Reply to TIL about the only double barrel cannon in the world. When it was its first tested during the American Civil War, the chain snapped immediately and one ball tore into a nearby cabin, knocking down its chimney; the other spun off erratically and struck a nearby cow, killing it instantly. by ExpertPreference8481
Its on display in Athens GA by the courthouse if anyone is interested.

Reply to LPT: Do not fall for the whole pursue "working for your dream company" idea. You will be so much better off if you have a wonderful, respectful, considerate boss at some normal business who actually values and respects you/your work, and allows you to become successful and proficient in your field. by Dismal_Body_2731
I have the most amazing job ever at a small manufacturing company which I never heard of before I applied. Amazing pay, amazing bosses, amazing benefits, awesome coworkers many of who me I have formed real lasting friendships with. I have opportunities that would have taken a decade or more to build at larger better known firms and I love my work as much as someone can love corporate office work stuff. The big guys will use you up and spit you out all while leveraging their good name to pay you less and abuse you more. Fuck them
