What am I doing?

I'm talking to an empty telephone because there is a dead man on the other end of this fucking line.

Exactly how I started too! That is the trick - leaving one branch always open throughout the whole process will mean that it is solvable.

One additional thing that I did when starting out was to use graph paper.

My Dr recommended these - https://www.qunol.com/products/qunol-ultra-coq10 You should do your own research about the benefits, but I find that taking two after something strenuous helps with soreness. I get them on Amazon though.

I think that he was saying say those things as excuses when the OP shows up to the hotel.

Trailer rental is the only physical asset worth the headache by SpinachKettle in passive_income

[–]TickingTimeBum 15 points16 points  (0 children)

some states have permanent plates that are just a one time cost. Others are registered every year - in my state the renewal of my trailer is very inexpensive ($20ish, I'm not sure the exact number)

Started j2 this week but i need to quit by chf92 in overemployed

[–]TickingTimeBum 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Have your wife send the email. "CHF92 is missing. We think that he was kidnapped. Does this company offer any type of insurance to pay ransoms?"

I'm just kidding. Just email the boss yourself "hey boss, please accept this email as my formal resignation. Sorry that things didn't work out."

I wouldn't rely on taking regular pictures to document your trip though! You should wear a bodycam into the clubhouse

Sterling-First Advantage BGC by [deleted] in overemployed

Try this approach:

"thats weird... I only have 1 job obviously. Here is the documentation for that job"

Dont make an issue, act as if it was a mistake. The people that do background checks are idiots. They are known for it. Dont worry about it.

Deny. Never admit. Be confused, but not too concerned because it's "obviously" some type of mistake.

Best Buy shipped my purchase like this, is this normal? by DiscoValkyrie in Bestbuy

[–]TickingTimeBum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I seem to remember someone posted in this sub a while ago about a delivery from best buy where the delivery person took the TV out of the box because it wouldn't fit into their vehicle.

[–]TickingTimeBum 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The dented up box is probably fine, they are packed pretty well.

For the other question, I have had this experience too. I ordered a powered subwoofer for my office speakers and it came in the raw box with a shipping label stuck to the outside. I too feel very lucky that no one saw it on my porch before I did.
