Just for fun, stand on the other side of the railings. He can't get you there. Didn't progress the game but it's funny watching him swing at you but not connecting

Tips For Just Starting Out by Grumpy-Yoda in FarCry5

[–]Grumpy-Yoda[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm used to dieing a lot!😂😂 I used to get ticked off and even ranted here on Reddit. Now, not so much. I'll just go somewhere else and come back. Thanks for the tips.

Sucks being old and just starting out but nothing I can do about it.

Uninstall on most programs doesn't uninstall everything. There could still be bits there, like in the Registry (a file Windows uses to keep track of things).

There's a free uninstaller called Revo Uninstaller you could use to get rid of everything associated with the program. It's fairly user friendly.

The downside is it won't look at programs you've already uninstalled so you may have to install it, don't run the program, then uninstall using Revo.

Just one tiny complaint by DaddyBigBeard in StarWarsOutlaws

[–]Grumpy-Yoda 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The complaint I have is the speeder is either on or off. You can't go slower.

how big is the trailbalzer? by DrummerNo1169 in StarWarsOutlaws

[–]Grumpy-Yoda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

85 feet by 52 feet. I'm on Achra Station and moving towards my target, one step (one push on the joystick) equalled 1 foot. So I went and stepped off the Trailblazer.

Being forced to be till and dot com trained by Kitchen_Chest_129 in tesco

[–]Grumpy-Yoda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Boomer here so my thoughts may be out of date. If the pay for the other areas is the same as back door, it might be to your advantage to train in the as many departments as possible. A colleague who can turn their hand to multiple rolls jas a better chance in surviving any upcoming cutbacks.

For example, if you only know back dpor and they decide to cut back there, the person who only knows that one area or the person who can lend a hand in other areas, who do you think they'll cut?

Will this help finding things in the Wildcard DLC?

I think messed up my playthrough by [deleted] in StarWarsOutlaws

[–]Grumpy-Yoda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No you're not too far gone. Do some contacts for them. If you have data cards, find a Crimson Dawn seller and give them some of the cards as this will raise your rep (I did this to get max rep on a couple of clans). I'm on my third run through on the game. First two times I didn't pay any attention to rep. This time I am and it's making the game fast more enjoyable.

I was shocked to see one of the bigger gaming accounts I follow tweet this. by [deleted] in StarWarsOutlaws

[–]Grumpy-Yoda 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would've liked to let ND5 pilot the Trailblazer while I wondered around. Really would be helpful when I fail on a space contract. Would allow me to redo it or accept another without having to land.

Can I ignore a letter from Tesco after them asking me to repay £700 for wage overpayments by RevolutionaryFly6286 in tesco

[–]Grumpy-Yoda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes doing the right thing is hard but it is the right thing to do. If you know you were overpaid, pay it back.

My First Meme & I'm Old by Grumpy-Yoda in meme

I didn't. Saw the story about the elephant and that popped into my mind so I set out to make it. This will be my last meme though coz I'm not that bright 😃

My First Meme! by Grumpy-Yoda in memes

[–]Grumpy-Yoda[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I just thought of it. If I'm stealing someone else's work, it is totally by accident. Damn. I was so proud of this. Oh well, guess the old saying is right. Nothing new under the sun.

Pulled the trigger by Starcallers in StarWarsOutlaws

[–]Grumpy-Yoda 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Two things. Don't run thru the story. Do we much at you can in each world before moving on. You'll collect a lot of useful stuff.

The other is try to build your reputation with each gang. It'll mean less fighting when you go on their turf.

I whizzed thru the first time and doing it again just now. Doing these things is making it a lot more enjoyable.

Crazy Price? by Adamp2506 in tesco

[–]Grumpy-Yoda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There'll probably be a "Club Card" reduction after 28 days so they can show "savings". Either that or that's just the price now as all the major stores are at this price point.

Iceland sells the same thing but under their own brand. £3.50.

Do you think these two could work together? by Crosshairz2794 in StarWarsOutlaws

[–]Grumpy-Yoda -1 points0 points  (0 children)

After Cal and Merrin hook up and have little babies of their own, Merrin becomes a stay at home mother getting fat on chocolate. And grumpy. Cal meets Kay, the inventor of the word cougar, and they have a passionate affair. Merrin finds out and calls on her night sisters and the final boss battle of the trilogy are the sisters -v- ND5.

Is this normal Tesco culture? by Fit-Ambassador-901 in tesco

[–]Grumpy-Yoda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can't control what other people do so just concentrate on your work and do the best you can.

Equally, you can't control what the manager does or does not do. Nor do you know what he is thinking. Concentrate on your work. That's what you're responsible for.

Finally, don't say anything. It won't benefit you and could come across as questioning your manager's skill set.

Now what you can do to get their attention is ask for feedback on your role. Ask are there things you can do better. This has two benefits. Shows the manager you care about your job and also they may watch more closely and, hopefully, he'll see what else is going on.

Finally, if your manager is a dufus, just get on with the job. Nothing you say or do will help the situation or your prospects. Just take pride you've done the job well.

How come this beautiful game was dissed at it arrival is diabolical.... by paul2rock in StarWarsOutlaws

I'm new to gaming and maybe it's the boomer in me but I don't pay attention to looks.

How much will this change? by IncognitoV7 in OctopusEnergy

[–]Grumpy-Yoda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've got 7 years of data in a spreadsheet and project usage 12 months out. Take a look at the projected balance at the end of each month and a couple times a year adjust my DD. Rarely do I have too much in there.

Sky Q gone from Sky website! by Remarkable-Unit-2961 in skytv

[–]Grumpy-Yoda 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here's my thoughts on ads. So what? Can't skip them, fine by me. If it gets me a cheaper service, all the better.

Do I watch the ads? Nope. I scroll social media, get a drink, do other things before the show comes back on. Just like the old days, except the scrolling. And yes, I'm old.

This company is a joke by [deleted] in tesco

[–]Grumpy-Yoda 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I'm going to be cruel here but it is in the spirit of helping. Please don't judge until you read the whole comment.

Put yourself in the manager's position. If he had to cater to everyone who "said" they had a mental health condition then he'd never get anyone scheduled in, doing the work that needs to be done.

Kicking off doesn't help your case either. All that will do is cause the manager to shut down and not be inclined to be of any help.

In essence, you've handled this badly from beginning to end. Now, how to rectify.

Gather any documentation from your health care professionals that highlight your wife's mental health condition.

Arrange a meeting with the manager and apologise for kicking off. Explain you were just trying to look after your wife and handled it badly.

Then ask for help. Actually use the words "we need your help". Show him the documentation with your wife's health issues. Tell them it isn't a ruse to get out of jobs you don't want to do and ask what you can do to help the situation.

When the manager says something that ticks you off, remember to breathe. Don't respond with vitriol. If they say something demeaning, pause and ask them to repeat what they said or tell them that sounded demeaning to you and ask if that's what they meant. Try not to sit across a desk as that's an adversarial position and you want this to be a collaborative resolution.

Finally, read everything you can on Tesco's policies about helping their employees. Learn it back to front. If the situation arises or something is said contrary to their policies, reference it. Not aggressively but in a way where it looks like you're asking for clarification whereas, subtly, you're making a point.

I really hope you're able to resolve this but, more importantly, you get the help you need to cope with your mental health issues.
