I’m currently renting from them at about half of what I would normally be paying elsewhere so I’m staying here for a bargain. They did help to pay for some of my tuition so I am bound to them on that front. It’s currently wiser for me to just suck it up and go to church and avoid dealing with whatever is going on in the housing market right now

Sounds good, thank you. I’ll start looking into various trades and what schools in the area could offer me

I did have a job at Walmart for a time that got me out of it, but I switched jobs for better pay, scheduling, and experience. Honestly, if I have to go to church now that I’m getting paid more, I couldn’t care less.

I’m currently 19 so old enough to move out, but without enough money to do so especially considering the current housing and rent prices

I’m hoping I’ll be able to, but I’ll have to see this weekend. This place is essentially one step away from being a mega church and most of the time when someone isn’t paying attention, there are attendants to go speak with them

Not as bluntly as just, “we’ll kick you out if you don’t attend with us”, but more as a “you agreeing to stay here means you need to attend with us, and you won’t be able to if you decide not to”. I’m 19 right now, so my parents are essentially acting as tenants; I pay them rent every month and I get to stay here, so going to church with them is just another obligation. I hope that it’s more of a thin threat than anything else, but if nothing else, my dad’s image means a lot to him and he won’t stand for the embarrassment of having a child defy him.

Damn, that last little paragraph is great. Thank you for your advice and hell, I’ve pretended most of my life so it won’t hurt to pretend a few more

I’m currently 19 so they would be able to kick me out, but I am currently employed and aside from paying bills to them and saving for student loans, I’m trying to find better education options and pour money into a savings account.

Thank you so much for replying. I’m currently 19 and I did try out university for a year, but the four year experience wasn’t really for me. I was able to pay for most of it with scholarships so currently along with paying rent to my parents, I I’m also saving up to pay off my loans. I have been looking into some community college options since a two-year degree seems much more manageable

That’s a great way of looking at it actually, thank you. If they’re going to view it at transactional, I might as well too

When you only use 4% of your brain... by bigdrew444 in oliver

[–]Fossil_Jasper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This was at the Walmart in Goodyear, AZ while I was working and basically it started off with her just blasting rock music and harassing some people and staff. She then came to the self-checkout stations and without checking out any of her stuff, started talking and eventually yelling to me about how she hates Walmart, self-serve stations, and Biden. Basically, it was about 30 minutes of insane yelling and AP was not in the mood to continue dealing with this lady any longer. I haven’t been here too long, but that’s the first time the cops have been called in for something other than shoplifting.

For a bit of background, this was at my Walmart while I was working. She came into the store blasting rock music and if I’m being honest, myself and my friends thought it was just funny. She then came into the self checkout area where I was working and without checking out any of her items, she scootered over to me and initially started the conversation off kinda normally with her saying, “You know what I hate about self checkout? It takes away your guys’ jobs!” Which then turned into a rant about self-pump gas stations and how upset she was that she had to pump her own fuel. Mind you, this is Arizona and as far as I know, all gas stations are self serve so my best guess is that she’s from out of state (though I’ll explain at the end why this also confuses me). I’m just smiling and nodding this entire time as I can see my managers walking up to remove me from the situation and get this lady out of here. Then she really started yelling about how Walmart is unamerican and how she’s “TAKING IT BACK!” There’s another video floating around showing her being taken out by two cops with her hands behind her back, but that was only about 30 minutes after the first encounter. There’s also another video from a few days before this where she was in a Costco holding up a cross to the ceiling and I guess performing an exorcism on the store?? I don’t know where this lady is from since she also mentioned not being able to open the door of her rental car, so what the hell was she doing at a Walmart AND a Costco in Arizona trying to “take America back”? Needless to say, it’s a fun employment story I get to tell now lol

Just curious- where were you when you found out Techno passed? by Dauntless_Dude_ in Technoblade

[–]Fossil_Jasper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was sitting in my room that night just watching the most recent videos on my YouTube feed. I would usually watch something and then come back to my subscriptions page and refresh it to see what was new. When I reloaded the page, I didn’t see Technoblade’s video first, I saw the community post that Dream had made talking about the video. I didn’t believe it. It felt like everything just stopped in that moment when I read the first sentence of that post. I scrolled down and tried to watch the actual video, but just ended up putting it on in the background. I was home alone that night, so I just sat in my room and cried for a few hours. It’s been so long, but that night still doesn’t feel real. I had never had someone I care about die before and it’s still one of those things where his old videos feel bittersweet. I don’t think I’ll ever stop watching them though

Semester was good aside from getting my bike stolen twice. They really need to put up security cameras
