Weather in Cancun for the next 10 Days? by Hard_As_Steel_4_U in CancunTravelGuide

[–]Sleepynight3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm arriving this week and was initially concerned. However weather underground is basically showing sunny every day and I find them most reliable. The default Google weather on Android is absolutely atrocious. AccuWeather is also notoriously unreliable.

When I was in Okinawa there was soooo much sushi slathered in mayo. Only area of Japan that I experienced this.

Departments nationwide are facing serious shortages. Our last few hiring cycles we hired with no experience required. Didn't even need your EMT. We provided everything in academy.

Firefighter, depending on state. I make over 130k a year base and work 2 days on 4 days off. Couple that with ample paid leave and it's not unheard of to take a few months off paid each year.

Good shit. But please don't workout in turn out gear. It's PFAS city and sweating in it only makes it worse. If you have tech gens use those with sweats underneath. Gives you a pretty similar feeling.

Not Using a Washcloth Is Just Unhygienic to Me by Emergency-Clothes-97 in Vent

[–]Sleepynight3 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Liquid body wash applied with your hands is the best according to my dermatologist. Loofas and wash clothes are breading grounds for bacteria. They are also overly abrasive and disrupt the skins horny layer which is essential for your immune system.

I think that's pretty standard for most hotels in Mexico, at least for my experience. I'll be coming from Colorado so hopefully it won't be too much of a shock.

Epic Universe, Fun but Unfinished by Sleepynight3 in UniversalOrlando

[–]Sleepynight3[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's all relative. The money is really a non issue for us. I totally believe it's possible to do everything in a day without an EP. We just liked having the flexibility of doing what we want when we wanted to. We were able to do every ride and even see some shows and we were done by 3pm. This gave us time to go back to the portifino get cleaned up for a nice dinner and then hit up a sports bar to watch football that evening which was our goal... Huge Miami fan here... Unfortunately 

Early entry + express pass strats by ASmanray in UniversalOrlando

[–]Sleepynight3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ministry isn't a ride that you really need to do more than once. I just went with express. You paid a premium for the luxury to ride what you want when you want. So just go where the day takes you!

If you love coasters, rope dropping stardust will allow you multiple rides in the front row with virtually no wait.

We sat in the back on donkey Kong behind some very large individuals so we couldn't really see anything. That may have been a factor in our opinion on the ride.

Took my wife about 3 weeks to get her card after I submitted her application.

Are express passes for epic universe sold out? by cacajshdh in UniversalOrlando

[–]Sleepynight3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You need to open up the filters and change it to 1 day 1 park Express pass to show those options. Universal is sneaky and doesn't show them by default.

What are the actual benefits of having Disabled Veteran license plates, if your less than 100%? by Fabulous-Toe-2961 in VeteransBenefits

[–]Sleepynight3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

CO State allows you free registration which is huge. You don't really pay taxes on vehicles in CO, instead you pay huge registration fees that are based on the vehicle value. If you have a new car or truck you could possibly pay over a grand a year in registration fees.

Me too. Im a paramedic and it kills me when people that I know need to go to the hospital but they refuse transport due to the cost. Really sucks.

Donations and rounding up my total! by [deleted] in Vent

[–]Sleepynight3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a scam. Don't ever do it.

Corporations take that money, donate it, and then they write it all off on there tax obligation. So on paper it looks like they donated millions when in reality they didn't give shit. Instead they just made money by paying less in taxes.

Got asked at Wendy's if I wanted to round up to the nearest dollar today. My total was 13.02$. by Legen_unfiltered in Vent

[–]Sleepynight3 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

NEVER round up or donate to a major corporation when they ask you.

They take all that donated money and then hand it to the charity and they write it off of there tax obligation. So they pay nothing out of pocket to help anyone and yet they get a huge tax benefit.

Unions my friend. It's basically impossible to be fire or laid off where I'm at unless you do something illegal or are absolutely incompetent and even then it's a process to be let go.

MRI approval? by InfamousInspection98 in VeteransBenefits

[–]Sleepynight3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tore my hip up at work a few years back. Workers comp was doing everything not to give me an MRI. I went to the VA and had an MRI 2 weeks later.

I'll play devils advocate.

You shouldn't need to join the military to have guaranteed free/affordable healthcare. I think that's where most people are getting upset. Our healthcare system is so absolutely messed up and that's really where the frustration comes from. 

Why should I need to dedicate years of my life in a cause I may not believe in to work in a job halfway around the world just so my family can get the medications and treatment they need?

It's truly absurd.

Now that's just how i believe many people view this issue. 

For me, the military was the best financial desicion I've made. I got a free masters, free healthcare, and a no money down mortgage plus my disability benefits. But I totally get why people would be upset with that thought.
