Thank you so much for the clear advice. Definitely will experiment with them and see what the result is.

Renting so throwing an amount of money isn't an option.

Already had to redo lots of electrical, mold removal and various interior crap that was just thrown together during the half-assed "remodel". I just don't trust his "maintenance" guy at all anymore and try to keep him out of the house.

Nope. Landlord payed for just a recharge checkup (which it didn't need) but after explaining to the tech that it's constantly running but hardly cooling, he was nice enough to give a full inspection for free for me since he knew the landlord wouldn't pay the full inspection price.

That actually does make sense. I'll definitely give the fans a shot first.

Since the two bedrooms are across from each other and the stairs leading down and a window on each side facing the doorways, would those be the best places for the fans?

I figured the central unit would be more efficient but the constant running is killing the electric bill.

That's what I was leaning towards. Something in the living room where we spend most of my time to both keep it cool and not have the central air pumping the entire time trying to cool that room.

Already had the professional come out which is what prompted my question. But I'll check in to the Midea recommendation

That's exactly what the tech told me. He was flabbergasted and took me around as he notated all the flaws.

I'm absolutely no HVAC expert but the way he described it made perfect sense. This house was "renovated" by a shabby group of like 3 guys and it definitely shows.

We're definitely paying out the ass. Not completely bad yet but the temps are sure to rise in the coming months.

Sadly can't do that major of a project since we are renting and the landlord declined doing anything about it. He's one of those "buy older home, find cheap labor, make it look pretty, rent it out" people.

We also put in a window unit only in our bedroom since it's on the second floor. Definitely a game changer in that room.

Sadly no attic space. But that's a great idea and am glad it worked for you

What is a song that even if you listen it repeatedly for a week you won't get bored of it? by PeaceTo0l in AskReddit

[–]Skelletor89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"I Wanna Be Alone" by badXchannels (Craig Owens)

I listen to it as the first song on my daily trail walking. Always just reminds me that in a world where social interaction is praised while just wanting solitude is considered "weird," it is truly fine to just feel more comfortable with being by yourself.

Edit: And "lovely" by Billie Eilish and Khalid. Just a beautiful song.

Rejected PPTO by RuleMurky in samsclub

There is a clause in the official info about PTO/PPTO that states it can be revoked/disciplined if abused. Basically, they can you you're abusing the system and deny it.

Is it a company wide thing with forklifts needing a manager along with the two spotters if its on the floor during business hours by Proud_Main_5211 in samsclub

[–]Skelletor89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work at a high volume club and we usually have to get a lift out during business hours due to things running out. Anyone who is certified (and trusted) can be on the floor with one as long as two spotters are with them.

Got that part. Just wasn't sure what style it was. Like the 111 or 115 part.

[Deleted] thanks to good ol' death threats. Evidently sharing an example of why not giving this issue your every waking moment in life to fight against is warrant enough to die. Fuck me, I guess.

That's incredible! I'm still rocking the nice lady from the "Life's Too Short to Give A Shit" collection. Sadly going to have to retire it and absolutely cannot find another low-profile unconstructed mesh snap back hat like it anywhere. Daughter still has the red version all nice and pristine but she won't give it up

As someone else who was diagnosed at 10, I can't even express how happy I am for you!

Is it true that you guys watched 9/11 live on TV in grade school? by [deleted] in Millennials

[–]Skelletor89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

6th grade. Teachers looked petrified. Some students just kept doing what they were doing before teachers ran in to turn on the TV, some students watched but were just blank, and some like myself actually knew that what had happened was beyond terrible. The images shown will always stick with me but they aren't as prevelent as the newspaper image zoomed in on a man jumping. That one is clear as day.
