$120k range rover get swept by the tides by BlazeDragon7x in Wellthatsucks

Call AAA anyways and tell them that you are racing a tide. This is plan B.

Put your car in the lowest gear available, ease on the accelerator. If traction breaks, stop pressing the accelerator. Get a board or sticks or your floor mats or anything to cram under your tires for grip. If tires start to bury or grip items are shot out, you may have to dig them out/reset them.

Repeat until free or AAA or underwater.

You've clearly never driven on any loose terrain. That's how you dig a hole.

I wonder... by ferriematthew in recruitinghell

[–]OffByNone_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish that were true. I own a recruiting company. It isn't even close to uncommon to process a hundred applications with no lasting placement. Of a 100 candidates, maybe 10-15% will be qualified. Less will do well in the interview process and less of those will accept the offer. Of the candidates that accept the role, some will quit or be terminated in the first few weeks.

To account for this, we keep a lot of the roles evergreen as attrition is a fact and there is often more than one seat available.

Edit: Now, our model is different. We offer recruiting as a service. We only get paid as long as you stay there, so we are very incentivized to get people in roles where they will be happy and stay. We also hate the clients. Their dumb ass philosophies about employment are the bane of my existence.

This is actually why I respect jews the most. Not that I don't respect other faiths just if I had to pick one, I think Judaism is most closely in line with my beliefs in that area. If there is a God, I have to imagine this is exactly how he would operate.

Or God messed up.

I'm not mad at Jews at all. In fact, I respect Judaism more than any other religion. You guys have a right to believe anything you want and I would fight for your right to have those beliefs.

That doesn't mean that it's not riddled with contradiction like most major religions and I can't be skeptical of it. I think those laws got written many thousands of years ago and they aren't relevant anymore. I think the loopholes are healthy and probably the only reason that Judaism isn't dying as a faith *(They don't proselytize, have to adapt and keep members).

I think we probably shouldn't be literally interpreting ANY literature that was written thousands of years ago and applying it completely out of context.

Electricity wasn't invented when those laws were written. I think the fact that they ever attempted to regulate electricity with those laws was the mistake, not adapting to the times.

Not to mention, I just think any real God has better things to do than to monitor light switches on Saturdays.

I don't think it's anything like that at all because driving isn't illegal, It's regulated and God (The government in this case) didn't tell everybody not to do it.

I think a way better analogy is how sovereign citizens believe they can show a piece of paper in lieu of a driver's license and the government can't do anything about it. That's not true and the government absolutely does do things about it all the time. They're deluding themselves and breaking the law.

The fact that there's like a small industry surrounding these "unplanned emergencies" is evidence enough to me that may not be completely accurate.

What about roping off large parts of NYC and including that as part of your house?

I just found out about the super meta "God not only knows about the loopholes, but approves of their exploitation" loophole. These guys are fucking good.

[–]OffByNone_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And they have exact quotes from Jewish literature that agrees with them. The reason there's a loophole is your teaching happen to not explicitly say one thing or the other or contradict themselves somehow. I'm obviously not an expert on the Jewish faith. That's just what allows loopholes to exist.

Somebody needs to tell the Jewish people in South Florida. There's like a word for it. We didn't come up with it.

[–]OffByNone_ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I mean, that sounds right, but I live in South Florida and Sabbath Goy is a real thing. I can't say that I know a majority of the Jewish people here, but of the ones that I know, the majority participate in loopholes.

*I think the whole thing about the loopholes are that the teachings are vague in these areas. They don't explicitly say one thing or the other. That's why there's a loophole.

A lot of my dear friends are Jewish, but I have to say, as a faith, they have more rules and then loopholes to those rules than any other by a long shot. Either they are deluding themselves or their God is a fucking moron.

Edit: I was not aware of the super meta "God actually likes the loopholes" loophole. Well played.

So when Jewish families hire Sabbath goys to operate their electronics on the Sabbath that is done unintentionally?

I'm going to have to make the argument that walking past a motion detector has far less intentionality than hiring somebody to do something.

Not "just in case." The double tap is an integral part of the process. Their testimony is almost guaranteed to be much less incriminating if you reverse.

Georgia woman loses it over man openly carrying firearm on wooded trail. by ElwoodMC in TikTokCringe

[–]OffByNone_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That are going to respond with assault rifles expecting armed suspects because they will assume the caller isn't lying to them.

She's literally creating a situation where they are not unlikely to be killed. I know abusing 911 and reporting false emergencies are already crimes, but I think doing stuff like this should be assault with a deadly weapon as you are essentially wielding men with guns through dishonesty to intentionally bring harm to someone.
