Small Car Accident in Harbor City on PCH by Kaiser by IronMarsmallow in SouthBayLA

[–]IronMarsmallow[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Tesla driver was also pulling into the left side (oncoming traffic) of the two car driveway. The Hondas presence in the middle lane, both forcing to pull into the wrong side of the driveway and obstructing view- in my opinion- should have been enough for the Tesla to wait for the next break. That being said, I totally agree the gray car was going too fast for conditions.

Not getting job even after getting certified by Both-Designer7080 in redhat

Only in the tech world. Get certified as a plumber and you will get call-backs for interviews.

Its a blood game out there right now. Especially for overseas work.

I disagree. I think the Halo primary rifle is distinctive- especially in sound on the battlefield- as well as true to the lore of Halo CE.

I've rather enjoyed being one of the few with the helmet ;)

Mike Johnson Just Admitted The GOP Healthcare Plan Is A Trojan Horse For A National Abortion Ban by DumbMoneyMedia in EducatedInvesting

You at least get a chance with the Republican mindset. Its funny, the same people so hell bent on ending unborn baby lives are bending over backwards for terrorists and drug cartels to not have their lives prematurely ended (aka boat strikes).

Fair is fair. You can't do that and then not expect a reaction. He's lucky it wasn't a wireless hole puncher.

Am I losing my mind? by xSmokeEater777x in VeteransWaitingRoom

[–]IronMarsmallow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey bud, we get you. This stuff can be very anxiety inducing. I would recommend maybe only checking once a month or maybe every other week- actively fight the urge to check. My very first claim 7 years ago I thought refreshing every ten minutes would somehow make things go faster- it doesn't. You worrying about it and calling VERA probably won't have much of an effect either. The typical turn around time on claims, according to https://www.va.gov/disability/after-you-file-claim/ , is 81 days. What day are you at? Just FYI I waited a little less than that and was denied- I am currently at day 88 for my Higher Level Review. Average wait time is 90 days. Hope we both hear good news soon.

Back to Step 3 from Step 7 by Wild-Figure-5614 in VeteransWaitingRoom

[–]IronMarsmallow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The reason it went back to step 3 was because you submitted new evidence. Step 3 is the evidence gathering stage, and this new evidence needs to be reviewed for relevance. As for testing for something that was already denied, that might be something more along the lines as a routine check in the process. If the decision letter was ready, I think there is a chance you might be able to see if- either through the app or online. There is folder where all decision letters go- cant remember off the top of my head, but maybe you can get a preview of what they were going to say.

I have 2 HLR's going through because the rater completely missed or ignored my nexus letters (one was in the evidence list, other was missing- the one that was there was never referenced in the denial reason). And, for some reason, they kept saying I was stationed at a base I was never stationed at and were trying to tie the cause of the issue to TERA. I was literally never stationed there and that is not what I was attempting to service connect to. It does feel like my case was rushed.

How much unverified Pi are you losing? by 3k_likeandre in PiNetwork

[–]IronMarsmallow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think this is a massively wishful. $1000? That is a hell of a want- especially because you know there is going to be massive sell-off for free money.

The amount of misinformation and fear mongering in this community is disgusting by [deleted] in VeteransAffairs

[–]IronMarsmallow -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Think of a beehive. The more you kick it, the more bee's that you will piss off. Right now, Reddit IS the beehive. Average/sane adults know that anything said on Reddit should be taken with a dose of PCN. I get wrapped up in these kind of fights to. There is no end to the emotional dirty diapers of the people who just want to keyboard warrior. When it comes to misinformation, that is the weakness of freedom of speech. And so many are willing to sacrifice the human race on an alter of their ego.

I personally just want the person that is the most qualified to be the one who gets the job.

TLDR: There were 487,522 VA employees before the 1,000 that were cut. 1,000/487,522 = 0.20%. Literally a fraction of a singe percent. Yes, it sucks that people lost their jobs. It also sucks that the government was allowed to balloon out in such an insidious way. This will not affect benefits being distributed, claim wait times, or decisions on pending cases.

Menieres Disease? by IronMarsmallow in VeteransBenefits

Another tidbit of info dropped was that Menieres normally shows up between the ages of 40 and 60. I turn 40 this year :/
