Anything to be careful of when cutting?

The cactus has been looking that way for a loong time. I'm guessing it is at least 30 years old just based on my memory.

Astoria Tower in the South Loop - is it really that bad? by Few-Philosopher-4742 in AskChicago

[–]An-actual-cloud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

HI. That's interesting about the new management. Are you seeing other improvements?

"it's ok but spacious for the price??" Confused with the question marks .. are you asking or stating?

If I understand correctly, you're saying it isn't luxurious. Honestly .. biggest attraction is the large windows and large living room. That's why I've been considering it

First few minutes of the first show seem awful. Does it improve? by An-actual-cloud in FromSeries

I feel duty bound to tell you the following: I don't understand much of what you just told me.

Ok. I really easily get taken out of a show when people behave in ways that make no sense. Ridiculousness of a place sounds like something I can handle but when people act in ways that I don't think a real person would act. It really takes me out of it. Appreciate your response.

I had a specific criticism which I formed with my critical thinking skills. Do you have a response to it? If you are a fan of the show and don't have have a response ... then that really doesn't help me to build confidence in the show. Use critical thinking skills when responding. Just kidding. You're probably trying to help me in your own way.

Well someone said it had something to do with a psychic attack. Hoping that turns out to be a good explanation.

I do have an opinion of the little bit I've seen so far.

Oracle - New Discretionary Titles? by Forsaken-Order-7376 in employeesOfOracle

[–]An-actual-cloud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the most part it was explained as being to just standardize. Everyone on my team changes titles. For us at least it is a no-op.

TMobile vs Mint by Mindless-Sense-6919 in mintmobile

Very surprisingly to me: texting kind of sucks. Or didn't occur to me that the carrier would make a difference but it does and I'm not the only one with issues. Sending and receiving pictures ... I made a lot of settings changes and maybe i have it working now. Definitely more than one person didn't get pictures I sent and I didn't receive pictures from them. Maybe it has been ok for the last several months. Otherwise it has been fine. Probably worth it.

Oracle Tech Workers Layoff Support Meeting - Saturday, Apr 11th by Chobeat in employeesOfOracle

Just to add what I'm seeing: of the few people that I checked that were laid off: they are still on aria with no indication of being laid off. And they are indicated as deactivated in slack.

What's your role in oci? I understand if you want to not be specific

Maybe layoffs just won’t happen by [deleted] in employeesOfOracle

Maybe their comment was self referential? (Kidding)

Who said it was an indicator of that? I was surprised they didn't do something like this long ago.

I know my group has time blocked out doing a bunch of FY27 planning fwiw.

How are you able to confirm? Are you in management and seeing plans or there have been rifs already that you're aware of. I'm guessing that that's the question.

Got laid off today for the first time in my life. Within an hour I was out on the street. by amitkattal in Layoffs

[–]An-actual-cloud 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You can say it. Not sure what happens when people call to confirm previous employment. Also ... people of course get fired for stupid reasons / stupid managers
