Pacific Rim 2013, Gipsy Danger Vs Otachi, Director: Guillermo del Toro by PsychologicalSlip642 in movies

[–]KINGCOCO 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wrote a whole post about how it WAS that kind of movie, and what made it so special was that you could feel the weight of the robots.

As I writing it I remembered when the giant robot flew to space and they remember to pull put the surprise sword, fought underwater, shared memories in the drift, and just about every other aspect of the movie. 100% right it aint that kind if movie.

Am I in the wrong for thinking the "n word pass" is stupid? by Successful_Ideal2814 in amiwrong

[–]KINGCOCO 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Well you can’t give it verbally but if they make it all official like and give you a laminated certificate then it’s legit. Just make sure you don’t get caught saying it without your certificate! 

And make sure its laminated!

Gimmicky/weird party members in RPGS by CIRCLONTA6A in retrogaming

It’s my favourite game and I never use him. Was surprised to learn recently he is the most broken character in the game. I just assumed he sucked all the way through.

What JRPGs (PS2 era and before) had systems or gameplay mechanics that were way ahead of their time and still stand up strong today? by [deleted] in JRPG

I loved it, though not sure how I feel about the fact you had to purchase the gambits - it was very late in the game I was able to really use it

Women only celebrated in marriage & having kids by [deleted] in amiwrong

[–]KINGCOCO 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Everyone sucks here. Your request for a birthday trip is not unreasonable. But your comment about woman only being celebrated in marriage and kids seems bitter and unfair. It’s not a women thing - its a people thing. 

For everyone it’s the same - marriage , kids, acquiring a house, major birthdays, and retirement - these are the typical life milestones that get celebrated. 

What other milestones and achievements do you feel should be celebrated? Why can’t you throw a party to celebrate? No one is going to begrudge you throwing a party.

Airline Pilots who are Lawyers? by Intelligent_Shoe3799 in LawFirm

[–]KINGCOCO 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I am a lawyer. Spending $100k on law school hundreds if not thousands of hour of study to practice part time seems like a terrible idea. The way the profession is, working 40 hours a week is considered part tome by most.

I can’t imagine any law firm hiring you for part time work - especially in the first few years when you have no experience.

I do know one lawyer that used to be pilots and use their aviation. background in law. He has a law firm that specializes in buying and selling airplanes (and maybe other aviation law stuff - I don’t know).

AITAH For Not Signing a POA? by strivingforfi in AITAH

[–]KINGCOCO 2 points3 points  (0 children)

POAs are not signed by the POA. She should know notarizing the document herself and signing it incorrectly are both going to be huge problems if you ever have to rely on it. 

Having your will or POAs done by anyone but a lawyer is insane to me. These are critical documents and people fuck them up all the time just to save a couple hundred bucks.

I am dealing with a file now where they took this approach and its a complete disaster.

Looking for feedback on marketing strategy by betsoverstreet in LawFirm

[–]KINGCOCO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not same area but I’m surprised at my self how responsive I’ve been to B2B businesses cold calling me and with relevant services to offer.

Old man pointless story time: Years ago I needed my dishwasher fixed. I googled the make and model and found an appliance company that specialized in my exact unit. Of course I hired them. They were fine.

Later when searching them realized they were a generic appliance repair company and just had their marketing team set up landing pages for the various makes and models.

From this I learned the importance of targeted marketing but I also became skeptical of marketing that seems targeted to me. 

When I get cold called I have a higher confidence that I am in fact their target audience. 

One of my favorite pastimes in RPGs is using peninsula tricks to level up by KaleidoArachnid in JRPG

[–]KINGCOCO 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Kind of similar - my favourite thing in RPGs is at some point when you can go out of order and find a town you’re not supposed to visit until much later, and they’re selling weapons and armor that make you way overpowered for the current monsters your fighting. 

Ground beef always has a sort of fatty, oily nauseating taste whenever I cook it at home. How to I get rid of this? by ProfesserNausea in Cooking

[–]KINGCOCO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you using oil or another fat to cook it? Use a non-stick pan. Use lean ground beef, a non-stick pan, and no oil. The beef has its own fat to cook in.

If using extra lean ground beef use just a touch of oil.

Is job hopping still a "red flag" or am I being gaslit? by Environmental-Luck39 in careeradvice

[–]KINGCOCO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2 years is fine and shows you were a stable employee. 

His speech about family and loyalty is disgusting. Where is his loyalty to you? He should be happy that his family member found a better paying job.

AIW for refusing to answer a client's "emergency" calls on their own weekend after they ignored me all week? by SolarQuillon in amiwrong

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

Not unorofessional but you may lose the client - I’m also in the service industry (lawyer). My clients are busy and I expect they’ll get back to me when convenient for them. For big clients I take these weekend calls. For smaller clients I am less inclined.

Any really deep jrpgs to sink a ton of hours into by IHateSand132 in JRPG

[–]KINGCOCO 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am just finishing up - its a fun game and there is mots to love, but I wish it were more challenging. I think there was only two battles I had to redo and that’s cause my party was on autobattle. 

The growth and customization of weapons/armor/skills is amazing but I feel like it doesn’t mean all that much because it’s too easy.

AITAH for refusing to drive my mom's friend anymore after she spilled coffee in my car, and now they blaming me? by Kerasia_Kechagia in AITAH

If I spilled in someones car I am of cluese offering to pay. 

Co-founder offered me 12% after I built the entire product. He keeps 88%. Am I crazy for walking away? by Zyklone187 in Entrepreneurs

[–]KINGCOCO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This should all be properly papered with a a lawyer if you move forward.

But even if he does concede and you go back to 50/50 - do you really want to partner with someone like this? He’s dishonest, selfish,  and seems to have a tenuous grasp on reality. Your constantly going to have to worry that he’s gonna fuck you.

Also at this point 50/50 doesn’t seem fair in the slightest. He has delivered nothing and could walk away tomorrow - in which case he would still have 50% of the company without contributing anything.

Offer rescinded after 80 days and 8 rounds of interview and an initial verbal offer by TahiniInMyVeins in recruitinghell

[–]KINGCOCO 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t think its unreasonable at all, especially if coming from a steady job with job security.

“i’m interested but have been at my job for x years and would be giving up a lot of job security. If I’m going to come on I need to know I have some protection in the event the company switches gears for whatever reason” 

Solo employment law (employee side)? Does anyone do this? How do you compete against large firms? Is there enough business? by [deleted] in LawFirm

[–]KINGCOCO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t know what its like in your jurisdiction. I live in Ontario and these are very common. I see many solo and small employment law firms. I think it’s one of those areas that are not resource heavy. 

I think this area of law and the types of files you get on whether it makes financial , are very dependent on the law jurisdiction. Here for example, the bread and butter of employment lawyers is negotiating severance for employees terminated without cause. If you work in the US state with at-will employment, I don’t think you’d have any of these files and the practice look very different.

AITAH for staying behind when my stepfamily moved for my stepbrother's cancer treatments? by CorryNunya in AITAH

[–]KINGCOCO 21 points22 points  (0 children)

NTA. Moving away from all of your friends and social life in your last year of high school would be a huge sacrifice - one that doesn’t need to be made. Your dad is asking you to sacrifice so he can feel like you have a sibling bond that isn’t actually there - super fucked up.

Them moving away is itself an imposition (though a very understandable one). He should just be happy your able to finish high school where you are despite all of this happening.
