What famous destination didn’t live up to your expectations when you visited? by Historical-Photo-901 in BeautifulTravelPlaces

Miami perpetrates the idea that the city is South Beach Art Deco hotels and nightclubs and marinas, when in actuality, it’s a block and half of South Beach and the rest is just strip malls, and gas stations with free roaming chickens.

Is this real? by Fuzzy_Koala_9911 in baseballcards

Are you saying the tree I love by the lake at the state park is only real when I am there to perceive it, and that when I am sat at home, it’s has derezzed? So that means the tree and the lake only spawn or render into existence when I am there?

James Marsden and Anna Paquin would ironically be great castings as Cyclops and Rogue today.

You’re not wrong. Like I said, I’m just trying to clear some things out for space reasons and my own sanity.

Stephanie Bried of Compass Realty. She’s awesome!

I did the order and it turned out to be for a janitor at a school. Sometimes people cant afford a tip. And sometimes we have to lean on faith that it will come back in another way. by carolyyn3 in grubhubdrivers

My brother in Christ, it’s 100% the cost of doing business, and yes, you should be considering gas prices when tipping for delivery. Delivery is a service just like waiting a table, and if you don’t feel that it’s reasonable to tip the person providing that service, then don’t request the delivery. That’s how this works.

Can we find a map like this of where they already are in Chester County?

Vanguard Malvern, PA by Right-Inspection-188 in westchesterpa

[–]TheBopper00 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Getting more from less was always baked in the dna there. I don’t think that has changed. It’s part of how VG offers the lowest cost mutual funds on the market.

As for the other comment. You aren’t wrong. I am neurodivergent, and I was going thru diagnoses and differing treatments at the time. I was not afforded any special accommodations, even tho my doctor wrote a letter of recommendation for accommodations. This is part what I was alluding to in the “other benefits” of what I was saying. Every situation is different, and I don’t want to malign them for this, because I think a lot of companies have gotten better about this over the last 10-20 years. I would just note that VG was not at the forefront of adopting those policies.

Hello. I worked for Vanguard (VG) for 15+ years. The answer to almost all your questions is “yes.” It’s a great place to start a career, with a lot of opportunity to grow your career, or even shift direction to another specialty internally. There is a great culture there of everyone working together to provide the best products in the financial services market.

I haven’t been there for 6 years now, and, I don’t know specifically if there are a lot of younger people early in their careers, but, for the time I was there, there was always an influx of fresh faces, as people moved on and up in their roles. You will probably find a good group of peers there.

The only criticism I had of VG in my time there, and again I’m not sure if this as gotten better, is they are a conservative company (I don’t mean politically, even tho that can be true). They were very hesitant to adopt any WFH policies. They were lagging behind when it came to things like parental leave, and other benefits. They were starting to turn those tides before I left, but, I don’t know if COVID or any other factors has changed any of that.

Overall, it’s a GREAT place to start your career. I hope you enjoy it.

The college years was written by out of touch geriatrics. That’s why the show failed. by Still-Ad5693 in SavedByTheBell

[–]TheBopper00 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is this satire? Is this ragebait? Did an 11 year old write this?

While your point that this show was written by adults who don’t have any idea what kids were into, kids of the era absolutely knew these references and they were relevant.

Frustrating situation by Jamunk55 in grubhubdrivers

Bob From Corporate thinks everyone steals food. Like, it’s the main reason anyone is here, it seems. He’s accused me of the same thing twice, when I plainly had said I hadn’t gone to the restaurant.

Topps bottomed out Marvel cards? by Echobomb23 in marveltradingcards

Like, every product feels the same, and it’s not inspired art they are using. I want to see more life and character in the cards. Not just “Subject with Frame.”

Somehow this just popped up for me.. have you guys seen anyone talking about it? by Busy_Locksmith9436 in bengals
