Engineers are supposed to be about cost control and efficiency.
Why don't you buy your monsters by the case from Sams, Costco or Amazon so you don't have to waste time stopping at the C-store every day and paying premium price for your monsters?

you are right we are...the gas station by my house sells the 24oz cheaper per oz than a case from sams or amazon. thats why.
as far as time, literally less than 90s to pull in, grab them, tap and go.

this is trashy and stupid for sure but getting something like this from the gas station DOES feel better than grabbing it from the refrigerator. also I have no impulse control when it comes to junk food and drinks so I don't like having that sort of stuff at my house

That only activates in me on long drives, for some reason.

When a person decides they are OK subjecting their body to the things most blue collar folks subject their bodies to nutrition is pretty low on the list of bad shite. The work itself is inherently dangerous....life expectancy is shorter....disabilities greater...all manner of shite that is bad for the body, nutrition is low on the list compared to climbing scaffolding or steel or fricking around with energized electrical equipment. It hasn't been but a short period of time since most building trades people took a dump in a plastic box with no way to wash their hands aftewards....and it still ain't uncommon, even with the hand sanitizer dispenser in the porta potti...because the company that services them doesn't replace the sanitizer and if anyone says anything the company will run them off......this is also something Mike Rowe never mentions by the way....

He doesn't have to spoon feed the obvious solutions to morons like you. Unlike your pathetically underpowered intellect, lot of trade folks know to keep their own supply of TP/wet wipes/hand sanitizer and antibacterial hand wipes exist too. Not just people in the trades but military people know this stuff when going to the field too. Amazing how retards like you out yourselves...

It was a joke gramps. Take a breath.
But you claiming someone is smarter than another person because they know to bring their own wipes for the portable shitter is objectively funny

Mike Rowe ain't spoon feeding me a thing, its idiots who, like himself, have never worked in a trade but think they know what doing so requires, who are attempting to delude folks who ought to know better that a trade is in any way superior to an education.
I am quite certain that "lot" (your phrase) of trades people do indeed carry hand sanitizer and TP and wet wipes because they know their employer ain't going to supply it despite local, state and federal laws that require they do so. Those same laws state, unequivocally, that hand sanitizer, wet towelettes or anything other than potable water and soap is not acceptable to meet that legal requirement. Your position that "lot" of trades people supply this themselves suggests that "lot" of tradespeople are employed by employers who can't be bothered to comply with local, state and federal laws. This, my friend, is not something Mike Rowe knows or has never mentioned. Apparently you didn't know it either....now you do.
That is part of my point, the other part is you said yourself "lot" of trade people....so not all, not the majority, just "lot"....so what is the %? 'Cause if it is 90%, unlikely, that means of 10 pairs of hands on a job one pair is likely to have wiped an arse without any thought as to how they are going to clean their hand afterwards. Your stated position suggests those who do furnish these things themselves are "lot" in number. If that is true then it is logical to surmise that "lot" of trades people work in an environment where their employer is reluctant to comply with laws that one would think common decency would render uneccessary. Hell, your point is more poignant in support of my supposition than mine was.
The fact that many tradesmen shite in a plastic box like a cat on a daily basis and "lot" of them have to supply basic sanitary necessities because their employer refuses is reason enough to understand why they aren't overly conscious of nutrition, they ain't overly concerned with much of anything. Anybody who consistently takes a dump in a plastic box in the summer in order to provide succor for themselves and their family has made some life choices most people would never make and the choice to eat a honey bun and drink an energy drink for breakfast is in line with those choices. At least in "lot" of instances....
It is amazing that a superior intellect like yourself was not aware of the fact that there are laws requiring sanitary toilet facilities including potable water and soap be provided by an employer. It is amazing that a superior intellect such as yourself was mistakenly under the impression that hand sanitizer and anything other than potable water AND soap is an adequate means of washing ones hands after using toilet facilities, in a workplace or any place. What is truly amazing, however, is that a superior intellect such as yourself would would write this - "Unlike your pathetically underpowered intellect, lot of trade folks..." in a public forum with the intent of besmirching someone else's intellect. The truly amazing thing is that someone with your superior intellect did not know that "lot" is a singular noun and not a standard quantifying phrase in the English language. In order for the singular noun to be a standard quantifying phrase in the English language an indefinite article is required - for instance "a" as in "a lot". Upon further review perhaps it isn't amazing that someone who doesn't know the latter is also of the opinion that hand sanitizer is sufficient for cleaning ones hands after using the restroom.....

I’ll save the rest of the OT some time:
grandpaw Awgusta has graciously interrupted a gas-station breakfast thread created by a shitty troll, to explain that tradesmen make poor life choices, Mike Rowe is misleading everyone, and hilariously misses “a” before “lot” to proves his intellectual superiority.
Just your everyday humble OT Moderate, looking down on the working class from atop a mountain of paragraphs nobody asked for.
