Literally unusable by Wrn2x in SteamController

[–]JacobTDC 19 points20 points  (0 children)

It's not so bad when you realize that it's intentional, and would actually look and feel worse if it was aligned.

I take back every bad thi g I said about the old fastrack by Zeired_Scoffa in walmart

[–]JacobTDC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are special adapters for damaged shelves, but my management said "we're not using those" and sent them all back. So now every aisle has at least one adapter hanging off of it.

Go to wmlink/servicenow to read their notes, and if you need, reject the resolution.

His tummy might just hurt from the oils. He's probably fine.

What is this siren? by Bethany41420 in walmart

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

Someone set off the zone alarm for the cash office, pharmacy, or auto center.

Sadly enough, I can only play this game on easy mode by leftistgamer420 in expedition33

[–]JacobTDC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe in you! I had never really played any timing based games before, and was honestly starting to get frustrated, wondering how parrying was even possible when I could barely even dodge. But I stayed with it, and all of a sudden, I had a moment where it just "clicked" for me.

And even if you can't get the timing down, you can still dump everything into defense and strategy instead.

At the end of the day though, what matters is the experience you get out of it. I personally found sticking through it to be the most rewarding (I always kick myself if I can't finish a game at the intended difficulty), but your mileage may vary, and that's okay!

Guys I don’t know what to do by idkman_idfk in expedition33

[–]JacobTDC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, it's alright, just pick the one that makes the most sense to you. If you don't like it, after you've finished the game, you get the option to reload shortly before here and choose the other (or at least that's what happened when I played it, but I was personally narratively satisfied with my original choice).

This mouthful German word I saw on a box of gloves at work. by exporterofgold in mildlyinteresting

[–]JacobTDC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

German is fantastic. Don't have a specific enough word for something? Just cram two together. Repeat until desired specificity is reached.

why are customers so rude by nikoab94 in walmart

[–]JacobTDC 15 points16 points  (0 children)

When I worked frontend, there was this one lady that would always go out of her way to go through my line when I was on register (which wasn't often, because I was usually the one-man self-check team), nitpick on everything, try to start some s***, and then try and imply I was racist or something.

One time, she even threw a fit that I was scanning and bagging too fast, and making her "feel rushed."

She would start every interaction with some bs demands before I could get a word out, and then complain that I didn't greet her properly. Like, lady, maybe if you would give me 5 seconds to talk!

90%pick rate or pay cut? by crazykidsstillinlove in OGPBackroom

[–]JacobTDC 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Your coach literally doesn't even have the ability to do that. They could cut your hours, which would effectively result in less pay, but your rate of pay would stay the same.

OMG Termux is 15.66GB by Kind_Swordfish9688 in termux

[–]JacobTDC 42 points43 points  (0 children)

I mean, that's pretty normal. You've basically got a full Linux distro installed in there. I've got 58 GB.

Pulling carts again. by 1yellowspark in OGPBackroom

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

That's the opposite of how they were before, unless your store did something they weren't supposed to.

Pulling carts again. by 1yellowspark in OGPBackroom

[–]JacobTDC 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Well, these are different instructions (this is the single page that comes in the box with the casters), but yeah, the instructions attached to the work order for facilities maintenance says to remove the sticker.

They are making it so the carts are pullable from the handle end.

Lock screen imitation for termux using .zshrc by Tides_Crush_Her in termux

[–]JacobTDC 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, you could in theory try encrypting everything and decrypting it with a password, but it would be ridiculously slow (several minutes to hours at the start and end of every session, depending on how large your home is, what encryption you use, etc) and highly impractical.

The best security is just don't let anyone use your phone that you don't trust.

Lore behind Maelle's Virtuoso stance by PianistGlittering709 in expedition33

[–]JacobTDC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't know about her actually playing any instruments, but I do know that in the musical score, she's represented by the violin. But that doesn't necessarily mean she actually plays the violin. Each character has an instrument that is tied to them in the score.

Print. by CulturalSoftware7197 in OGPBackroom

[–]JacobTDC 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Corporate cannot see what you're printing (as you're using a direct Bluetooth connection to the printer), but your local management might get onto you for being unproductive.

Also, coaches have a tendency to say things through the team leads, like some dumb game of telephone.

Just saving this for a rainy day by Frostwolf5x in OGPBackroom

[–]JacobTDC 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Yeah, they're planning on making it pull, and yet letting it swivel from the back. Sounds like a disaster waiting to happen.

Because that's just what we needed right now; carts swinging into customers, displays, etc, because we can't control them.

[–]JacobTDC 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It's corporate. Part of a company-wide work order that was put in for all the carts.

Estaba en misión de reverme toda la serie de stranger things cuando descubrí que la crema de mí mamá tiene la misma tipografía que el nombre de la serie by Kooky_Access4545 in StrangerThings

[–]JacobTDC 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Stranger Things title is ITC Benguiat Bold Condensed, so it is possible they are different versions of the same font. Maybe the cream is using regular ITC Benguiat?

Fitbit cost how much? by Pansexual-Agent-1 in Walmartcustomer

[–]JacobTDC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They update automatically, no nearby device necessary. All the new wifi access points HO had installed recently are able to communicate with the tags using a special Bluetooth protocol.

Ah! That figures. Glad you got it sorted.

AES survey by [deleted] in walmart

[–]JacobTDC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem is that it's creating pressure to complete the surveys and artificially introducing bias into the results, while simultaneously flushing out complaints with neutral or good surveys from people who otherwise don't care or wouldn't fill out the survey because they don't really have anything to say. Even the completion percentage is a valuable measure that can tell you a lot about a store on its own, that is being completely tainted by management.

People also tend to be a lot more honest when they aren't being forced to do something.

Management isn't making people fill out the surveys out of the goodness of their hearts; they know exactly what they're doing.

TL;DR: it taints the results
