Skimmers! Lol. I have more time jacking off at test depth on a fast boat than you guys do at sea.

I can die just by breathing. Lol
Things haven't changed that much, still the same concept just some steps evolved if you will. It's only been about 5 years since I moved into my real career and boy am I glad to be out of the restaurant scene lol.
We used to load the heated bins with pre-made big macs or whatever was on sale at that given time. Ugh, I vividly remember when the big mac's would go on sale for buy one get one for a penny, we would literally have the 2nd side of the "sandwich making line" filled with big macs lol.
Mineman do it with a bang
If you've taken a drug screening lately chances are my branch of the company checked it. I just had to get a screening for a new job and the kit had my current companies logo on it.
The automation lines we design and build in house have on avg. 60-70k in electronics and drives alone for 300k machine and we don't even mess with anything robotic related.
Can't think of anything crazy. I build 4000 injectors in an 8 hour shift on my line alone. Lots of FORD
Electronics and robotics are pricey, but the custom machining and fab work rack up the costs too. The 300k machine I mentioned has several servo driven linear actuators, but that's the bulk of the automation. It's leak decay, so instruments get pricey too. It all adds up. End results can be pretty freaking cool though.

If any nuclear material or asset is ever stolen from either of the two main naval bases that store them then the team that goes after them consists of just Lance Corporals and Corporals and they are the only ones tasked with taking them back. Plenty of other agencies will be on board and assisting of course but it will be about 12-18 Marines in their late teens early 20s on average giving chase and kicking in doors to get it all back, and in that rare case there is no ROEs and no such thing as hostages.
I work for one of the largest portable generator manufactures, been here since 2005 (Champion Power Equipment), incredible what the EPA / CARB is making small engine manufacturers go through, any small engine larger then 79cc needs to have pretty much an automotive emission cont. system, catalytic conv., evaporative fuel capture (charcoal canister), an audible (clicking) fuel cap... I'm talking the works, even better? starting 2021 all portable gens will need a carbon monoxide shut off system (for stupid ppl that kill themselves and their family by running generators indoors, garages, basements, ect...) EPA just copies CARB (Cali Air Resources Board) the following year or 2, when asked to CARB, when do you draw the line? as in, when is it clean enough? never... it just drives up the cost and lowers the performance and reliability of small engine gas powered equipment.
Decorated cake icing is injected with nitrogen to make it fluffy and lighter.
Powdered sugars have different grinds and are rated along the lines of 10x, 12x, 4x and so on. Starch is used in the grinding of sugar process.
Waste water from a food plant creates enough energy to run a 12 cylinder 600kw generator 24/7 at around 470kW to 500kW.
We use on average 120,000 to 200,000 pounds of sugar per day.

despite it being all over the news etc... every time theres a hurricane here you see several stories of people that die from this. They run it in the garage, or in a spare room with towels in the door cracks etc...hell the fire department said one family was using it as a coffee table and playing cards on it!
If you had any idea about how many things go wrong and how much of it is due to company policy you would think twice about going to a hospital for care.
And if you knew the markups on some things you would be pissed if you are in retail and even more pissed when you found out how much/often hospitals dont get paid..especially if you pay for insurance

As a commercial/industrial HVAC mechanic, most people have no idea on the amount of money it cost to air condition their office space. We recently did a shut down in a high rise building starting at 6pm on a Friday night. Changed the floor unit out and had it back up and running before Monday morning. People on the floor had no idea the job ever happened...
Between electricans, carpenters, sheet metal, pipe fitters, controls, hvac, cleaners, start up company, and building engineers all hands were on deck for 56 hours straight. The cost for the job hovered near a million dollars but it was completed on time.

Avoid buying cars from dealerships that have 18 year olds as lot attendants. When I was a lot attendant at ford all the lot guys abused the ever living shit out of everything. I did many burnouts with brand new 5.0s and focus st’s. This was common at all the dealers on our local auto mile.
