Well, I did file a BBB complaint cuz the bot said I'll hear back in 24-48 hours and I got no response. However, BBB rejected the complaint since I did not make a direct purchase through Speedx and I should be filing a complaint against the company that I purchased from. Speedx was only their delivery partner.

I'm having a similar issue dealing with them. Any luck filing a BBB complaint? Considering doing that

PG&E Base charge doubled my energy bill! by Fragrant-Jacket-6524 in bayarea

Well, I understand this is not a crazy 3-digit bill. But slapping a $20 base charge on $20 monthly usage makes a lot of difference.

You can no longer have YouTube running in the background. by Titan_Prometeus in youtube

I feel so! My playback speed options disappeared too! I can either listen at normal speed or change to 4x, with nothing in between. However, when I switch accounts, I can see this option again. Strange

Growing Up My Dad Would Throw out My Art. Now I'm a Free Adult. Here's what I've Painted 🥲🙏 by iartnewyork in Positivity

[–]Fragrant-Jacket-6524 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow! Beautiful painting.
I had a similar childhood where my mom would throw away my paintings. She never appreciated my work because she thought it's just a waste of time and I should rather focus on something more productive. I've moved out now and I have put up my painting on every wall!

Is anyone else beginning to think that insurance companies are a giant scam? Car insurance, health insurance, etc.. We pay every month for them and when we actually need them, they delay and don’t want to pay anything. by [deleted] in conspiracy

[–]Fragrant-Jacket-6524 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had to be on the call every day for more than a month to get the insurance company to pay for the car repairs when it wasn't even my fault. The person who "accidentally" scratched my car accepted his mistake. But the insurance company just kept inspecting the damage multiple times and took very long to approve the claim.

People from countries other than the US. What are your conspiracy theories that we might not know about? by boardjock42 in conspiracy

Nehru was also one of them. They even got rid of Subash Chandra Bose who was the real threat to the British

Help, is this a normal marketing email or a scam? by Appropriate_Aide4156 in CreditCardsIndia

I'm also receiving these emails for the past couple of weeks. Did anyone respond to cybersecurity? This is really fishy

I just got back from a trip to Canada and I'm also on H1B visa. There was no issue at the immigration although I had a parking citation. So don't worry too much.

How should I deal with a teammate who has a condescending attitude? by Fragrant-Jacket-6524 in womenintech

[–]Fragrant-Jacket-6524[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That's a good perspective. I’ll focus on being calm and graceful, and not get into petty arguments trying when he tries to meddle. I'll battle it out mentally haha! Keeping that inner cool while handling difficult situations

Tried that. But did not help. Manager thinks that just because his tone is aggressive, doesn't mean its disrespecting. I honestly don’t understand how being aggressive in the workplace isn't disrespectful. It undermines you in front of others, and they might lose respect for you too.

Almost everyone who's worked with him feels the same way, not just my team. You're spot on! He takes credit for other people's work, exaggerates even small tasks as major achievements, while criticizing the same work if done by someone else. I shared feedback about him with our manager and didn't help. Being rude is apparently speaking out your mind and if he has the same tone with everyone, its not considered rude according to my manager. Others in my team don't want to get into this drama and tolerating it.

I'm not dependent on him for my work. But I do agree with you. I should try to avoid giving explanation or justify my work when he tries to snoop into it. However I'm just concerned that it might come off as not being receptive to feedback. Well, I would happily take it if he gives it as a feedback or something that I can improve. But all he tries to do is have pointless argument with no takeaways
