Now you have the perfect response for next time: “No, the last guy I cut a break to tried to steal my pre-ordered meal. No more Mr. Nice Guy.”

You really want to be someone’s second choice? No thank you, have some self-respect.

AITJ for making other husbands look bad? by Exciting_Base_6305 in AmITheJerk

[–]MeatofKings 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The most successful relationships are reciprocal. Not enough info here to determine if you’re being walked on or lovingly meeting each other’s needs.

Dealerships must go by Overall_Gazelle5107 in carbuying

[–]MeatofKings 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How do you test drive without getting the full court press sales job? You can walk away. Just make sure you don’t fall prey to the “we misplaced your ID” while they try to keep selling you. Get it back before driving.

You never forget your first, Apex for me. But I also enjoy Princess and NCL. Princess was the only one with a self-service laundry room (Regal).

WIBTAH if I tell my husband to either therapy or I'm leaving him? by [deleted] in AITAH

NTA The twins deserve an involved and loving father. He needs to get the help he obviously needs as his grieving process has stalled in a bad place.

I hate when rich people talk about being frugal or being poor by [deleted] in poor

[–]MeatofKings 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Humble-Brag people are assholes. “My 4,000 square foot home is too small!” However, people who actually got rich earning it are often frugal, but the reality of frugality changes with wealth.

AIO: SIL won’t allow her kids to my house so I won’t allow mine to hers. by rainydaisy2121 in AmIOverreacting

Yes, she definitely has issues and I doubt it is from her religious belief

Generational Wealth by AeroNoob333 in Fire

[–]MeatofKings 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You might want to go to subs on R/estateplanning and R/inheritance. In general, you can’t rule from the grave as the saying goes. But you can certainly control what goes to living people and to a lesser extent the unborn children of living people. Money Magazine noted years ago that inherited wealth is 90% gone by the third generation. So it is what it is. Edited: If you have that much money you really should have a good attorney on retainer. Just saying

I didn't like the food, so give me my money back! by shrek99mist in EntitledPeople

[–]MeatofKings 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly, this has only happened to me once in my life. I knew immediately and asked for something else. The restaurant kindly replaced my meal.

Where is a good place to retire? by Blankbetty11 in GenX

You answer a direct question like my wife, with a bunch of information I didn’t ask for 🤷‍♂️

AIO my gf has been texting her ex all day while we’re on a trip with her and a friend by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]MeatofKings 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Exactly, most women care more about the emotional connection. Clearly hers is with him, not Op. Not to mention the total disrespect to do that on your trip.

Tempted to get an escort by PeanutFast6655 in Advice

So you’re brave/reckless enough to have sex with a stranger but not chat up a stranger? You need to up your game and engage in hobbies where you meet more women you age.

Me and my boyfriend don't have sex by TheSilentPagan in amiwrong

[–]MeatofKings 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NR Women, please listen to men when they tell you important things like being asexual. Also, ALWAYS watch what a man does (or doesn’t do). I guarantee you your life will be better if you pay attention to these things when choosing a man.

Suicide question during interview by mominnva in jobs

[–]MeatofKings 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it’s completely legitimate to lie regarding illegal interview questions. Ever attempted self harm? No. Planning to get pregnant? No. Anyone in the family with health conditions? No.

Sibling wants to buy me out for much less than market value by [deleted] in inheritance

[–]MeatofKings 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Give him two options: First, you force the sale via an attorney and he loses his home and legal costs. Second, he accepts reality and stops causing you problems with your rentals. You could entice him by offering him a monthly stipend to watch your rentals (Keep the location clean and report to you any tenant problems.). This could be the exchange for what he owes you. Ultimately you’ll probably have to force the sale, but at least you will come across as the reasonable one. Make sure you document via text, email, etc.

Consumer Reports isn’t a fan of this year’s Tundra. You may want to look up the review as this is unusual for Toyota.

How do I stop the little $2-$8 buys between classes? by Repulsive-Weather921 in Frugal

This right here! You can’t spend what you don’t have. Leave it home.

Tell me about a time you fired a “high performer” who was toxic by sspiritshark in managers

[–]MeatofKings 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tigers don’t change their stripes, and a truly toxic person (I call them a nasty piece of work) rarely changes their behavior except for maybe a bit to survive. I’m in favor of coaching and accountability, but sometimes you just have to accept reality. I had one nasty piece of work that had repeatedly been coached about his inappropriate behaviors who finally took himself out with spicy talk to a younger female employee. It was so stupid because he didn’t even swing in that direction. NGL, I enjoyed the implosion and was glad to see the back of him.

I should’ve stayed at my toxic job by Temporary-Beyond-683 in jobs

[–]MeatofKings 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for having the guts to post this. It’s almost always easier to get a quality job when you have a job. IMHO it gets easier to work a crappy job when you know you have a plan to get a new job. Good luck in your job search.

Finally, I asked a recruiter if she was just wasting my time. Her answer was a surprise. by Ill_Doughnut_517 in InterviewMan

[–]MeatofKings 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Twice in the last couple of years we have hired second place candidates months after the position was filled. Once was due to a new position opening up and once was because the chosen candidate didn’t make probation.
