do you drop the occasional F-Bomb? cuss?

I've been filming myself with my GoPro. it's been pretty eye opening. first, my dreams of being an influencer isn't going to happen. I kinda suck (talking and actually performing the task I want to influence), and I breath too loudly for any public youtube viewing. and I had forgotten my voice. my voice is not great. nasally, ecck. besides the point; all of it.

my use of colorful words: i'm actually kinda shocked at my language as well. I kinda cuss a lot!

i'm going to clean up my act a bit. act more friggen professional!! damn it.

Not like some in the trades where I spent the bulk of my life. Some people can't say a complete sentence w/o an f adjective or 3. But I'm angered it gets pretty blue.

My Pop was a Navy Machinist Mate, he cursed like a...Sailor.

I began working on cars, motorcycles, etc, with him as early as I can remember. I can still clearly hear "Hold the fcukin flashlight still, fer Christ's sake! SIHT! Can't fcukin see!'

Then I joined the Navy myself. I can turn it off very easily, but otherwise I use plenty of sentence enhancers.

Only when I'm annoyed, not usually as an adverb/adjective in normal talk.

I have to be careful at work. F-bombs in a healthcare setting don't come across too well.

At home I think my wife drops the f-bomb more than I do. And when she does she's pissed and I just leave her alone.

I've avoided cursing from my early twenties - not meaning I don't ever. From my times working in a steel yard, construction, the service, and listening to workers of all types using cuss words as every other word coming out of their mouths, I got tired of listening and seemed to me a really low life thing after a while. Both my wife & I seldom do that.

18 word sentence.

I do a lot when I'm working on something. MrsWD thinks I'm upset - angry or something. I keep telling her it's a normal part of fixing things. Trying to fit a bolt into a hole, if it's the slightest bit recalcitrant it gets called all kinds of names. It's just what I do.

hahhaha..

I once helped a good friend install an oil cooler on his 911. you know how those hoses are all about a centimeter short. well, we were both crammed up under the wheel well.

cussing.
"eff, this is going to be tight!"
"ahh, @!#$!@ its too short, pull harder you B!"
"i'll give you some more length from my end,,FAACCCK...ARGGG!"
"SOB! I got it in..PUSH!!!"

we could hear his wife dying on the other side of the kitchen door. she was laughing so hard. she came out and her eyes were red. she was trying to record us. she said we sounded like the worst gay snuff film ever. shut it down. beer-thirty.

Depends on the company

Had a nurse threaten a radiology techs job for hitting the lunch spread my partner and I bought for the OR staff. Told that nurse what I would do if I heard of her doing anything like that again
It was not cursing as much as the tone. OR supervisor just about swallowed her tongue, did not think it was part of my temperament
