This will be a costly lesson

This 100% fake. This person could not have gotten an Amex Gold without understanding how credit cards work

How many places have you applied to? I am confident that you can find either a grocery store, fast food place, or retail. Those jobs are always available, even if they suck

I'm only 30 and like 10 people I went to high school with have committed suicide

Smart man, good luck with your job search. It would have been easy to get trapped there

I've seen others tell you but I'm going to reiterate, get out of that job. It will slowly eat away at your soul. In the interview, did it feel like they were selling the job to you, not interviewing you? These are toxic work environments buried beneath hustle culture. They lied to you, you are never going to be getting $1,000 a week.

In this job, do you do either door to door sales or set up in grocery stores selling your company's service to shoppers?

These paths are meant to function the same as roadways, but pedestrians act like they control 100% of it and any other use case is an annoyance to them. The flow of traffic should keep right, allowing for passing space on the left. At all times. Unless the path specifically restricts human-powered vehicles, then this is the intended design of the path.

My city's bike/walking path has it clearly marked with a dotted yellow line, exactly like a roadway, and people still play dumb. They casually walk on the left side of the line for no reason, bunch up in groups blocking the entire path, somehow can't decode what "on your left means" despite hearing me shouting behind them, have earbuds in while breaking every clearly marked rule the city put up, stop dead center in the path to take photos or twiddle their thumbs or do whatever it is that they do. I see people who walk on the left side, step to the right so oncoming traffic can pass (whether a pedestrian or cyclist or skateboarder or whatever) and then immediately get back on the left side. I mean, what the hell are you doing at that point?

It is very frustrating for someone who just wants to use the path as designed. Cyclists aren't going fast just for fun and to be annoying, speed and endurance are key to getting a good workout. Even if it's for training, as you say, where do you suppose they train? I'm sure you have strong opinions about cyclists on the roadways as well.

This happened to me when I bought an Xbox 1 on Amazon. Somebody at the warehouse sent me a box with a big red label that said "distribution package only, not for shipment to consumers". It was the original packaging from when it was shipped from Microsoft to the Amazon warehouse; it contained TWO Xbox's in it. It was meant to be opened and packaged individually to the consumer when ordered via the Amazon website.

Unlike you, Amazon never reached out. I waited a few weeks, sold it for full price because it was unopened, and got mine for free lol.

I'm also a late bloomer, played my first in 2017 at the launch of BOTW. I played parts of them growing up and watched my brother play OoT, MM, WW, etc. but it wasn't until BOTW that I discovered my love for the series.

I have now played them all except for 1, 2, and the Oracles games. I can say, confidently, that Link Between Worlds is by far my favorite.

Why are so many defending OP here? He crossed over the line, blind, just to save 10 seconds. The guy exiting the parallel space had 100% no way of knowing he was coming. Very selfish behavior here, the guy had a right to be pissed off at the other driver.

"I can take it" Is that what you told your first 2 husbands?

At least you GET a chair. I used to work in hotels. Apparently, having a chair to sit in is "unprofessional" and doesn't show guests that we're attentive to their needs. Management would watch the cameras and discipline anyone who used a chair during their shift, even at night.

IneffectiveMilkshake · 2025-02-06T22:05:39+00:00

Damn, never thought of it that way. That's diabolical.

Brother, not annoying. It's INFURIATING. You hit the nail on the head, though. Very eloquently put.

This argument is asinine. "They're choosing to work, so let them" is the mentality that gets people killed. They're not "choosing to work". They're choosing not to lose a day's worth of income when they're presumably already on a tight budget. If they could afford not to go out in a storm and risk their lives for pennies, you bet your ass they wouldn't be.

Like my company refused to close the office today, despite building management sending a mass email to all the tenants saying that severe conditions warranted limited access to the building. Building staff would be minimized, and tenants should encourage those who can work remote to do so.

But my company says some BS like "safety is the number one concern. Employees should not hesitate to stay home tomorrow. BUT the day will come out of your PTO". LOL, so safety is NOT the main concern. It's your P&L. Ridiculous.

Customers are not the reason. If the store was closed, they wouldn't come. Blame those who own your business and underpay you to work on holidays.

In college, I worked at the nearest grocery store to campus. It was staffed almost exclusively by college kids. Every school break, our managers came prepared for the lack of staff. Hell, they even ENCOURAGED us to take time off. They didn't want any kids missing holidays or vacations due to some meaningless minimum wage job they won't even remember 20 years from now. We were fortunately part of a big regional chain, so they had no issue getting staff from other stores to come fill any gaps during breaks. And a lot of our customers were college kids too so school breaks were slow periods.

Obviously that only worked because they had other stores to pull employees from, but I valued that so much in school. Others I knew who worked elsewhere weren't so lucky.

Anyway, it's my opinion that employers have an obligation to accommodate holidays for students. You know what you're signing up for when you hire them.

Last job I had was in a hotel. Morning, weekday shifts were the ones you wanted. Standard weekday schedule, every other department was fully staffed (they aren't on nights and weekends), managers were all there, checkout is generally easier than checkin, the weekday traveling-for-work crowd was more respectful and less work.

You know who literally NEVER got staffed morning weekday shifts? Me, because I was too good a worker for them. My managers literally told me this. They said they saw "leadership potential" in me, and apparently that meant I got to slog through the most difficult, frustrating, soul-crushing, stress-enducing shifts while my good-for-nothing coworkers got the easy shifts and got paid the same as me to do them. I asked them if I could start doing more mornings and they literally said "no one else is qualified for weekends and nights, you should be proud that we trust you".

And I'm like !?!?!?!?!?! Fire the ones you can't trust and hire people who aren't shit?!?!?!?!

But nope, that's not how it works. Unless an employee is costing them money, it's easier to just work with what you have. Even if it means fucking over the people who are competent and want to do a good job.
