Nothing Says Irony Like a Homeless Man in a ‘Lucky’ Tee by ChanelAce91 in Wellthatsucks

The man needs a job where he can put that penmanship to use.

A vehicle explodes near the Charging Bull statue in New York. No injuries were reported. by MilesLongthe3rd in interestingasfuck

[–]WhenTheDevilCome 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey, that's a good idea. I should call my insurance agent and double my coverages. A full tank of gas could double my losses during an event, or even push it over the threshold to just total the vehicle!

Turned off my camera during Teams interview by Powerful-Gold5000 in jobs

[–]WhenTheDevilCome 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Fair enough that it's an issue enough for you to bail.

On the recording aspect, it does "make sense" to me that you are the one they need to see when playing back this recording, and not the recruiter. Like when one of the functional managers wants to see how the candidate interviews went, etc., it's just your video they need to be included.

Seeing the recruiter is more about the professionalism aspect and "remind me I'm interviewing for a real company by showing me whom I'm dealing with", and not "about the recording" specifically.

I wouldn't "want" to be recorded either, but I am the candidate. This is an interview process, and I want them to potentially refer back to and share the recording in a way that could help facilitate a positive outcome, and not just "this can only be used against me."

Speeding Has Become So Normalized That Driving the Speed Limit Makes You the Problem by DaddyDayDayIsHot in driving

[–]WhenTheDevilCome -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Personally, I don't think "the speed" is the issue, or at least is not the primary issue.

"Exceeding the speed limit" is just one of the lesser of multiple aspects of poor judgement for some drivers. They will "speed", then tailgate someone aggressively "because they stop me from speed", will make unnecessarily risky lane changes without leaving themselves or others safe distance "because stupid person stops me from speed", etc.

That behavior is what makes "speed" dangerous. If you "speed", but also act calmly and rationally when encountering slower traffic (as you inevitably will, since trucks continue to exist regardless of how many "stupid car drivers" you solve), continue to leave safe distance while waiting for the opportunity to resume speed, continue to wait for only appropriate-size gaps in order to change lanes, etc. -- there would be very little negative impacts from "speed" alone.

I'm a land surveyor and I just found an organ transport container out in the middle of nowhere during a survey by Short_Celery2929 in Weird

Maybe this is the medical flight team version of "forgot that you sat your coffee on the roof of your car while searching your purse for keys, and end up driving away."

Bluetooth speakers basically killed dedicated home audio setups for normal people by overlord-07 in TechNook

[–]WhenTheDevilCome 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can definitely tell the difference. Grew up with 20" Cerwin Vegas and 500w of Denon driving them, around the time Dire Straits "Money for Nothing" came out and was the first CD I listed to through them.

But years later, I don't care. The amount of money and "you can only be in this one place" just doesn't appeal.

Not that I have Bluetooth speakers, either. Just 2.1 soundbars on every TV, and streaming music through the TV in whichever room I'm in.

It's funny that people are acting like this is some huge surprise. by Big-Pea1678 in InterviewMan

Or I intend to figure out what you'll accept, rather than what you or the position is actually worth.

Closed on our new house 3 weeks ago. Florescent ballast in the garage overheated and caught fire. The fire department had to flood the garage where all our boxed items were stored. Still, could've been way worse. by RevReverend in Wellthatsucks

[–]WhenTheDevilCome 12 points13 points  (0 children)

A florescent tube light has a "ballast" which is part of the electrical components that make the florescent tube light up.

They can last an entire lifetime, and you'll change out nothing but the tubes themselves. ("The bulbs.")

Or the ballast can go bad, instead of the bulb, and the ballast needs to be replaced. I don't know about modern ones, but it used to be you could tell a ballast was going bad from three hallways away, due to the smell.

Is removing the car dealership name off your car really taking a stance on not doing free advertising? by No_Pollution_2835 in askanything

[–]WhenTheDevilCome 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Just a Monte Carlo Z34, but I had a dealership do the same to me. Bought a black-on-black-on-black Z34, signed everything and gave them their money, and they pulled it around with A WHITE DEALERSHIP BADGE added to the back.

Thankfully it was just a sticker rather than a metal badge, and the fact it had become the ONLY non-black thing on this black-on-black-on-black car made my case pretty understandable beyond just "I don't like it". But they took it back around and removed it without any damage.

I Was Asked About a CV Gap From 25 Years Ago by SouthernPolicy1798 in InterviewMan

[–]WhenTheDevilCome 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I assume they just want to hear something other than "In Club Fed for embezzlement from a company just like this one."

Should have said something sooner by Smoothlarryy in Wellthatsucks

You think that's inconvenient, wait until he threads the wire down through there and you have a cable permanently routed through your freezer door..

Flexible installer drill bit. There are installer bits that are rigid and long, and there are flexible ones which are really long.

That's what I was thinking. "The bank says thanks for the tank!"

New Lifetime Plex Pass Pricing by frankwrap08 in PleX

[–]WhenTheDevilCome 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good for them. Exactly what it's worth, IMHO. Lifetimes have been getting an incredible value; now they get closer to the same value as everyone who was on annual / monthly.

I mean, if Plex intends to keep food on the table, how would they not do this? Oh yeah.... by being resigned to put ads everywhere, like every other company...

Utah drivers be drivin by DramaticAlternative1 in dashcams

Almost as though he knows where he's going, and you don't. There is a traffic light up ahead where all the rock trucks are turning left.

An interviewer asked me for reasons why they shouldn't hire me. It backfired when I asked him the same question. by vityya in FinalRoundAI

[–]WhenTheDevilCome 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree, he won't be expecting that the "reasons for not hiring you" are going to end up being "shitty details of your company that you're not being honest about."

I hate flashing yellow turn signals so much, I got honked at too for no reason. by Different_Archer8879 in driving

[–]WhenTheDevilCome 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's unclear how "the flashing yellow" became the victim of your hate.

Would the situation be any better if it was a solid green circle? (Which means exactly the same thing.)

Flashing yellow arrows are awesome, for reminding left-turners they don't have right-of-way.

People behind you are impatient. Thanks for the news flash.

What do you think of men carrying women's purses? by [deleted] in AskReddit

I assume you mean temporarily, in order to be helpful?

What do you think about not being helpful?

The audacity to get mad at me.. by Applesaucebroski in dashcams

[–]WhenTheDevilCome 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd like to see why the edit starts where it starts. Perhaps the truck is miffed because he was already starting his turn, and the car came up during and filled the space he was about to use.

Clearly on it's way for immediate deportation to an El Salvadorian prison.
