How do I find one? Do they let you do your own work?... on the machines.
Anyone have any experience with this?
Anyone have any experience with this?
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.
You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.
I'm one of those people who know a little bit about a vast amount of things and know a lot about a fair amount of things.Ever onward said:Damn Wyldfire, is there ANYTHING you don't know about?![]()
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.
Wyldfire said:It depends on what kind of machine shop you're looking for and what you need done.
Are you looking for tool and die makers, CNC mill and lathe, precision work, metal fab?
Typically, no, they don't just let you do your own work. Those machines aren't cheap. If you need a small job done I would advise that you check out any local highschools that have a tech center with a machine shop. You might be able to get something done for free or cheaply at a place like this. A lot of Job Corps centers have machine shops too. I'd try those places first because for profit shops will cost much more.
If you are interested in learning the trade...at 19 you'd possibly qualify for Job Corps if you are in the US. Also, most of the highschools with tech centers will allow some adults who have already graduated to take tech courses if there is room.
Oh...and some companies will hire people to train to operate those machines. If you PM me where you are from I might be able to find some places in your area you could look at if it's work you're looking for. If there is a subsidiary of Timken near you...go there. They train.
