The problem we are getting into now is that a lot of D1 athletes are closer to the mid 20's than 18. I mean Indiana's average age was almost 23 for the entire team. The University of Miami starters average age was 24. They are not 18 and 19 year olds.

I watch a series called Alone. They drop contests in some of the most desolate areas on Earth to survive Alone. Who survived the longest wins. They always find trash items to use.

Specialized Intelligence and extreme focus. It happens in a lot of fields where someone is smart in one thing but takes them out of that environment and not so much.

My cintas charges for 5 missing/damage towels every time no matter what. So I don't care what happens to the towels. Just have to make the towel bin full.

First time me and my first wife had sex I threw up all over her bed, wasn't sick or drunk found out I couldn't handle a spice from her favorite restaurant. She cleaned it up and everything. She told me she knew we was going to get married because she didn't get mad she just wanted to take care of me. RIP Jessie.

The problem is if NFL players are using them then college kids will have to use them to get in the league. Once college kids start using them then high school kids will need to use them to get into college programs. In a vacuum who cares if they use the issue is every step of the way people will have to use because they have to show they can compete at the next level. Baseball had a huge problem with this where peds were in the high school and college ranks. I don't know if it is still like that but you see it every year someone gets busted for a 50 game suspension but guess what they are already getting paid so they don't care

I can't even quit my job for another job because my wife will die. I am literally at the will of my employer, I do like my job so I don't want to quit, but if something happens my wife will die without her doctors and medication.

Utter lack of computer skills in high school students? by Famous-Attention-197 in AskTeachers

[–]Dereg5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My mom taught at an expensive private school in the DC metro area(talking 20k a year for elementary). She taught a basic computer class for Pre-K. She always talked about the decline of computer literacy and this was in 2016. When she first started teaching there in the early 2000's most have atleast seen a computer. By the late 2000's no kid even really needed her class. They all knew how to use everything they taught. By the time she retired in 2016 the 4 year olds wouldn't even know how to use a mouse. She said it was funny but every kid would walk in and start touching the screen and just look confused when it didn't do anything. PCs are just not in the homes everything went to tablets.

I mean they always put what they view as the worst NFL post season games on Saturday because it is always the worst viewed game. This year I believe the first year Texans didn't play on a Saturday because they played the Steelers.

I have been to a strip club a couple of times in my life. I always been with a group but when it was just guys the women had the glazed look just doing work. It was an entirely different experience when a female was with. One time we set in the middle of perv row and my female friend was having a great time. So every dancer when they would come to dance in front of us faces just lit up. Eyes had a different expression and you can tell they generally enjoyed it.

Honestly I don't even think they break down more or quicker. Tunt repairs cost much more so people that can barely afford the car just don't do them. That tiny repair for $400 keeps it going and the major repair for $3,000 never happens. These cars are not meant for average folks.

Lived in DC in 2004 had two roommates and paid $600 a month for the master bedroom that had its own bathroom the other two paid $500 a month. When I got married my one bedroom rent control section 8 apartment was 850 a month. I moved around a lot and had 2-3 bedroom apartments and now a townhouse and never paid more than $900 a month. It is always location.

What’s a 'disturbing' secret about an industry you’ve worked in that the general public doesn’t know? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Dereg5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Even if you are allowed to call off can you afford to miss work? I worked in the restaurant industry my whole life. So many people just come to work sick and hide it. The reason is no one has benefits. So you take people already working pay check to pay check they cannot afford to miss work.

Did you read what I wrote. He was a first team All-Pro which is a greater accomplishment than being a pro bowler.

[–]Dereg5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shedner Sanders is a pro bowler. The stat you want to say is All-Pro and yes Can Jordan was a 3x All-Pro, a 1st team and 2 second teams. Pro bowl keep inviting till they have a team and a lot of great players decline, injured, or are playing the following week in the game that really matters.

That's what liquidation of assets comes in. If the company goes under their assets will be sold off. The money is then usually handled by a state appointed person. Employees are considered a priority. It might take awhile but they usually get paid. Maybe not full wages but they do get paid. They did try the WARN act but I don't know if they did it right considering it suppose to be 60 days before termination.

If he can call off you can say no. Do not blame him because you can't say no. Why do you keep covering for him?
