I think he understands the problem considering he mentioned his 200k income at the start of the post.
Fur suits are expensive so hes the perfect money source :D
Unlike those industrial engineer peasants.
Well you see American manufacturing keeps getting hamstrung by an orange dipshit who thinks he's saving it
He's not trying to save it. He's simply creating market fluctuations and buying the dip. He creates conditions that cause investors to worry and stock prices to fall, then he buys when the prices are low and finally he announces that the tariffs are being postponed for 90+ days (that is, into the next financial quarter). Stock prices start to rise again and eventually they return to where they started, like it never happened.
In the meantime, people are losing jobs and their houses, but that's a small price to pay to make him and his inner circle wealthier.
We design the stuff here and have it made in China when we want to scale. There's plenty of manufacturing engineer work, but it's not in tooling.
This is an outdated mindset. Design and manufacturing work best together in a tight feedback loop, and China has become perfectly capable of doing their own design work. America has positioned itself to become nothing but a nation of consumers and venture capitalists.
Maybe they want to get a spiderman style radioactive dog bite to turn into their ideal puppy form.
Unironically yes. Lots of variation in pay and prestige among different engineering disciplines. Manufacturing engineers are not typically very well paid from what I’ve seen.
That went directly over my head. Apparently I’m out of touch. Haven’t dated in many years.
Yeah, same. I didn’t realize being a furry was so expensive.
Yeah average fursuit costs around as much as a small car or motorbike. However, unlike a car, you can buy it one part at a time.
Johnny Cash says otherwise lol
Didn't cost him a dime.
You’ll know it’s him when he comes to your town…
wait, cash was a furry?
He got a car one piece at a time
A sugar buck?
