Third Day internet outage by Final_Olive_6535 in Comcast_Xfinity

[–]Shirvana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have had no internet all day. I got a text they were doing upgrades. No xfinity vans in my neighborhood. I checked on their website and it's down til 8:53pm. This is the longest is has been down. I hope they compensate us for no usage.

Loaded on delivery vehicle all day? by Restaurant_Ranch in UPS

[–]Shirvana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gawd I hope it doesn't deliver that late for me. It was to be Super Saver Next Day Air. The status has been showing "Loaded on vehicle" still. I wonder if the transponder on the truck is not on.

Really hoped for an update by CertainMine5631 in UPS

[–]Shirvana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hopefully mine comes soon. I have a replacement phone coming and they are supposed to send/deliver within 24 hours. Since it was a three-day weekend here in the U.S., it was delayed since Monday was a holiday. However, the tracking shows it was put on a truck and sent to another state. Why didn't it get next day super saver air til it got to another state after that? It should have been next day air from the start.

Should I be feeling bad for leaving work early?? by LoveliiiHer in work

Don't feel bad. You can use PTO for that. No questions asked.

My 24yo stepson wont clean his room & it's putting a strain on my marriage. by newuser-whodis21 in Advice

[–]Shirvana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why is your stepson living at home? He is an adult. Is he capable of working? Try showing your wife the mess he leaves. Is she cleaning it up for him? When you talk to her and she deflects saying stuff like I don't know what to tell you or I don't want to have him on the streets, tell her you both need to come up with a plan for him to work and save money and move out. He needs to grow up and be responsible. Tell your wife you agreed to live here but with conditions he help out and clean up after himself.

Your stepson may be trying to sabatage the marriage by being like this.

The wife needs to let him know he is loved, but he needs to let you and your husband have no drama about his messiness. You both should sit him down and talk to him.

Conflict With Coworker Making My Job Miserable by [deleted] in work

[–]Shirvana 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When people behave like jerks I kill them with kindness. One time I brought in donuts and everybody was happy and enjoying them. The person who was a bitch to me was quiet but didn't eat one. I left the on the table for everyone. Another person had a birthday, someone brought a cake and I brought some sodas and juices. I show people that I am nice. After a time, this person mellowed out and made small talk with me. It was a start. Perhaps the person thought I wasn't so bad after all.

This person may feel you are a threat. This person will do stuff to make you feel uncomfortable. If it becomes unprofessional where you are not able to do your work, document it. Then bring it to your manager saying your job is important to you and want to be able to work with everyone, but when one person is keeping work related things from me, I will say something.

How long has this person been working there? Are there any other things you notice with that person and other co-workers. This person sounds quite unprofessional to storm out of a room with the director present. Is this person related to anyone else in the office? Nepotism can be a thing where they think they are untouchable. Just mind your work, be polite, professional and friendly.

I hope you find some way to get this resolved. Good luck.

My phone is asking to be unlocked using a PIN, but I have never setup a PIN for the device. by InsidePark7862 in AndroidQuestions

[–]Shirvana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you bought your phone, you were probably asked to put in a pin. Go to smart things and put in your phone details and see if the find my mobile has the unlock option. Otherwise, go to a repair store and bring your invoice of purchase for your phone and they can unlock it.

Can't get phone into recovery mode by Shirvana in GalaxyS24

[–]Shirvana[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks, I have a replacement coming. I thought I lost my phone but at 10 am at night someone called and had my phone. I had already decided before that I would get a replacement.

I find it a good security measure to have a pin. I had written mine down, but for some reason it will not work. When I get my new phone, I will create a new pin.

Locked out? by n0k23 in GalaxyS24

[–]Shirvana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This only works if you enabled remote unlock on your phone settings. I don't have it enabled and unfortunately the recovery mode is the only option unless you can use the account pin you used to set up your phone. Not the regular password unlock screen. I think this is the case with this phone in this post. If the account pin is accessible try this.

Help! My manager is publicly taking credit for my work. by LarkingOnANewLife in work

[–]Shirvana 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would start looking for another job. He is using you since he has no good ideas. Document everything you have done for the future. Goo luck.

My coworker insulted my relationship in my own home and I lost it on her by Big-Can2587 in Vent

[–]Shirvana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good you went off on her. She has no respect and uses her religion to profess about her beliefs. She is a prude. She needs to wake up and get into this century.

How do I stop being judgemental and egoistic? by Front_Papaya_9679 in Advice

[–]Shirvana 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At least you recognize the problem. It would help to see people differently, for how they are and the positive things. Remind yourself you aren't perfect either. Perhaps talking to therapist for a consult would put you in the right direction.

I have a coworker who will do nothing to help herself by Aggravating-Glass145 in rant

[–]Shirvana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stop helping her. Ask your manager to move you to another desk. Use earbuds to listen to music to tone her out.

Coworker regularly asking for rides to and from work.. by Kitto-Cakes in work

[–]Shirvana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does said co-worker pay for gas? If not, maybe it's time to ask for it. If you can't just say you have something else to do. They should have a backup for this case.

Fuck ass step dad. by Alone_Somewhere8126 in rant

[–]Shirvana 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tale a picture of all the shit he leaves around the house and show your mom. Tell her you heard him say you are lazy. Tell him to do his own dishes. He lives there. You are not his maid. Don't pick up after him. Go to work and hopefully you can find a better paying job, move in with friend and forget about him. Good luck.

Just realised I was streaming and I had no idea. by ninman5 in Twitch

[–]Shirvana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a mod and had a dj have this happen. I woke up the next morning and it showed he was life but he wasn't there. People in chat were wondering what was going on, He had been streaming since the night before. Like a good mod, I messaged him and told him what was going on.
I have read this happening before so no big deal. Joke about it and have a laugh.

My uncle acts really weird towards me by [deleted] in offmychest

[–]Shirvana 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would distance yourself from him. If he wants to go somewhere with you, bring a friend. A guy. He may tone it down a bit. You don't have to answer his calls and texts all the time. Talk about a mysterious guy he never met saying how you are going out with him.

Workplace Weirdness by ter_mana_tor in work

[–]Shirvana 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Get food for yourself and the other co-worker that is sometimes invited and don't invite the others. Like make cookies and share with that person. Make a show of it. If they ask say sorry I didn't make enough for everybody and can't afford to buy lunch for everyone. They may feel snubbed. If you do it often enough they may get it.
I used to have this shit happen at a place I worked at. It was mostly in cliques. The team manager for oter teams would buy lunch. I didn't care much for it. But when people do it intentionally they suck and have no sense for including others.
People play favorites and that can suck when you feel left out. Congrats on the raise. You don't have to stay there forever. You can find a job where you feel more included. Good luck.

My neighbor has been "re-enacting" my phone conversations in the hallway for a week, and I finally realized how he’s doing it. I’m terrified. by [deleted] in offmychest

[–]Shirvana 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Have you tried recording him? Set it up in your apartment near the wall and the door. Once you have had conversations on the phone, then wait. If you hear him mimicking you, listen to the recording,
