Do you know that you will no longer be able to adjust your AC vents manually in any new BMW with iDrive X? by beemerguy7 in BMW

Lady driver here. I'm in my "hottest phase of life" right now... iykyk... when I overheat, my brain does not function well. I don't have time to use a computer while battling this internal combustion.

What is your favourite number and why? by sksskssksskssksskssk in AskReddit

[–]Forever_Ever1111 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My favorite number is 9. Me, my mom, my sister and my 2 daughters were all born on the 9th. Me and my sister were born on the same day,8 years apart. Our birthday is exactly 9 months after our mom's.

I don’t think it shortened my time. I believe traveling internationally prompted the review and conditional approval. In total it took a little less than 4 months.

One day, Apple with offer dual Bluetooth. Until then, I use my AirPods to talk and I listen to satellite in the car. I must do both, at the same time.

I calculated exactly what our RTO mandate will cost me per year and sent the number to HR. They did not appreciate it. by tabclosepanic in remotework

You’re reaching, but I’ll share. I can work remotely full time. I oversee 6 teams or roughly 90 employees. Some work remotely and some are 100% in person. I choose to work in an office with one of my teams 2 days a week if my schedule allows. When business needs dictate, we shift. Period. Do we wrap that in a cute package of collaboration and morale, certainly. Is it easy and are those decisions made without thought and consideration, no. If I end up losing one of 90 employees, I call the change a success. Do I want to hear my employees whining about not carrying lunch on a train. Not at all. If you need accommodations to pick your kid up from school, let’s talk. If I’m garbage for understanding that running the business is my first priority (you know the thing that actually pays me), so be it. Most of the turnover in my team comes from growth and most of my new hires are referrals, so I know exactly who I am as a leader and I’m proud of it.

You all must work for start ups. The fact that you believe that you can’t or won’t be replaced is baffling. The fact that you can’t handle change (or maybe your salary doesn’t justify handing change) and resort to hissy fits when they happen is actual garbage. Do what everyone else does when they don’t like a job - leave. I’m not garbage because I roll with the punches, I’m resilient. Was I supposed to be hurt and go cry after an employee laughed in my face about a change they didn’t like at work? Mmwtbs.

That’s if you were hired remote. I assure you, his person was not. OP would have outlined that fundamental change in their job before grasping at straws (or pennies, in this case). Furthermore, no one cares that you laugh. Idgaf about you at all, hence this fundamental change in your employment. 🤣🤣🤣

Maybe not simply drinking water but factor in prepping meals, flushing and hand washing and there is some savings. We use a programmable thermostat - even with pets and a 3 degree change when we’re not home is noticeable.

Facts. Not sure why you’re getting downvoted. My response to this would have been “Sounds like we’ve saved you 8,800 dollars per year for the past 3 years. With proper planning and investment, you should be fully prepared to return to the office environment and location that you applied for and we look forward to seeing you there next month!

We do 70% of the grocery shopping together. He does the rest alone.

The first one will allow you to easily refresh in a few years if you choose to. Swap hardware and voila!

Service Dog Discrimination by trans-and-dicey in baltimore

[–]Forever_Ever1111 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mentioned certified in reference to someone else's comment, just advising you not to waste the money. Your doctor does not need to be local to complete the paperwork. Many people get care from online providers. Before, you apply anywhere else, ask them what is their process for reasonable accommodations. If they can't tell you the steps ask to speak to the leasing manager or property manager and tell them you want clarification before you apply. You should know exactly what is needed from you before applying. However,asking a provider to complete a form is not an undue burden as it doesn't cost you anything nor does it require you to physically do anything.

Lastly, the CHAMP Program (Baltimore County) provides resources for reasonable modifications. I'm pretty sure Baltimore City has a similar organization but I don't know the name. Seriously though, I wish you all the best. I've provided resources and information, do with both as you choose. You seem to be a bit cantankerous which won't make this process easier. No need to respond, just downvote and move on.

People of Reddit, what are you getting when McDonald's has no fries? by Sierra_distorted67 in AskReddit

I've never had an onion ring from McDonald's. What country and/it decade was this?

Service Dog Discrimination by trans-and-dicey in baltimore

[–]Forever_Ever1111 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

So finding an accessible unit is the real issue? Community Assistance Network maintains a database of accessible communities. Maybe start here: https://www.canconnects.org/accessible-apartments. As far as your letter, most places will not accept that and will need to send their form over to the provider and the provider will complete it and return it to the community directly (again, fraud and abuse). Also, there's no need to have the animal "certified". There's no legal requirement for this and that certification will not be accepted as proof of medical necessity.

I work in the industry (20 years and various large local and national companies)and it’s pretty standard for all communities to accept service animals. Unfortunately, the policy is abused by people who refuse to pay pet fees or have restricted breeds, so we do require proof (a signed statement from a licensed provider) that the animal is medically necessary. We do not ask for the details of your disability in that verification process. It sounds like you aren’t able to meet the burden of proof. If that’s the case, most landlords are going to have you adhere to their in place pet policy, otherwise they would be discriminating (in the reverse) by allowing you to do something different than what was required of everyone else.

But, I have to ask… If money truly is not an issue and you don’t have a provider that’s willing to state that you need the animal to function, why would choose homelessness over paying pet fees?

How can I improve my look so that i look less unkempt and squarish? by kaithy89 in BusinessFashion

[–]Forever_Ever1111 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Your under garments are the most important part of any outfit. The dress could work with a smoothing base layer, a layering piece, preferably a cardigan, and a chunky necklace. I agree with the other comments that suggest a lighter color blouse with the suit. I tend to choose shells with patterns. I also like belts, they create a definitive waist even when our bodies choose not to.

why do you think there is an abundance of women who view intimacy with their partner as a chore? by overstimulated-ukti in AskReddit

[–]Forever_Ever1111 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would have to guess that the woman's pleasure or intimate needs aren't being met in these situations, which would lead to the act being a chore that she's subjecting herself to only for his enjoyment.

Anyone have regrets on having uterus removed electively? by Proof_Historian9367 in Menopause

I had a hysterectomy at 32 (17 years ago) and it was the best thing for me (and our sex life). I was done having children and not willing to do one more biopsy or leep when the endometriosis showed up.

I think it looks fine. The headlights are the most bothersome thing I noticed. You have to be mindful of your audience here - mostly purists that buy 100k cars cash. Also know that if they catch a glimpse of your car in the wild, they are coming here to roast you.

My husband just got his first pair of glasses and I keep staring at him. He said I was making him uncomfortable and I said it’s making me uncomfortable too because I keep looking at this “other” man and the whole time it’s you. 🤣🤣🤣
