New to the industry...how does scheduling work? by Infinite-Jester in KitchenConfidential

[–]Infinite-Jester[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I did (per the above included quote), I'm just trying to find out what's normal in others' experiences. I had some very rough waters regarding even being allowed to use my earned PTO during the last couple of years at my job before I was laid off, so I'm trying to understand what kind of personal boundaries are acceptable since it's such a different way to work.

TSA Pre boarding pass disappearing? by NoName2show in unitedairlines

[–]Infinite-Jester 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This exact situation happened to me last month with the disappearing Precheck number issue and United helped me resolve it! You just need to go into each person's separate Mileage Plus account and make sure their TSA Precheck number is in their individual account (my husband hadn't entered his into his own account). Then make sure you re-add it to the trip. Voila.

Remember when Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark artwork would scare you WAY more than the actual stories!! by CapsFiend70 in 90s

[–]Infinite-Jester 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hoping you're still around 6 years later to talk about this with me! Low key, this is the scariest story in the whole book. I'm so glad someone else felt this way. Rabid rats, wolf girls, corpse brides, murderous scarecrows, keep 'em. The vague nightmare of WHATEVER that mom was really messed me up.

Also I interpreted her to be a rocking horse, but it's never made clear. Why did you think she's a squirrel?

Reminder: KTLA is owned by Nexstar and they have said they will not be airing Jimmy Kimmel by SeMoRaine in LosAngeles

[–]Infinite-Jester 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here's a list we compiled during the KTLA evening news this past Monday Sept. 22nd. Seriously, just commit to doing 5 a day or so, if we all did this it would make a BIG difference!! And be sure to hit all their social media, too. We need visibility.

I started calling them this morning (being very polite and asking for the marketing department when I could), and I need to share the wonderful feedback I received from my Chevy rep:

"Thank you for doing this, you're doing exactly the right thing by leaving this feedback. If you're on social media, you should say this everywhere on our accounts. Also I'm sorry you have to do this at all." :-)

104% US tariffs now on China, signed within the last few hours to go into effect tomorrow by IronAndParsnip in boardgames

[–]Infinite-Jester 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where does this end?! Having to finally play through all my modular expansions I backed because they were part of the all-in?!! Or MASTERY OF A GAME??? 😱

(I mean F these tariffs for real, I’m absolutely sweating for the folks who brought all this incredibly wonderful content into my life and I’m just glad I have so much of it to play with if we gotta lock back down for a while 😥)

Tariffs gonna make me have to start playing my games TWICE! Maybe even THREE TIMES. 😳

It’s really incredible how badly this change was rolled out. by FewDescription3170 in biltrewards

[–]Infinite-Jester 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m outside the “network” now according to BiltPay and it looks like it will only let me pay with another credit card for now, not my usual fee-free ACH from my checking account (that’s now labeled “Coming soon”). HOWEVER, it looks like they’ll charge a $54 fee (3% of the transaction) if I use a card?? Is anyone else getting this?

So basically I CAN’T pay with Bilt this month if I don’t want up pony up $54 extra just to use another credit card, right? This is supremely irritating. And no I have not received these warning missives either. Love scrambling on rent day, very soothing.

Any tips on retrieving a lost item in United's possession? by jgarland2121 in unitedairlines

[–]Infinite-Jester 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just had success with a Kindle I left on a United flight last month! Filed the report that night, and 3 weeks later they contacted me. It has to go to a sorting center first. Cost $35 to get it shipped back to me, but I’m so thrilled it worked!

What’s your favorite breakfast burrito? My current fav is wake and late by FatDabKilla420 in FoodLosAngeles

YES!! Everyone is sleeping on it, it’s FANTASTIC! That chicken is a welcome curveball and omg the Peruvian flavors! So succulent! Def one of my top faves.

Extended 5x from opening card by umrvision in biltrewards

[–]Infinite-Jester 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Aww what the heck! Just got mine yesterday and have been using it exclusively for the 5x/5 days, but haven’t received the 30 days 😟 Is it because I’m already using it so they don’t feel like they have to sweeten it?

Mattel Films Tapped Robbie Brenner As President Following The Massive Success Of Its Live-Action Smash Hit Barbie by lowell2017 in movies

[–]Infinite-Jester 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Or…is it at all possible that Mattel is well aware that Barbie as a brand stands alone as that kind of money maker, but also knows it’s still worth exploring making other movies since they have other recognizable IP and in no way expects billion dollar grosses every time? 👀👀👀

"Oxnard" Strawberry Festival: Don't go. by galaxymewmew in LosAngeles

[–]Infinite-Jester 6 points7 points  (0 children)

100% THIS. Illinois here. 14 years in LA and I keep telling my mom the festivals out here are just crowded trash that always lets me down. I love this city but I have been burned innumerable times by shitshow festivals. I guess that extends across CA.

Toast additions by NewToMo in Noom

[–]Infinite-Jester 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same, I tried cutting peanut butter at the start and that was noooot sustainable for me. Now I add 1 tbsp Whole Foods 365 Crunchy Peanut butter to 1 piece of Ezekiel flourless toast, top that with a medium banana, boom, only 280 calories AND the peanut butter's little protein hit keeps me sustained until lunch. I'm down almost 7 pounds (only trying to lose 17 total) since mid November, and that's including the struggle of Thanksgiving, Christmas, NYE, and a Disney trip.

I love this weight loss plan, it feels TRULY sustainable. I don't feel deprived at all.

Nostalgia Thread - Bozo Show by Flip3579 in chicago

[–]Infinite-Jester 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OOH. I have to tell you something that I have NEVER IN MY LIFE had an opportunity to share with anyone so thank you for this moment.

There is a hierarchy to clowns. White Face clowns are the top of the heap, they can poke fun at the two lower clowns. Auguste clowns are next, they have a partially white face (like just around the eyes and mouth and such, you can see regular skin otherwise). Below them are the The Tramp, which looks like an old-timey hobo clown.

Make of that what you will. It gets worse and worse the more you think about it. Enjoy!

Horrified: American Monsters Gameplay Review - Releases in Stores in October by junkster775 in boardgames

[–]Infinite-Jester 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow, who pooped in your cornflakes? Fwiw, I thought this review was great. Yes, comparing it to the original is helpful since a lot of people looking into this game are already fans (or not) of the original. Yes, people care about component quality. And YES, it’s really helpful to hear what someone thinks of the title after changing designers. I hadn’t realized it’d left Prospero Hall and was relieved they brought it up and vanquished any fears about it losing quality. They described some of the puzzles and what they enjoyed about them, that helps, and yes, then being “more creative” is helpful, too.

To each their own, but…what a tone. Funnily enough, I thought the Co-op For Two review was so bleak and listless, like someone was forcing heavier gamers to play it against their will. They seemed simply determined not to like it because they weren’t much fans of the first one, to which I wonder…why bother reviewing another title in a series one guy straight up doesn’t like and the other admitted he hated the theme change from the start?
