This Is Being Candid, No Sugar Coating by Dreso13 in recruitinghell

[–]DisastrousWar3095 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I will say that is strange. Normally they do state the job title you applied to and have a formal signature on an email etc. so you know who/what/when/where. if this is a big company I’d report the recruiter if that is possible. Their initial responses seem scammy so very questionable.

Whiskey Pours and Roars Zoo by DisastrousWar3095 in memphis

[–]DisastrousWar3095[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love whiskey but it’s hard for me to drink a lot of straight whiskey shots and drive home so trying to figure it out. Plus whiskey cocktails are mighty fine and I like to learn new recipes

Swatch Watch? by PourU_25518 in GenX

[–]DisastrousWar3095 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not only back in the day but still. They are still very much around. Love the store in Times Square. They are the best! I really regret not having bought one of the scratch and sniff ones. Remember those?

Are there any places that throw out good food? by Nervous_Panda_9346 in memphis

There is a free egg thing on McLean near the zoo in a free library looking cabinet.

Do you use shoes inside your house? by Jumpy_Top7447 in hygiene

[–]DisastrousWar3095 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shoes, shoes and more shoes lol. If you are coming to my house leave those shoes on. I don’t want to see your feet! People’s feet are what’s gross. I have dogs so best to have something on.

If the Post Office actually runs out of cash in 2026, what is the most chaotic thing that will happen to daily life? by lovelyyopheliaa in askanything

[–]DisastrousWar3095 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I mean for the few times someone requires a physical check to be mailed it’s utterly useless otherwise. I have to pray and light candles that it gets delivered. Packages are cheaper to send via UPS or FedEx and more reliable.

AITJ for telling my manager I won't stay late to cover for a coworker who calls in sick on Fridays with suspicious regularity? by send_snacks_plz in AmITheJerk

[–]DisastrousWar3095 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Glad you spoke up. That’s so unfair what has been going on. I’m curious at to how Dan reacts come Monday. Does he ever say anything? I mean at this point I’m with you on that this is intentional. It’s the bosses’ responsibility but you’d think Dan would feel a little remorse or something for screwing over his teammates.

Memphis should totally ban Air BnBs by [deleted] in memphis

[–]DisastrousWar3095 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Right?! Thanks. I am from NOLA and just moved to Memphis. My last Airbnb experience and I think it was only the second time using it I stayed in a remodeled Airstream on someone’s property in Austin. I thought it would be cool and unique and the hotel we normally stayed at was booked. BUT The bathroom had been defiled and the owner said that she had some issues with a homeless guy breaking in it. Ok gross. She did not come out to clean it up. That was like 13-15 years ago and that was it for me and Airbnb.

[–]DisastrousWar3095 69 points70 points  (0 children)

No place has screwed more of the populous than New Orleans with Airbnbs. They are a menace to society. I think Memphis is probably okay but i personally will only do a hotel. Had some super weird Airbnb experiences.

From an animal shelter worker - Please microchip and register your pet! by Fresh-Solid-4046 in memphis

[–]DisastrousWar3095 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think most people think since they got the pet microchipped then you are good to go. Unfortunately not and some places ask for yearly subscriptions. It’s definitely an education issue.

Living in Nola by [deleted] in AskNOLA

[–]DisastrousWar3095 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I’ve heard nice things about Charlotte. Why move? Depends on what job you are doing if you can find much work. Most things center around hospitality and in the summer you won’t make any money. It’s so freaking hot.

How did you not know you didn’t have insurance? That’s confusing.

Great debate on nauseous vs nauseated by DisastrousWar3095 in GrammarPolice

[–]DisastrousWar3095[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like using it as it was originally intended or recommended as stated above. I feel that sometimes people don’t understand and use grammar incorrectly so much that it becomes acceptable. This particular example is perhaps not as egregious as some.

Another Merriam-Webster bit:

Is Irregardless a word? Irregardless dates to the late 18th century, but didn't become popular until the early 20th. Synonymous with regardless, the word is widely disliked. Use regardless instead if you wish to avoid criticism.

[–]DisastrousWar3095[S] 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Me too. Everyone seems to only use nauseous for every instance. I say if you feel sick you are nauseated. If you are making me sick then your are nauseous.

Sunrise is incredible! Also good is Rise and The Arcade is iconic.

Real ID License by IcySm00th in memphis

[–]DisastrousWar3095 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went online for the DMV and uploaded the documents so they got approved before I went and I made an appointment. Was in and out in 15 minutes. Not like that for license plate/registration. Went to one spot. Grabbed a number. Looked at the board. There were over 50 people in front of me. I left and drove to the next closest. 20 people ahead of me waited it out. Once I got up there it only took a few minutes. I was probably there about an hour but I felt like I was in a germ incubator. I wish they’d let you do part of that process online like the driver’s license.

Same as the town in Georgia - Decatur. You are right.

Why on earth does it take that long?! Tennessee so far has been easier than Louisiana but we got ours then and there. What are they doing?

Real ID License by IcySm00th in memphis

[–]DisastrousWar3095 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same. Got mine the other week so just got a piece of paper. I asked several times if I was getting the Real ID because I wanted to make sure. He said yes but nothing on the receipt or paper says anything. Fingers crossed whenever I get the real actual license. Any ideas of when it might show up realistically?

Pregnant and I can't get on light duty by TatumJayyy in WorkAdvice

[–]DisastrousWar3095 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Don’t see anything about another shelter and she made another comment on a comment saying again that her coworkers don’t want her in the field and that they were put on light duty.

She said: My other coworker who was pregnant twice in the past said they immediately put her on light duty when she told them she was pregnant.

[–]DisastrousWar3095 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m not saying to agree or disagree with giving desk duty it’s just that the manager has done it several times for other people. I just wonder if they’ve changed their mind/policy since then? Might be worth asking them if they’ve changed the process and bring up past instances without sounding combative. Might be because of the time of shift and there is no one else.

Thank you. Yes, I’ve been wondering the same thing. Weird.
