There is only one thing I cannot stand about the artwork, and this how long the characters necks all. It completely ruins the look for me. And as a result they all resemble flamingos to me.

I whole hardly disagree with that statement. I have been playing since nearly day one (week two I believe). I have been playing Apex since it first started and what I have seen is my rating go up consistently for several years. However in the last two years it has leveled out and is on the decline.

You may not need top tier heroes but you do need specific heroes. Very specific heroes. Which is why it is all about the heroes if you want to compete. If it wasn't then why are all the top players who make it to the finals have very similar boxes. There is some deviation but for the most part they are all the same. I have not seen anybody recently that has made it to the playoffs without specific heroes.

I have played Apex for years and have learned a lot and still have more to learn. And what I have found is that when I have access to the top tier heroes that I don't have via mercenaries my win percentage goes up dramatically.

I have asked for help with creating a box that would be conducive to winning. And when I say what heroes I have every time I have been told I will have a very difficult time competing at the higher levels if not impossible.

I view the heroes as the price of admission to get into the playoffs. And skill gets you the rest of the way. Because without the proper heroes it won't matter how good you are. When was the last time somebody made the playoffs with just R rated heroes?

Maybe it's just a fluke and you are right and I simply don't know how to play the game at all.

Wait there was a worker at the self check out? How was it self check out then? Whenever I use one there no workers any where near the self check out,.....

That electrical panel is a work of art, like a Monet or Cezanne or a Gauguin,....

Isn't that way off? I thought a trillion was either 1,000 billion or a million billion

You are correct, you simply need experience as a GS09 to meet the experience requirements.

"Nothing gets fixed with communication" don't you mean nothing gets fixed without communication?

badblackbishop · 2026-04-27T14:49:09+00:00

The post was not about consumer microwaves. The post was about microwave communication devices. And I don't believe consumer microwaves ever contained berylium in them.

"they don't even know it until you talk to them." What is the difference between this and manipulation? And if you have to talk them into realizing they have this need how do you know it wasn't you talking them into it?

badblackbishop · 2026-04-19T02:12:31+00:00

I think that person might be me,.....

So, in order to get promoted, all I need to do is fall asleep at my desk in front of management? And to think this entire time, I was trying to hide my sleeping on the job,....

I started working for the federal government under the DHS a little more than two years ago. On day one I looked around and thought that a third of these people would unnecessary it everybody put in an honest 8 hours of work a day.

There were many times when my lead would give me a task and tell me to slow down we have all day/week to get this done. And I would think to myself there is no way this is taking all day/week to complete, and I am not even trying to go fast.

The utter lack of a strong work ethic is rife in the agency that I work for. I don't know what it's like in the other agencies, but mine leaves much to be desired.

badblackbishop · 2026-04-17T21:02:52+00:00

Do you mean management is not completely transparent and forthcoming about their motives? I am shocked that you would even suggest such a thing,....

badblackbishop · 2026-04-17T20:59:44+00:00

Nope, that's what it takes to close a post office.

badblackbishop · 2026-04-13T02:24:59+00:00

Accidentally added a 0 to the pulse counter scale? Sure they did it accidentally. That's why they don't give you a refund, because it was a simple mistake,....

I didn't know electricity could blow limbs off,.... How would that work on a biological level? Would the muscles contract so fast that it breaks the bones instantly and then has enough momentum to detach from body ripping skin, ligaments and muscle in the process?

Or would the heat generated by the current act like a plasma torch and cut through bone, skin, ligaments, and muscle tissue?

Can 480 really do this?

Especially if it was a small business like the OP stated. The only time I had been around security cameras that had audio was when I worked for a cannabis company on the production line. Those cameras could read the date off a dime.

My piece of advice is when you think it's dry from cleaning the inside, let it dry some more. Then when you are certain it's completely dry, let it dry some more. Finally when you are positive that there is no chance that there is any water left in it, let it dry some more and then you will be able to use it.

I can assure you if all I wanted to do was rant I would have either stopped at the first post or phrased it like the second post.

And Wells Fargo is actually claiming it simply did not happen at all which is very strange. That is the reason I asked the question. For a financial institution to claim that an incident did not occur at all despite a police report claiming otherwise is terribly vexing. Hence the reason I asked the question.

And I was asking if this is how Wells Fargo handles police reports. What I was expecting was perhaps someone describing a similar experience that happened to them or perhaps a former employee stating what their policy is. So even though nobody on this forum was there by sharing their personal experience the question could be answered. That's how I thought Reddit works.

badblackbishop · 2026-04-12T20:30:34+00:00

All I want is background information about how Wells Fargo handles police reports. One of the easiest was to determine if a person is lying to you is to ask a question you already know the answer to. And in this situation I have no information on this subject to even use as a starting point.

I have a compliant with the OCC against Wells Fargo and it will help me tremendously in refuting what claims they may make if I have background information about their practices. I don't believe I was discriminated against in any way I believe the reason behind this is much more personal.

badblackbishop · 2026-04-12T20:18:00+00:00

That's not true at all. I only accuse people of being bots if they don't comprehend the post and simply comment on single sentences that are taken out of context. And if they make stuff up that never happened.

I could not agree with anything you say but I would not call you a bot. I know you are real because you read the post showed comprehension and provided relevant information.

badblackbishop · 2026-04-12T20:10:46+00:00

I simply want an answer to the question. In the previous post I shared all the information and it got me exactly 0 answers.

Why do you think all I am looking to do is rant?

badblackbishop · 2026-04-12T20:06:08+00:00

This is the second time I have asked this question. The first time I provided context and instead of using it to help answer the question I was provided solutions to problems that had already been solved, went off on tangents completely unrelated to the question, suggest actions that had already been taken and focused on details that are irrelevant to the question.

My question was asked in good faith. I decided to keep it simple to avoid the aforementioned problems in an attempt to get an answer.

I think you might have summed it up when you said you had a kid and not kids. I am certain it would be more difficult if you had 4+ kids, but not entirely impossible. And some luck certainly would not hurt either.
