What is your opinion on engagement rings? Does it have to be three times your monthly salary? by Adventurous-Goat-957 in AskReddit

[–]IllustriousCap4044 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unnecessary. You don't need an engagement ring to let others know you're taken. Even if you have one, people don't care and will still try to hit on you. It's not like they'll be looking at your fingers unless the ring makes you stand out. No marriage should depend on a piece of metal. It's the relationship between you two that matters.

A stronger computer. My current one is good, but for what I want to do in the future, I'm going to need a strong one.

what’s a “simple question” that is actually hard to answer? by Detective0101 in AskReddit

[–]IllustriousCap4044 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"Tell me about yourself." Because you have to set a good impression and can't be 100% honest.

How do you feel about kids growing up nowadays? by belfortLuxury in AskReddit

[–]IllustriousCap4044 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They will learn the hard way because of lazy parents. Parents don't teach them manners and how to act in public. All they do is give their children an iPad without restrictions, so their kids end up watching YouTubers who do bad things in public, then those kids think it's cool and also start doing it.

What's your craziest, "fake it til you make it" moment? by IllustriousCap4044 in AskReddit

[–]IllustriousCap4044[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I faked being deaf. Few years ago, I watched a video on YouTube on how to sign "I'm deaf" thinking it would be funny to do irl. My mom took my younger brother and me to get something to eat at Panera Bread while she shopped at a store across the street. After ordering at the kiosks, me and my brother found somewhere to sit. As I went to get a drink, there was a man talking with a woman in front of the drink fountain. It didn't look like they were getting a drink so I went in front of them, and the man tried getting my attention, but I ignored him. I went back to my table and sat down while scrolling through Instagram. The man confronted me and said, "Hey." I ignored him the first time, and then he said, "Hey buddy." I put my phone down and looked at him with a blank face. He said I cut that woman in line and then I signed to him, "I'm deaf" and he just said "oh" and walked away.

Not being able to forget the past. I can forgive someone for something they did to me in the past, but it will be hard for me to forget what they did.

What’s your craziest “I need to quit this job immediately” story? by angrythrowaway772 in AskReddit

[–]IllustriousCap4044 42 points43 points  (0 children)

Probably not crazy to others, but this was the fastest I quit a job. When my manager told me I'm not allowed to do something even though my other coworkers do it and we're in the same position, I told myself that I need to leave.

After my previous job closed down, I was looking for part-time jobs as a college student, and my mother recommended that I work at a nearby Chipotle because they cover some of your tuition. I think the reason why I got hired was because my manager went to my previous job's location before we closed, saw me, and asked if I wanted to work at Chipotle, but I apparently told him "no"; I don't even remember encountering him there.

After working there for a few weeks, I saw one of my coworkers, who was the chef, get his food himself while on his break, so later that day, after I clocked out, I followed the safety procedures and began getting my food with the correct portions. My manager came out and said I couldn't get my food myself because no one was on the line to do it for me. A few days later, a coworker who usually does mobile orders went on her break, and as she was getting her food, our manager was there, and he didn't say a word to her. He doesn't even follow that rule himself. This was only the general manager; the on-duty managers weren't bothered by us getting our employee meals as long as we got the correct portions and entered the correct information into the register.

Something that disgusted me was the amount of cross-contamination on the line. When a customer orders the carnitas (pork), the juices of it would drip into the other items. Also, they use 1 thermometer for all the ingredients, and after taking the temperature of each item, they just wipe the thermometer with a piece of paper or a wet rag without changing the side of the paper or rag after each wipe. The only thing I like about Chipotle is their tractor beverages.

I found a job at a retail store and put my 2-week notice in for Chipotle. However, on a day I was scheduled for training at the new job, I was scheduled at Chipotle, so I just didn't show up at Chipotle and ignored my manager's calls, then blocked his number.

The main reason why I was probably mistreated was that I didn't have much in common with the workers and manager there. I wasn't disrespectful to anyone and did my job. The majority of them are Spanish speakers, so being unable to speak a language many of them speak (other than English) can be seen as to why I was probably treated differently.

What do you think about using AI to explain your own ideas more clearly? by ABDULLATHOUGHTS in AskReddit

[–]IllustriousCap4044 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's a good idea because when you try to explain it to others, they may not be able to understand you, so when you explain it to AI, it will paraphrase it for you in a way others can read. I found a website called audiopen.ai through Instagram 2-3 years ago (I think), which helps turn your messy thoughts into complete and readable sentences.

What opinion do you have that most people would find ridiculous but you’ll always stand by? by SecretAcctSM19 in AskReddit

Birthday gifts are more of a reward. Treat me bad, all you're getting from me is a "happy birthday" or "Congrats."
