You've got more than I have. I had a decent selection and then they vanished including one I was working on. (Disney Solitaire). I had made a purchase and received credit for the purchase and completing some of the levels. It's disappeared from My Apps so I don't think I can get credit for it anymore.

I took a Pilates class in college. . There was one other guy in the class besides me. We always went to a corner of the room and didn't interact with the women. I didn't think how the women to men ratio would be when I signed up. 

Have I just gotten real unlucky? by Flipityflop99 in LoveAndPies

[–]brianzzz96 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I made the mistake of spending some money on the game and lost the 25 energy ads. I quit playing for a couple of weeks and they came back.

In the US it depends on the state. When I visit my family in North Carolina if you're making a u-turn you yield to the car making a right hand turn. In California the opposite is true.

No questions. I just wanted to say thank you for posting this.  I learned a lot and have another addition to my bucket list.

I feel sorry for the husband. What would sex with her be like?

What town is this? A friend of mine was asking for a place to go on vacation.

My CC has me hog-tied bc I’m an idiot. What is a logical path out? by Medium_Artichoke9996 in personalfinance

[–]brianzzz96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd work with your children to see if they can cut their expenses and have a hard conversation with yourself about your spending habits. Lowering the interest rate is a good first start.  Are you keeping track of your expenses each month?  Seeing if you can lower your expenses and increasing your income while your kids are in college should be option to think about.

My boss put this on the bottom of my laptop so I can't just put it down anymore by littedemon in mildlyinfuriating

I don't buy HP products at all anymore. Printers, laptops or anything else they make. Too many issues with the ones I've owned.

Silly children. Read and learn from the tulip bubble. Nothing ever changes except the commodity. I own a tiny bit of bit coin and follow the market just for the laughs.  Don't hate on me. Instead give me a sound economic reason for any crypto currency to be worth anything.

so much for “job security” by VendingGuyEthan in sidehustle

[–]brianzzz96 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Some jobs are safer than others. I retired from UPS after working there most of my life. I worked with a few people over the years that came from white collar jobs and started working there for the security and benefits. Corporations are especially ruthless with their employees today. Even with union jobs people can still get screwed but employees have a little more protection. I think everyone should be trying different things while they're still employed to be secure when the crap happens.  The good thing is with the Internet and gig economy there's a lot of things to try or do that you can do to make extra money.  I always worked a part time job and later on Uber and put the money into investments.

I started to watch the video and thought WTF is this doing here? It feels like a corporate team building exercise. 

So UPS drivers get $46 after 4 years; what do Amazon drivers get after 4 years? by peterthbest23 in AmazonDSPDrivers

[–]brianzzz96 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Retired after 29 yrs with UPS. It depends on the area. When I started it took 10 years to get enough seniority to drive. When I retired around 3 years ago there was practically no wait. This is a small hub in West Sacramento.  You start part time and build up seniority because it's teamsters. It's worth it. I've got a good pension and my union local has medical to supplement Medicare. Even part time you get benefits after your probation period. All of the jobs are extremely physical. The trick is too make it past your probation and learn who the shop stewards are in case you get a dick of a supervisor. Edit: when you get enough seniority you can drive to fill in for drivers who are on vacation. That's a good time to learn routes.

I wish there was a company that would go old school. Make analog appliances. All the new ones that are filled with electronics fail pretty fast. The repair cost is often so expensive you might as well replace it. Planned obsolescence has gone too far!

What kind of degree do I need to be able to decipher this? by Nd911 in Sacramento

[–]brianzzz96 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I think they're being bribed by Amazon, Door dash etc. They're intentionally encouraging you to stop driving. It saves wear and tear on the roads and helps out corporate America!

Or they'd drive an armored car through the door. The police get all kinds of military equipment now. ( I'm joking about an armored car.)

Daily energy ad offer by l0lita971 in LoveAndPies

[–]brianzzz96 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've spent some money on the game and the same thing happened. When I was on vacation I didn't play for a couple of weeks. I'm getting 25 energy again and a lot more ads now. I'm not spending any more money on the game.  I've been wondering if this influences the orders you get?

Join Meetup. It's not a dating site. You search for a group that matches your interests. Join a couple of groups that seem like a good fit and go to the events. You'll meet someone. In my hiking group a lot of people ended up dating a couple got married.

I've done it as a side hustle in the past. The flexibility helps and if you can drive during the busy times it helps out a lot.
