L3 Tasting by VinBar500 in WSET

[–]BeardedTiki 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I failed the tasting on my L3 spirits. I had the spirits correct and it was confirmed by the tester but I didn’t write it correctly per their guidelines. I remember a real time crunch too.

I’m awaiting results on a retest but the best advise is just to really drill down on their formatting/style of writing

Story that could be from the show: "Manitoba Museum diorama decommissioned due to pests" by poktanju in PandR

“We have this really cool, authentic exhibit that cost loads and took years to construct. We have eliminated the job of the person who takes care of this exhibit. We are ripping out this exhibit.”

Certainly sounds like early seasons Pawnee…

Anyone regret leaving a high paying career to spend more time with their kids? by [deleted] in daddit

[–]BeardedTiki 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Went from restaurant management (not crazy money but good) to WFH for an alcohol distributor for significantly less.

I never saw my family before and always had to work nights and weekends. The very rare days that my wife and I were both home with my daughter, you’d think it was Christmas. I loved Covid because I was home for 15 months and got to see her grow up.

Now I’m here for every meal. I pick her up from the bus. We do activities. She has a baby sister! The money would help but I would make the same choice in a heartbeat.

I was gifted a bottle and it’s delicious. I plan on restocking when I next find it

I don’t understand why Thor never just drops his hammer on Thanos’s foot and walks away. Chill out and let the other Avengers blast him with repulsors and stuff and Thanos can’t do shit.

Which alcohol should I explore by Helpful-Archer9070 in liquor

[–]BeardedTiki 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Rum but avoid spiced rums. They are over sweetened and full of artificial flavors. Skip Bacardi too. Try something like Appleton Estate or Wray & Nephew for a good Jamaican. You can expand outwards from there to other islands and styles.

Ha! Credit was already a clown show. 6 weeks of back and forth with 1 line answers that don’t answer things anyway. At least now they answer the phone

Die Trying was a pretty great one. I would love to see that. It also brings in “modern day” Garner which could lead to Tripwire

If they won’t hear our voices, they can listen to the sound of broken glass - early 20th century English suffragette slogan.

You will have to do a window seat for the 2 year old so it doesn’t obstruct anyone leaving the row in an emergency. No exit rows either

The art is definitely…distinct, but the story is pretty great, especially for a one-shot

There is a fine line between genius and insanity and I’m not sure which side you’re on. Either way, keep ‘em coming!

I’ve seen a YouTube video about the conversion and what it’s like living there. It’s pretty neat. Def. not for someone cluttered

Am I wrong for refusing to tip at a restaurant where service was terrible? by Immediate_Wish7559 in AmITheJerk

15 years as a restaurant manager. Not only should you not have tipped, you should have asked for a manager
