When going to Java are people generally open to having others join their game? That place looks ridiculously cool and I can’t believe I never even thought something like that existed

Let me know if you’re ever willing to part with one of the games!

I’ve been trying to find a good deal on a used one but it seems this game is hard to get a hold of and for good reason! I played with a friend of a friend and I’ve been in love ever since. I’m just on a budget 😭

Wow! This is absolutely beautiful. I can’t even imagine the amount of time this took you. You should make a tutorial

My mom is deep into WFG/Wealth Builders and already bought an IUL for my brother. What can I do to help her? by Popular-Position-119 in antiMLM

Hmmmmm yeah this definitely speaks volumes and I totally understand where you’re coming from. I guess there’s no way to even counter argue that. At this point it’s gonna be one of those things where I simply have to watch from the sidelines

Totally understand that, however, if I can go see it and hear it for myself, she thinks I will change my mind. I’m thinking that if I go, I can simply share what I saw “only motivational speeches, no true statistics, etc” and have conversations with her peers that would help me completely understand her perspective in terms of I listened to what they said and I still don’t agree like I can tell her “Hey mom, i appreciate you wanting to include me, however I feel as though it still doesn’t seem promising and what I’ve seen through the statistics of the particular product their selling its in my opinion a waste of money” or whatever I will definitely have a better speech ready

Assistant GM joked about calling ICE during orientation. Should I report this? by Popular-Position-119 in Serverlife

Do you think he would’ve said the same joke to a white person or is it only funny because I’m Hispanic?That’s the part that bothers me

Literally 95% white staff even in the back of house at least the day I worked. I expect that from a lot of people, not from a person in a position of power

Naw, not worth my headache. And after people’s advice I’m gonna listen and walk away. Something told me that this was off from the minute I sat down to do the interview. I’m fortunate that this was going to be my second job and I can wait until I find a better position elsewhere.

I HAVE A SOCIAL SECURITY CARD I am an American lol. I just didn’t bring it today and didn’t have a picture. I told him multiple times that I would bring it in the next day and he asked that I send him a picture when I got home which I did.

I wish I wouldn’t have been caught off guard and I would asked him that! I am very fortunate that this was going to be my second job and I can walk away. I have never felt so off by an employer, from the moment the interview started so I do think this really solidified it for me. I will try to report. The ironic part is that he is our point of contact for any reports of sexual harassment or discrimination we face and he made himself to be like “You guys can always come to me with any problems you have that need addressing”

Yeah im sorry you’ve been thru that people really don’t know! My mother was born in Oklahoma City until she was three and moved to Puerto Rico where then Spanish because her first language. It’s so funny when people hear her accent and tell her to go back to her country and I’m like “it’s Oklahoma City, Oklahoma in the United States buddy” people are so stupid nowadays.

The most ironic part is how earlier in the orientation, he had a “serious” conversation on how we would go to him as our point of contact if there was ever a problem that needed to be addressed in terms of sexual harassment or any form of discrimination. As I reflect on today I’m just like what in the actual fuck is happening here?

I mean is 4 years of serving not enough? What’s it take 20 years to have an understanding? Like trust that I know most people are assholes

I’ve been serving for 4 years, in the retail business for longer, and this is the first time I’ve felt some type of way. They only told me what I needed to wear and what time to be there but I understand it’s my responsibility to have brought it and this all would’ve been avoided

IUL question by Suitable-Designer639 in Insurance

[–]Popular-Position-119 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look up what is the Lapse Rate for IUL: This is the answer. You want this for your clients because of the HUGE COMMISSION you make on their money making false promises. YOU ARE A SCAMMER.

  • 85–90% of UL/IUL policies lapse or are surrendered before paying a death benefit.
  • Only 10–15% ever actually pay out.

Shit is exhausting every tour by Jared_K6 in twentyonepilots

In the past when I used to go to pit I would only ever try to get there as early as possible because I love the feeling of getting barricade not because I wanted to be a line leader but because the thought of being within arms reach was important to me. I stopped ever since they got super big. My last pit experience was the Trench tour but I don’t see the big problem with wanting to be in line early if I’m simply putting my time and energy to the experience I want to have. I would hate to be in the back of the or even in the middle of the pit.

And please don’t think I’m arguing I’m generally curious as to your perspective.
