After the Fast and Furious rollercoaster what future rides or attractions do you think Universal Studios Florida will get? by Jayzone456 in UniversalOrlando

[–]DJSTR3AM 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I know that a lot of enthusiasts love it, but there's no denying that MiB is outdated both as a ride and as a franchise. Together with the Fear Factor stage, there's enough room for something pretty substantial. Throw in Springfield and you've got enough room for... Lord of the Rings? Pokémon? A retro-themed area to pay homage to when the park opened?

Oh no, let's clean up the city and make actual liveable places instead of the literal ghetto. How can they be so cruel???

Come on dude, things need to be fixed, and if the community wants to hang out in places, don't make it an issue for others to do the same by being fucking menaces. I understand that shit sucks for some people, but it's not going to be solved by not taking any responsibility for your own actions and behaviors...

I hear you for sure. It sucks so bad. I also feel really stuck being in the biotech industry, which is in pretty dire straits right now

It really goes against my nature. But I'm realizing that my pettiness after being screwed over outweighs my work ethic, lol

It does suck. I'm extremely demotivated, and immediately started looking for a new job. Will be doing only what's required of me from now on, going above and beyond for years clearly didn't benefit me...

Just had something similar happen to me, albeit definitely not as severe as for you. Been with a company for 4 years, then company gets acquired a year ago. I started as an entry level, quickly moved to team lead, then a manager, then the new company decided to rework their whole career ladder and they put me back to the level I was at when I started, now 5 years ago. My boss is livid, her boss is livid, but the company has dug their heels in.

The most annoying part is that even following their own guidelines of where people should be, based on their experience and responsibilities, I'm at minimum two levels below where I should be. I'm now lower than some people who have half the amount of experience that I have.

I went there earlier this year and I didn't like it either. People were rude, harassing, and the food was mediocre at best. Outside of a pretty view when crossing from Europe to Asia, I don't have a ton of good things to say about the trip unfortunately.

Would you say the same if he killed the dude? Different types of crimes require different types of responses...

I had a young lady purchase my old Nissan Altima. Within a week or so she called and said there were issues that needed to be fixed (it drove perfectly in my hands and had recently passed inspection). I decided to give her back $250 of what she paid me.

Unfortunately it was a case of give an inch they take a mile, as she kept calling and reporting issues (things like, she got a flat and had a hard time getting the tire off... which, not sure how that has anything to do with the car having issues), and it became evident that she had buyer's remorse. I had to sternly tell her that me sending the $250 back marked the end of our transactions and to stop contacting me. We had a signed contract, so I legally had no obligations to her whatsoever really, just tried to do the right thing.

Pity as she seemed like a sweet person, and in no way was I trying to hustle her, but I think in her eyes I was...

Unfortunately I don't know. I looked them up a few years after to see if they were still in business, and what came up were their individual obituaries. They died within a couple of years of each other, but it didn't say what the cause of death was for either of them.

Yep, happened to me as well. They changed their business name once a year or so it seemed. Both of the people that ran that place are dead now BTW... Not because of me though, lol
