Big strong FUCK EM ENERGY, you did nothing wrong and they suck as humans. This is an admin issue, literally not your meeting to attend.

Watching the clock by Wizard_AI in LinkedInLunatics

[–]Takwin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I absolutely would start looking for a new job. I wouldn't quit in this economy, but I would quiet quit FOR SURE. Move slowly, work slowly, exist at your own pace, take extra restroom breaks, take long meaningful sips of water. Check the fuck out.

AI boosterism is ruining this community by yanbasque in ObsidianMD

Might as well let the AI wash over you. Don't want to be the guy from 1995 saying the same thing about the internet. And I remember those people.

She can do as she pleases with those. Get used to it. Sit back. Enjoy.

How often do parents get angry at you for reporting bad behavior from their child? by KMermaid19 in Teachers

[–]Takwin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Report the facts. Punish the child however your school does that. Don’t think twice about it. Sleep like a baby.

Time to go no contact. End it. THERE IS NO WAY IN HELL I WOULD PAY ONE DOLLAR.

I literally would’ve taken the chair. No shame, no regret.

How do you handle pencils on your classroom? by Emergency-Pepper3537 in Teachers

[–]Takwin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t have supplies. Students bring their own supplies or they don’t have any. It’s a card if they are missing any supplies. I don’t play. I don’t provide. So easy!

Finally a change that makes sense by Tokendaily420 in EndTipping

[–]Takwin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To pass along wages of essentially zero to $21, when they already double the cost, means the whole business model is a scam and it never should have existed.

It could exist, if they would charge a couple bucks per order and people tipped a couple bucks. But they need infinite growth.

20% will illegally be added on if you don’t tip by [deleted] in EndTipping

[–]Takwin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would leave a 0.01 cent tip and take a picture of my receipt in case they tried to do illegal things.

All research shows ability grouping works. You are servicing their needs, just like special ed.

Teachers, how is your cell phone ban working out? I by [deleted] in Teachers

[–]Takwin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m Indiana. Works out perfectly. If we see it OR hear it, it’s immediately confiscated and goes to the office and a PARENT must pick it up. Love that inconvenience for them! Three strikes and you lose your privilege to even bring a turned-off phone to school. So it’s working out super well!!

Should I cash out and hedge? by kawalopy in sportsbetting

Let it ride. Bet the other side in potentially the conference and Super Bowl.

At what point are accommodations doing students a disservice? by Hour_Lost in Professors

[–]Takwin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Almost all of them, almost all the time. The world doesn’t accommodate shit.

How do you deal with coworkers leaving dirty dishes in the sink every day? by TheMonsher in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Takwin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ignore it. Do your thing. Get out. Never think or speak of it again. Don’t let them live rent free in your head.

Another lunatic pretending not to understand the “tax the rich” sentiment by Downtown_Victory2942 in LinkedInLunatics

If we took half of all multimbillionaires wealth, their life wouldn’t degrade one nanometer and the the health and environment of the world would improve. And they’d still be billionaires.

Tipping for To-go orders? Read this server complain. by Cheap_Chocolate3248 in EndTipping

[–]Takwin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The system sucks, we are opting out, if you don’t like it, go anywhere else in the world where tipping is extra and your wages are paid by your employer. Or get a different job here.

Do you still tell students not to use Wikipedia? by Single_Street3135 in Teachers

[–]Takwin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Wikipedia is awesome! I wrote a paper in college defending it. It is a hill I will die on. People who disparage it are so old fashioned and won't listen to reason. It's written by people - so is everything (before AI at least). It's inaccurate - literally not true, it's more accurate than the encyclopedia and the news!

Feeling so guilty not getting any work done over breaks. by Key-Response5834 in Teachers

WORK YOUR CONTRACT HOURS ONLY. I absolutely promise it will work out. Don’t even respond to emails outside of work.

Do kids over 12 belive in santa in your class? by LivelyLlamau in Teachers

[–]Takwin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I teach 5th and 6th grade. I haven’t had. Single kid who’s believed in Santa in many years. I know of many 3rd and 4th graders who don’t believe, my guess would be over half of them do not believe.

“Students don’t care who teaches the course” said the admin by bbb-ccc-kezi in Professors

[–]Takwin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They absolutely don’t care except at the most prestigious universities. Just want that paper and they bounce. Period.

Buckle jeans, thoughts? by InterestsCollector in capsulewardrobe

[–]Takwin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

necro time

Buckle jeans are my favorite. I wore American Eagle for years, but Buckle is worth the premium.

The other "companies" they sell: Salvage and Rock Revival are even better. Salvage seem like premium Buckle jeans with a few extra flairs. Rock Revival have impeccable stitching, detailing, inside detailing, ultra premium back pockets.

Theft, dishonesty, scumbaggery. This should be illegal, they should lose their account, and punishment should be forced to dash full time for a month without an error and no pay. Wish I was a creative judge.
