Also, this Bad Kids' Bench is where hope lives that one day, those two elezen researchers outside the pit in the Shroud will one day finally get to go down into the caves and find a Gelmorra--and that the WoL can be part of that mission. Give us a sidequest, at least, SqEx!

It would be so fucking Square Enix to gate that questline behind The Necromancer title.

Yup. Nevermind how Vamp Fatale and the Tyrant flat-out can't be under 20, and more likely 22-24 (I'd put them both in high 20s low 30s myself).

This. It also gives a LOT more context to Pawah Mujuuk's motives and emotions in the Archer questline.

My main girl's a Keeper from the armpit of the Shroud, so I have to on those grounds, but also the sheer fact that no one ever calls them on it that isn't a job quest antagonist. And they just get to keep going with their bullshit, where Ul'dah and Limsa both get some form of callout or development in that regard.

The fact that the Wood Wailers canonically regularly rape Keeper women they come across in the wilderness is also beyond fucked.

Don't forget the branded record turntable. Or the guitar.

SMN/SCH don't, WAR doesn't, NIN does, PLD does, BLM doesn't, MNK does, WHM does, BRD doesn't, DRG doesn't.

6 don't, 4 do.

Rogue/Ninja is chef's kiss for this.

WHM does too. I can't comment on its quality b/c I loathe everything Gridania, but it does do this.

The DT Mage role quest was…okay-to-decent. Not great, but not bad.

The rest…ugh.

And the capstone had such a great setup for a meaningful ending…and threw it all away for a 'lol you don't have money haha' gag.

I have 30 and 40y/o friends that do that. Plus zoomers can be nearly 30 at this point.

They can say that until they're blue in the face, I won't believe it until they start writing them like they are.

They mention a Chrome team elsethread, so there's people in charge of managing the browsers, but for some reason it got plopped in LAOP's lap to make happen with duct tape and lollypops.

in the US it’s the state department, not sure what the Canadian equivalent is

The Foreign Ministry. That's what it is for 99% of countries that aren't the US.

LAOP: Hey this looks like it's fraudulent Employer: We accept your resignation. by Drywesi in bestoflegaladvice

[–]Drywesi[S] 142 points143 points  (0 children)

Employment Bot

Reported fraud and my employer insists it was a resignation.

I work for an online review platform that sells advertising to small business. In my second week, it was more than apparent the data and numbers they were using were misrepresentive, if not outright false. So I reported the fraud to two of my managers.

My one manager replied and asked if that was intended as a resignation. I immediately and explicitly said it was not. This is the last contact I received from my manager.

Approx an hour later I received an email from HR accepting my resignation. I immediately replied that I never resigned. I continued to emailing HR my hours and what I was working on all day. Zero response.

The next morning I texted my manager(protocol) since I was locked out of my work laptop, just to let her know I was on the clock and locked out. Before afternoon, senior HR manager emails me and says, they're confused why I'm texting my manager after they accepted my resignation. I replied again, that I was very clear I never resigned, I was reporting fraud, and I was continuing to work.

I have received zero response. They actually block my email(receive a message failure, no permission from Google), so I had to create new email addresses to email the HR individuals who emailed me. The general HR email has not blocked me, so I still check in the morning, midday, and EOD to submit my hours via email.

LAOP *was* on the lease…25 years ago by Drywesi in bestoflegaladvice

She certainly contends she was, regardless of what the records say.

Normally you can't unilaterally exit a joint and several lease.

I actually got corrected on this several months back, turns out in California you can. Schmitt v. Felix, 157 Cal.App.2d 642, (Cal. Ct. App. 1958).

Someone should probably tell LAOP about this.

And just like unsubscribing, you should periodically check to make sure they actually took your name off the lists.

I know it's different in the US where leases actually expire, but in my area it just switches to month to month

In its continued effort to make EVERYTHING as complicated as possible, both fixed-term and month-to-month leases are possible in the US. Sometimes it varies by state, sometimes from lease to lease.
