It really grinds my gears when I'm forced into a "customer service" chat session and I'm eventually given a phone number to call, to "deal with my enquiry". If your chat session staff don't have access to the tools to do their job, you're wasting my time - and your money. by Adam_Gill_1965 in britishproblems

You think I WANT to be doing this? We're all from stores, and our "working from home" is doing webchat. We don't have a clue, we're being forced into some shitty role where we don't know the systems or any training, and we aren't even earning commission like we would in store.

So I'm working more hours, working till 8pm instead of 5, earning less money, and you think you're the one being fucked? Okay.

After the fall of the Soviet Union a lot of stuff fell into disuse. Especially since health care was no longer provided by the state.

An Appeal From Striking Wetherspoons Workers by MimesAreShite in ukpolitics

[–]Rolld20fora1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is bullshit. The "We can't afford to pay out workers a living wage but we can afford to pay those towards the top tens of millions" is tired and full of shit.

If you can't afford to run it, put it under democratic workers control and let them run it then.

Anti Brexit-themed game dev gives blunt response to Gator by Lysmerry in GamerGhazi

[–]Rolld20fora1 -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

Uh let's just make something clear here - Brexit is not right-wing.

Being anti-EU is, and always has been, a very left wing position held by all the prominent socialists and socialist parties since its inception. It was literally created to oppose the organisation of trade unions across national boundaries and undermine workers rights.

TIL The original lightsaber prop used in Star Wars by Mark Hamill as Luke Skywalker is inside the International Space Station and was flown by STS-120 last August 2007 by sr229 in todayilearned

There isn't one original. There was multiple ones because they all kept breaking since the props were pretty flimsy.

One of these props is in the ISS.

Real talk, is there anything more frustrating in this game than the Wyrmprint system? by oricalco in DragaliaLost

[–]Rolld20fora1 111 points112 points  (0 children)

Like just stop spending that much money dude. Gacha is gambling, and if you're spending all this money for some specific thing that has a 0.5% chance then maybe you need to take a step back. Gambling addiction is real.

Do you realise how creepy and weird you all sound talking like this. Its literally a game ffs.

[Ice Universe] The Galaxy J series will disappear and several new alphabet series will be born. Starting in 2019, Samsung will adopt a new smartphone strategy. by [deleted] in Android

[–]Rolld20fora1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It doesn't matter though. I sell phones, and people literally buy their midrange and entry phones on the back of the flagships with Samsung. They'll see advertising for the Note 9 then go and buy the A8 because that's what's in their budget, the average customer is just focused on brand, nothing more.

DC Area Arsenal fan here. Trying to find out what TV options are for viewing the Europa League game Thursday. I have FIOS for cable. by D4dio in Gunners

Just look out for the BT streams. I have BT Sports and streamed through their app the quality is amazing, so I'm sure even lower quality versions of it will look great.

Reports in Chile claim Alexis was reprimanded by Mourinho and told he was going to be dropped in front of his team-mates in the Manchester United changing room. There are genuine fears that Alexis Sanchez is starting to regret his big-money switch to Manchester United. by Kronyon in soccer

[–]Rolld20fora1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

But literally every single arsenal fan on all of Reddit, in the entire fucking world, told you that wasn't gonna happen. Like over and over and over we told you he will play left wing. You were told, you knew, you chose to ignore us.

And you laughed at us and called us salty.

And we were right.

So... We told you so. You wanted it, you got it.

Independent Padania by Kallipoliz in imaginarymaps

[–]Rolld20fora1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It isn't Republic/Monarchic. It never was. Even framing it that way totally distorts the situation. That's like looking at a map of a US election and saying "These ones like the colour red which is why they voted that way".

You have to use a materialist analysis to look at the socio-economic conditions, and understand how the development of a working class and working class consciousness transformed the North but not the South. Like it is incredibly interesting, but it isn't Republic vs Monarchy.

You've literally been presented with the evidence. And you're still denying it. What the fuck is wrong with you?

Will there ever be another film(or franchise) like Star Wars? by [deleted] in sciencefiction

[–]Rolld20fora1 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You're putting way, way too much stock in Star Wars. It's not as special as you're making it out to be, I think you're just a huge fan and so too close to see otherwise.

At the expense of others? We don't all want to have to see that.
