Re: The Future of Field Techs: Race Class and Inclusion

Agreed that this was really compelling reading. You briefly mentioned an imbalance in gender which I guess isn't that crazy given the history of the profession. I've worked on crews that are pretty well balanced, but yeah even if women is the least "minority" of all the groups, I can tell ...

Re: THE item you can't do without

A down vest. Not one in particular, but something lightweight. I was pretty iffy on vests, didn't know what the point was, but now I totally get it. They're great! perfect for layering and stuffing in a pack and they look cute! pretty essential for me.

Re: Social Media - Yay or Nay

Yeah, that seems pretty harsh to me. Yes people abuse it, people use it too much, people introduce negativity, but in that way it reflects real life, no? and what do you do in real life? Tune out the bad vibes! As I've been traveling it's been a valuable way for me to able to keep in touch with peop...

Re: Music For Traveling



Well the good news is it looks like it embedded the video (automatically) again. The bad news is that I find this all very confusing, but enjoy the tunes!

ABBA! Nothing better to scream along to while being partially delirious from hours of highway hypnosis. Greatest hits, compilation, whatever. Speaking of whatever, these first two Ben Folds Five albums are melodic gold. Easy listening. ]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zUOt5AhUqKE could only find a p...

Re: Winter 23-24: What are you doing?

Fortunate to have a friend who's a small business owner. A small cafe specifically. Always looking for seasonal help and there's high turnover so they can always find a place for me. It's also not as annoying as serving at a bigger place. Do you know any business owners who could use a hand? Shops, ...

Re: Becoming a field tech - where to begin?

Be decent to the girls on your crew! Don't act like a creep. Act like you've talked to a woman before. And for god's sake don't be handsy! Hands off bros!

Headlamp recs?

I'm going to be doing some night work for the first time, and I want a good and reliable headlamp that will make it really bright! Kinda nervous about it tbh. Anybody with experience with night work or just has a headlamp that works for them? Please and thank you!
