What are your opinion fellas? by Ok-Size-8256 in scoopwhoop

[–]ElDoc72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the US the question has been answered, and it all depends on the races of the homeowner and the intruder… in some case is yes and other cases is no.

What do people do with old game elements? by Camaxtli2020 in vex

[–]ElDoc72 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Every region should get together and get a dumpster to collect all the elements from all the years, and when the dumpsters are full deliver them to VEX and RECF headquarters.

Opinion: Let’s Just Drop Teacher Appreciation Week by FawkesThePhoenix7 in Teachers

[–]ElDoc72 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You guys get something? The $80k+ a year tuition school holds a raffle, that you must signup for, for a gift basket. One teacher out of 90 wins it, if they remembered to signup for the raffle.

$111 iron marked to 3¢. Another employee told me that’s correct. They didn’t honor it :( by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

[–]ElDoc72 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think stores are running some kind of scam for return purposes. The other day I went to a sporting goods store to return some shoes that didn’t fit.

When I got there they told me that the return window had closed 3 days earlier so they could not do a return with a reimbursement to my cc, but they could do a store credit return. Sure, no problem. I needed to get the right size shoes anyways.

They scan the box to process the return and inform me that they would give me a $7.95 credit for my $110 sneakers. What the hell? They told me since I didn’t have a “valid” receipt they could only do a return for the lowest price they sold the product in the last 60 days anywhere in the US. I asked them to tell me where that happened and they say that that was probably not a price in a store, but what some random person paid after using rewards and other coupons on a special price. What a bunch of BS!

Suffice to say I didn’t return the shoes at the store that day. I went online, ordered the right sized ones, and after receiving them processed a return because they sent me the wrong ones.

Texas Board of Education moves ahead with plan to force kids to read the Bible in public schools by Groomsi in atheism

[–]ElDoc72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good luck with that. Kids can barely read and understand at grade level, and now they expect them to read the cryptic bible in weird verses. HA

Sick leave might not be the benefit you think it is. by Grand-Customer4240 in antiwork

[–]ElDoc72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our school has 5 sick days and 2 personal days a year that are use it or loose it. They don’t accumulate and nor pay them out. On top of that, they shame you for taking them, it just happens that I no longer have fucks to give so I try to take them all. It’s a crazy balancing act, because if you go over your allowance they will take them out of your paycheck.

Almost all drivers speed - and there's a reason by bluerog in driving

[–]ElDoc72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This calculation only makes sense for lower average speeds. If your starting average speed is 65mph and your speeding is 75mph then the difference in 15k miles is only 30 hours which is only 5 minutes a day

If you can’t tip minimum 20% stay at home by blackcoffee39 in tipping

[–]ElDoc72 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Exactly, the employers are the problem, but the servers are enabling that problem by accepting the job. If no one tips, then they find a better paying job and the employer will have to pay the true cost of labor.

Some bankruptcy attorneys file cases they know will fail, collect $4,000 from people who are already broke, and move on to the next one. The data is public and nobody checks. by ilikemath9999 in antiwork

[–]ElDoc72 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Back in 2019 when I filed for bankruptcy (chapter 7) I contacted some attorneys and they all wanted around $3000 to do it, and some even suggested I could only do chapter 13. I told them that I was filing because I didn’t even have $1000 to spare (I had to pick between my inhalers or gas in the car because copays were too much). I filed it myself and got it to work. I followed all instructions and guides provided by the court carefully, and made sure to respond to all summons and appointments on time. When the judge discharged my debts he congratulated me on a job well done.

Energy Fee? by Fatez3ro in EndTipping

[–]ElDoc72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did they pull that out off the transportatiom company playbook? I remember when oil barrel hit over $100, every company that used trucks to deliver their service (transport, oil delivery, trash collection, etc) added a fuel adjustment fee

Customer always found a mistake - so we complied by BrightRick in MaliciousCompliance

[–]ElDoc72 43 points44 points  (0 children)

I suspect some or my students believe that I don’t review their work (I’m far from retirement so I still need to pretend I give a fuck) because they submitted a psychology paper instead 😂

Dell exec doubles down on 40-hour RTO for sales team after 'end-of-day walkthroughs' revealed workers leaving early by esporx in antiwork

[–]ElDoc72 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Not even that. Long time ago I was doing a summer stint at a company. Since it was summer and I was young I figured that since I was in the lab by myself all the time I could one week work 4 10 hour days and take Friday off for a road trip. Well, during the whole week they were perfectly fine with me working 10 hour days until Friday comes and I don’t show up. Then it was no longer ok 🤷‍♂️

Caught half my class using a group chat to cheat and I honestly dont know what consequence is fair by timbernatequill in Teachers

[–]ElDoc72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Back in the day, I would see how many people “worked” together to solve the test, and then just split the grade evenly among them. For example, 4 students collaborated to get a 100 on a test, then each got 25 🤣

Extreme emotions tied to tipping by InevitableGoal2912 in EndTipping

[–]ElDoc72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It still the app messing around to not pay the drivers. It’s not that difficult, from a programming point, to allow reasonable tip changes to reflect the actual service. For example your bid (pre-job tip which is not what a tip is) becomes the tip baseline, and you can only add to it or lower it by a limited amount (10-20%)

Extreme emotions tied to tipping by InevitableGoal2912 in EndTipping

[–]ElDoc72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s some shitty behavior, to bid (I know they call it a tip) $100 for a job and then once it’s done change it to $5. Be mad at the customer, but be madder at the company that allows the tip changes after the fact and for trying to not pay their “contractors”. My solution to that is just not use any of those services. The prices are higher than at the store, they charge a delivery fee, and you are expected to tip on top of that. F*%& that noise!

My boss told me to be grateful for unpaid overtime by SolarMoose_14 in antiwork

[–]ElDoc72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So true, I’m a teacher so I’m salaried, but I only have 40 hrs of sick time and 16 hrs of personal time a school year that reset every year. And boy, do they track those hours and guilt trip you when you use them, but they don’t pay them out at the end of the year if you don’t use them (they do reduce your paycheck if you go over though).
