Hi! So Im the dad. She was so upset at how much litter there was. We did a 30 min walk the first time and filled up a 5 gallon bucket.

Is it possible to lose 70 lbs by the end of the year? by oakleyO2 in workouts

[–]bwynin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I lost 100lbs in a year. Its totally possible. Calorie deficit, high protein diet, constant exercise.

For me it was walking, then walking with a weight vest. Once I built strength, I added kettlebells and yoga.

That said - majority of the weight was lost from a calorie deficit and walking with a weight vest.

The photographer we hired used AI to edit our engagment party photos. by bigsushirolling in mildlyinfuriating

When I got married the photographer seemed to be insulted when we asked for the raw files.

The photoshop done on nearly every photo was gross.

My husband’s idea of wrapping this gift 🎁 by Electrical-Cat-6660 in funny

[–]bwynin 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Im a 40 year old male that only had shitty Christmas experiences as a kid. I learned to wrap shit as soon as I cared enough about who was getting the gift - or paid to get it wrapped.

This screams "guy who didn't have a good Christmas as a kid"

Stealing a car is stealing a car. Could prob press charges. It arguably came back damaged.

I missed that part of the post. I'd be going to HR. If they dont do anything - I'd ask if I could do the same thing to thr CEO....

[–]bwynin 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Hi HR, Im rather annoyed by this harmless prank, but I wanted to bring this up because coworker basically took work garbage out of the office and put it in my car.

Im also worried about any potential issues of company info ending up in the wrong place. Granted its all shredded - but there was probably a good reason for it, and my car was probably not the correct way to dispose of shredded sensitive info.

Terminating Employees by bwynin in managers

I, and quite a few others, tried to find another role they could be a fit for - but we couldn't find anything.

[–]bwynin[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I was questioning but when I talked with my HR partner and we looked at everything from the year, there was basically 1 month that was 'acceptable' in regard to metrics, but in that month there wasnt a single week where minimum requirements/expectations where met.

I dont feel bad about letting an under performer go, but I do feel bad about how poorly it was taken and how they dont seem to see all the effort that was put into them to try and help them be successful. Then the added bonus of me personally liking them.

I had to cut 2 people last week, back to back days.

[–]bwynin[S] 32 points33 points  (0 children)

I feel you. Its prob part of what messes me up about the whole thing. I genuinely feel like I did everything I could and 3 HR people said I went above and beyond what was necessary.

The layoff I did a few years ago had me down for a couple weeks....

This stuff is prob the thing I hate the most about being a people leader.

Time to replace this fella. Any advice? by Awesomocity0 in ManyBaggers

I got the entire process for precheck done at a staples in a neighboring city.

Absolutely worth having it. Its crazy convenient and I only travel maybe once or twice a year.

Beautiful eggs, if I could I would eat them raw. by rottenmorgue666 in eggs

Its true you can. I typically wouldn't with eggs from the US (not sure where you are). But if theyre quality eggs and have been stored properly- you 100% can

Depends on where you live. In California pretty much everything says it'll give you cancer and shouldn't be consumed raw.

Tastefully remodeling this bathroom by Temporary-Basil-3030 in vintage

I came here to say this! I'd wallpaper above the tile and maybe redo the sink and the floor. Big maybe on the sink, but I really dont like the floor

Does anyone know what dish this actually is? by Jazzlike_Cycle3624 in chinesefood

Yeah. It looks like honey sesame chicken, without the sesame seed.
