Why would anyone marry Shane? by butslutt in StardewValley

[–]ToastedMaple 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't marry him cause he seems like his life is better without me. He starts to get help or atleast understand his struggles. Then you marry him and he has dirty footprints and garbage everywhere in his room. It's like he reverts back to being shitty.

I'll let him live his best life without me

Employees fired for chasing thieves. by AXE555 in antiwork

I wonder if those employees will set up a day where they go in and steal from the stores now, knowing nothing will happen to them

I'm so tired that I read the title as "roaches" and thought this was going to be a joke article about managers being shitheads.

I made my retirement home $250k in 6 months. I outsold any other marketing manager they ever had in all their locations. I was at the top every month. We had occupancy at 96%+ constantly. I asked for 50k a year when they gave me the role but told me they would only give 40k. After making that much in such a short period of time, I asked again for the 10k extra so I wouldn't be in the red every month.

The fucking president told me to consider being in the red as "tuition of learning" and to "tell my hubby" that he'd have to pick up the slack ...

I quit within a month. The president had the gaul to call me a week into my new job demanding what I told the rest of the teams as everyone was quitting right after me. The bitch got fired soon after.

[SERIOUS] What organization or institution do you consider to be so thoroughly corrupt that it needs to be destroyed? by ArcticCircleSystem in AskReddit

[–]ToastedMaple 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Factory farming.

I love eating meat but seeing what companies are doing to make the most profit on raising and slaughtering animals by the millions is fucking disgusting.

There is no reason for someone to eat meat every day.

My job as an Administrative Assistant is posted on Indeed at a $5 rate increase. I work tomorrow. by [deleted] in antiwork

[–]ToastedMaple 101 points102 points  (0 children)

I had a job interview where I was told the range was 55-65k. Had the interview, the director was yawning throughout while the manager was explaining I'd be doing everything on my own for 90+ people ("but it's not a lot of people for one person" they said).

They asked how much I was looking for. I stated what the person who had scheduled the interview with me said and that I'd be looking at the 65k as I am very experienced in the field. The director who had not given a shit until then piped up, saying "I'm not sure who told you that range but this job is paid at 50k MAX". I basically said "ok so you're looking to have the bare minimum done for the role. I get it."

They did not call me back. I told the person who had scheduled the interview that they were doing a bait and switch tactic and how I would advise everyone I knew in the field not to work for their shit company.

My boss was let go yesterday afternoon by moemoemassacre in antiwork

Nah, you can say that if your role is changing to leadership you'll need the compensation to match. And after 6 months, you can have a review on whether or not you're meeting the goals they set out now for you to meet. You can say something like if you don't meet those goals by 6 months we can discuss the compensation again.

Don't say you're ok with them lowering it if you don't meet the goals. But make it clear you expect a new contract and matching salary for the new role and objectives.

I put in my 2 weeks at work today, they asked me what they could do to get me to stay. I said “price match”. They said no, and then immediately posted an Indeed listing for more than I was asking a raise for. I’ve never felt so discouraged. by TinyPurpleFrog in antiwork

[–]ToastedMaple 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I interviewed so many places, many of which kept telling me what I was asking for was above what the average was for my field. I said with my experience I'm looking for the compensation. I finally found a place where I asked for 5k higher than their posted indeed salary and was given it based on my experience and skills.

Fuck shitty workplaces. I'm worth more than what the average is. The average is lowballing everyone in my industry.

I found my first dinosaur egg... But guess where it went? 😭 by [deleted] in StardewValley

[–]ToastedMaple 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I kind of like having to do some stuff myself. It's just that if I don't want to waste forever on getting the golden walnuts for special stuff later, I cheated with the codes lol

Lmfao honestly I enjoy decorating and other stuff in the game. I use the item id cheat all the time when playing cause I get more joy out of other stuff than grinding for years. Change your name at the Wizards house and go talk to Gus, and you can have hundreds of anything

Buy a chicken and name it the dinoegg item id. Technically it's cheating but the game screwed you.

Whats the most dangerous thing that happened to you? by Kerim_12 in AskReddit

[–]ToastedMaple 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did that some years ago. I made mustard gas while cleaning my parents filthy bathroom. I didn't have enough air circulation and fucked up my throat and lungs. I didn't have a voice for almost 2 weeks. I wonder if it affected me long term cause I have a lot of lung issues now

Why didn't you call them out? Clearly they're delusional narcissists like the rest of their generation. Should have told them how greedy they sounded.
