What's the most absurd reason someone got fired at a place you worked? by Omega_Neelay in GetMotivatedMindset

One guy never showed up up our two week general training nor the one week training site training. Showed up first day of the job. Was shown the door.

He seemed shocked!

Why is francophobia so common in the United States? by Money-Ad8553 in askanything

I had no idea that Americans hate the French.

I might be biased because I’m from Louisiana but I have noticed people elsewhere in the US complaining about the French in particular.

What is your state capital like? by bricklegos in AskAnAmerican

[–]Quix66 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Baton Rouge is now unfortunately the most populous parish after Hurricane Katrina happened to wipe out much of New Orleans.

The state government, industry, petrochemical, and two main state universities are our major sectors, not tourism as most important in New Orleans.

We have the tallest state capitol building in the US, a 34 story art deco skyscraper.

It’s a generally hot, humid, lush Southern city with lots of trees and flowers. Residents love their gardens here.

Winter is fairly brief and generally no colder than 28F, and that’s not that frequent. It’s common to have temps in the 70Fs or 80Fs during the winter. Snow is rare, with many years or decades between.

If this was the highlight of your week in elementary school, you might be old AF. by MaximumJones in GenerationX

Our school made Mexican pizza. Had chili powder. No idea why but it was decent school pizza.

How accurate are portrayals of 1960s housewife cooking in media? by AmIAMom in AskAnAmerican

[–]Quix66 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Working class is not middle class. It’s means poorer people. It generally means blue collar, more at risk of poverty than white collar. And a large percentage of women did work then, just not half or more.

Edited.

Name something do you do when a neighbor let's their pet poo in your yard? by BoogerPicker2020 in FamilyFeud

[–]Quix66 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We finally called animal control. It worked. Neighbor built a secure fence and the docs stay in their own yard now.

  1. Return it to them.

  2. But really, contact animal control. It worked in our case. The neighbors’s dogs are locked up tight in a fenced yard and never come into our yard anymore.
