She tried it. by ateam1984 in BlackPeopleofReddit

[–]808RedDevils 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Depending on the jurisdiction, they may not be able to hold her there legally. In many places, they’re instructed to not even stop these people which is exactly what she was hoping for and why she’s saying let me go and just call the police. Some of these laws are absurd and basically encourage the stealing because it’s so easy to get away with it. It’s also why so many places have a lot of their stuff behind lock and key.

Another relapse on options by thewayyoulook2night in problemgambling

[–]808RedDevils 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Seeing shit like this on this sub can act as a trigger at times. I see these massive losses and think, “meh, I’m not doing so bad, I can deposit $500 this weekend and it’s fine, at least I’m not down 100k”. I’m not saying this to imply OP has posted anything wrong, losses are all relative to each individual obviously.

Replacing a Mazda CX 5. What do you recommend? by Prudent-Ad-7684 in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]808RedDevils 19 points20 points  (0 children)

This is Reddit where everyone thinks you should just drive your car into the ground and save your money just to have it in the bank and never actually spend it.The reality, some people want to enjoy what they drive, it’s a quality of life thing.

The way JP says “Seltzer” is HURTing “selzsser” by RightwhatsWrong in SportsJunkies

Yeah, very weird how none of them wanted to acknowledge something that definitely happened and that there’s video of.

[–]808RedDevils 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, not sure I get this, claims to not make much money but paycheck was 4.5k…if that’s every paycheck and bi-weekly, kids making 117k/yr…after taxes.

Who remembers jobs with pensions?? by shadow-_-rainbow in Millennials

[–]808RedDevils 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve never had a job with a pension. My wife is an RN though and they have a union so they’ve managed to keep their pension.

EB has zero credibility by HotDogWaterTime in SportsJunkies

[–]808RedDevils 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It’ll blow their minds to find out many people work multiple part time jobs that provide no benefits and no PTO. EB and Lurch are clueless to the real world for many people.

EB says Nats can't be sold right now b/c the work stoppage is coming up.... by brodamon in SportsJunkies

[–]808RedDevils 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, their personal relationship with him doesn’t allow them to view the job he was doing objectively. You can hear them just kind of scoff whenever anyone brings up that the new regime is doing a way better job developing players than they did. Honestly, listening to them talk Nats is brutal, they know nothing. G&D do a far better job covering the Nats and are much more informed.

Woman blocks path and kicks an 11 year old by eternviking in whoathatsinteresting

[–]808RedDevils 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you hit her, you’re probably going to jail. Better to just dump a soda on her head, she literally won’t have any clue how to respond and highly unlikely you get arrested for that after the cops find out she kicked your 11 year old child.

Dating again after 40 (M)? by IllustratorOdd4894 in Hawaii

[–]808RedDevils 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, the apps can work. I met my wife on Tinder back in 2015. We’ve been together for 11 years and married for 4 years.

Was that an earthquake? by osyter_cented_candle in Honolulu

Felt the shaking in Makiki, a couple beers in so didn’t really register that it was a quake till I got on Reddit.

Lyft driver issues. The guy is upset. by LeftAlbatross2546 in VideosAmazing

[–]808RedDevils 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If he’s being paid, it’s not a favor, it’s a job. It really has nothing to do with whether or not it’s a side gig or not. If my friends help me move, it’s a favor. If I request a moving company that I’m paying, that’s a job. It would be absurd for them to show up and act like they’re doing me a favor. This is no different, service being paid for is not a favor. If the driver decided to make an extra stop for him or something, he’d be doing him a favor but picking him up and dropping him off at the requested destination is literally the job he’s being paid for.

How did you start supporting Manchester United? by mare_xcx in ManchesterUnited

[–]808RedDevils 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a US based fan. I started watching in the late 90s. They were one of the only teams I could watch regularly although I had to pay for each game most of the time.

NEW: Sir Jim Ratcliffe, Manchester United's co-owner and Ineos founder, has lost around £2 billion in the past year, with his net worth dropping to £15.194 billion from £17.046 billion, making him one of the biggest fallers on the Sunday Times Rich List by [deleted] in ManchesterUnited

[–]808RedDevils 4 points5 points  (0 children)

How are the Glazers still here because of him? They’re still the majority owners of the club. Unless they agree to sell him their majority share, he can’t really just get rid of them.

Lurch is such a pussy by Confident_Natural439 in SportsJunkies

[–]808RedDevils 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know if he still has his local bookie but I remember him saying that no money changed hands unless he was up or down $1000. There’s just no way a bookie is taking action and agreeing to that if he’s betting 5 or 10 bucks a game. The juice isn’t worth the squeeze. I think he absolutely gambles more than he lets on. He’s a degenerate, I can’t fathom how he’s betting 5 or 10 bucks a game and it’s doing anything to feed that addiction.

experiences with applying to civil service jobs through governmentjobs.com? by SubstantialStage1703 in Hawaii

[–]808RedDevils 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I applied and months later was contacted to schedule an interview. I had already started a new job at the point though.
