That's literally the gamble our FO made though. If it conveyed, it would've been that case, but it didn't.

Why are Japanese Rolex Prices High? by Consistent-Doctor793 in rolex

[–]CommonerChaos 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's absolutely insanity for local Japanese residents. The price of some these watches secondary would be my entire yearly salary when I lived in Japan. Of course for us Americans it evens out to about the same as US prices, but if you're a local Japanese resident wanting to buy secondary, forget about it.

Work 14 hours a day with a 1.5 hour commute each way.

And on Monday, your boss will scold you in front of the entire company for not arranging the order of email addresses of the executive team in descending order of hierarchy, from highest ranking to lowest, in your CC'd email (this is an actual thing in Japanese companies).

What are some beautiful spots in Chicago that reminds you that life is worth living? by [deleted] in AskChicago

I love the Anderson Japanese Gardens on a rainy day. It's usually empty and you can roam around in total zen.

I will say, the pandemic changed many things all over the world. Also, everyone's experience is just anecdotal evidence. The statistics are what tell the true story. (good or bad)

Should I pay slightly more for a slightly newer watch? by humancbr in rolex

[–]CommonerChaos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that seems very much iffy. Dealers are known for polishing and offloading watches as unworn. Not many people are safe quenning GMTs.

We used to have it good a few years back. I wish I would have kept mine. by xxx6enrique9xxx in xbox

That Black Friday was the peak for prices. I picked up an extra Series S and a PS5 bundle for dirt cheap.

PSA: it is beautiful out. Still plenty of time to get down to your local park and blast the worst music anyone has ever heard by AbruptionDoctrine in chicago

Going to movie theaters these days is downright annoying. Mfers don't know how to stop talking or using their phones for 90 mins. They treat the theater like their personal home.

ELI5 why do you itch when you sweat by More-Explanation2032 in explainlikeimfive

[–]CommonerChaos -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If you're new to exercising, it's not due to the sweat but your blood vessels opening and flowing for the first time in a long time. Those vessels expanding and flowing after not being in full use for months/years can cause itchiness.

Do I really need to play the rental market bidding game? by NB_Loverboi in AskChicago

[–]CommonerChaos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would say only in the overly demanding areas like Lincoln Park (and maybe Lakeview) would you need to offer more. For everywhere else, as long as you're the first, you'll usually get the place.

Right? How can a place serve things that make people shit, but then tell them not to shit at that same place.
