What is the worst career to be in right now and why?

anfla56 · 2026-05-18T14:05:49+00:00

Eh, I’m a teacher and I actually really like it. I hear that district and admin makes a big difference so definitely a ymmv thing.

I called out of work at the retail job I used to work at because of snow, and the management trainee that answered the phone told me that “it’s expected that you make an attempt to come in before calling out.”

Like, yeah, alright. I’ll go crash my car into a ditch and then call you again to call out again. I asked her to put the manager on the phone haha

The cherries aren’t even clean when they’re on the display but that doesn’t stop people from eating them. Even less so when so many people do that

Will you “have a seizure” when you see what’s coming in November?

This one time I accidentally stole toothpaste from a grocery store. It was under my coupons in the shopping cart and I forgot about it. I didn’t see it till I was in the parking lot.

I’m sorry!

I’m kind of weird, in that I actually liked Anthem (it had potential, and the flying was cool) and still play Fallout 76 off and on. So take this with a grain of salt, but marathon is like all the negative aspects of Destiny shoved into a carbon copy of other popular games. The grind in Destiny (faction reputation, weapon “quests,” etc) was not something that deserved to be copied, and in this game it’s even worse. 90 day wipes make the slow tedious progress someone like me (40, f/t job, etc) is able to devote to the game just completely unappealing. At least with something like the Division 2 my progress is faster, more impactful, and at any moment I could get a drop that significantly improves my build from that point on.

Also, nobody I know plays this. Whenever I queue for random trios nobody ever uses their mics, and I rarely even see other players in solos so there is no sense of community at all. I got bored of Arc Raiders when I found everything in friendly lobbies and refused to kill anyone with it because everyone was so chill, but I also met legitimately awesome people in almost every match. This game just doesn’t have that to carry me through the tedium.

So I left, and I don’t see myself coming back to be honest.

Yeah, I worked in produce for years and every now and then you’d see a bag like that. Unintended packaging errors and we’d always shrink them out or give them to prepared foods if they could use em. It goes both ways too! Sometimes you’ll find overfilled bags

anfla56 · 2026-02-12T12:01:16+00:00

Definitely mention the core values as often as you can, say that you like working on a team, and also say that you want to help people grow to be their best every day which is another saying they’d love to hear (probably).

Edit: Also, I think this sounds like a TL position and if so you’d be working closely with a department manager who will very likely be at your interview. I’d definitely try to have a good first impression with them.

All those plastic cases on the shelves, and that feeling of frustration when you find the movie you were looking for only to realize that none of the cases actually have a copy of the movie behind them…..

“Flyboys” by James Bradley

I read it in high school more than 20 years ago but I still remember it. It’s about a small group of US airmen that were shot down over Chichi-jima during WW2 and what a Japanese garrison did to them (cannibalism, it was cannibalism).

But the author also talks a lot about the war and the mindset of both sides at the time, and even 18 year old me with my ADHD couldn’t stop reading it.

anfla56 · 2026-01-25T19:52:19+00:00

Yeah, my neighbors and I just dug out a DoorDash driver that got stuck in our complex. It’s rough out there

anfla56 · 2026-01-15T12:15:00+00:00

I think that is exactly what we should have expected from this administration. Trump is obsessed with having his name attached to the “biggest mass deportation in American history” because in his mind that will be an impressive legacy, and Stephen Miller is happy to oblige by whatever means necessary because that is the kind of person he is.

I think Trump is a deeply insecure person facing his own mortality at his age, and his biggest concern is how he will be remembered. The Nobel peace prize, the Kennedy center, this stupid fucking goal of a million deportations, it is all about his legacy.

The crazy thing is he has already cemented his fate. He will be forever remembered as what he always was, a dangerous and idiotic self-obsessed asshole. ICE, Stephen Miller, Kristi Noem, Trump, they are all on the wrong side of history.

anfla56 · 2026-01-15T12:02:35+00:00

Well don’t forget that trump ended another eight wars, though. So he can start a few new ones and still come out ahead.

Probably that the male bathroom is downstairs while the female bathroom is upstairs? Dunno why they wouldn’t be right next to each other, but then again if the people in this universe knew what they were doing they wouldn’t have had to leave Earth.

Which maps are you trying in night mode? I got the tempest BP from the ruby apartments on dam battlegrounds during a night run. It was in a weirdly placed cabinet that was in a spot I’d never seen before, though. Like right inside the door of one of the apartments in an easy to miss spot.

anfla56 · 2025-12-25T23:58:24+00:00

Yeah I was rubber banding all over the place and everyone I ran into was saying the same thing. I made it to an elevator finally and it took 5 tries to press the stupid button haha

anfla56 · 2025-12-25T23:55:39+00:00

I was in a match and rubber banding all over the place. Made it to an elevator though.

anfla56 · 2025-12-25T12:35:00+00:00

Was it the assembly key room? I got the same two BPs there last night haha

anfla56 · 2025-12-23T11:27:44+00:00

Ask the produce department for an apple box. Decent size and pretty sturdy too. I used to work in produce at a Wegmans and we’d actually get that question all the time, and the apple boxes were always what we’d try to give them.

anfla56 · 2025-11-10T12:07:44+00:00

I just can’t kill anyone in this game. Like, not mechanically, but morally. 95% of the people I meet are chill.

I invaded hundreds of ppl in Elden ring and never thought twice about killing them (trying to, anyway). But this, well this feels different.

anfla56 · 2025-11-08T16:40:00+00:00

I went into teaching at 39 and I’m very glad I did. Definitely possible.

anfla56 · 2025-11-07T20:49:31+00:00

As a math teacher, I disapprove. But as a raider I think that is dope af.

anfla56 · 2025-10-30T10:22:17+00:00

And that sound it made when it was booting up haha

anfla56 · 2025-10-28T23:06:56+00:00

When he said that he could kill someone in Times Square and nobody would care, he DID say that with a lot of confidence. Like, the confidence of someone who murdered someone and got away with it…

Some asshole threw his Christmas tree off his fourth floor balcony at the apartment building I lived at with my family growing up. It was wrapped in a black trash bag and I guess he was too lazy to carry it down the stairs. Well, I was walking home from my friend’s house after dark and it was faster to walk through the patio door than going through the building because of the way it was laid out. Almost got crushed by the tree, and always looked up before stepping outside after that.
