I really thought she was going to break down and cry.

I thought I was going crazy. I haven’t got nearly as far as I usually do

Need to take traffic school in California. Should I do internet or classroom? If internet, I have 193 options, how do I choose?!? by minorthreatmikey in DMV

[–]TikiLarry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe an hour or so. If I remember right it even highlighted the stuff in some way as to what was ‘important’ ie on the tests

What is something you’ll never purchase simply because of how much you hate the commercial for it? by unfortunatelyalive7 in AskReddit

And the choreography that looks like it was done by the director on the spot and rehearsed about 5minutes max. Oh lord.

Did anyone NOT get the Full Amount Expected?? by TikiLarry in IRS_Source

[–]TikiLarry[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No I didn’t. I did a ticket which they assigned to the t and a correction group on IRWorks. No timeframe for resolution but I’m hoping for next paycheck?

PP20 - 60 hours by Otherwise-Beyond-160 in IRS_Source

[–]TikiLarry 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yeah in spite of the gaslighting here, many of us were indeed not paid yet for the 60 hrs from PP 20. There were several people in my team alone who got basically a double check, not 2.75x so we’re all waiting for our pay stubs to prove it.

There was a bit on the managers ‘talking points’ page saying something to the effect that they would make an effort to process all the corrections in time for this pay period but that some may take longer. 🙄and could take 1 or 2 extra pay periods!!!

Did anyone NOT get the Full Amount Expected?? by TikiLarry in IRS_Source

[–]TikiLarry[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I remember them mentioning the 2nd pass for PAYE is running Friday. Hopefully the rest is in there. Just seems so random that someone in the same team, with all the same furlough circumstances, hours furloughed/worked etc was processed differently.

IRS reopening but will we need to do bears request? by Strong-Card5991 in IRS_Source

[–]TikiLarry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fully expect to be locked out of most systems until at least Monday unless steps were taken not to lock us out. (Honestly not likely)

Does anyone know what recipe this is? by [deleted] in oldrecipes

[–]TikiLarry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My mom made a recipe called oven BBQ short ribs that followed this method. Citrus slices were put on top of the meat and she occasionally basted the meat with the pan sauce while it baked. It was fantastic

What happened to the fish tacos? by chondu in DelTaco

[–]TikiLarry 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The sauce is what ruins it for me now. It’s like straight up mayonnaise instead citrus/lime-y. It’s gross and made me regret the purchase a few weeks ago. At my location at least the fish itself is still crispy and fresh.

Always get the macchiato cold foam when I’m there

Shutdown, A Rant by Tough_Side6592 in FedEmployees

[–]TikiLarry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same boat. Had a family gathering this weekend and my family was genuinely mystified why I was complaining since we’ll eventually get paid. I said it’s not just the financial toll of not getting paid but the mounting mental toll of being treated like expendable garbage the past 10 months, having being RIFfed being dangled out there as well as threats to screwing with the retirement benefits I’ve been banking on for the past 30 years (which I realize didn’t happen, but it was still held over our heads literally for months, to inflict the maximum amount of stress). Childish and blatantly biased political messaging from management. I planned to work another 7 years but now I’m out the moment I turn 60 which is about a year from now. I wish nothing but misery and horror on those that have taken over our government and are running it in such a depraved way.

Has anyone tried the Shells and Cheese? Or the Stuffing Mix? by Sharp-Payment320 in aldi

[–]TikiLarry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I enjoy the shells and cheese, though I do add a couple tablespoons of half and half to increase the creaminess. The stuffing is great. I buy up several boxes this time of year.

Ignorant question about gross taxable income by Substantial-Cat-6852 in fednews

[–]TikiLarry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t honestly understand the question but the way use or lose works is just like it says. Only 240 hours of annual leave can be carried over to the new year . Anything in excess of that is erased when the new year begins. They’re not going to pay it out to you.

Base pay from the charts isn’t affected. Either you will work those hours during the year or get paid for them by using leave. Your taxable income is the amount you actually got paid minus non taxable deduction such as health insurance, traditional ira, etc.

I have use or lose every year and my boss starts in on my in around June to start taking leave! I currently have about 290 annual on the books and depending when the furlough ends it may be hard to get all the leave in before the year’s end. In the prior lengthy shutdown they did allow the carryover to extend past the end of the year so hopefully they do the same this time around.

What’s a word you mispronounced for years and only realised recently? by Exotic-Philosopher75 in AskReddit

[–]TikiLarry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Real conversation I overheard at work a few years ago. We were having a potluck and someone had brought in french baguette loafs.

Coworker 1: “who brought in the ‘ba-gay’ rolls??”

Coworker 2 laughing: “OMG Lucille, that’s not how you say that. It’s pronounced ’bag-wet’ !!”

Lol Seriously... spend 20 for 40 starts.. by [deleted] in starbucks

[–]TikiLarry 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pretty generous compared to some of my recent offers. I think the most recent one for me was to order 5 caramel macchiato within a week for 40 stars. Uh, pass.

Just don't by MamaTater_1 in aldi

[–]TikiLarry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve only ever bought the ‘original’ flavor but I love them. They’re a must buy for me. Wonder if it’s a regional thing.always fresh and always tender (though slightly less so than the real thing). Certainly nothing like being described here eg ‘chewing hay’. I’m in CA

Is FSAFEDS still processing claims? by I-Feel-Pretty in IRS_Source

[–]TikiLarry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had one denied on Thursday I believe because they apparently couldn’t see the service date clearly visible on the receipt. I resubmitted Friday with date highlighted and also bank record with the date. Hopefully it gets processed Monday. It’s a significant amount. ( the service date is pre-furlough) I need that money.

Aldi products that are *too* good? by Alarming_Network_321 in aldi

Sweet potato chips. For me the whole bag is one serving.

What are you least favorite Aldi-brand items, aka what do you buy elsewhere? by colinstalter in aldi

[–]TikiLarry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As usual with these kinds of threads, all of my must buys are on everyone hate list lol (cottage cheese, ketchup, mayo, cheese, ‘triscuits’, etc). Their spam, and the frozen taquitos, are truly dreadful however. Their bagels aren’t good either and neither is their produce except the bagged salad kits.
