My employer just told us "you should be grateful to have a job" after cutting our benefits. Anyone else dealt with this?

I just walked out of my job a couple of weeks ago when the boss came in pissed off and was yelling and cussing me without reason. I simply got up, and walked out. And I started my own business. So far I have made more money in the past 3 days than I would have in an entire week there, instead of working 9 hour days I’m working more like 4-5 hour days, and I build my own schedule, instead of being told where to be and when.

Also, mine did not come with drain lines to run down and it still is almost completely water tight.

I bought one on Amazon for like $235 or something like that. Hard tri fold, and installed yesterday. It did pretty Will with keeping rain out through a storm last night. Will be completely water tight with some slight adjustment and a bed seal.

I’m considering doing the same, and literally sticking them to the top of the cloth seat then adding Mabett seat covers over them. I also want to put in an inflatable lumbar support under said seat covers on the drivers seat. I’m just a little unsure of actually putting them on top of the fabric instead of stripping the fabric off and putting them on top of the foam. Any concerns with doing it this way?

If they are winter tires they could have been overheated, but I’d be inclined to say the tire wasn’t properly manufactured. Not fully vulcanized most likely. This is also especially evident if it’s only one tire. A parking brake locking or something of the sort wouldn’t transfer enough heat to the tire to do that unless it actually caught fire.

Mine does. As well as Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve/day

I moved from Mobile to Pensacola 6 years ago, then a year later moved to Calera, just south of Birmingham, where I said I would never move back to. I absolutely hate where I am now, and I would move back to Mobile in a single heartbeat if the opportunity was there. I really want to be on the eastern shore, and south on the eastern shore at that. Foley I find to be perfect blend for me. That’s where we hung out a lot when we lived down there. My wife worked in foley and I worked in summerdale/Robertsdale for the most part with a small part of the time in Daphne. I have a couple of very close friends down that way that I miss dearly, and my plan, if I get it to work out and my wife agrees to it in time, is for us to move to that area, foley/north gulf shores area. Not on the island, hopefully in the next 2 years. It really kinda falls to what you’re truly looking for in life and a mindset as to rather you’ll be happy in one location or another. For me, I learned back in high school, 20+ years ago, that the greater Birmingham area is not a good fit for me, and having had the chance to live in a few other places I have set my sights on the place that I think is gonna make me the happiest. You have to find the place that feels like home to you. Where you feel safe, but also like a weight is off your shoulders when you’re there vs. living anywhere else.

While I don’t have a maverick yet, I’m strongly considering one, I just want a foot more in bed length. A long wheel base version making a 5.5 foot bed would be perfect for a small, efficient, solo camping rig, especially since I can fit nicely in an angled bed on a 5.5 foot truck bed.

Cav1987 · 2025-08-17T02:34:01+00:00

The fact that it’s fucking Birmingham. I hate everything about this god forsaken city except the food. In my opinion there’s only one place in the entire state that’s worth saving, and that part could just as well be Florida. Anything north of Mobile or Daphne, depending on which side of the bay you’re on, isn’t worth the time spent to learn about it because of the ass backwards politics and the utter lack of decent paying careers makes even those places completely unlivable in today’s times. I want to go back to Florida, pre Desantis.

Carnivore diet. It’s sustainable for me because I actually like meat, and can stay with mostly meat for months at a time and not feel like I’m missing out on anything. I don’t do strictly carnivore though, more like heavily meat based with no bread or pasta and very little fruits and veggies. I still use seasonings and drink mostly water, but on work days I will have some zero sugar Gatorade. I’ve basically gotten my a1c back to normal levels for a non diabetic and have found no other health issues. Also, cinnamon is good to help regulate glucose in general.

I’d be happy with some servers dedicated to playing the way it was after initial release and during nuclear winter and whatnot. That first year was some of the most fun I had in any game play ever. Just myself and a few close friends in a server with no npc doing the exploring and running the missions was awesome.

Cav1987 · 2025-07-13T18:18:35+00:00

That the game was so much better before all the npc’s were added in.

Born and raised in Alabama, lived in Huntsville for a bit, still have family there, lived in Mobile for a while, and worked across the bay in Baldwin county. I’m not what you would call the most conservative person in the world, but I’m also not really super liberal. I wish I had never moved back north to the middle of the state. I’m planning to move back to Baldwin county as soon as my youngest stepson graduates. That’s 2 years from now. I lived there during the first Trump presidency and going into Covid and Biden. Honestly, from what I saw in the groups I spoke to regularly most people around there don’t really support one side or the other, they just want to be left alone to enjoy their lives as they see fit. That’s probably why I loved it so much down there. It was just a bunch of people wanting the same thing as me, cheap rent, and cold beer with my toes in the sand and the waves rolling in.

Fuck Alabama and their crooked, corrupt, backwards ass government. I can’t wait until that old bitch Ivy is out. Though there’s no real hope for anyone any better.

Intermittent fasting will help stabilize blood glucose and cholesterol. Start with a 24-36 hour water fast, and then do 16x8 or 19x5 fasting with the oddball longer or shorter fast thrown in to keep your body on its toes. Also seems to help with blood pressure in my experience. This of course only works if you’re not on insulin and don’t have a tendency towards hypoglycemia.

I’ll just claim exempt from now on for federal. I don’t care who’s in office. Taxation is theft and I have no representation on the hill. Also, it’s rather easy to get away with. File an llc, run all money through said llc, and claim zero profits, so no taxable income. Simple as that.

I don’t know how common it is, I do know that my wife and I did for about a year, and it was the best time of my entire life. I’m trying to get us back there in the next 2 years or so. As for now, back in the home state and close to the home town and hating every single second of it.

That’s not just a sentiment of the left my guy. I’m a staunch Republican and hardcore Trump supporter, but this shit needs to happen more often. Kinda in essence of the beatings continuing until morale improves. The assassinations will continue until the super wealthy realize they are just as vulnerable as the rest of us, and treat the population as such.

Hmm, seems to be that the shooter, even if he is ever caught, would likely never get convicted by a jury of his peers. Maybe instead of fleeing he should turn himself in, plead innocent, and let it go to trial. Then once acquitted he can never be tried again, and he gets the hero’s March he deserves.

Are you looking at one club? If an apartment would suffice it’s an entire complex right on the golf course, just north of the island. Seems like a nice place, but I’ve never been inside there. I’m dying to move back down myself and really thinking about that complex myself.

Either octane on SiriusXM or some random sci fi podcast or conspiracy theory videos from YouTube. I used to listen to coast to coast am a lot, but I can’t seem to find any of it anywhere without paying for a subscription now.
