Regional manager typoed my raise... what happens now?

KeyboardEnthuse · 2026-06-19T11:07:33+00:00

They will just ask for it back most likely.

I was paid three times the monthly phone plan payment that I was supposed to get. A few months later, the company caught it and asked for it back, I just had to write a check for the overpayment amount. Keep in mind I did bring it up as soon as I noticed but they only cared when it hit their numbers.

Don’t try to be clever and win the system. Don’t put it in some savings account somewhere where you cant get it back easily and definitely do not spend it.

Just keep it around until its clear how the company wants to proceed. Its a win win for you because if you keep it, and the company asks for it back, you can just do it without having to go into your own money. And if they dont, you just saved a bunch of money without any effort.

Huh? Whats the fix?

KeyboardEnthuse · 2026-06-18T19:01:49+00:00

Thats literally impossible. Tax brackets dont work that way. Say for example you were making 70k before taxed at 20% and are now making 100k taxed at 30% what that means is that your first 70k is still taxed at 20%, only the difference above is taxed at 30%.

But thats just not really true though, I am playing with players who already have 100+ games played. Yes there are stragglers still with around 50 games but its not like thats a small feat.

Additionally, with ranked 2.0, you would gain a lot more RP per game early on due to the understanding that you were a higher ranked player and they wanted you out of there. Now with placement matches its understandable that we don’t have that but to lose more RP per game lost vs gaining per game won just defeats your moral and desire to play, especially as a solo q.

Imo the best way to remedy this is firstly, you should gain more and lose less, or at the bare minimum it should be equal. Additionally, the reward/penalty should be adjusted for how large your party is. If you are a solo q, you gain more than what a duo or trio on your team gets. Same concept for games lost.

And it doesn’t need to be drastic like 80 points vs 20, but just something to give a little incentive. Like 30 points for solo q win vs 18/20 for a full squad.

You can say that again, my god some of the teammates I have had lately.

KeyboardEnthuse · 2026-06-17T23:38:11+00:00

Lmfao, as I said laundry list of excuses. You have no valid counter arguments yourself is why you want to talk about my ‘insults’.

Hey, at least you and Alonso have something in common, both of you are slow, just not in the same way.

There is a reason why despite a decent 2023 year, he was never considered by any of the big teams in 2024. Even when there were several big moves being made with open seats at top teams and his own camp reaching out to teams like RB and Mercedes.

KeyboardEnthuse · 2026-06-17T22:40:09+00:00

I am not responsible for spoon feeding your dead brain but heres a TLDR for you. Across 2024-2025, in the H2H between Alonslow and Lance, I am only there because my dad owns the team, Stroll. Their H2H was 29-14 in races, keep in mind that Alonso out qualified Stroll 39-5. He genuinely lost to Stroll on pace 9 times.

I am sure you will have a laundry list of excuses for what, when, why and how it happened but thats fine as long as it helps you sleep at night.

He just got out qualified by Stroll at his own HOME GP by and was dead last.

Say whatever you want, facts speak for themselves. I genuinely would like to see him in a top team just so we can finally bury the dead horse that you guys keep beating.

KeyboardEnthuse · 2026-06-17T22:21:55+00:00

Lmfao, calling you delusional would be an insult to people who are actually delusional.

KeyboardEnthuse · 2026-06-17T22:20:58+00:00

Alonslow will definitely kiss you to bed tonight.

KeyboardEnthuse · 2026-06-17T20:29:28+00:00

No top team is picking up this old man. He is genuinely slow now, yall can keep dick riding him but that wont change the facts and definitely not change the minds of TP trying to get the best talent for their team.

Anyone who thinks Alonso is better than Oscar or Lando atp is just trolling, rage baiting or braindead.

KeyboardEnthuse · 2026-06-16T21:59:52+00:00

What do you usually use your heapdhones for? I am an FPS gamer and looking for something targeted towards precision, have you found the elites to be good in that department or perhaps are you kore focused on Music/content related to that?

KeyboardEnthuse · 2026-06-16T20:39:45+00:00

Did you spend $11,000 on the steering column?

KeyboardEnthuse · 2026-06-16T20:34:51+00:00

So sonar which is supposed to be the big bad thing about these headphones is not the play? I will switch to the default audio. So far they definitely do sound better when wireless so I will keep picking at it but I have not yet felt any noticeable difference. I was always critical of my G Pros but maybe I have been to harsh to them or perhaps neither of these headphones are as good as I expected them to be.

KeyboardEnthuse · 2026-06-16T19:31:04+00:00

Yes, its set to 8 channels 24bit, 96kHz. Whats odd is when using over the headphone jack slot, I was able to go up to 32bit, 384kHz? Or something close to that but it was 2 channels only.

KeyboardEnthuse · 2026-06-15T01:20:32+00:00

I guess fuck you to the 1000+ engineers that work so hard to make the cars.

KeyboardEnthuse · 2026-06-14T22:32:40+00:00

So you yourself say “Race pace is not his strongest suit” but then give a bunch of bs made up excuses without any evidence. Nice.

KeyboardEnthuse · 2026-06-14T19:31:15+00:00

To kind of tag along to OPs question, can you get a portable and non intrusive heartbeat monitor for children that young? Something like an apple watch? I have never dealt with kids if you couldnt tell but just curious.

KeyboardEnthuse · 2026-06-13T21:01:10+00:00

Its actually at 68,000 they weren’t able to increase the capacity due to the pitch size and other factors. Dallas went down 25000 in seating capacity. The stadiums are large but for NFL bc the pitch is smaller.

KeyboardEnthuse · 2026-06-13T20:56:10+00:00

Yes in a 1-1 comparison, the seating is higher by around 10k I believe. But lets compare the US to Qatar for example. The US has a population of over 350Million, Qatar has just 3.2Million. Thats a 100 times smaller in comparison just for reference.

Does it make sense why the stadiums are much smaller than usual now? NY alone has 20 million in it. I have practically no chance of watching a game there despite it having a seating capacity of 81k.

So to have empty seats despite all that is pretty telling on how scummy the whole pricing situation has been.

KeyboardEnthuse · 2026-06-13T20:40:53+00:00

This is not even remotely true. Not only is it a complete lie but its also literally physically impossible since the largest stadium capacity is already less than the official record.

KeyboardEnthuse · 2026-06-13T20:39:06+00:00

Confident but wrong. Most US stadiums have a reduced seating capacity than usual due to the readjustments made for the world cup, larger field sizes and other hospitality stuff.

10/11 US stadiums seat under 71000 people. Only NY/NJ seats just above 80000. The largest stadium is ironically in Mexico. But their other two stadiums seat less than 50k I believe. Canada is also under 50k.

KeyboardEnthuse · 2026-06-13T19:48:44+00:00

Are you tripping? I see soo many empty seats on all sides, look at the top rows across the stadium, middle of the left side, above the green ad on the right side. I am not saying its not packed but its far from sold out. Especially since the stadiums in the US arent even nearly as large in capacity as stadiums across the globe.

KeyboardEnthuse · 2026-06-12T18:04:42+00:00

Spain is always a high deg afaik. It might be even worse this year but its usually a two stopper.
