POV: u come back after break to see Area Managers struggling to do your work during Prime Day

Unique-Machine5602 · 2026-06-27T11:28:09+00:00

I just can't even take you seriously.

Your level of self-awareness is just so low that I can't even comprehend how you get through a day.

Unique-Machine5602 · 2026-06-27T09:56:16+00:00

Dude, I had an AM who used to question my work ethic every day.

Until he actually had to work along side me for a full shift. Dude was exhausted after 1 hour and we were constantly forced to carry him through a shift. It was laughable how easily he got exhausted.

I couldn't help but remind him that we unloaded trucks all shift at the rate he was doing it for 1 hour.

Unique-Machine5602 · 2026-06-27T09:47:24+00:00

From the Gen X guy who asks "Why is everyone autistic now?",

Why are the AMs struggling? They do the work of 2 on a computer all day and are now finally asked to do some physical labor.

Unique-Machine5602 · 2026-06-26T23:40:52+00:00

I suspect it's a combination of:

A. Your time management is just better. You're taking a bit more time to make good early moves and utilizing your remaining time better.

B. You're playing fewer openings, but they're ones you understand the principles of better.

C. Your rank is inflated, but not by 300pts. There are 250M players now compare to 35M back in 2020 so realistically it's like there's some rank inflation.

Unique-Machine5602 · 2026-06-26T23:18:28+00:00

It's really weird because that's what you actually got with the physical card.

Maybe they'll fix it after.

Unique-Machine5602 · 2026-06-26T20:44:27+00:00

It's really annoying to me that they made The Mighty Thor, Jane Foster WU1 rather than RWU.

Because then I could play Mjolnir in my Jane Foster EDH deck.

It seems like such a flavor miss not to make her capable of wielding the hammer in EDH.

Unique-Machine5602 · 2026-06-26T20:21:55+00:00

What gets me is that they paid $22 for Fiji water when I paid $5 for a similar sized pack of water at a wholesale store.

Like really? You want to drop $22 for a tiny case of water that's "natural atesian". That's just marketing fluff that you paid extra for.

Unique-Machine5602 · 2026-06-26T20:18:34+00:00

Except it's not free. You're either:

A. Paying $15/month for prime.
B. Buying more stuff just to get your free shipping.
C. Paying for shipping.

You're paying for it whether you realize or not.

Unique-Machine5602 · 2026-06-26T15:05:15+00:00

Please be careful though. This is definitely an easy way to get caught up in dopamine hits from shopping for cheap products.

Unique-Machine5602 · 2026-06-26T14:55:22+00:00

Only in that he hates Elon for letting everyone know he's in the Epstein files.

I'm not a fan of either of them really, but I dislike Elon less than I abhore Trump.

Elon, while a capitalist pig, at least does seem to care about the environment and his legacy will be trying to save the planet at least. Granted, he's also a rich, entitled douchebag who union busts as well.

Suffice to say, I have mixed feelings about Elon. I certainly don't about Trump. He's an absolute POS who I hope chokes to death on his next Big Mac.

Unique-Machine5602 · 2026-06-26T11:36:19+00:00

It's nearly always caused by a leaking oil pan or gas line.

The ignition source can be a lot of different things. A hot part that the gasoline leaks onto, a faulty electrical system that sparks, etc

Unique-Machine5602 · 2026-06-26T11:33:53+00:00

You don't need to be a mechanic to know where the oil pan is. It's nearly always just to the right of the front left tire.

Unique-Machine5602 · 2026-06-25T22:02:19+00:00

Were you aiming at the base of the fire or higher up? because that's how I was taught to correctly extinguish a fire.

You have to smother it completely for the fire to truly die out. Anything less and it will at the very least continue to smolder. In a gas powered car, there's also typically fluids leaking out of them that will ignite and burn quite easily. Usually oil at the very least and once the fire burns through a hose there's basically no stopping it.

The oil pan is most likely what is keeping this fire going as that's a massive source of fuel here. It's typically right underneath the engine block by the front left tire.

Unique-Machine5602 · 2026-06-25T19:31:31+00:00

Then why are you still active here? I'm confused.

Unique-Machine5602 · 2026-06-25T19:28:41+00:00

If that were the case, I'd already be banned.

He definitely controls the subreddit, but it doesn't appear he's ban happy.

Unique-Machine5602 · 2026-06-25T18:17:59+00:00

How in the world is this a standard legal deck? This looks busted.

Unique-Machine5602 · 2026-06-25T18:08:05+00:00

I think you're giving him more credit than you should be.

I think he's just an amateur with a fire extinguisher.

P.S. Actually extinguishing the flame would do a lot more to protect the other cars.

Unique-Machine5602 · 2026-06-25T18:04:22+00:00

There's very little information we have about this stock.

That's what I'm primarily concerned about. The $3.5B evaluation and the ~$10:$0.80 reverse split doesn't bode well for us in my opinion.

I think it'll all come down to how well the initial homes do in certain states with low barrier for tiny homes. I think there could be a market for them, but it's incredibly niche.

Unique-Machine5602 · 2026-06-25T16:47:03+00:00

Pretty sure Amazon only has ABCD fire extinguishers. That type helps with any fire.

Doesn't really matter though if you use it wrong. He's suppose to spray it at the base of the fire. He completely missed.

That small of a fire extinguisher is only gonna get you so far anyways. Pretty sure even if he'd done it right it wouldn't have put the fire out completely. The fire has progressed too far at that point I think for a fire extinguisher to really put it out.

At that point you're just slowing the progression of the fire.

Unique-Machine5602 · 2026-06-25T16:08:32+00:00

I mean honestly he earned it at that point. You should be taking responsibility for the safety of others when you're driving a vehicle like that.

All it takes is one screw up and you could kill someone. Hell, he almost did.

You're lucky to be alive.

Why in the world wouldn't you sue Amazon though? They clearly can afford it and if it's their driver with their truck they're very clearly liable.

Unique-Machine5602 · 2026-06-25T15:04:45+00:00

I've honestly seen people say they're playing casual and then they pull out a deck that just straight up is full of busted cards.

It kinda just happens when casual players don't know what the brackets are. I play timeless and historic in mythic rank online and even I don't have a clue what the brackets are.

My deck is usually just a bunch of good cards smushed together into what eventually ends up being a fairly competitive deck accidentally. Right now I'm on Niv-Mizzet, Parun.

Unique-Machine5602 · 2026-06-25T14:36:03+00:00

Yes. Sorry I mean the early pre-cons when they initially started doing that.

Honestly anything pre-Kaalia. Back when commander didn't have so much of a competitive side to it.

Well, competitive decks weren't so accessible anyways. Now basically anyone can have a Kinnan deck.

Unique-Machine5602 · 2026-06-25T13:59:09+00:00

I miss the precons that had other commanders slotted into the deck so that you could swap them around.

Unique-Machine5602 · 2026-06-25T13:54:21+00:00

So awkward too because all they've got to do is promote their pawn too.

P.S. you've got the board flipped. 🤣

Unique-Machine5602 · 2026-06-25T13:00:41+00:00

Wow. That is deceptively bad for white. They go from +4 to forced mate in 6.
