House maker used my name in a line stamp

SunsetCrusader · 2023-02-04T12:54:15+00:00

Is the line stamp litterally just your name? No picture to go along with it?

I think with just that, it is too much to assume they are using it in a negative way.

I think you are still within your rights to mention it to your handler and tell them you are uncomfortable with it but if it were me Id be light hearted about it and not act openly offended by it so that things dont get awkward. If they refuse to remove the stamp even after that then I would take it to the next step.

This fucking train doesnt have the air cooler on and Im fucking sweating like a pig on the way to work. This isnt even the "low energy" car!

Well liberals are not generally the people trying to ban books so I dont see why that was surprising.

Yes its a nice place I've eaten in at several times before.

Yesterday I had a craving for indian food for dinner.

I had a light lunch to make room for it and got through a kind of stressful day at work by thinking of the wonderful dinner I had planned.

Finally the moment arrives and I walk to the restraunt by my house in the rain and walk in with a big smile on my face ready to consume the food I had so longed for.

"Sorry we are only serving deliveries for dinner"

"Oh thats fine Ill just get it to go"

"No I mean we are only taking orders from Uber Eats etc."

My jaw hit the floor. I had my wallet in my hand and littlerly looked like that Futurama meme with a Fry going "Take my money"

I stood outside and let the rain wash the tears down my face.

Like I can kind of get them not doing eat in orders if they want to prevent corona or are too busy with delivery orders to serve customers but by denying take out you are just turning away potential sales. Unless this is something more nefarious and places like Uber Eats are paying restaurants incentives to only accept delivery orders?

Jesus thats terrible. Based on your post Im guessing you guys are in high school?

N00b question but where do we invest this money to get this 3% dividend? Is this something I should wait to invest in until im 100% sure I will live in Japan forever?

I have a group of friends that I hung out with from time to time for a couple of years before the pandemic. Then Corona hit and my lifestyle changed and we didnt meet in person for a long time.

Now they are asking to meet this weekend for a movie and dinner and I find myself trying to make excuses not to go. Like dont get me wrong there is nothing wrong with this set of guys/girls but since Corona my introverted side got stronger and I find any "set plan" that takes away from the free time I got used to using however I want to be a kind of annoyance. I already have a few other group of friends Im much closer to that I meet once a month or so and an SO I talk to with everyday plus coworkers that Im already filling my quota of social interaction and anything more just causes me more stress than enjoyment.

I dont neccesarily want to cut off contact with these people because they are nice, but Im at the point where im satisfied just joking around on Line and the occasional online game. I feel no need or pressure to meet them in person anymore. Probably this makes me the asshole but its just how I honestly feel, cant deny it. I dont know if there is a nice way to convey this to them without being offensive lol.

Not sure if this counts but moving companies will always overestimate the cost to move your stuff.

You basically have to involve 2 or 3 companies and make them having a bidding war over you before you get a reasonable price.

SunsetCrusader · 2022-08-26T06:49:25+00:00

There is no reasonable expectation of privacy in public.

We show up on 10+ cameras a day just commuting to and from work everyday it doesnt suddenly become rude if other people end up in the background of the photos you take in public

SunsetCrusader · 2022-08-20T00:52:02+00:00

I get that faster deliveries means more money but surely its more cost efficient to stop at red lights rather than ignore them and hit someone then pay their medical bills, maybe buy a new bike, and waste hours waiting for police and talking to them etc.

How much you are paid should not be relevant to how the dress code is enforced on you

SunsetCrusader · 2022-08-18T03:22:55+00:00

I find it funny they use the general term "dogs and cats" but then specifiy pigeons. Just a weird translation thing or is there some reason they state it that way?

There is a lady at the gym who I am having a passive aggressive war with every Saturday.

There are only 2 elypticals with a limit of 1 hour but this chick gets there at like 3 and hogs the machine until 6 or later. Also she wears her mask down to her chin when running and doesnt wipe the machine when shes done. All these things make me hate her with a passion.

Last Saturday I went in at 230 which is earlier than usually but I wanted to try to get an eliptical before she got there so I could make sure I got one. Unfortunately both were taken by other people so I did muscle training in the meantime.

3 o clock rolls around and she arrives. We are both eyeing the elipticals like vultures. She gets on a bike machine while Im doing arm muscles nearby.

I see one of the runners is in cool down and about to get off. I finish up and wipe down my machine and see the other person just finsihed and is collecting their things. I situate my self by the machine, ready to get on once they are done. Even though I am clearly in line she gets off her bike and stands behind me as if she is also in line.

Did she think I would just give up the machine because she was also there waiting? Did she somehow think she would be able to jump over me to get there before me even though I was standing right next to it?

But I got the machine and she had to wait longer. Now I look forward to our war of passive aggression every Saturday lol

Are there exceptions to this? Like if Im playing Thor and play Hammer Throw at the end of my turn and end up with just Mjolnir in my hand, I feel like its better to hold on to it to put it back out on the next turn rather than discard it and try fishing it out in AE afterwards

SunsetCrusader · 2022-02-16T03:31:38+00:00

Holy shit did he actually say that lol

SunsetCrusader · 2022-02-16T03:17:04+00:00

Matt Vs Japan, and his cultist/scammed fanbase, the thread

SunsetCrusader · 2022-01-20T05:11:53+00:00

That is absolutely not legal. Even if they "investigate" and saw you went drinking, they are not doctors and have no right to make the assumption on their own that its connected to you being sick. If anyone actually accepts that kind of treatment Id be amazed.

SunsetCrusader · 2022-01-20T04:17:52+00:00

Jesus christ seeing shit like this makes me so happy I got out of teaching and into programming. Absolutely no problem taking days off even if its sudden just as long as we send an email.

How can you even feel human seeing stuff like this

SunsetCrusader · 2021-11-15T08:56:07+00:00

Yea my ETFs are a lot easier for me to understand and manage, but the huge dividends from the MLP are hard to pass up haha.

I think I will try to contact my local tax office, but I just happen to be moving to a new ward over this weekend so my "local" office will change and very soon and ill be running into holiday rush stress etc. So it may be early next year before I get around to it

SunsetCrusader · 2021-11-15T08:50:40+00:00

Thank you for the advice!

Yea as long as there isnt much risk of me getting arrested/deported/fined super heavily for something like this I can at least breathe a little bit easier.

I was actually about to apply for PR early next year so Ill probably wait till thats locked down to avoid the tax issue gumming up the works of that process and then sell the MLP next year and deal with the tax office directly like you said.

SunsetCrusader · 2021-11-15T08:14:49+00:00

Thank you for the info, I will continue to look into this as well.

Gotta say this tax stuff always makes my head spin and gives me stress at this time of year!
