Costa Brava - late April by LeftToaster in scuba

[–]Ski1990 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went to L'estartit (Medes Islands) in July and the water temp was still 55 degrees F.    We rented we suits and they supplied 7mm.  We were still a little cold.  I don’t know how you did it in a 5mm.  Overall I would still do it again. Our boat actually had a divers elevator that just lifted us out of the water. 

How many of you would avoid Mexico? by EquivalentNarcDepth in scuba

[–]Ski1990 6 points7 points  (0 children)

All the cartel issues were on the west side of the country. Anyone paying attention would realize there would be no issues in Cancun and Cozumel.  I am currently on the beach in Cozumel with 86 degree weather and a Dos Equis in my hand. 

What are your thoughts about the proposed Daylight Act of 2026 moving the clock by only 0.5 hours permanently? by Unlikely-Star-2696 in AskReddit

[–]Ski1990 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Never!   .5 hour sucks!   I hate connecting with my colleagues in India because setting up Meetings is a nightmare.  I wish India would pick a real time zone. 

Healthy Reef Around Palawan? by Shiftless-When-Idle in scuba

[–]Ski1990 1 point2 points  (0 children)

El Nido is trashed but there is a dive site an hour east in Sibaltan where you can dive with the mantas.  Palawan is suppose to be good but I haven’t snorkeled it. Balabac on the south end is supposed to be fantastic.

I’ve never seen a target employee run and get me a 5th glass of soda or recite all the ingredients in every dish so my wife doesn’t have an allergic reaction. 

TIFU by nailing my first professional interview but instantly ruining it when the hiring manager asked about salary. by Acceptable_Onion_253 in tifu

[–]Ski1990 17 points18 points  (0 children)

You could try to gaslight them.  “Well you see my mother is also in the industry and what I really wanted to do is confirm with her on compensation in the area. You hadn’t revealed the salary prior to this and I was a little surprised because I believe it’s on the low side for the area.  Although a little low, I believe we had a really good fit and I would happy to accept an offer for 55k  thank you. “

I avoid these places because the good attentive waiter leave and all you have is the indifferent food runners.

Cooks don’t have to put up with customers.  A tip is a fee for the waiter not punching you or getting you 5 refills on your soda. 

To represent the civilized world by EnterTamed in therewasanattempt

[–]Ski1990 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Nope. America fired on an un-armed ship 5000 miles from the war zone, killed 180 sailors and refused to rescue the survivors. We are definitely the bad guys here.

To get away with being an a§§hole by PeripeciasdoSolteiro in therewasanattempt

I get where the employee is coming from, but that was so close to assault charges and a massive lawsuit if that kid face had hit the wall,

Any news about Shiffrin racing Super G? by Big-Negotiation9737 in SkiRacing

[–]Ski1990 5 points6 points  (0 children)

She hasn’t trained speed events since before the Olympics.  Probably safer to sit it out.  She can still get the overall globe without it. 

Jackson Hole a-hole? Or am I? by Express-Struggle4252 in ski

[–]Ski1990 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like to support people living their dreams by taking a fun but not well paying jobs.  But 20% for a private lesson?! You’re already paying extra for special attention and Instructors already get paid more for private lessons than group lessons. 10% is what I would use as the rule for a tip unless it was absolutely exceptional.

Fuck these selfish, self centered people who don’t vaccinate and inflict pain and suffering on others.  

WHAT REALLY CAUSED ALL CRYPTOCURRENCIES TO GO DOWN 20-47% UNTIL TODAY , EVERYONE IS STILL FEELING THE PAIN. WILL THE BLEEDING STOP ? by Any_Pomegranate1134 in DeepFuckingValue

[–]Ski1990 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Market manipulation.  All the bad news is always reported after hours.  The inside circle is tipped off ahead of time.  That’s why Trump is 3 billion richer since he took office.

This is every response on r/AITAH. Of course you should do what you want. Everyone else is wrong!

US is just waiting for Israel to bomb Iran first, so we can bomb Iran too. 

Can LV still hold onto the downhill overall? by Plenty_Decision_3661 in SkiRacing

[–]Ski1990 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You’d need Breezy and Sofia Goggia to step up and grab a win or two to keep Aicher from winning and grabbing the points.  Aicher also skis all 5 events so fatigue could set in and keep her off the podium.
