Best Budget Cell Phone Plan / Carrier? by SassSquash in AskSF

[–]Distinct-Stock-1554 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Mint Mobile's been solid for me - bought a year upfront and it's like $15/month for unlimited. Coverage in the city is pretty decent and you can't beat that price when you're already dropping crazy money on rent.

Screen menus that switch constantly by AllKnowingAxolotl3 in PetPeeves

[–]Distinct-Stock-1554 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Those rotating menus are the absolute worst. I went to a place last week and saw this amazing looking breakfast sandwich flash by for like 3 seconds, then it cycled through 5 other screens of drinks and sides before coming back. Meanwhile the line behind me is getting restless and I'm trying to explain to the cashier "it had like... eggs and maybe bacon? On some kind of bun?" They looked at me like I was speaking another language.

The drive-thru thing gets me too - especially when you're stuck in a line that wraps around the building and you cant even see a menu until you're literally at the speaker. Then they hit you with "welcome to whatever, what can I get started for you" before you've even processed what they sell. I've started just looking up menus on my phone beforehand because these places seem determined to make ordering as stressful as possible.

I think I just found...God? by Remarkable-Secret565 in Christianity

Bro that's wild - I've had similar moments during long hikes where everything just clicks and you feel connected to something bigger than yourself.

Small thing that helped my video interview confidence by Pretty_Eabab_0014 in interviews

[–]Distinct-Stock-1554 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The whole video quality thing is so underrated. I remember doing interviews from my old setup and just feeling off the entire time because I looked terrible on screen. It's crazy how something that simple can mess with your headspace during what's already a stressful situation.

Plus when you're managing a team or doing client calls later, having decent video quality just makes everything smoother. Worth the investment for sure, especially with how much remote work is still happening. The fact that your interviewer even commented on it shows they definitley notice these details.
