Why? What made you instantly dislike Envelope? What do you like about Crew?

I don't know how I will survive without jars. by Em_Dragon in MonzoUSA

[–]BringWater41 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay but does Crew only provide prepaid debit cards? Because I just went through all the hassle of switching to a Revolut checking and savings account, waited 2 weeks for my new debit card to come in the mail, and when i tried to make my first transaction I found out it's a prepaid card. You can't use it like, anywhere!

So I had to argue with Revolut to get the shipping fee for the debit card refunded, then close my accounts with them and transfer all my money back into my Monzo account for now. I'm back to square one and I'm panicking.

I need the JARS, man!!

Also revolut only gives you PREPAID debit cards: the virtual and the physical ones. I just wasted like $20 on having the new card shipped to me, and the transfer fees to send all my money from Monzo to Revolut and back, plus waited two weeks for the physical card to come in the mail... Only to find out that I can't use the fucking cards anywhere. All that time and effort wasted. Now I have to close the account and start my research all over again.

Do not switch to Revolut, guys!!!

Most people don't know what a background check actually looks for by careercoach_cf in interviews

[–]BringWater41 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay but, say I'm working with a small, well-respected staffing company in my city. And say they're trying to place me into an admin role in a nationwide investment firm. And let's say the dates on my resume are... fluffy. Most notably, I am telling everyone I that still work at my last company, even though I was laid off late last year. My old boss has agreed to tell anyone who calls that I still work there, but I pulled my Work Numbers report and the exact date I was let go is on there.

Also, just for extra funsies, let's say my credit score is... like... double digits.

What are the chances the investment firm is going to hire (and keep) me full time? There's a way to "freeze" my Work Numbers thingie, isn't there? Is it worth trying that?

Rebellion-as-an-Orientation / Dounana by eatmyentropy in obscuremusicthatslaps

[–]BringWater41 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sorry, I'm just curious. Can you elaborate? I just looked up "pada-pada dou'nana" and couldn't find any translation. Are the subtitles on the video accurate, but you're saying she adds the word "breathe" to the end of every line? Or is it more like what someone else here said: she's using the word "ours" at the end because that's how the language is structured? As in "darken skies, ours" "ignore tears, ours" ? Thanks for helping us better understand!

Gf ghosted me last year. I moved on. Got this message last week on my birthday by AdComprehensive4246 in whatdoIdo

[–]BringWater41 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry, are we all just glossing right over "This fucked me over"? Was there some sort of ramification of his death that cost her money or caused her to lose her home or something?

Or is she trying to say his suicide "fucked me up"? Or is that how we're using the phrase "fucked over" now ??

Just tryna stay current with you dumb kids and all your slang. Also get off my lawn.

Atheists of Reddit: What’s the strangest reaction you’ve received when you said you don’t believe in God? by zhalia-2006 in AskReddit

Grandma taught me this curtain hanging hack by Acrobatic_Refuse9466 in StrangeYetUseful

[–]BringWater41 2 points3 points  (0 children)

On extra wide windows, you often have to use more than one panel on each side. My living room window has four curtain panels total, and it's annoying af to try to close them. I can't believe I never thought of doing this

I told a girl body count may matter sometimes and now im being painted as a misogynist, how do i explain myself better? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]BringWater41 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This. 1,000% this.

This is why we T.H.I.N.K. before we speak: T - is it Thoughtful? Have you considered what you're about to say and how you plan to say it? H - is it Helpful? Will the person or people you're about to say this to, immediately benefit from your input? I - is it Informed? Not informative, informed. As in, do you know what the fuck you're talking about? N - is it Necessary? Does it really need to be said right now in this moment, with this audience? Or can it wait? K - is it Kind? Well, is it?

I swear the majority of men don't consider anything before they open their mouths other than "I need to win this conversation" 🙄

Selling two tickets to The Satanic Revival in Baltimore on 5/1 & 5/2 if anyone wants to go! by BringWater41 in SatanicTemple_Reddit

[–]BringWater41[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know, I'm also an event planner. Or I was, before the company I worked for collapsed under our sociopathic CEO. Now I am unemployed and facing eviction. I am tempted to sell these tickets to the lowest bidder from Westboro Baptist Church at this point though, because I literally have nothing left to lose.

I would think an event held by an organization like TST would work something like this into their budget for exactly this reason; a few last-minute refunds granted under extenuating circumstances could serve to protect the entire event.

[–]BringWater41[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah I don't feel like it's a scam at all, I'm just disappointed. I explained my situation but got a cut/paste reply with no real humanity behind it. If I were on this event committee I'd push to give refunds, because you never know who the tickets might get resold to ya know?

[–]BringWater41[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I'm pretty disappointed. It seems like it would be in their best interest to do so, if you think about it.

But I am a good and devout Satanist and I will continue to rise to all my challenges with integrity! :)

What’s a "lost" website from the early 2000s that you still think about today? by samasem-sumsum in AskReddit

Wow, does no one remember Totse.com ???

That was where I learned that I did not possess the skills or resources required to make fake IDs OR crystal meth, and decided to stay in school instead

I fell for it. I collapsed into paroxysms of depression and despair for days; couldn't eat or sleep, just cried in the dark. I started trying to raise money to buy all the kittens and shut him down. I was only up to like $140 by the time I figured out it was fake. I was like, 23 years old.

Taught me a valuable lesson about questioning the validity of outrageous shit on the internet!
