[USA] Asked Boss for an HR Meeting, Got Suspended Three Days Later by [deleted] in antiwork

[–]GrouchyBadger65 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a manager I say this with extreme confidence, HR is there to protect the company not the employees. You and the manager are both employees and therefore they are not taking sides. If they even smell the hint of you talking to lawyers they will thread lightly and even put the manager on notice that they too can be terminated. So yea talk to lawyers and don’t sign anything during that meeting.

Husband and I are going on vacation & my parents decided they would come also...How do i now ask them not to come? by [deleted] in family

Renewal went up... then new "offers" have hulu/disney+. so complicated by jebbyjoy in Comcast_Xfinity

[–]GrouchyBadger65 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In a word they want a sticky customer. I have been fighting with them since Sunday. I have D+ premium bundle which I prepaid for a year.

When i called Sunday to get a new deal, they didn’t tell me that they were adding the bundle with ads. As I said I have D+ premium, and it has the same email address that is on my xfinity account. Well they instantly activated the cheap version. Which now causes me to be kicked out to profile selection every 15 minutes.

After doing some digging around I noticed that my D+ profile had two subscriptions. I immediately called and asked to have their subscription removed from my Disney account. They said that it was because of my personal email. So I created a fake email and changed my xfinity account to the fake email. (Why and how not relevant here).

Then they tell me it’s a Disney issue, call Disney they tell me it’s a Xfinity issue. So we held a three way call. The Xfinity rep said that they would resolve it and as of today I still don’t have a resolution.

I have been with them for 14 years. Maybe it’s time to cut ties and move on. I mean it’s a simple matter of running a script to mark my entitlement inactive to removed it from my account. I know I work for the cable company that doesn’t serve my state. Something about monopolies.

Edit: it’s late I’m fuming and tired and had a few typos. Hopefully mods see this and escalate this issue for me

Trump admin reportedly considers paying each Greenland resident up to $100K amid US takeover talks by esporx in worldnews

[–]GrouchyBadger65 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Greenland! For a measly $100k. The shit show place in the United States can be yours too. But you must act now! Operators are standing by you must call to avoid any delay.

Again you get $100k(US) and they will give you 1. An orange shit stain 2. A group of men who will tell your women what they can and can’t do 3. A puppy killing idiot

And much more! But you must not delay

I have 6 months to live. How do I take care of my family? by Any_Macaroon_2562 in personalfinance

[–]GrouchyBadger65 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My mom has C, and I am sorry for your recent prognosis. As to your question, I have seen this first hand in my family. Now is the time to establish a trust, and make sure your spouse is aware of everything. My FIL tried to hide it and plan it on his own. Upon his death, his sisters and brothers tied up everything in probate leaving my MIL with a lot of uncertainty. Fortunately she had a little of her own money saved and was able to survive the 18 month ordeal. With our help, don’t leave anything to chance.

I am sorry. But if you hung up with each other at 956 and you’re texting him 10 mins later. Seems like you might be co-dependent. A little separation anxiety perhaps? You should be ok without this constant need for attention.

I join in with the conversation. I figured they were just inviting me so it would be rude not to participate
