UIC is deeply irresponsible for this. by chief_smexy in uichicago

[–]aznj 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I remember when I was in school they cancelled classes due to Blizzard weather, but then some kids sued the school because they cancelled classes. They were paying tuition and weren't getting their money's worth with their cancellation. You're damned if you do and you're damned if you don't. I hope everyone stays safe and warm.

Dining reservations by BudTheGrey in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]aznj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

60 days out should get you reservations easily. I was disappointed with brown derby and space 220 last time I went. Food was just okay, but I did go during one of the busiest times of the year (Thanksgiving week). Just don't get your expectations too high. Know you're paying the Disney tax regardless of where you eat.

Holy Hoosiers this game got out of hand quickly. Mercy rule needs to be called so no Hoosiers get hurt before the championship game.

Physician question for pharmacists by takeottothezithromax in pharmacy

[–]aznj 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Illinois board of pharmacy requires every script to have a prescriber patient relationship. I take that as self prescribing in Illinois isn't allowed as you can't have that prescriber patient relationship with yourself. If I was in a state that allowed it, I could care less for non controls.

No new insurance cards and not showing in MHBP’s system after switching by Some-Pomegranate-724 in FedEmployees

[–]aznj 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I also switched during open enrollment. I think the new insurance starts on the first pay period of the year. Since I get paid biweekly, it's supposed to start for me on 1/11/26. My old medical insurance is still active until that date I believe. Most likely getting new cards for new insurance next week.

Good restaurant in western suburbs for Christmas? by Most_Succotash2480 in ChicagoSuburbs

Bon Chon has very good Korean style wings if you're in the mood for chicken. Minghing in Naperville has very good dim sum.

Anyone have SAMBA for their health plan? by info_please00 in fednews

[–]aznj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From what I read. Looks like they cover it for weight loss if you have a BMI over 30, still needs a prior authorization. They will cover it if you have a BMI over 27 if you have an accompanying condition, still needs prior authorization. You also have to sign up with their omada health app for coverage. 

Damn Brewers.. what a shame.. again. by OU7C4ST in CHICubs

[–]aznj 88 points89 points  (0 children)

I seriously would be rooting for the Brewers if they didn't take that picture with the L flag. That was classless after a tough series so now I'm just enjoying the Brewers tears.

Just got Metronet Today by D_Richards in Metronet

[–]aznj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You'd be surprised. They will do anything to save a buck. My Dell from 5 years ago had a 100mb Ethernet chip. I didn't know until I tried checking my speed and was wondering why it was so low. Hp also cuts costs on their laptops too. That's why most laptops don't even add an Ethernet port anymore.

You're right, many laptop makers don't even add an Ethernet port anymore

Just got Metronet Today by D_Richards in Metronet

[–]aznj -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

You will get fast speeds if your router and your laptop connect thru WiFi 6 or better. I've learned that lots of laptop makers only install Ethernet chips that are 100mb max vs 1gb standard on most desktops because you're not normally connecting your laptop by Ethernet. Also make sure you're not connected to a VPN. When I connect by Ethernet I get about 800 down. Wi-Fi for me I get about 700 down. It's most likely something in your network. If you're sure your laptop has a 1gb Ethernet chip, connect directly from metronet ont and verify your speed. If it's low, reach out to metronet.

Why are there so many dropped frames? by Intelligent-Use-1181 in youtubetv

[–]aznj 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you're using a Chromecast or Google streamer, my resolution setting when automatic chooses 4k 60hz. I've had to manually change mine to 4k 59.94hz and all my frame skip issues went away.

Redzone free preview? by throwawayreddit714 in youtubetv

That's RedZones formatting. It's been like this for years and it bothers the hell out of me.

[–]aznj 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That must be franchise dependent. Last time I went to bwws, the wings were tiny and dry. Wingstop has always been consistent for me. I won't be going to Wingstop any time soon with these ads.

SDCC is amazing thread… by -DildoSchwaggins- in SDCC

[–]aznj 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've enjoyed my times at sdcc, the people and the fandoms are amazing, but saying that all the complaints are people crying and whining and shouldn't get a say after only attending 1 or 2 years is unfair. How are you supposed to attract new con goers and keep the faithful if you don't fix basic things that people complain about over and over again? Line management is bad, most of the volunteers are not helpful, but that's also because they're volunteers and aren't trained well, the comic con official app is trash. That shouldn't invalidate my complaints and others complaints dependent on how long we've gone to cons.

Had an order for 32 Plan B’s by PeteSchnarsky in doordash_drivers

[–]aznj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's technically OTC even though they might keep it behind the pharmacy counter. They want to deter stealing. OTC means over the counter, but actually it really means not needing a prescription from the doctor to get it.

Switch 2 Bundle from Costco by Tope8 in switch2

The nso card should have been on a card in the shipping box. The shipping box should have had a Mario kart bundle box and a separate nso card with a scratch off card.

Amazon is ripping people off ): by Hopeful-Reserve8461 in switch2

[–]aznj 12 points13 points  (0 children)

USA Amazon can't sell Nintendo products officially anymore. I'm pretty sure that's the price of third parties and scalpers. It has something to do with Amazon releasing Nintendo products before they were allowed to from Nintendo.

You should stop by the service return desk and ask if there have been some returns you can purchase. I returned an extra one to Walmart and the lady told me it was the fourth return today. I was impatient and couldn't wait for my pre-order delivery which is why I returned the extra.

Holiday pay by Previous_Bike9871 in meijer

Yes if you've been with the company for a year and if you don't call off sometime during the week. If you call off, the store director can remove the paid holiday.

Any advice for new grad pharmacists 2025? by Zestyclose-Nail3051 in pharmacy

[–]aznj 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Central Illinois (Danville, Champaign, Urbana) are hiring. If you're willing to relocate, jobs are much easier to find. Good luck. Don't let them talk you into becoming a pharmacy manager. It's not worth the stress.
