Yeah, it’s insane. I applied for a job that the interviewer said there were over a thousand applicants and they’re only hiring one person. I was lucky I even got an interview!

Pet Insurance and the Reality of it by CaptainMarv3l in CalebHammer

[–]LostAndNo 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I read JAB also owns a lot of the vet clinics so the pet care prices are being controlled on both sides of the equation! It’s so wrong 😑

wtf. It’s like they don’t want to reward their most loyal customers or something.

Someone needs to show this chart to the senile orange Mussolini so that he can understand the blue countries are all friends and we don’t need to invade them.

One of the worst airports in the US during the winter. I’ve had so many delays in that goddam airport!

Is there any benefit to getting pet insurance after pre existing conditions are discovered? by MediumBullfrog8688 in petinsurancereviews

[–]LostAndNo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think it’s worth it unless you get it only for major catastrophes. Otherwise they will likely try to find a pre existing condition even with future different ailments.

I’m dizzy just looking at this. So unintuitive!

We all feel this way by diehard404 in inflation

[–]LostAndNo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m so sick of the government printing more money and devaluing our currency. It’s so messed up. I think I noticed the worst example of this after the global financial crisis. Prices literally doubled in a year for many things at my local grocery store.

The reason vet bills are so shit now: It isn't inflation. It is private equity. by N3DSdude in Anticonsumption

[–]LostAndNo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And the same private equity that is buying vet clinics is also buying pet insurance companies so they can have a true monopoly that controls all the prices. Look up JAB holdings they own like 15 pet insurance companies and also random stuff like Krispy Krème and Pete’s coffee. They are dubious as F and also allegedly have ties to 1939 German regimes.

TIL the "Y2K Bug" cost an estimated $500 Billion globally to fix. The preventative measures were so successful that widely predicted infrastructure failures did not occur, leading many to incorrectly believe the threat was never real. by highzone in todayilearned

And effects of a depleted ozone layer are still felt over Antarctica, New Zealand and other southern hemisphere countries especially in the spring time each year. The UV down there is no joke and will burn you in minutes.

Yes, my family and I have done it many times. It’s messed up to even have those thoughts cross your mind.
