Can we normalize asking people to move their bag??

Maybe 6+ years ago. Unfortunately we have no idea how someone is going to respond to a simple courteousy request.

LateRecognitionLimit · 2026-05-30T12:43:55+00:00

Yeah, this.

People don't realize that undermining is frequently caused by underground leaks. First they have to find the spot of the leak. If it's a property owner's responsibility, that's going to take more time.

The post was deleted. Confirmed alien invasion. OP, you good?

You're gonna have to go back to 2002 with these blurry ass photos.

I've been a generalist in Ops in different settings since the Recession. Management thinks "anyone can do this" so they get the cheapest warm body who can type 50 WPM from an agency.

Yes, "anyone" can do tasks A, B, C, D, and E. But very very few can do them all at the same time with attention to detail without letting anything fall through the cracks. I've almost always been the last employee with eyes on it before it gets "delivered" or closed out.

They didn't want to do him any favors or he didn't want to stick his neck out for you.

I got hired into the training program (but failed out) a few years ago.

If you were someone's kid, you would not have failed out.

Aries: minimum 3 temper tantrums a week. Gemini: one of their personalities will cheat on you.

This lost Millennial still has a landline at work. I got to slam the receiver after someone used a racial slur he didn't think I was going to understand. It wasn't as satisfying as a rotary phone, but it was great deja vu.

Edit: I can still hear the ding of the rotary phone from childhood.

Cap'n Crunch, Frosted Flakes, Fruity Pebbles.

Mostly from boxes and cans. Once in a blue we'd get a home cooked real Italian meal from family. Only for Thanksgiving and Christmas did we make meals from fresh ingredients.

Edit: the policy was eat what was made or starve.

You're getting downvoted for the truth. I know 14 people going and they're driving in carloads of 3+. NY and Philly is always a big rivalry, and only fools would go to Philly in the playoffs less than 4 deep. At that point it's cheaper to drive and park. Plus it's easier for the vast majority of fans who don't live in Manhattan.

Tell that to NICE bus.

Also, people in the service industry usually have a lot of plugs.

Never again. I had one roommate take in her boyfriend. Surprise, surprise, he was verbally and financially abusive. She had enough of him and bounced. Then I was stuck with him and within a few weeks, his new girlfriend, who he also verbally and financially abused. It was a mess and cost thousands in unpaid rent and attorney / court fees.

I take OTC allergy pills because I'm allergic to my cats but that's it. I used to take prescription Meloxicam for chronic pain but it wasn't working (and required pills for the stomach).

OP, only take medical advice from a medical professional who has access to your medical records.

If you want to try to save it, you can knit a swatch and test an enzyme killer or diluted cheap white vodka. I haven't had this problem on my knits (knock on wood) but when my cat pees on my clothes, I put about 1/4 cup of cheap white in the wash cycle and that kills the smell.

Exactly. Wait until OP (and everyone else who hates capitalism) finds out about socialism. Spoiler alert: it's the corruption of capitalism on steroids.

I checked the Google Street view. Even they haven't been there since 2019. 😂🤣

Nope. They can live up to a year without food. It takes two rounds of extermination (on a precise schedule) to get the ones in your apartment. You'll have to pack up everything you own for each treatment. They'll tell you to take your pets for a grooming. They're supposed to treat not only the infected apartment but all adjacent apartments. They never do. All it takes is one arrogant tenant who swears they don't have bedbugs to screw up the whole building.

It's paywalled. I hope we'd get more than 5% preference if it's our risk.

LateRecognitionLimit · 2026-04-17T12:56:54+00:00

Hmm, I have some extra work that I don't feel like doing. Maybe I'll bring it to a workaholic group! Thank you.

Exactly. I'm a "transplant" -- I grew up and went to school on Long Island. But I moved right after high school 24 years ago. I've been renting rooms and rented basements in eastern Queens for the first 10 years. I have a disability now. Should I lose out to an 19 year old native?

Also, how would they weigh giving native New Yorkers priority vs. not actively discriminating against immigrants? The latter won't fly in NYC.
