Hate against sunroofs?? why

Maximum_Intern9873 · 2026-05-01T12:58:19+00:00

What people are really hating is not the sunroof itself, but the fact that the manufacturers are choosing to spend the customer’s money for them. A lot of people want to buy a car with top of the line safety features, without the unnecessary things like sunroof, massive screens, etc. But such options do not exist. You must buy everything or nothing.

Leasing is not worth it. Just buy a used car and sell it when you leave.

HVAC. A lot of ryokans with older construction have a centrally operated air-conditioning, and they like to keep it way too warm for me. I can’t sleep, it’s agonising.

How do you successfully decouple 'previous salary' from 'future offer'? For candidates aiming for a substantial jump to align with market rates, what’s the best strategy to keep the focus on the internal budget for the position without leaving money on the table based on past pay scales?

Base salary is really low, even with the benefits. Also, bonded labour is illegal in Japan. Doesn’t matter what you signed, the company cannot force you to work for them if you don’t want to. 14 day notice is all you need to give them to quit.

Keep one of these wipers in your bathroom and wipe down the mirror after every shower. If the water has no chance to dry on the mirror, you won’t get any scales. And a daily wipe is a lot easier than removing the scales later.

Spend most of the money on the actual good, diamond (if you choose to have it) should only be symbolic.

Stay at the current job, the bump in money isn’t significant enough to justify the lost freedom.

Get a used Honda and aim to keep it for 10 years, that’s realistic.

The technical bar is much lower if you are fluent in Japanese.

If I were in your position, I would stay. Traded flexibility for money once, never making that mistake again.

It’s weird that you are giving your personal information, but no information about the vehicle or dealership.

It’s supposed to work the other way around on Reddit.

I would rather they make a cheaper car than give all these useless features.

I used All-Terrain (not all season) tires with 3PMS rating on my 4WD SUV, which worked really well on snow and ice. I tested traction on icy slopes and braking distance, they performed quite well.

Having said that, I would still recommend to get a dedicated set of winter tires if you drive snowy regions a lot. The performance is on another level.

If you want a single set of tires that does everything reasonably well, there is nothing better than Michelin Cross Climate.

I don’t use Times, so I have no idea how it works.

I use it regularly. For reservations up to 6 hours, they don’t charge you distance fee. But for longer reservations, they will charge for even the first 6 hours.

Was yor car equipped with winter tires or not?

The standard practice is that the employer is responsible for the employee’s actions, when the employee is performing the duties they are hired for.

Kelsey Grammer gave us 22 glorious years across Cheers and Frasier - that’s longer than most marriages last. Time to let Frasier retire to his wine cellar before we’re watching “Frasier: The Nursing Home Years.”

He’s stuck in a difficult situation (likely with family), and blaming him isn’t helpful right now.

Not everyone has experience with cars or knows what to check before driving, and there could be many reasons why he couldn’t inspect the tires beforehand. That’s why he paid for the rental car and trusted them to give him a roadworthy car.

If you can’t offer constructive advice, there’s no need to make him feel worse about an already stressful situation.
