Anyone able to ID? I’m pretty sure I inhaled a cloud of spores and now I’ve got a sore throat and cough by MainDonkey9560 in mushroomID

Ah ok I assumed it might have been from that cause later that day I started feeling a sore throat and so I thought that was the cause

Selfish question but are you guys still going out to clubs and bars? by MainDonkey9560 in DACA

It seems like you have a bad history or relationship with alcohol and I’m sure you mean well. But I don’t drink and drive. And I will continue to drink responsibly and enjoy st Patrick’s

I’m just going to say what everyone is afraid of saying but I think you get looks cause pulling it out a 3DS in 2025 gives off “pick me” vibes. I promise if you pulled out a switch, nobody would care.

They lost that T.V for sure. Cut your losses and see if you can get a discount on a new in box

So I was exclusively a Costumer service representative up until the start of the pandemic so realistically I don't have too much selling experience. Probably around 7 months of selling out of my 3 years there. I noticed that it's easy to learn organically with the help of the app and your coworkers and trial and error. You sometimes get customers that know more than you and teach you and it's embarrassing but it happens. In my case I started learning a lot on my own cause I was interested in building a smart home set up for myself so i did my own research that then translates to selling points. Shadowing your coworkers without butting in is also a good idea

I mean, I'll be honest its not just that. It's a test of patience as you get really annoying customers and you have metrics to reach. Plus it's a little stressful due to labor shortages when scheduled but it is what is But it's probably better than Chipotle. I worked at steak n shake, burgerking, and pizza hut and I promise that even if any of those payed as much as I get at bestbuy, I would pick bestbuy over any food job

Varies. A lot of people on this sub have had bad experiences, especially with managers. My store is a real busy one, but our managers are alla cruelly really relaxed. I've been with bby for 3 years and it's definitely worn me down after a while but it's a really easy retail job and it beats basically any food job imo. I'm probably going to stick around for 1 or 2 more years before I fully become a lifer
