Can confirm, currently wearing a #4 beanie and I am looking for work.

[–] timestatic@feddit.org 45 points 11 hours ago

So the Jews are running the world after all!

[–] RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 3 points 6 hours ago

#4, also influencer.

[–] Evil_Shrubbery@lemm.ee 61 points 15 hours ago

The villain we need

Is a ski mask just a beanie that covers your entire head? If so, I guess this still makes sense: Bank robber lol

[–] Clinicallydepressedpoochie@lemmy.world 16 points 13 hours ago (2 children)

Real bank robbers are behind the desk.

[–] Agent641@lemmy.world 1 points 3 hours ago

The banks' robbers

[–] ThePantser@lemmy.world 5 points 10 hours ago

No, they are people robbers, similar but different.

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 13 points 13 hours ago (2 children)

False. I wear no beanie at all and am not yet emperor.

[–] zagaberoo@beehaw.org 3 points 4 hours ago

You fell into the asymptote; even the mighty beanie can't divide by zero. Try wearing a single thread from a beanie instead.

[–] Maggoty@lemmy.world 4 points 6 hours ago

Then you should probably put your beanie back on before the guards see you...

[–] Carvex@lemmy.world 60 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

You forgot the most important, smallest, highest ranking beanie, the yarmulke!

[–] RubberElectrons@lemmy.world 11 points 17 hours ago

That's pretty good hahaha

[–] AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world 4 points 10 hours ago

What about the propeller? Does it mean anything?

[–] Lemjukes@lemm.ee 23 points 15 hours ago (2 children)

Ah yes this stupid ass post that thinks baristas are making more than construction workers and forklift drivers…

[–] ShinkanTrain@lemmy.ml 10 points 12 hours ago* (last edited 12 hours ago)

Not to mention drug dealers, which can vary a lot

[–] holo@lemmy.wtf 7 points 14 hours ago

Forklift operators yes, construction workers also yes depending on the region. In many areas of the US the majority of construction workers are undocumented workers and thus kept at or below minimum wage. Forklift operators really don't make a lot of money. Like more than general warehouse labor but even in decent states that tends to be pretty low on the spectrum.

Why would I wear a beanie and have cold ears?!

[–] tfw_no_toiletpaper@lemmy.world 8 points 13 hours ago (2 children)

Because you are going bald lmao

[–] SkyezOpen@lemmy.world 5 points 10 hours ago

Woah hey why do you have to bring up the fact that Tim Pool is going bald?

[–] Xanthrax@lemmy.world 6 points 12 hours ago

My hairline is receding faster than the Russians, but my ears are what I'm what I'm worried about.

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 3 points 14 hours ago

I guess to assert your dominance

[–] Xuderis@lemmy.world 2 points 10 hours ago

Fun fact: rock climbers wear beanies to prevent them from falling.

[–] solsangraal@lemmy.zip 19 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

as someone with an unreasonably large head, the gamer beanie still too small

[–] PunnyName@lemmy.world 10 points 17 hours ago* (last edited 17 hours ago) (1 children)

Right? Fuck all these small headed people that look good with beanies. I just want my ears to stay warm!

[–] MutilationWave@lemmy.world 1 points 4 hours ago

For real though get a Carhartt. They make high quality shit for workers. I got a new one for Christmas and I can't imagine a head too big to fit, I gotta roll it up.

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 5 points 14 hours ago

I wear the bottom right beanie, but my career is of the top left. Have I broken the rules? Nobody informed me of beanie etiquette.

[–] neidu3@sh.itjust.works 14 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

I don't wear a beanie, that explains why I keep failing upwards.

[–] Onomatopoeia@lemmy.cafe 6 points 16 hours ago

Yea, I don't know anyone, anywhere I've ever worked that wore a beanie.

Except when I did construction, or mechanic, or maintenance... You know, where we were outside in the cold.

[–] nifty@lemmy.world 1 points 10 hours ago* (last edited 10 hours ago)

Oh snap, guess I am kitchen staff o7

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 8 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

The first style could also be a seaman on a merchant mariner vessel.

[–] I_am_10_squirrels@beehaw.org 1 points 12 hours ago

Beanie on my head and seamen on my face

[–] Shawdow194@fedia.io 7 points 16 hours ago
[–] eestileib@sh.itjust.works 6 points 17 hours ago

Make it even smaller and you can become Rocky Balboa's trainer.

[–] Clinicallydepressedpoochie@lemmy.world 2 points 13 hours ago* (last edited 12 hours ago)

Construction workers do not sacrifice their bodies to be paid less than a barista

[–] Shanedino@lemmy.world 3 points 15 hours ago

To some extent it's just a representation of people who wear a beanie for functionality vs looks.

[–] peoplebeproblems@midwest.social 2 points 14 hours ago

Where does one get a tiny beanie? Not because I'm a software engineer, but because it looks hilarious
