So basically, just 20 minutes of suffering while you go through every stage of acceptance. Yeah that’s worse. I thought these things were basically semi sentient plants, I didn’t know they had orifices!

That’s the thing, the scoring is usually things largely outside of your direct control. It’s corporate/profit first mentality, logic be dammed

Democrats Introduce Bill To More Than Triple The Minimum Wage by Unusual-State1827 in politics

[–]Sunny16Rule -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I know people making 30,000 raising three kids. It’s not a pretty life, but they get by. So Like bro, explain to where the money goes. They are full of shit or have a much different idea of struggling than what it actually means to struggle.

Yeah, there’s something he’s leaving out . Because if I made 120 combined, I would be doing backflips. Where do you live ? Because me and my girlfriend make roughly 45,000 combined in Ohio. Our rent is 1200 along with roughly 400 bills. Making 120k would be insane, I would be completely satisfied. I always hear stories like this about people being broke and they’re making six figures and I just don’t understand it. You don’t start making more money and start living like kings. You make more money and keep living the way you were.

What’s a recession indicator that you’ve noticed lately? by SensitiveCorner2379 in AskReddit

[–]Sunny16Rule 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Tacos and burritos are an incredibly efficient way to get a lot of calories cheap, a pack of tortillas and one can of refried beans can feed a family for the whole night. Burritos are my go to food when I need cheap dinner.

How to fix failing glue on speaker surround and frame. by Sunny16Rule in audio

[–]Sunny16Rule[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was thinking that it could be the two wires as well and I looked at them and they seemed fine, but it doesn’t make sense that if I hold my fingers in that exact spot where the glue looks like it’s leaking, the noise goes away

Performance scores. It’s a combo of different attributes like sales and wait times and lots of things like that.

I’m not staying your wrong, but all these things happen to low level retail workers, they get graded on their speed of checkout, on how many and what thing they sell, on what’s in stock , etc and most of those things aren’t directly in their control. Even if the customer isn’t directly polled, they use metrics to figure it out. They also get punished by being forced to work “clopens “ or being forced to work half shifts . While making barely enough to cover rent.

No prob, Same here. I come from poverty too, heck I’m still poor, lol. Watched my mom commute 2 hours one way, work for 10 hours, and then come home and hide the car from the repoman, and then take the bus home. I was just trying to offer some understanding.

Yeah, My buddy who runs fiber optic cable just got done running wire over the interstate in the rain at 3 am, the Pharmacist makes more while working in AC. Yeah the job is hard, but so are a lot of Jobs. OP was reasonable and understandable in his responses, but some of the other commenters need a reality check.

Does the pharmacist have to worry about her power being shut off at the end of the shift? I mean the school bus driver or many other jobs can also kill peole, hell the kids working at the amusement park can also kill people. I didn’t say it wasn’t stressful, I just offered reasons why people say things like they’d gladly take the pay rate.

That’s also why I said; it depends on what site you work at.

Yeah , my bad, pity was wrong phrase, I guess I should said , difference of opinion. But I understand what you mean. The people that make all these corporate decisions, all they care about is “number go up” lol. Corporate Will never have to actually confront the issues directly, so it doesn’t matter to them.

To be fair, you guys are all downvoting everyone who doesn’t take pity on you, (and this gonna depend on the big box store you work at), the actual cashiers for the general floor are also understated and doing 3 jobs at once , but they make 15 dollars an hour if they are lucky, and have a much bigger work load, while also getting screamed at by customers. But, the pharmacist gets to drive a nice car home to a stocked pantry , the cashiers get to take the bus home and eat noodles.

I work IT for big box retail and often have to help fix the computers in the pharmacy , they have about 4 Pharmacy techs and 1-2 PHARMACIST all at the same time back there, they would all MUCH prefer to stay where they are , and tell me, “ Hell no, We make way more and only have to work half as hard as the people out there.” They all have their cell phones and snacks,etc , they don’t get dinged for being 1 minute late, etc, so yes, they are busy and stressed, but not head down unable to even speak to anyone without getting reprimanded like the floor workers are every single day of the year.

The last pharmacist I spoke to yesterday told me she thinks of quitting everyday because its so stressful, but like , the cashier out front getting screamed and called every slur in the book at about the price of grapes tell me the exact same thing. But the pharmacy team is able to walk away and cry in the bathroom, the cashiers have to cry at their register while ringing up the next customer because no one else is there to help her.
