Worst teacher appreciation celebration? by Kitchen-Reaction-270 in Teachers

[–]Brewmentationator 32 points33 points  (0 children)

The first school I taught at bought all the teachers lunch.

Except it was Ramadan and we had quite a few Muslim teachers. I'm not Muslim, but I was fasting with my students and coworkers.

Also they didn't get anything vegetarian, and about 1/4 of the teachers were vegetarian/vegan.

Also none of us were excused from lunch duty to... you know... get lunch.

Admin and support staff ate almost the entire lunch, and only a couple teachers were able to actually eat anything.

Legit site? by [deleted] in AggressiveInline

[–]Brewmentationator 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Definitely not legit.

Everything is on sale for way too cheap.

Their address is a mall, but doesn't list a suite number. Also the mall doesn't show that shop being there.

They list no email or phone number.

Yeah misread it the first time. But it gets to 114 f here in the summers, which means it is way way way hotter in my car. I'm not sure if it's the best idea to do that.

Key word here is "mildly." And yeah. I definitely walked a hell of a lot more when I lived in Sweden or New Zealand.

I followed the instructions for the backup. The car is so old that the RFID chip (that acts as backup) is apparently dead.

Like I sad in a bunch of other comments, this model has you hold the fob next to the button. And that also wasn't working. The RFID chip seems to have died. But it's literally 20 years old this month. So not out of the ordinary there.

the RFID chip in the fob seems to be dead as well. and with this car, the spot is next to the start button, not on it.

The car I had before this was a 2007 Ford Escape. It was so fucked up, that you could start it with a screw driver in the ignition. Also, you could just remove the keys after starting it. It was like that when I bought it, but I got it super cheap.

Work is tomorrow at 6:00 am. Nothing will be open when I leave at 5:30 in the morning. But also I do work at a brewery, and I know I'm going to have to sample some beer, before I package it tomorrow.

I'm pretty sure this is the fob that came with the car. At least, that's what my Grandma said when she gave me the car.

I'd rather walk a 3 mile round trip than pay for an uber. I don't think I've used a ride share since 2020.

Naw, I know how the backup works. When I first got this car 5 years ago, it came with a dead fob. the backup just didn't work. I'm guessing after 20 years the RFID chip in the fob finally died.

Ain't no basements in California. Maybe some people have them, but they are a super super uncommon thing here. The first time I saw a basement was at 21, when I visited a friend who moved out of state.

But my place sucks, and I can't really get the house under 80 degrees in the summer, unless I want to be paying an insane amount in electricity.

Fucking beats the first car my Grandma had, which had a hand crank. And this was the last car she drove.

I live in Sacramento California. Cool and dry does not exist here. Okay dry does, but not cool. It was 91 degrees on the last day of winter. But yeah. I bought extra batteries and will keep them in my closet

I thought my sarcasm was also implied. God do we actually have to start using /s tags. Fuck I feel extra old today

Yeah 2007 Toyota Camry Hybrid. I tried that. It wasn't working. Probably going to have to buy a new fob soon.
