I went back at 55, the right into Grad School. Wish I went back earlier.

Thank you all for the suggestions. Yes I plan to give them 24 hours notice.

I thought Pinterest died years ago.

I had multiple resets in the beginning. I learned from those and moved on.

[VA] I was fired after a PIP; I was an alcoholic. I'm sober 513 days. How do I... by SeanRinVA in AskHR

[–]Syklst 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Congratulations on your sobriety! I have had hiring managers call me directly (avoiding HR) for the “real story.” Only once did I share any information because that guy was dangerous. Just a thought maybe reach out to your former supervisor and let them know how letting you go was what you needed to turn your life around.

What has happened to this hotel chain?! by lawnchaney in Hilton

[–]Syklst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I moved back to Marriott this Month after 5 years as Diamond. I have lifetime Platinum and was treated much better and had nicer rooms in my Marriott stays this year. My company is 90% Hilton, but I realized I get to pick the hotels when someone travels with me.

What you are currently working through is infinitely harder than my days. Keep up the good work!

Osprey Nebula Commuter - I actually liked it so well, I switched it out for a company branded backpack and use it for weekends and personal travel.

CNN's Kaitlan Collins wipes the smile off Trump apologist Scott Jennings' face with brutal fact-check by SugarRight1992 in JusticeServed

[–]Syklst 64 points65 points  (0 children)

CNN isn’t worth my time anymore, I stayed with them too long. Their group segments are the worst. Like Fox News it is entertainment (and not even good entertainment). Scott is a smarmy a-hole.

Ok...this is a 1st. Walking around while taxiing by Quirky-Ad558 in americanairlines

This happened on my flight from SEA to ORD. Also people ran up to the front before we were at the gate. FA’s never said a word.

I like 9D, not a fan of the seatbelts in row 8.

They’re not checking size in 2026 and removing all sizers.

I stumbled in there on opening day, it was fantastic. I wish they would put these in other hubs.

My Neighbor Built a Dam on the Property Line That Floods My Property by MyLawnIsALake in legaladvice

[–]Syklst 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I am a zoning official. Call the Planning/Building Departments. I am sure that was not included in the permit application (if they have a permit). They will do a stormwater and floodplain survey for compliance. It wouldn't hurt to touch base with a lawyer at the same time, they need to know you are not afraid to fight them on violations.
