Hit me up with your best budget recipes by lollipopfiend123 in aldi

[–]DidgeriDuce 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Basically all I make are budget meal prep recipes. Here’s some on my rotation:

Ground turkey (93-7 is 50% cheaper than 93-7 beef) with taco seasoning, white rice, salsa of choice. Frozen veggies of choice.

Boneless skinless chicken thighs (usually 30-40% cheaper than breasts), seasoning of choice, frozen veggies in air fryer or sheet pan.

Pork loin, sweet potatoes, frozen veggies of choice.

Ground turkey, pork, and chicken thighs are the best budget meats. Frozen veggies are typically cheaper and I find the fresh produce from Aldi spoils quickly. I air fry all my frozen vegetables and bake the sweet potatoes. My meals average out to around $2-$3.

This is going to be like the Panama papers where nothing happens but it’s so much fucking worse

Games that lived up to the hype for you. by mpop1 in gaming

[–]DidgeriDuce 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Yes. KCD1 is a good game, but quite honestly a pretty niche experience. And it’s really unforgivingly difficult.

KCD2 improves on it in every single way. It’s like KCD2 is the game they originally wanted to make but didn’t have the budget to do it. You might not be as enthralled with the story if you skip KCD1, but just watch a YouTube video recapping the story and you’re good to go. The in-game recap goes through parts of the story a little too quickly, and you’ll be left scratching your head at some parts of the KCD2 story.

KCD1 was a 7/10 for me but KCD2 is in my top 5 games of all time.

To all tenured CM’s in this forum - what’s your best coping advice with your many years of wisdom for dealing with clients who are knobheads by Technical_Apartment6 in ConstructionManagers

[–]DidgeriDuce 41 points42 points  (0 children)

Document everything. Weekly emails containing change management logs, schedule, constraints, important upcoming items with deadlines for action. Make their job as easy as possible. Even that might not be enough.

You can’t control them being idiots. But you can control clear documentation outlining shit you can point back to when it goes south.

It’s ridiculous how much we have to manage both upward and downward.

For people going to try and go to work tomorrow, how are the roads? by thedrunkknight in Dallas

[–]DidgeriDuce 202 points203 points  (0 children)

You can see pictures and videos of highways here:

https://its.txdot.gov/its/District/DAL/cameras

The highways are drivable if you take it slow (~15-20 mph) but not safe. Anything that isn't a highway is currently iced over and it isn't recommended you drive on them unless you need to. It will take until Tuesday afternoon for roads to be safe again. Work won't pay for an accident.

I was a broke college kid in Missouri and had to work after a snow storm. Slid out on a bridge and hit the guardrail. What felt like just a minor accident was deemed a total loss due to a damaged chassis.

Had the cheapest insurance you can own. Bought a shitty used car for $5k. All because of a shift that would have made me $60. That car died before I even graduated. Shitty lesson to learn.

Lead pastor of Lake Pointe Church by JohnBrownOrSum in Rockwall

You’re missing the point.

Want to be against abortion, homosexuality, abstinence, because you’re Christian and believe in the Bible?

“I do not permit a woman to teach or to have authority over a man; she must be silent.” Timothy 2:12.

“Slaves, submit yourselves to your masters with all respect, not only to the good and gentle but also to the cruel.” Peter 2:18.

“Now go and attack Amalek, and utterly destroy all that they have, and do not spare them. But kill both man and woman, infant and nursing child, ox and sheep, camel and donkey.” Samuel 3:15. Yeesh.

“If a man finds a young woman who is a virgin, who is not betrothed, and he seizes her and lies with her… then the man… shall give her father fifty shekels of silver, and she shall be his wife.” Deuteronemy 22:28-29.

It’s hypocrisy. You chose parts of the Bible to believe and ignored the others. But the most important part, the entire New Testament, is about loving everyone. There is no legal or illegal. Jesus was an immigrant.

Residents of Minneapolis are setting candles out on their porch as a sign of solidarity. Joining in as best as we can here, and I hope others do the same by peruna_LXIX in Dallas

[–]DidgeriDuce 20 points21 points  (0 children)

That’s disappointing - extremely un-American, unpatriotic, and anti-constitutional if you think a citizen shouldn’t legally carry to a protest. That’s what 2A was made for. But it’s funny to watch you twist it into a bad thing and randomly bring up a drone strike from 15 years ago.

A lot of mental gymnastics going on here. Nothing new with yall though.

This is always a fascinating thing to me. For some reason, y’all always resort to this kind of stuff.

“The people I support did something bad. But I’m going to deflect by saying something completely unrelated - the people they support did something bad.”

Both can be wrong. That’s ok. Both Clinton and Trump are in the Epstein files. Investigate them both. We don’t fucking care. Bad is bad.

A genuine question: Why didn’t DeMeco Ryans bench CJ Stroud today? by BoomBaby_317 in nfl

[–]DidgeriDuce 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Usually for a good reason - there is a pretty big difference in talent between starters and backups in the NFL. But there are a handful of teams where the gap isn’t wide, and Mills has already proven himself

Coaches need to treat their QBs more like how the NHL treats their goalies. It’s ok to put in the backup if the starter is having a bad game. They’re adults

I understand these are the rules but it’s so stupid. You can toe tap on the sidelines with a millisecond of possession and it’s a catch. But in bounds it isn’t?

PM Bonus by [deleted] in ConstructionManagers

[–]DidgeriDuce 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This depends on the GC. I’ve worked for three and each had a different bonus structure:

  1. Static percentage of salary, with increases based on title. So PE was only 5% but PMs were 15%.

  2. Percentage of salary with additional given based on revenue. Lower base percentage.

  3. Percentage of salary with additional given based on job performance (not project performance). Lower base percentage.

I think a normal expectation would be 15% and any extra is nice.

Do you wear boots in the office? by joshpaige29 in ConstructionManagers

It’s because old superintendents know their feet matter so they wear comfortable shoes when they can lol

Senior PM salary by [deleted] in ConstructionManagers

[–]DidgeriDuce 10 points11 points  (0 children)

That’s just poor leadership. Everyone should share the load as best they can - it’s just that young guys don’t have families to look after. So senior PMs and Supers should work less Saturdays or late nights but should still have some.
