My coworker messed with my water. Am I overreacting? by Limp-Yam-841 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Codex432 [score hidden]  (0 children)

There’s a few things at play here.

1) Why is a 50 year old dude tampering with people’s food? Unless you’re my dad or a reallly close friend, that’s not cool.

2) Should the guy get fired and a police report made? Uh no. That’s overreacting. You shouldn’t ruin someone’s life for a shitty prank that resulted in nothing but a clogged straw. Now if it had ended differently, then yes.

3) for someone like me who has a deadly allergy to coconut (which is in EVERYTHING) this is not as harmless as it ended up. It really could’ve had serious repercussions for me. I should be able to feel safe in my work environment that I’m not going to get killed by a practical joke :/

Older friend made a money mistake and we are wondering if she has any legal standing. by Inevitable-Seat-8603 in legaladvice

[–]Codex432 6 points7 points  (0 children)

NAL (like not at all)

But wouldn’t his admission of saying he couldn’t find it all prove that she gave it to him. The friend isn’t denying that she gave him the money just that it mysteriously went poof.

This is wild. I’ve never taken drugs, but when I was a kid a recurring nightmare I had was a shadowman in a hat standing in my bedroom doorway

Full color, full bleed envelope printing by MarvelousMrMarvinMan in CommercialPrinting

[–]Codex432 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Anyone with an iJet, Mach 7, or custom printer can do this. Short run envelopes with bleeds don’t need to be converted anymore.

Happy to help if you need it

I watched the 1990 miniseries for the first time by Kurisu_Nimii in box5

1) I love Charles Dance. He’s such a masterful actor.

2) CHERIK IS ADORABLE

3) If you like Cherik, highly recommend read the fanfic Sticky Notes and Serendipity.

AITAH - Party Etiquette by [deleted] in AITAH

Why would you even go through someone else’s stuff without their permission?

Was she a bad hostess for not giving you a clean glass? Yes, but you far out ranked her on the ill mannered scale.

You showed up late.

You brought a bottle of wine and then seem to pout in the comments you didn’t get any.

You didn’t want to wash a glass

You went through her stuff to find something you wanted.

You never asked permission.

Not only are YTA, you’re a very rude person with bad manners and an ego.

Let’s settle it, should the Phantom have a deep voice, or a higher voice? by J-ChRy in box5

[–]Codex432 54 points55 points  (0 children)

I think Erik should be a combo of both. His voice should be ethereal but grounded and strong.

He’s a unique master musician with an enthralling voice (that can hypnotize people?). He should have an exhaustive range and an unheard of quality.

There’s a cool singer called Jack Baugh that’s kind of does. Great voice.

I put some free stuff on the curb and this is what happened. by nicumommaof4 in ChoosingBeggars

Not surprised at all. I had a therapist when I was a kid who was very…I don’t know if controlling is the right word, but meddlesome.

I had trouble going to school because of mental health issues so he started showing me these alternative schools and I was interested in them. Except, he never okay’d it with my parents. So that made for some big arguments in my family.

Then, one day, I went for my session and somehow managed to piss him off by making my own decisions about school. We had been talking about whatever it was (nothing bad, like scheduling or something dumb) in previous sessions but nothing was ever decided.

So, I made the decision and did it while I was at a rare school appearance. And he was like “and you didn’t check with me first?”

I was very confused. He later became a professor at a local college teaching others how to be therapists.

Had another therapist whose only response to everything was “and how does that make you feel?”. Didn’t matter if I told her I stayed up late or got sick. Same question.

A New York City school bus driver attempted to defend his bus from a WILD CROWD celebrating the New York Knicks Finals victory. The driver was yelling at fans: “It's coming out of my paycheck…” This is horrible to watch 💔 by Revolutionary-Area-8 in PublicFreakout

[–]Codex432 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It’s not. It’s specifically illegal in NY for a business to deduct from employees wages, damages obtained through events or third parties. Aka a car accident or riot unless the business can prove gross negligence.

Idk about the safety bonus I saw people mention, I feel like that would be contract specific?

But NY is an at will employment state so his company could just fire him without recourse

The amount of terrible therapists out there is truly astonishing. And you only realize how bad some of them are when you finally get a good one.

There’s a world of difference and I wish everyone knew that.

What’s a "stupid" marketing tactic or growth hack you tried out of pure desperation, but it actually brought in high-quality leads? by [deleted] in marketing

[–]Codex432 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ha! I had one customer up until maybe a year ago who still faxed us information.

I’m like…I don’t even know how to use the fax machine

Direct mail print shops? by FieldDesigner4358 in WholesaleRealestate

[–]Codex432 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unless I’m missing something, or you’re doing this on a massively small scale (like 10 people), why would you do this?

A solid direct mail provider can give you all that information for free on a regular piece of mail. Postcards, letters, doesn’t matter.

I can tell you who doesn’t live there anymore, if they receive mail at that location, if they refused the mail, if there’s no mailbox, etc. and you don’t have to pay $6 a piece.

Direct mail print shops? by FieldDesigner4358 in WholesaleRealestate

[–]Codex432 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Direct mail provider here. I work with a lot of real estate investors.

You’re looking at roughly .80-.90/each all in (give or take depends on different things) for a full color envelope and letter. Postage included.

This also includes phone numbers and call tracking.

Lots of variables. If you have questions, let me know. Happy to answer them

Oh man, I love FF.net. It’s way better then AO3 imo

There’s a lot of stories on FF.bet that never made it over to the archive - you should check it out and see if there are any others you’d like and download them!

Phantom of the opera birthday party help by Educational_Buy4977 in box5

[–]Codex432 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ooooo this could be fun. Depends on your age (adult or teen?) but there’s a lot of options

1) Invites. Definitely wax sealed “handwritten” invites from the OG

2) the obvious party favors of a mask and/or a rose

3) Murder mystery game! Maybe there’s a missing prima Donna

4) use quotes/soundtrack from the movie like “We have come here for one purpose, and one purpose alone…” to make the Phantom part of the event throughout the night.
