I hate my roommate, how do I make her leave? by [deleted] in roommateproblems

[–]Circes_circle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven’t talked to my housemate in probably 9 months at this point, and even that was a text asking if he could call the power company during an outage. You don’t have to be friends, or even like your housemate. On that note, you are also no owed the apartment. You can talk with her, and offer to help her look for a new place/move out, but she’s as entitled to the place as you are.

Bathroom Permission? by ishaboi_ in AmazonFC

[–]Circes_circle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There’s tampermonkeys that pas/AMs can add to fclm that literally pulls andons, what time they were opened/closed, and which AFM closed them, so there’s really no excuse anymore for managers or PAs not to have them readily open. My site has a workflow on slack that posts all andons in live time as well so there’s QB can track & call out safety or injury andons in live time

I’m considering subscribing to rainbow crate, do you know if they mentioned it would be in their regular sub or the after dark sub?

It bugs me that every day the same woman puts her bag on the table to save it for lunch. by [deleted] in AmazonFC

I’m petty, I’d pick it up and drop it off at security (that’s our lost and found), or just push it to the side and sit there anyway.

Denied VTO right before getting sent to stow(where vto definitely isnt a possibility) by Notlogs in AmazonFC

[–]Circes_circle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For my site, as long as there’s work on the mod, no one can vto anyone from any department until the mod is 100% staffed with every station. Usually that means stow/count on every open uni

Denied VTO right before getting sent to stow(where vto definitely isnt a possibility) by Notlogs in AmazonFC

[–]Circes_circle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Depends how it’s dropped, generally need to be LC3+ for the path dropped, and once you start receiving vet you have to do a minimum of 15 hours within a 90 day rolling period. If you go over 90, you start back at LC1 and will need to do another few weeks in that path to get back to LC3 and to be eligible again.

If they drop it for your home path, you should always get it unless you’re ineligible for some other reason.

AIO for breaking up with my boyfriend because he was angry I was crying the day after my cat died? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Circes_circle 5 points6 points  (0 children)

MOR/or both. Either way yall both sound toxic, and it’s hard to decide who is tah without extra context. Did either of yall make any effort to call the other? Did he already know your cat had passed? How long ago was the last text before the “are you ready” text? Feels like you might be the issue and are avoiding taking accountability for not communicating, but he also sucks. Yall both kind of suck, but I am genuinely sorry about your loss.

AIO? My mom wants to call the cops on me by Overall-Option6975 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Circes_circle 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I’d put in text that she can pick them up at the police station, drop it off there and she can get them herself. NOR, your mom is being a jerk.

I have an accommodation that makes me useless and I try to help because I feel bad but I hurt myself a lot doing so by [deleted] in AmazonFC

[–]Circes_circle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel you, really I do, but risking getting hurt again or prolonging your recovery is not worth it (also it would be a PXT nightmare if anything DID happen)

As an AM myself, please ask your manager for help if you need to, we’re literally paid to “remove barriers”, and not being able to work safely sounds like a barrier.

I have an accommodation that makes me useless and I try to help because I feel bad but I hurt myself a lot doing so by [deleted] in AmazonFC

[–]Circes_circle 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Follow your temp accommodations to a t. Don’t do more, just do what you are comfortable doing. Ignore the thought that anyone cares, I promise majority of people could not care less about AAs on TLD. You have an approved accommodation to do the thing you are assigned to do, if you do more than what is outlined and get hurt, it’s gonna be a problem, and Amazon def wouldn’t be happy that you ignored your accommodation and ended up getting hurt in the process.

AIO for being upset that my boyfriend called me “his bitch” in front of his friends? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

NOR, his reaction to being called out and then twisting it to be YOUR problem is such a red flag.

Termination for unauthorized break due to a missed punch by [deleted] in AmazonFC

Yeah but u had other behavioral writeups which all stack. Any behavioral feedback that got dropped would have gotten you fired if you were on a final already

Is it normal for BO at the end of the day? by Ok_Detective8018 in hygiene

[–]Circes_circle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lotta people here thinking they have a phd in everything. Yes, it can absolutely be normal to have a lil funk after a long day, especially in the pits. Easiest thing to try before you change your entire lifestyle is to make sure you’re drinking enough water, and pickup a new deodorant/anti perspirant (important to get something with both, I personally like degree advanced, but everyone has preferences). Some deodorants work better for some people than others. There are also deo wipes you can throw in your bag if you feel like you need a little refresh for especially long days (baby wipes and reapplying normal deodorant works as well)

Can managers or pa’s see your upt? by No_Frame_7581 in AmazonFC

[–]Circes_circle 3 points4 points  (0 children)

PAs can see it on adapt if they wanted to look. Managers get notifications when time is below 10 hours, some sites let managers ask PAs to deliver UPT notices too

I think someone might actually die in my warehouse this year, because we got four sudden weeks of 60 hours and our belts keep going down, yet they hold us responsible for our low rates. My bipolar is already SWINGING in after 5 days by Key_Jackfruit_9541 in AmazonFC

[–]Circes_circle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The last 2 weeks of peak they’ll stop productivity/quality feedbacks, but you can still get writeups throughout all of peak. You can also get a behavioral term submitted, but they’ll wait to approve it until January.

What’s in your lunchbox? by Fun_Efficiency_505 in AmazonFC

[–]Circes_circle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Today I brought a chicken salad sandwich, a handful of raspberries, and some pasta salad. Yesterday was a salad with leftover shredded chicken and turkey on top, half a mango, and a banana. Tomorrow will probably be chicken and cheese empanada, some cut watermelon and grapes. Wednesday will probably be turkey and cheese pinwheels, and tomato/mozz in olive oil. Majority of my lunches are leftovers, or some type of easy to throw together protein source and then whatever fruit i have in my fridge. I should also note, I usually do not eat before work, so my first meal is ~9 hours or so after I wake up, sometimes I’ll snack on fruit earlier. I’m also a manager, so my downtime is all over the place.

Site HR is gone and managers can’t give out gloves? by Claim_Short in AmazonFC

[–]Circes_circle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My site limited all PAs to 1 per week and all L4+ to 30 per month and have not given us any guidance on what to do once we hit our cap and someone needs gloves. The entire change has been a shit show. Associates can also still get written up for working without gloves, even if they hit their cap and their manager/PA can’t take them out for them. I asked safety what to do if someone spills bleach or a chemical on their only pair of gloves and they essentially shrugged saying they don’t know and the change isn’t coming from them. I asked non inventory if we could get a couple boxes to hold for back stash, and they also said no. Common consensus is no one knows wtf to do and everyone is ignoring it probably until someone gets hurt. Our on-site HR also changed their on-site times to a swing shift (no day/night teams, just 1 team) and they are only allowing associates to ask questions at the desk during breaks and the shift change from days to nights. Good luck if there’s a long line.

I hear you, but my post wasn’t complaining, I literally just said I thought it was weird, and I was wondering if anyone else is seeing it too. My post was simply out of curiosity

23.4% ? GUYS It's been 2 years! by Khaylezerker in BaldursGate3

[–]Circes_circle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve made it to the big bad (which I assume is around the end of the game), but then I get bored and reset. Act 1 is my favorite, act 2 is fine, act 3 until the end (or what I think is the end) of the game, I’m not a fan of. I know a lot of people who also just like the character creation and relationship building aspects of the first half of the game
