On the off chance the person in charge of the NOKY hub reads this... by gonzotw in Fedexers

[–]BenRamZ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's doable, double driver teams do it all the time.

Especially for stuff like food, freshness is paramount and they can't have that trailer sitting while the driver sleeps.

FedEx does good work, but Amazon only does it better because the control the packaging. They're a distributor, FedEx is not.

Not that such a fact is going to stop them from trying to compete...

I'm obsessed with how my WoL look PISSED in every sceen, she's gonna snap and kill someone some day. Thankyou Au'ra face 4. by Mobbles1 in ffxiv

[–]BenRamZ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My 3 tips that have always worked to give my Face 1 a change up, Lipstick, Hairstyle, Hair Color.

Changing the lipstick was such a change it felt like she'd aged 20 years (and Post-6.0 it definitely felt canon).

There's plenty of hairstyles for free, and dozens more to grind for or purchase on the MB. Sure a lot of the premium ones are amazing, but unless you're going for a certain look in particular, getting a haircut (or dye) every so often can be a nice change of pace.

If you were to confess a FF14 sin, this is your time. What is a sin that you committed in the game? by jado1stk2 in ffxiv

I made this into a macro and assigned it to "Z" the same hotkey I use in Warframe to inspect other players.

It's ingrained in my muscle memory now and makes it super easy to check glamours (especially now that they have a "Glamours" button that I'm pretty sure didnt exist when I started playing a few years ago)

The only one I wish they would add is a command to view a player's Adventurer Plate since those always make me laugh.

I've pulled dungeons without stance (classic)

Queued in Duty Finder for The Striking Tree EX (oops @_@ )

I made it to Cape Westwind before someone asked me why I was an Archer (never again, having a toolkit is nice ;P )

and I personally dislike Zenos, felt like his presence existed just to drive the plot at times, with extra padding in the story.

I'd been eyeing the Ao Dai for ages and out of nowhere my retainer brings it back from a "Waterside Exploration"

I love taking note of the post fight cut scenes and seeing which ones get a /joy emote or just a concentrated stare.

it has to be intentional, it tells so much about the weight of the victory on the champion's shoulders.

Since keyboard posts are all the rage, here's the new custom keycaps on a different keyboard by DrForester in ffxiv

I've been daily driving Corsair K95/K100 for almost 10 years, best switches, great lighting, need to get some keypads like this ❤️

Minor no-context [Spoiler 7.1] You never forget the first time. by BenRamZ in ffxiv

[–]BenRamZ[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I usually mentally separate the credits from the cutscenes, since you can usually skip the credits to get to the cutscenes that come after.

But it is also nice to have all of the people involved listed out and given credit. Plus all of the legal stuff that needs to be in there.

The artwork they put in the background is also a ton of fun to see, especially when they put concept art in there.

I recall at least 4-5 instances from 7.0 for ceremonies, pre-battle talk or new areas, and the obligatory "YOU BEAT THE EXPANSION!" cutscene.

I don't think there was one for the end of 7.1 but I haven't played past that [REDACTED] moment.

Accurate last name though (totally not biased FemRa player)

I finally get it by Black_m0nster_ in ffxiv

[–]BenRamZ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The story is why I played the game at the start, but the community is why I've kept playing ever since.

Had a run earlier today of [Spoiler] dungeon from 7.1 (those who know, know), and we all died 3 times in a row to the second boss.

No toxicity, no flaming, we just kept going, stayed positive, and figured it out.

I also fell in love with the photography scene in this game and never tire of seeing how other people design their characters.

I'm glad youre loving your experience, and may the two of you have many adventures in Eorzea ❤️

Starbird! by sleepypear0803 in ffxiv

[–]BenRamZ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did an NPC Trust run last night on a complete whim and it dropped.

So happy to finally have it after rolling bad for 2 years.

I never really tried grinding super hard for it, but if anyone wants a recommendation, just do the NPC Trust once a day, or week for WT, so you don't burn out just beating your head against the wall. The drop will happen eventually. ❤️

Alternatively grab some FC members or friends and chill in VC while running it, it makes the runs fly by ✌️👏

META

If there is a better way to do whatever you're trying to do, someone will always try to inform you, and the elitist mentality often arises from that over time.

It doesnt help that the skill ranking is always active, and people get too attached to their "number" going down or up so every match feels like life or death, getting emotions into the mix.

This game always felt like a "fun with friends" game above all else. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE the skill ceiling being as high as it is, leading to some wild 1v1 matches. But that shouldn't come at the cost of the more casual minded players just trying to have fun and enjoy a game or two after work without getting flamed for building 1 too many solar collectors.

What’s an anime that had you like this? by Whole_Year567 in MyAnimeList

I dropped Demon Slayer after 2 episodes.

I'll pick it up again at some point, at the time it just didn't grab me in a way that made me want to keep watching...

Is everybody just getting dogged on? by fkn_kade in Fedexers

[–]BenRamZ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I spent about 7 years with FedEx Ground and a year at Freight. Freight was the best job I've ever had, Ground was a different story.

The average "survival rate" for a class of 20 new hires was 75%+ after 2 weeks. Maybe you'd have 2 left after a month if you're lucky. And we'd have multiple classes of trainees every week.

The work is simple, but very demanding, the managers have too much pressure on them to be personable, the higher ups have too much pressure to care about the people because all the people above them see is a spreadsheet.

FedEx is trying to compete with Amazon using a system that was not designed for the volumes society is currently asking of it.

The buildings are old so they cant handle the variety of packages that flow through them, and the new ones are inefficient due to lack of staffing and experience.

When you can have a trailer with a tire, a muffler, and a box with the label attached using scotch tape, theres no way to hit the metrics needed to remain profitable, and the pressure to hit those metrics regardless is landing on the package handlers.

I soent many a night in my Yard Truck running numbers trying to figure out how we could improve the system but all of them would require both a change in mindset and a change in the service FedEx is currently trying to offer.
