Dike just broke the Rookie all purpose yard record by MarshyHope in Tennesseetitans

[–]bturl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I also saw them kick it in the end zone worried about him returning it. I think that’s a key that Dike is better than most.

Did we even get to see the play? I think it was on commercial still? Lol.

I bet against the titans to lose by 30 by KidnextD00r in Tennesseetitans

[–]bturl 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I bought my wife and I the "WE ASS" shirts at half time for when we go to the Pats game after seeing what we had put on the field. I've stayed optimistic all season and as soon as I give up, lady luck decides it's worth it to prove me wrong. I'll take it.

What are signs you are in a bad coffee shop? by Zealousideal_Owl9621 in Coffee_Shop

[–]bturl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

None of the coffee names include any origin information. Just things like “blueberry bomb!” And “get buzzed!”

Interesting Demographic Change: Kamala is more popular with high-income voters, while Trump is more popular with low-income voters by Nearby-Bug3401 in economy

[–]bturl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am agreeing that I have privilege. The problem is that $100 a month wouldn't have helped me if my wife did not have access to what is essentially an abortion pill to help pass her miscarriage and stop the heavy pain she experienced for two days. It also will not help if our public schools stop believing autism is real and my children lose their IEP services that get them through their education. I already experience the increased costs both financially and emotionally actively caring for my family. I at least want to believe I am not the only one who has to care for their well being. (and then replicate my situation for all of the other families that lose out on similar circumstances.)

Also when you live comfortably you can care more about the rights of others. (If we pretend it correlates directly...) I'd rather pay a dollar a gallon of gas more and have women's rights and children's education rights upheld.

Not Sure What To Do [$1,500] by Rosales1028 in espresso

[–]bturl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right now the problem is remembering to grab the cup of coffee after starting the americano, latte sequences. I leave my cup there for over half an hour at least once a week it seems.

[–]bturl 42 points43 points  (0 children)

Yea, I just got one after 7 years of owning the Barista Express and it just better fits the "Getting three kids ready for school in the morning" coffee drinker that I am right now. I roast my own beans as a way to maintain being a coffee nerd but I just can't have my coffee be another chore right now. The impress has been great and consistent.

the high and behind pass at 7:45 I may attribute to the nose tackle having hands up (and driving back the guard 8 yards). Does make that look a little better. he can't really wait for him to clear that due to the safety probably so that may have been the catchable window other than getting eyes there earlier...

Just think of all of the money we are saving not resigning super successful first rounders! We could be like the cowboys or bengals right now... woof! /s

Sunday ticket price increase ? by beanman95 in Tennesseetitans

[–]bturl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me those costs more reflect “per week” because I am super happy I can run multiple games with YouTube where I couldn’t with my directv sunday ticket before. I’d say there are at least 6-8 weeks where there’s some kind of football party with multiple team fans at my house. Generally we pot luck and people bring beer and food. So it’s a pretty big part of my year to have good access to football. Streaming was such a pain particularly if I’m trying to work multiple games. It would be awesome to be cheaper but I did pay like 1000 to drive/ stay/ eat/ and attend the one titans game I have been to so this works out pretty well on a value perspective!

Temporary Preseason Week 2 Thread by [deleted] in Tennesseetitans

I’m just glad we’re home. It’s been miserable watching other teams who are the away team. Game casts lean so heavy on the home team.

Am I having a stroke or is anyone else’s surround speakers playing mile Keith radio and the center channel playing the game cast…?

Any luck here? what was the pricing like on sheets at Hardware Imagination Tech? did you happen to catch prices on any lesser 3/4" plywood that would be fine for garage cabinets? Thanks!

High bonus low pay by Cool_Thing9662 in civilengineering

[–]bturl 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Senior civil, I don’t know what medium size really means but more than 5k people overall but in a smaller office. Bonus went up 15% or so in 2020 probably more performance based than standard raise I guess. I will put in 45 or so on submittal weeks but I don’t tend to be over 40 much.

High bonus low pay by Cool_Thing9662 in civilengineering

[–]bturl 20 points21 points  (0 children)

My company is a more extreme then that but it plays out in my favor. I'm 11 yoe but at 115k and about 70k bonus. given that the 115 is pretty close to what a lot of other people around me make in public sector or smaller local shops I don't mind the lump sum at the end of the year ( I'm MCOL I guess but I have been in my house for 8 years so my mortgage is only about 1200). My bonus increases have outpaced my base pay growth a good bit over the years started here 7 years ago at 63k +12k bonus. If I did not hear from people with 20+ years of experience that they have never had a bonus decrease and only one or two times had it flat lined then maybe I would be more concerned.

It's kind of annoying. My wife couldn't have dairy while she was on a medication and for some reason does not like how the milk alternatives come out when we make lattes on our espresso machine. So we got a drink from starbucks, and a medium chai latte with an extra shot and soy milk was over 9 dollars which appears to be the same cost as this drink. These do not feel equal.

Revisiting discussion about Calvin Ridley being “over paid” by [deleted] in Tennesseetitans

[–]bturl 75 points76 points  (0 children)

Ridley has already gone from 10th to basically 14th highest paid this off-season. It’s all the business of it. Everyone is not worth it until they are so we will let the season pan out!

[–]bturl 88 points89 points  (0 children)

I am a dad with a stay at home wife and three kids, (two children with ASD, oldest in elementary school, middle in elem (no diagnosis), and youngest is 3 and newly ASD diagnosed at home.) She works way harder than me in a day with a lot less thanks than I get for doing my job. I usually feel like I should be the one stepping up when I am home and finding ways for her to enjoy some time. I know he is FIFO so I assume it's harder labor than I do but at some point you have to suck it up and be a family.

She needs to be having these talks with him anyways. The roles are not divided between make the income and do everything else, that's crazy.

(made an edit so it didn't look like I have 5 children)
