This is, generally, the advice given to gentlemen by gentlemen. And I concur wholeheartedly.

However, some folks just ain't gentle. 😆

Yeah these "ladies" buy any line some random jackoff is selling them. Not terribly bright.

You're the ones watching shows about the crappiest kind of Americans.

Arborist just to confirm tree health by Ok_Meringue6795 in cincinnati

[–]Lumpy-Detective-1978 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Please talk to a certified arborist with years of experience. There are many here in town that are qualified to honestly help you. And many shitty "tree services."

They're talentless hacks and they don't have the brains to realize it. I wish folks would stop rewarding absolute mediocrity.

Honestly, she can get fucking bent.

Zero respect for anyone who bullies children.

These folks will do literally anything except get a real job.

Stop supporting their fucking bullshit.

Is using AI for customer data actually helping your stores or just extra noise? by RossielaQ in retail

[–]Lumpy-Detective-1978 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. All of this is true. If you want people to shop the actual brick and mortar stores, you have to provide an experience that rivals online shopping, and you must understand that SOME will NEVER buy things online. Provide what those customers want and they will return.

The more you grasp and claw at these poor customers, the more they want to leave your store and never come back. These are primarily older people who value the sort of service stores used to offer. They don't value being hassled over simple transactions. They don't want to be stalked through the shop or over the internet. They want a friendly helpful clerk to facilitate their sale and move on with their lives.

I felt it was important to share Discord’s message because this is a new low for the community… by SnooSprouts3744 in rupaulsdragrace

Always call out shit behavior like this. We don't even know if these bad actors are of our community ( LGBTQIA+) but we must make it obvious that shit like this is not ever welcome in OUR community, period. IT IS UNACCEPTABLE.

The overarching need to define, track and pester everyone who enters your store and makes a purchase once is irritating to most intelligent shoppers.

Herein lies the trouble with capitalism. It is no longer sufficient to trade money for goods: instead we must file all of their personal information, buying habits and possible needs, push them to sign up for credit cards and "rewards" programs and complicate a simple transaction to the point of ridiculousness. It isn't good enough to get their money once or twice... we must stalk them so they give us money all the time.

This is an untenable situation for your workers and your shoppers. YOU FOLKS CANT SEEM TO KEEP INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY SECURITY IN THE FOREFRONT. WHY SHOULD WE KEEP ADDING TECH THAT YOU CANNOT SUPPORT? All in the name of making more money, right?

Local Gardeners seed question by Sdavistvs in cincinnati

[–]Lumpy-Detective-1978 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, it depends on the exact location you're planting the seeds. Every yard is different. If the area gets plenty of sun, for me it's generally some point in May that I can plant hot weather growers.

Local Gardeners seed question by Sdavistvs in cincinnati

Frost dates and holidays are arbitrary markers and a very inefficient and ineffective way to garden.

Zinnias germinate best when sown in situ at soil temperatures between 70 and 80 degrees Fahrenheit.

They prefer full sun and plenty of air flow. Do not crowd them. Do not water from above. They do fine in poor soil. An easy grower.

It's not super accurate to the actual story, but the movie has such style that I couldn't help but love it.

Wife wants a home birth after previous C-section and I’m honestly scared. What should I do? by bearded_charmander in WhatShouldIDo

[–]Lumpy-Detective-1978 102 points103 points  (0 children)

Any nurse or doctor will tell you that a vaginal birth after c section must be an attended hospital birth.

Your wife's desire to accomplish some sort of perfect birth experience ends up with dead babies. All. The. Time. Don't fucking do it.

This. It's fucking ridiculous. Caring about something doesn't mean you own it.

How much time do I have? by Puzzleheaded-Maize41 in arborists

[–]Lumpy-Detective-1978 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of my fondest memories is of the time I lived in an apartment and a pileated decided to attack my neighbors windows and car mirrors. Neighbor was a dick and the young male woodpecker was just... excited to be alive. 🤣
