tcgram Posted April 2, 2024 #77 Share Posted April 2, 2024 3 hours ago, Michelle said: You and me both. I'm 5'7" 135 pounds of delicate looking female. I cause men to stand up straighter and take a step back. I can even make a misbehaving, screaming and running toddler freeze in their tracks. When they regain the ability to move they run and hide behind mom or dad. 😄 I'm a little over 5'6", and about 175 lbs. Despite being pretty muscular, I don't have a good RBF, so all kinds of weirdos come up to talk to me. My daughter says I need to work on that. LOL 1 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strangers talk to me all the time. But I do smile whenever I make eye contact with someone. Unless they look like a weirdo. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Building guards, drainage shoots, stuff like that. We built a bridge twice. I've lifted a lot of heavy metals. We no longer do that now.

Why didn't you build the bridge right the first time? We are all a bunch of old farts at our shop too. I've cut my hours down to mostly paperwork now.

I guess I wrote that wrong it was two bridges. One in SC and one down in Georgia. My father is clocking close to 70, cousin who works for us is in his 50's and I'm 45. While I am the youngest and healthiest, I still have my issues. It's only my cousin and I doing the work now. My dad handles deliveries and paperwork. My cousin is CNC lathe, and I am the CNC mill man. I don't think I can retire or to be more honest want to retire. I eventually won't be a machinist but I will do something easier. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I was younger and had something to prove if one of the guys said let me get that for you I'd tell them I got it. Eventually I started saying thank you more often. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just can't do it. I'm still stout, I just don't care about lifting that kind of junk any longer. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Establishing who the real alpha males are, I think, but I'm not sure why...maybe that's just what alpha males do...I'm sure some chick put us up to it though. And do you even own a halberd?

man with breasts Posted April 9, 2024 #100 Share Posted April 9, 2024 I suppose the irony is that there are men who have this figure but aren't actually dads to anyone. I prefer the using the term portly to describe myself. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
