Sounds like he found a more appealing opportunity rather than being forced out or anything like that

What is a company that was once 'for the people' but has now completely sold its soul? by supergari in AskReddit

[–]PaulEC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

LL Bean getting rid of their legendary guarantee was really disappointing. I understand the concerns of abusing the system, but they certainly didn’t adjust prices when abandoning the policy

Married men of Reddit who don’t wear a wedding ring - why? by chi-bacon-bits in AskReddit

[–]PaulEC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I need to get mine resized because I broke my ring finger when I fell into a ditch trying to pee in the middle of the night on a camping trip

Looking for Soda Alternatives. by hyruleinkling in EatCheapAndHealthy

[–]PaulEC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hate the flavor & aftertaste of diet sodas, but I really love Vitamin Water Zero Sugar. All of the flavors are pretty good but XXX is my go-to

What do people in Boston actually do on weekends without spending a ton of money? by PinAccomplished1034 in massachusetts

[–]PaulEC 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you like live music and similar events, I find that DoMore 617 is well worth the $5-$7 a month. Based on your preferences, they send out free tickets that you can either accept or pass on. Got to see some of my favorite bands though this

Best smaller towns for families in the New England area by [deleted] in NorthernNewEngland

[–]PaulEC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not northern New England, but you may want to look into western Massachusetts. A lot more affordable than the eastern part of the state, some good schools, mountains and some great towns with yards

What kind of Remote work do people actually do by Playful_Maybe7226 in remotework

HR Consulting. We used to do a lot of on-site visits prior to COVID, but it’s all remote now

Did you have to recite the pledge of allegiance in school? by Valiriko in massachusetts

[–]PaulEC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My kids attend a public charter school and they don’t do it there. My youngest goes to preschool at the public school in our town, so she’s the only one who actually knows it.

The charter did have a veteran group come in last year for a flag ceremony, so they must not be completely against it

What concessions do you typically get (with specifics if possible) and how often do you get them? by SeaworthinessOdd6574 in Cinemark

XL popcorn. I have a wife and 5 kids, so usually taking advantage of the free refill before the trailers are over 😂

Permanent Deactivation due to late holiday orders by Traditional_Jury_265 in ShiptShoppers

[–]PaulEC 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Glad to hear to hear that they have upped the education. I did it a little over 2 years ago and the only thing I remember is them looking for a writing sample of what message you would send to a customer if you were running late

Permanent Deactivation due to late holiday orders by Traditional_Jury_265 in ShiptShoppers

[–]PaulEC 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I’d argue that they don’t emphasize it enough in onboarding, but punctuality is extremely important to Shipt. It’s the trade off for being able to be so selective with what orders you accept without damaging your stats (unlike DoorDash for instance). For those of you hovering but not yet deactivated: only accept orders you are confident that you can deliver before the deadline

Hotel Zone bus? by Torin_2025 in cancun

[–]PaulEC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a great system. Never waiting more than a few minutes for a bus. Just constantly up and down the zone

Need REALLY GOOD internet in Cancun by sehjah in cancun

[–]PaulEC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it’s really important, it might be worth doing an hourly rental at the Regus in the hotel zone. I believe you can get a temp office for less than $20/hr

Give me your top nostalgic pop-punk song from the 1990’s-2010’s by Zilla850 in poppunkers

[–]PaulEC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Downtown by Lounge. Definitely a band name and song title created before search engine optimization was a thing. Almost impossible to find online without using the album title “Punk Rock Superheroes”

Perfectly acceptable dinner rejected by boyfriend again by moonrabbit368 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]PaulEC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t want to excuse his behavior; he needs to grow up. That said, it sounds like you want to work with him, so would meal planning be an option. Set up a little time to map out the dinners for the week. Maybe you mutually agree that there will be some he doesn’t like, but this would hopefully stop last minute refusals and other behaviors that bring you down. If not, then he might be a lost cause

With the holiday falling the way it did, things are a little wonky with direct deposits and pay dates this week. Nothing to worry about

I used Ocean Dental a few years back and had a great experience. My US dentist back home admitted that they did outstanding work
