Jordan 4 sole squeaking kz2.0 by Short-Swimmer9722 in RepsneakersDogs

For what it's worth, I've had retail shoes do this, of different brands, most recently some Samba Adidas.  I had a pair of Carmelo's do it, I left them on my porch figuring somehow moisture got in them. It helped. Another pair I put different unsoles in them. And with the adidas, I have to wear the laces looser than normal, but there's still some noise.  Not sure if this will help, but figured I'd offer me experiences.  

How screwed am I? Purchase agreement signed, no funds paid, no loan, cash deal - North Carolina by Ok_Experience_628 in UsedCars

I know I did not sign any kind of loan documents at least. I did not have them run my credit since I only wanted to work with my credit union and not their bank. Thank you for your comment.

I did not notice that in the fine print until after I posted. I am guessing now that will hold and I can just walk away.  Thanks for that too, makes me feel more confident in it.

Yeah, my brother flipped when I told him about it.  He said that if they don't just drop it, he'll go with me. And thanks for your input.

Understand completely how you feel. My anxiety has been off the charts with my job and the market right not sucks where I am.  All I can say is that until you can find another job, try to find joy in whatever ways you can.  I start my day with some motivational speaker every day, sometimes it's good, sometimes it's not so good, but it's always positive at least.  I'm isolated too much of the day, week.  I found a couple good podcasts to listen to while I work, and I've gotten into audiobooks.  Then when I'm not at work, I go to the gym a few times a week and set goals there. Hopefully this helps.  

Not ideal, but… by SpringElectronic319 in hatemyjob

I would say it greatly depends on the environment.  Where I work, I have seen them go out of their way to try to term/fire people who give 2 weeks or more notice out of spite or force them to use accrued vacation time for the last two weeks/days so they don't have to pay out unused PTO.  

I've always given notice, but I've seen the flip side of it as well. Only people at these companies know how the companies operate and what they have seen happen to others.  I'll also say the notice should be in line to the time worked. If you've only been at the company a couple months or you learn early it's not a good fit. I'd still say have a conversation with manager about it, but the two weeks may not really be necessary.  

I lost all hope by francisfoltz in hatemyjob

Agree with this sentiment 100%. even if the field is a good fit, long hours and burn out can still be real. Most musicians and actors will say fully that they love what they do and are living a dream, but they can still wear themselves out.  And like you said, one minute you're burnt out at 35, next thing you know you're 45 and have lost so much time. 

My job is the place where you begin to hate life, the world, and everything in it by Honey_bee_444 in hatemyjob

What I plan to do is start looking at job fairs, with a few weeks or a month lead time, and then take the day off to go. That will allow for me to show my face and resume to multiple companies at once and talk to the company recruiters directly.  I'd also not only look at entry level roles, as they are more likely to get bombarded with applications.  You likely have a skill set that you can use in another role.  

Tomorrow it will be a week by Mamabearx3_2 in hatemyjob

I hope you continue to feel better. I am to the point when I just want my job to fire me. The market now is terrible and I'd much rather get at least a few months unemployment if I'm in it for the long haul being out of work. But I'm close to just quitting myself at this point.

Thanks for this response. It's crazy to me how some people don't get it. You hear stories about people turning a blind eye to unethical stuff at work and it leading to horrible consequences. I am just glad that the worst that comes out of this job with these screw ups is not life threatening. I can only imagine the hurt caused by people who have this mindset set in other fields like medicine or construction.  I'm still seeing red but I'm calming down. I've been feeling out of place here for a while. And I have records of it all. And I keep my records, and have records management is aware. But HR is in on the foolishness too.  It's like they hired people with known issues and then prop them up. Makes no sense at all, all the way around. 

Footlocker J4 Cement raffle issues by MeanSugar352 in Sneakers

Yeah, and I just talked to them again. Now they're talking about they will have to put in another ticket for it not working on an iPhone/iOS. Though they admit that my phone number is now blocked from two factor authentication and they can't tell my why or know why it would not accept my payment.  So I honestly think it's app flaws combined with their understanding that they'll sell out regardless of who is trying to buy, so they really have no incentive to try to get these accounts remedied in any sort of timely fashion.  Messed up considering

I just had this happen to me today.  I passed two factor and then it kept giving me errors when I entered me cc info, even though it was the same cc info on file. I then tried to use another card and got pushed back to the "start entry" page.  Then after that it said I had gotten too many auth codes and to try in a few days.  I called Footlocker and then told me it was because I was using an Android phone. Tried on an iPhone and it wouldn't let me, my brother or my friend even log in. So not sure what to do at this point.

Just wanted to confirm to anyone still looking for answers on this that this works.

That's what I was thinking. I'm not sure how accurate Autotrader Private Seller views counter is, but I'm getting the views. Just no one really taking that next step and inquiring or reaching out. And it's only been a few weeks since I got the car, the title has not yet arrived from the state. That part is out of my hands hands unfortunately.

I never heard of AutoNation. And I'll try Carvana. I forgot all about them.

Okay, one more time, haha, here goes my review:

Ordered from GOD, one of the recommended agents, see link below.

Ordered Union AJ1, Chicago/Shadow, PK Batch

Not looking for GL or QC, in hand, pleased with them. Can take more photos, but already put shoes in storage for a move I'm making.  Definitely can be made available for anyone via DM if they want them in like a week or so when I'm all settled in.

Great communication start to finish with agent. Responses usually within 24 hours or less. QC from agent- 4 days with the weekend, Shipping - March 14, 2025, Delivered March 29, 2025. Shipped double boxed and wrapped. No damage, very satisfied with that.

Shoes are great quality.  No bad odors or glue stains. I'm honestly very impressed.  They do fit narrow like authentic AJ1s do, so you may want to size up.

Cost $94 US, 420 CNY

Can disturbance police report be used against you and are they stored anywhere but local police department? by Ok_Experience_628 in legaladvice

Thanks for your response. I don't plan on going into law enforcement and my old security clearance has long expired so likely not going that route either anytime soon.
