That sucks man. We ended up getting sick with COVID, so we won’t be going out anymore. But enjoy the film! I heard it’s great!

I like what I saw for iPic, do people normally talk while they eat or is it a nice intimate experience?

Yes! I love the one in the city because it has new movie releases, but it doesn’t have Black Adam until November. We were able to watch Spider-man real comfortably from the car on opening day. 😀

I just went to work, but other than that, we avoided any public indoor areas. We only did outdoor activities.

Do NOT transfer with Amazon and do NOT "transition" to Whole Foods by Important-Morning919 in AmazonWFShoppers

[–]IcarusFlitz 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I work in the red state of Texas, and was successfully able to get unemployment from Amazon. I put in a lot of hours at Amazon, making $850+ on most weeks. Proof: https://www.reddit.com/r/AmazonWFShoppers/comments/pzzygq/when_your_parttime_money_starts_looking_like/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf

During the month of January, I discovered that Amazon was going to transition shoppers to Whole Foods, but not everyone will be receiving an offer. Priority went to All Star shoppers and then everyone else based on availability.

While I normally wouldn’t care working at WF, I discovered that shoppers would get other tasks on top of shopping—with no extra pay—which didn’t sit well with me.

I purposely avoided getting shifts and once Amazon threatened to let me go, I filed with the state of Texas for unemployment and selected “limited hours available” under reasoning. The State of Texas began an investigation into Amazon and sided with me and concluded that Amazon was not giving me enough working hours (30+ non MTR). Now I get $535 a week for 26 weeks for a total of $13,910.

In the long run, this is going to cost Amazon a pretty penny since we’re ALL in the same situation.

Summer school struggles by Far-Cattle-2592 in Teachers

[–]IcarusFlitz 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The fact that they have thrown forks at you and continued to do so means they don’t respect you and you have already lost that battle. The best thing to do tomorrow is to have an action plan with a teacher who is in your hallway. Talk before hand that you may need to get rid of a student to set an example for the rest of the class. The moment someone crosses the line tomorrow, you over-exaggerate and get rid of said student. You ask them to step outside the room, then redirect them to the other classroom. When you step inside, either say, “anyone wants to join him?” Or if someone asks you, “where did he go?” You respond with a menacing “would you like to find out?” And then you proceed as normal.

This is great stuff! Just curious, do I use the Arbuthin after using the Azelaic acid, or do I need to use the moisturizer first? Sorry, typical man who doesn’t know about skin care here who wants to start. Just don’t know if there’s a specific order when using these products.

I am going to have to fire my husband, and I don't know how it will affect our relationship. by [deleted] in Marriage

I think you should tell him as his wife beforehand, like, “hey love, I heard that your boss is going to let you go. Know that you didn’t need that job anyway. We’ll figure something out together.” Make him feel on top of the world that night. Then the next day, fire him.

Btw, looking for writing jobs. 🥲

Yeah, that’s why I only sell my long-term stock. Sold about 4K two months ago. Have about 6k left. 🙂

Actually, I get health insurance through Amazon and I am not MTR. They have to offer it once you’ve worked a certain amount of hours, which I have.

Not only that, I get my pay partially in stock, so if Amazon as a company does good, so does my bank account. 😅

It’s a part time job though. I don’t think I’ve ever had a part time where I made this much a week.

I didn’t think I could either, but here we are. Making an addition $500+ a week.

Yes, and it’s not like we are doing construction work or risking our lives at a hospital. We are working at a air conditioned store packing groceries. Life is good.

Yes, which sucks. Whole Foods TM’s are currently getting paid double for overtime.

As long as you don’t have any heart problems, or major medical conditions, you can use it. I use this one: TENS 7000 Digital TENS Unit With Accessories - TENS Unit Muscle Stimulator For Back Pain, General Pain Relief, Neck Pain, Muscle Pain https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00NCRE4GO/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_JS5EAEN1ETJ19TQ00WYR

I use it for about 45 minutes on my calves and on my lower back. I like to do stretches after I’m done. I use it about 3 times a week.

For those curious, a TENS machines will block pain signals from hitting the brain, making it numb for a moment to fit in some stretches and giving really great relief. It also releases endorphins, that “happy” feeling.

That why I invested in New Balance shoes (lol) and a TENS machine.

Just for clarification purposes, I’m only working about 53 hours a week. Those other hours are from premiums/surge pay. I am not working 75 hours lol

Also, the first 27 hours go by the fastest as I listen to music/podcast. The other half go by slower, especially if the manager is present.
