor Graphics (when not using his Windows machine to play online games on the company T3). Different supervisor came by one day while I was doing this and said that if it weren't for my age and lack of a security clearance, he'd have hired me on the spot.
@MtnBadger2 жыл бұрын
"It ain't stealing if you also *used it* on company time." 😉 I've had a friend bring me patent forms, swearing one or two of my deelybobs were destined to make a million bucks. I'm with you, more like a million pin pricks in the ass... You always tell the stories, well... I've got a story about the best bosses ever and, most people don't get to make that claim. 😀 I was the luckiest "underverker" in the world when I worked for a particular movie production company. My "shop boss" was the most under-spoken, even tempered, actually nice, calm, cool and collected (in front of us) guy, *even when you F'd-up bad...* He'd look at you, ask you if you learned anything and if you think you'll do it again and, presuming you gave him the correct answer and didn't have a look of sheer terror in your eyes, he'd show you the *right way* to "F'er-up" and send you on your merry way... Just as long as you never tried to hide anything. There was someone(s) bending the lower legs on the expensive, automatic trailer jacks because, it's a "hurry-up, it's due yesterday, even though we just got the order ten minutes ago... Kinda place. Some walkin' dingle-berry would hook up to a trailer and take off... Dragging the jack leg in the dirt then drop it really quick and not say anything. *Not cool.* The owner (actually a very cool guy, whom I punched squarely in the mouth on my first day and didn't get fired!!) and his #1 came toolin' up on his golf cart (big lot) and asked me "Do you know who bent that trailer jack on the XYZ trailer back there??" I looked him squarely in the eye and said "Yes, Sir... I did. And I know what I did wrong and it won't happen again, Sir. I'm just going in right now to get a new one and get it fixed..." He just looked at me and said "Fair enough, I'll let you get to it." And they drove off in a cloud of dust. A little while later, his #1 came rolling back up, by himself and said "You're a very smart, *very* lucky man. He saw that bent jack and he hit the roof!... He was going in to go to the cameras when we pulled up. He was going to look through the footage and fire whomever did it, right on the spot... But, you caught him off guard, owned up to it, promised not to do it again and were already fixing it so, he didn't have anything to say. If you'd have lied about it, you'd be done for, right where you stood." I asked him "why should I lie and lose a $50k job over a $150 jack that I'd be happy to pay for. That's stupid." That's when he said that people were bending them every couple days and just hiding them and he was over it. (a couple days later, I noticed one less person at the lunch table). It's a shame to act like that when you have really cool bosses. The owner would charter a bus and take the *whole production shop crew* deep sea fishing every spring, down to Panama City beach (The "Redneck Riviera!" 😆) and paid for *everything.* Rooms, breakfast and dinner every day, the works. We'd have a full day of fishing in between two days to do whatever "stupid tourist tricks" we wanted. Easily a $30k trip... And people repaid him by hiding fuck-ups and lying to him (but not for very long). If there was a rush on a job building a special project, he'd ask for volunteers to work overtime (never orders, just asks, you wanna leave, no prob.) and he'd walk by, an hour or two in and just hand you an extra $20 bill (or two) and say "thanks for the good work." and move on out of your way. Nobody does that. It's just a gesture of appreciation but, it's flowers and wine for the wife to make up for being late for dinner, missing an event, etc.. There's not too many owners and foremen who treat you like that. Then again, there's not a lot of companies like that... Very special skill-sets required and you have to be a good fit overall (personality, etc.) because, it's a fast paced, "bust-ass from whistle to whistle" job to which many people say "screw this!" roll up their gear and hit the bricks (or are shown the bricks) after a week, maybe less. I'm probably going to get called on this but, it's *the largest* provider of movie production/transportation equipment in the entire US of A. Need to shoot a location set somewhere? Cast and Star trailers, "Honey wagons," grip, electric and camera trucks (with custom built dark rooms), hair and makeup trailers, light towers and a bunch of support equipment. Anything you can dream up, they'd build it and deliver it to you, anywhere you want it. It's a great company but a very "tough nut" to crack. But, once you're "in, you're in" until you want to leave. And they take good care of you... No yelling, screaming or threatening of jobs. It's not a job you just "go to school" for, it requires a collection of skill sets just to get hired, then it's a *lot* of OJT. 👍 When I got the call to come for an interview, he asked if he'd called before. I told him "no, I just figured they weren't interested." He apologized, said he wanted to talk to me 4 mos. ago and am I still interested. It so happened I was so, the wife drove me down and ran a quick errand and waited in the front lot. I found the boss, one "Mr. Rock..." Great boss' name (he's retired, I can say it now). He looked over my resume for a hot second and asked "Is this you?? This is your resumé?" I said "Yes, Sir." And he said "walk with me." We looked over the *huge* compound (which is hidden behind another business in front of the property, they don't take walk-ins 😆). We walked and talked and looked at equipment and buildings and got a feel for each other. We made the circuit and conveniently ran out of things to say right back where we started. I just said "Im happy." to which he replied "Im happy." The entire interview (only one, none of this 2 & 3 interview crap) took a little over two hours. Just for an interview... I told him I needed to get back to my wife and he started apologizing and I said to not worry, she was reading and listening to music, it took what it took for both of us and that was it. The next day I started the best/coolest job I ever had and, it was because of the owner and bosses that ran the place, not a bad apple in the bunch. But they gave no slack, it was a very high stress, "has to be perfect and done two days before you start" type of environment. As long as you keep up with the curve, you're fine. But, the movie industry is crazy and it's in the top 3 hardest jobs I've had, including the military. The other was piledriving foundations and forming up skyscrapers in the carpenter's union so, they have to be understanding of the employees, too. if you make a mistake (and I made a couple big ones) you learn from it and move on or you find another career. But if you can swing it, it's also the most challenging and fun time you'll ever have. 😉

He was one of those guys whose yard was transformed into a Griswaldian wonderland at Christmas time. Biggest project was using a large (like 6ft diameter) metal spool that once held electrical cable to make a Ferris wheel. It was something to behold with seats for stuffed animals, a motor and stand so it actually worked, and he even engineered a system using motor brushes to transfer AC power to run the twinkle lights on the spokes and circumference since any cord or wiring would get twisted and mangled when the big wheel was turning. It was impressive to me, anyway.

I don't know how much of that was precisely on company time, but it meant he actually knew how to use the thing, so I figure it was worth paying him for it.

I feel that letting someone use a cnc mill or laser cutter or welding robot on a personal passion project is an excellent way to have people learn machines.

So fun to hear you talk about the "little things" that can be the whole world in production. I learned to start at the basics when trouble shooting. As I was STARTED/trained on a night shift all by myself. I ran screw machines so checking the variables, were as many as I imagined as I worked out the troubles. Usually it was something like tension on the guide bushing. If I got three bad ones in a row I shut the shop and went home. Because it's really about keeping the (4 screw machines and a Hobart to fix shit) shop alive. We had/have 2/4 guys doing sales dev and production. When we started we did the shit that other shops were passing on. Our Dev is the best. Just send an Etchashech pic! LOL! We did stuff for Boeing and Shh DARPA...

Thinking about it just a little tiny bit, it is easy to see that you and he share some personal philosophies. Love your videos. Along with the great visuals, there is no shortage of wit. An entertainment enigma to be sure. Keep up the great work, love you long time.

Like that front of the house guy that comes into the shop once in a while and talks at you while you are working on something. When he is talking about bringing down the feed speed, it even looks like the machine pauses to see what his choice will be.

Those arty-farty videos showing some state-of-the-art 12 axis machine producing some wonderful piece of machinery-art. You watch for 25 minutes and marvel at the end product and they NEVER tell you what it's for! 😖🤯 AvE - you watch a piece of material being machined through a haze of lubricating fluid with a commentary that is out of sync with the world but at the end of the video you have a practical thingamajig that does stuff that you don't need BUT you really want! That's the AvE difference!

No no no. You need to check out the Helical chipbreaking end mills. They are reasonably priced, and we run the 3/4 chipbreaker at 10k rpm, 2" LOC and .15 - .20" radial stepover at 150-180ipm all day long. The material removal is incredible and they cut so quietly and last so long. You CANNOT beat it. This is in a cat40 taper machine too. But using dual contact, milling or hydraulic chucks. ER collets wont hold the tool at those depths. Edit: they are not corncob roughers. They just have a chipbreaking notch every so often.
