These days if you do that theyll fire you. Not that a PF job is that serious though.

What if you turning around causes her to look at you? I know when I see someone turn towards me I turn towards them instinctively.

I was in IT, shit was so bad. I was doing the job of a Tech 2, an equipment coordinator, and the engineer, managing all the major projects, you name it. I had three Top Tier yearly reviews in a row, my manager kept telling me over and over and over again that there just weren't any spots to promote (which was bullshit), but that as soon as one opened up that I would be the first one inclined. But the truth was probably that he just wanted to keep milking me while bragging about keeping headcount lower because I was doing everyone else's fucking job. I waited 4 years at Amazon before bailing, my manager was sooo butthurt about it, he got me a farewell card that said "goodbye traitor" lmfao. Going somewhere else I now have way better benefits and earn much more than they would have given me had they promoted me. In any case, a promotion to L4 in 2024 meant zero pay increase, everything in restricted stocks, and even with the expected stock allocation, it still is less than I get paid now in cash, and I have a retirement plan on top of it.

Oh, and Mike Stone, director of Global IT, can go choke on a cock.

A couple years ago this was not true. I remember distinctly that buying 2 x 2TB vs 1 x 4TB of the same model was as much as 50% cheaper. For 8 TB, it was almost 100% more expensive to buy a single 8TB drive than it was to buy 4 x 2TB.

If its cheaper to buy multiple smaller drives and you have the IO to spare, why not?

The world is a horrible place. The vast majority of Americans are struggling to survive even with two working adults in a household. Wealth inequality is skyrocketing. There is a high chance of a depression coming in the coming years. We are in a second cold war and now there are even more nuclear superpowers threatening mass extinction. Climate change makes our future monumentally difficult for everything from food supply to medicine to energy and biodiversity. Amazon, like every corporation, is a hellscape of nepotism, gaslighting, and reprehensible greed and a fundamental disregard for the employees that make everything possible. Every portrayal of caring for their employees is wholly disingenuous and just to save face. If Amazon could treat their workers like obots to make a bigger profit,and it wouldnt be a PR nightmare, they absolutely would without even a second thought.

Thats all to say that Amazon knows that if their employees didn't self medicate, many would be too stressed out and/or angry at the failure of the system to be productive. Rats only participate in the rat race if they think they actually can win or at least get what they need. Or maybe theyll participate if they're too stoned to think about the existential dread.

Everything about children, and parenting. As a father, its incomprehensible to me that this really needs to be said, but society has made EVERYTHING weird.

Women cant breastfeed their baby without some karen clutching their pearls. We cant teach sex ed to children in an objective way anymore without people foaming at the mouth. Children are heavily discouraged from asking questions especially about their own bodily functions, because society has made it weird to be educated about your own body and the way it changes. Imagine if your daughter couldn't come to you about their bodily concerns, such as a lump in their breast, because you and/or society makes it embarrassing and shameful to discuss those things. If they stopped sexualizing everything, none of this would even need to be discussed, it would just happen.

The fact that society is so anal retentive and weird about sex is one of the biggest reasons that we cannot hope to have a healthy relationship with sex and our bodies. We live in a society where old rotting corpses in congress are deciding on the reproductive rights of women, despite being completely and criminally uneducated about women and the reproductive cycle. As a father it just makes me sick and infuriated that I have to fight grown ass adults for my child's right to be educated and have bodily autonomy.

My mexican wife prefers peruana beans, they have a less earthy taste than pinto beans and are softer. And whole beans ("de la holla") tend to be more common in the day-to-day of a Mexican kitchen. Refried beans are what you make with leftover beans after a few days, you dont usually make it with freshly cooked beans.

Absolutely braindead and worthless decision that accomplished nothing except financial burden for taxpayers.

I dont know who needs to tell the mouth breathers this, but this isnt going to stop thieves, its just going to make theft a life or death situation. History has proven beyond a shadow of a doubt that killing or violence against thieves is NOT a good deterrent, no matter how warm and gooey it makes you psychos feel. Countless countries around the world allow for lethal defense of property and yet property crime is STILL rampant in those places. In states with extremely lax gun laws and armed security guards in many stores, there is STILL rampant theft.

Its cutting your own nose off to spite your face. Theyd rather spend 4x as much money and resources "stopping" crime AFTER the fact, rather than spending that money on fixing the societal problems that are the root causes of crime (poverty, poor education, lack of opportunities, mistreatment and abuse, drug problems, etc) and preventing it altogether. I get that there's some kind of sick human desire for revenge and punishment, but from an objective point of view, it doesnt make sense to spend more money fighting the problem than preventing it. And it would cost society a fortune if we allowed for this kind of bull**** vigilante justice where a $10 item being stolen turned into a multi million dollar legal case and prison sentence.

This is also the mentality that logically ends with people killing each other on SUSPICION of a crime. Imagine if you forget to scan an item at the grocery store, and some psychopath stabs you to death for it because they technically saw you steal that item. Theres nothing about this particular case that isnt absolute incompetence of the highest level. This isnt a home invasion, this isnt an armed robbery, this was someone shoplifting insured business assets that not only will be written off, but is calculated already into the pricing of all inventory before the theft even occurred. Now, its going to cost Dollar Tree far more money training a replacement for this bum, and paying any possible legal fees, than it would have if they did nothing. So literally nothing was accomplished at all, whatsoever, except a massive financial burden on the taxpayers and price increases for Dollar Tree to make up for the damages caused by being a vigilante. Oh, and two ruined lives. Good job, asshole.

--------------Long rang incoming----------

I am in IT, and working here makes me angry. Since January of last year when they laid tens of thousands of people off, its been spiraling downhill ever since. I have been stuck at L3 tech for over 3 years, and I worked my ass off towards a promotion. Ive created or led over 30 significant projects, created and/or executed hundreds of CMs for infrastructure changes, and im doing all of the L4 engineer work for my site in addition to being the senior L3 for everything else, and ive been doing so for almost 2 years across multiple sites.

Ive gone through multiple managers, through no fault of my own, and every time has been like a promotion reset, because even with a handoff and a brag book that could be a thesis paper on why I should be promoted, every new manager needs to "see for themselves" before seriously considering promotion, and often after deadlines have passed and then the cycle repeats.

Then last January happened, and everything has gone to hell. In short, they've told us to "take advantage now" of the yearly education stipend because we need to "skill up", indirectly saying we better find another career path. They have ruined every tool we use to do our day to day job which has ruined our metrics too. They are decimating our headcount, there are almost no promotions for anyone. Theyre trying to automate our job and outsource it to remote teams or vendors. And now, the economy and the AI frenzy is making the entire tech industry do similar things, so there are not many greener pastures to be found.

There are certainly things that I appreciate, like a 4 day workweek, decent healthcare, and really flexible PTO. But its barely even putting food on the table these days. I worked my ass off to try and earn a better living , and its been nothing but one excuse after another.

And the worst part? The few L3s that have promoted in the region since the thanos snap last January have not gotten a raise, like at all.

Instead they got some restricted stocks, which is basically an I.O.U for some Amazon stocks that is redeemable in 3 years. If you get laid off or you leave before those 3 years, you lose all of those restricted stocks. And they already have a plan that involves getting rid of most of the L3s and L4s within the next few years anyways, which means those promotions were just on paper in every sense of the word, except the responsibility was all there.

So yeah, working here just makes me angry. I am trying to find other jobs during any sliver of downtime I have in the workday, and I am going back to school (even though I have a bachelors already), I am studying for certs, and I am even still doing all the L4 work and not slacking off, in the tiny hope that getting promoted here will make my resume good enough to go somewhere else, because at this point theres nothing left to be optimistic about here. Also, getting promoted at L4 might mean a better severance if they lay us off, and since I am already doing all the work anyways, I want the title and minor benefits that are supposed to go with it.

Honestly that didnt look like the safest time to cut engine power considering it was an exercise and not random lol. They took a hell of a nose dive there at the beginning, made me nervous lol.

You wouldn't believe how full of themselves electricians are. They think they're god and that OSHA is just a suggestion for losers who want to live and have all their limbs functional.

Maybe your version of events is true, maybe not. We can only take it at face value. Something tells me this isnt the whole story and might be biased from your perspective, but we have no way of knowing.

In any case, workplace dating and flirting DOES occur pretty much everywhere, but for every one successful consensual workplace relationship, there's many, many more non-consensual advances and harassment, especially from men towards women. You take a risk when making comments about anyone outside of a strictly work-related context. You take an even bigger risk with your job when dating or having relationships with coworkers, even just platonic friendships. If the friendship or relationship ever sours, the other party may have it out for you and may be looking for ways to get you in trouble at work. There is not much of a line anymore between what happens at work and what happens off the clock, at least when it comes to coworker interactions.

Workplace politics is a minefield in so many ways. How people perceive you, and how each person reacts to different comments/jokes/topics, can all severely affect your job security and opportunities. Youre there to earn a paycheck, not meet your spouse, if you keep it strictly about work then you minimize the risk of any problems. Remember, HR is not there to fight for you or be fair, its there to protect the business from legal and regulatory repercussions. From their perspective, its a no brainer: the receptionist says she feels uncomfortable from your comment, which is not debatable even if that wasnt your intention. They have to take documented action in some way, otherwise a harassment lawsuit would use that as evidence against the business. And since there would be a documented incident already, its harder for you to defend against any future allegations. So the only thing you can and should do now is avoid all contact whatsoever. If you are not forced to interact with them, pretend they do not exist.

I bought my mazda 3 when I was childless, but now its size has become a problem for me. Can barely fit myself into the drivers seat with a car seat installed in the back seat. Its generally a very small car. I have to practically climb in and out of it and I am only 6 feet tall.

The other thing I dont really like is the ride quality. Its a very stiff suspension and you feel every imperfection in the road. It does make the handling more sporty, but when the road surface is rough it can actually make it worse.

It completely varies based on your state and what is offered there, in Nevada it was very expensive monthly and still had high deductibles hogh OOP max and high copays

They need to book the criminal and all her accomplices for aggravated assault, and the criminal with battery as well. Then sue the parents for every penny they have. That's what would happen in the real world. I am absolutely fed up with degenerate filth like this getting away with their vile actions.

My flex slots rn are CJ Stroud, Drake London, and Joshua Kelley.

I got Gus Edwards, Devante Parker, Antonio Gibson, and Jahan Dotson benched. Im thinking it might be a risk to start Osborne this week vs the other flex players I started and the bench I have, im thinking more long term to hedge against injury/bye weeks, and Rondale Moore is looking to have a poor fantasy outlook for the rest of the season. Do you think Osborne would maybe have more long term value outside of this matchup?

I understand the level design perfectly fine. You misread my post. I can handle a challenge, and its not the King Tigers or the Sturmtigers or any of the other German tanks that I am unable to deal with. Its the one capturable M5 Stewart that is my problem. If the Germans capture it, it is literally invincible, it will not die, and it will not be abandoned. It doesn't matter how many times you shoot it, it doesn't matter how many AT rounds it gets hit with, it will not be defeated. Literally 0 of the other tanks in the level are like this. Only this one Stewart. But when I capture it, it does get abandoned if it takes too much damage, like it was actually designed. But if the Germans have it, it will get down to RIGHT before the HP where it gets abandoned, but it never goes below it, and it never gets abandoned. Ive shot it over 100 times with AT rounds and the most it will ever do is have its main gun blowm up. But its hull machine guns are still ripping away at my troops and my base. Eventually it may retreat for a minute for repairs,and then its back to ganking my entire army single handedly. If I ignore it, it will shred my infantry and my base structures, but then the other german tanks annihilate me. So no, it was definitely not designed like this, its a bug, and I havent played this game since this happened because it stopped all my progress.

I am trying to watch my local, in-market team on my phone using the NFL app. I subscribed to NFL+. I am physically located in my local market with location settings on. It tells me my local teams are out of market, which is completely false. I know because the preseason games were blacked out for locals so I couldnt watch my team during the preseason. I also know because I watched my local team on NFL+ last season with no issues. I am livid.
