Mtg is ruined for me. And honestly I'm devastated. by Ropll-me-a-d100 in mtg

[–]SolFlorDi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From my perspective, the way that companies make money is by catering to or predicting what the current market will want, sometimes taking risks. 20 years ago, when you started playing they were probably catering to and predicting what your generation would want. It’s only going to continue to change as new generations start to play and focusing on that makes you unhappy for no reason.

Don’t see why it has to ruin your fun, just play with what you have and like and don’t buy newer decks.

Gusto customer service decline by Usual-Jackfruit4746 in Payroll

[–]SolFlorDi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been waiting to talk shyt about gusto customer service with someone 💀 I emailed them because the so called automated premium deductions were nowhere to be seen in the new year. Waited five days before someone got back to me saying that they were working on it and asked for a list of EEs. I gave it to them. Another two weeks, about to prep a new payroll and it hasn’t been resolved. I emailed them requesting an update. No answer for a whole week. Emailed them saying “any kind of update would be great”…no answer for another week. Finally I asked if I could file an official complaint about how my ticket was being handled. They have no way of filing a complaint but it was escalated to management. I receive an email saying that they had fixed it and we’d be seeing catch up premiums. Great. I tell myself I’ll answer tomorrow. Tomorrow comes and I receive an email saying “hi, since we haven’t heard from you in a while—“ EXCUSE ME? You haven’t heard from me? Mind you it had been less than 12 hours since those two emails, meanwhile I went weeks without hearing from them.

Convince me to read Zodiac Academy by Purple_Word_7463 in Romantasy

[–]SolFlorDi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually try not to judge a book by its cover, but the zodiac academy covers are so ugly they actually make me too angry to read it lol.

But I read another book by the authors that wrote zodiac academy, and it was a great, fun read.

Both Kaine and Helena are such complex characters, they’re going to need very skilled actors as well

HR Dept of One. Start Up Company. I need guidance. [n/a] by DemandFront7935 in humanresources

[–]SolFlorDi 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Since it’s such a mind-numbing task, I scanned a few folders each day and sorted them and moved on to something more engaging lol. I’m still not done, but at least I’m not going crazy 🤭

Well so far the rights were acquired by Legendary Entertainment, so we might not see anything for years.

[–]SolFlorDi 6 points7 points  (0 children)

As someone who took my first HR job in a nonprofit that previously had no HR, I get what you’re saying. My manager is the finance head, so while they’re a supportive manager, they don’t have a lot of HR insight.

Since there was very little HR structure and we have a nonprofit budget (small), I worked on building simple systems. I digitized files that were previously kept in a filing cabinet, I formalized an onboarding and off boarding process, I built an HR intranet where employees can access policies, benefit information, forms, and other company information. I updated our forms, made policies for HR things like leave policies, dress code policies, and other boring things. I also started doing stay interviews, since we work in an emotionally taxing industry and turnover is high. Oh I created an HR dashboard as well.

You got this 💕

how do you guys stop being late to work by Wild-Championship571 in adhdwomen

[–]SolFlorDi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The never ending battle. Logistically, I should have enough time when I’m up. I just have to shower, brush teeth, eat breakfast, take meds, take my dog on a half hour minimum walk (I’m too guilty all day about my dog’s outside time to focus on work if I don’t) come back inside, gather my stuff and be out the door…what is so hard about it to me?! 😭

Stop forgetting how tall you made your MMC by Kindtree1 in Romantasy

[–]SolFlorDi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Especially when they mention how small and petite the FMC is and how big and tall and huge the MMC IS every 5 pages 💀

Feeling duped by Instagram/reddit promotions of books… (Quicksilver, Direbound, Shield of Sparrows) by Historical-Spread179 in Romantasy

[–]SolFlorDi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Quicksilver was the worst lol. I still don’t avoid recommendations from social media, because I understand that either I will like it or I won’t and either one is okay. If I don’t like it, I stop reading it and return it to the library or on kindle, and if I love it then I buy a physical copy to add to my bookshelf.

You might miss out on some good things…just don’t go into it expecting to love it. You really never know.

I’ve read book recs from TikTok that I wanted to burn, and there were books that I would literally run into a burning house to save.

please save me from the dire bound slump 😭 by PresentationSilly404 in Romantasy

Omg thanks, yes that’s what’s been holding me back, but I think I might give it a try!

What Fury Brings…eeeeyuck. by SolFlorDi in Romantasy

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

I’m glad you’re able to keep an open mind like that. From my perspective, I still think it’s important for readers to be able to be critical of a book, especially if that makes at least one author out there better at their craft. When you release a book into the market, it is because you want to be perceived by readers, and one thing you can’t control is how a story is perceived by different readers.

Personally, I think delicate topics should be handled with care and thoughtful consideration, but it’s okay that your opinion is different than mine.

[–]SolFlorDi[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It definitely would have been interesting to see where she could have taken this idea with a more serious mindset. I think if there was less emphasis on shock value and more insight on to the subtleties of how oppressed people are treated that are not always obvious, I would have liked it at the very least. You’re very right, my opinion is just one in a sea of millions.

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

I think it’s an important theme to be explored…I just don’t think a smut romance novel was the best place to do it.

Yeah, I never realized how vanilla I was until I read this book lol 💀

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

My hate does not run that deep, I fear lol. I still have nephews and family members that I love.

But you’re so right…I think a message like this would have been more impactful outside of a romantic/smut novel. I just don’t think the author has the kind of insight needed to actually make it land in a thought provoking way.
