Was referring to the historical case of the radium girls who died horrible deaths from painting watches. Interesting bit of American history if you find time to google it.
There is a huge swath of people out there that have no idea what it entails to do what I do. They just don't understand why I want to go home and lock the door and why I am so anti social.
This woman, the photographer, the editor and the PR team are such people.
Imma zoo keeper that maintains the facility and the fucking little exotic animals enclosed within. << That is the best explanation that I could give anyone.
My day is spent doing shit, telling people not to do shit that fucks shit up and promising other people that shit will be provided. Everybody wants something, and every day a little piece of my soul dies.
Yeahhh, it's that bad. But I'm paid well and someday soon I'll get to tell everyone to fuck the fuck off!
Firstly: Ow. Second: I had that same iron as a kid, almost certain that it says "Radio Shack" on it somewhere... definintely not the ideal tool for a job like that.
It very well probably did. It's been 20yrs since I last saw the damn thing. Still have some rolls of Radio Shack-branded solder. That stuff was good and I hesistate to use it for sentimental reasons. Wasn't there a thread a few months ago about an electrician feeling nostalgic and sad after finishing a decades-old spool of wire? More or less that.
And no microscope either. No way in hell would I ever touch a mobo with a soldering iron, and if I ever do it won't be without some serious magnification.
Of course a picture of some dumb broad holding a soldering iron is fake and gay.
