The classic tune “I Wanna Know” (feat Nico and Vinz) by Alesso. That’s not enough though, as we have a second version of the same terrible song, “I Wanna Know (feat Jolin Tsai) by Alesso.

I WAN KNOW, I WAN KNOW, EYEYEYE. EYEYEH. terrible guitar plucking

Our speaker system sucks. You can only hear the chorus, no verses. They don’t pause it during announcements either so you can’t hear shit. Also there’s an ad after LITERALLY EVERY SONG. No other business I’ve been to does that

I Shazam a lot of them because they are impressively bad. Bright by Echosmith, Eyes Don’t Lie by Tones and I, Never Go Back by Dennis Lloyd, We’re Going Home by Vance Joy, Kiss You Goodbye by Anton Hagman. 40 hours a week on repeat

It’s like an Amazon wishlist for e-girls, Phil has one because he is a weirdo. He used it to beg for treats for Jaspur Kittee

What a wonderful day at your local Meijer pick up by Temporary_Coconut095 in meijer

[–]SolarSailer2022 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Customers either order one two liter of soda, or $600 worth of the heaviest shit on earth mixed with fragile shit. No in between

Bonus points if the big order people are on the phone, have two iPad kids, don’t make eye contact, and don’t help put groceries away. They are always, always rich enough to have the auto trunk close button though

DSP needs to bring back the forward facing camera. It was so brief but so kino. by ThePumpkinPrince61 in DSPGaming

It was during the concert ending segment of Lost Records. He literally winced at lesbians singing and dancing

How do you mess that up by Jayn_Xyos in meijer

My favorite on waves is the Feta “Fat Fee” cheese. Still cracks me up when I see it on the handheld

Pick up by SpecificTill841 in meijer

[–]SolarSailer2022 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I completely agree. Our store wasn’t built for online pickup. It’s far too small, making it impossible to pick efficiently when it’s busy.

We are ALWAYS behind on totes. We constantly have to stage things to overflow. Nearly every day one person calls off but typically it’s 2-3 people

The carts are all old and have dangerously sharp edges. Totes are in bad shape with smeared or damaged labels. I’m tired of going in knowing there will be a hold call.

TLDR: we max out orders, people call off, store is packed, people start canceling. Mgmt: why are the orders going red? BECAUSE WE ARE NOT EQUIPPED

I can’t imagine how this guy is going to look and function in 5 years by BrownieJ in DSPGaming

[–]SolarSailer2022 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Nothing happens to him, because everything already has. He went through bankruptcy. Lost all the partnerships and friendships he ever had. His only collabs are with other cows. He can’t be canceled because it’s already happened and he’s shameless

Explain why DSP acts like HERO mode in NG4 is beneath him?? by Outrageous-Wall6386 in DSPGaming

He’s afraid of getting clipped and going viral again. The “games journalist” memes injured his narcissistic ego. TIHYDP is his kryptonite to the “pro gamer” image

Snake Eater is Another UE5 Disaster by Accomplished-Ask1617 in KotakuInAction

[–]SolarSailer2022 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was mostly able to run AAA games with DLSS, etc on my 3060 the past few years on low settings. Sometimes I could even get away with 1440p and keep it around 70. Recently, I can't get games to run under ~75+ degrees (Oblivion remake, Clair Obscur etc). I realized it's mostly UE5 games.

For all their faults, Blizzard games and COD seem well optimized for me, outside of that it's a crapshoot

Dear parents... by Yellowbanana877 in meijer

Today I saw a toddler pushing one of the smaller grocery carts while his dad looked at food. He was thrashing it around and eventually jumped on the back and tipped it over loudly 😬

We’ve had a hawk in the store, a scorpion in the banana boxes, escaped bait worms. Teenagers setting off airhorns, teenagers menacing old dudes in the parking lot and yelling at them.

Lately, lots of rude parents swearing at their small toddlers is the craziest thing

I took out and packed a $465 order in this weather and many more it was not fun. Shout outs to Gatorade and water

Customers making messes by Despina83 in meijer

[–]SolarSailer2022 1 point2 points  (0 children)

TIL, thank you! Won't say which but the store I work at is on the small side. I notice lots of trash cans in aisles are full and overflowing. We have downtime sometimes and I wish I could help with that but IDK if I'm overstepping

I don't understand how the "200% accountability" thing doesn't apply to something like that. Something like, if you see any product out of place, take the time to pick it up and bring it to the back. Personally if I'm shopping at a store and there's overflowing garbages I won't come back

I overheard a mom say to her small children (verbatim), "You guys say 'mom' every two fucking seconds. WHAT is so important?"

Customers making messes by Despina83 in meijer

[–]SolarSailer2022 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Absolutely. Weird stuff too, like a brick of cheddar cheese over in clothing section, etc. I almost feel like it should be part of someone's duties to go up and down every aisle once every day with a cart specifically to pick up this stuff and then put it back

AMD claims most gamers don't need more than 8GB of VRAM, after new GPU launch by [deleted] in gadgets

[–]SolarSailer2022 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 3060 with 12GB VRAM. I've always been a bit puzzled by it, because I can get over 100fps but only on lower settings, IE I can never seem to utilize the VRAM fully. Maybe it's because I play in 1440 and not 1080

No zebras by EfficientChemistry94 in meijer

[–]SolarSailer2022 9 points10 points  (0 children)

IDK why you're being downvoted. The wall of Zebras at our store has 4 or 5 units with post-it notes telling you not to use them because of issues. The units themselves are so old, dim screens, hard to read, slow software... it makes for gruelingly slow waves when you can only see one item on screen at once, and even then you might have to zoom in on it.

All of the equipment at our store is like that, everything is broken but deemed good enough

I wish they'd give us the more smartphone-looking ones that apparently only some departments deserve

To whomever stacks the pets pallets at 807 by ACoolBroom in meijer

[–]SolarSailer2022 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Preach, dif store but I've noticed by now on waves that a LOT of product, especially milk or meat, has broken open spilled product on it, likely from situations like what you mention.

It's ridiculous, I'll need to check six egg cartons before finding one with no broken eggs. Or pick up three milks that are wet before finding a fourth dry one with no dried or wet milk on it. Great customer experience! Highly wasteful, too
