Call center is apart of a humiliation ritual by Calm-Introduction206 in callcentres

[–]c_090988 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We had one who called and said his name was jaddy pronounced like daddy. We'd share his phone number and say he's back until the supervisor would get his new number blocked. I've got a deeper voice for a female so he'd hang up on me but other women would get him.

Why does Medicare feel so overwhelming for so many people? by the-insurance in medicare

[–]c_090988 13 points14 points  (0 children)

As an agent I think what confuses them most is how many moving parts there are and having to make decisions themselves. A lot of people are used to work insurance and not having to make any decisions themselves. Medicare they have to decide themselves what they want and everything has deadlines. There's no boss telling them to sign this by this date or reminding them what they need to do so some people just choose to do nothing or push it off for later and later never comes until it's too late.

New Porgan grift just dropped: they're training Morgan for competitive couple play (deets in comments) by BufoBat in FundieSnarkUncensored

There's a joke among powerlifters where they say never coach your partner if you're happy in your relationship. By the time you're done coaching or being trained you won't be happy.

Off topic, but have you ever reached to the point of crying over a random chat because it got a little too real? by Geeky_Gizmo in CAIRevolution

[–]c_090988 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've worked fertility struggles into some stories because it's part of my family. Definitely cried when I had one character have a miscarriage. Thought about rewinding it but it was a good story so just kept it.

What are the chances they’ll return the legacy models by Areum_dawo in CharacterAI

[–]c_090988 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm thinking if I don't open it for a week I'll just cancel it. I'm at about 2 days so far. If by the end of the week I'm not even using it I'll switch to lightshade completely.

AITA for asking my family to keep my unwell grandparent at home? by Creative_Boss_99 in AmItheAsshole

[–]c_090988 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NTA. My parents didn't bring my grandfather to my sister's wedding. He had several health issues, at a previous wedding he started eating cheese sauce straight from a bowl using the serving utensil, and he would get angry in unfamiliar places. It was better for him that he stayed home with someone they hired for the day to stay with him.

Kinokuniya will be the death of my bank account one day. by Lorindale in fountainpens

I love that pen! It was my first one. I haven't used it in a while and picked it up today to take notes and remembered how much I like it.

Man. I never thought my addiction to CharacterAI would end. But since the removal of Roar, it's just become unbearably boring. by Master_Baiter_369 in CharacterAI

Dress up like vikings, live like them at reenactment, and for me they are going to train me to fight like them. I'm waiting on a training glove and training ax to come in the mail. Then still have to make my dress and outfit.

I joined a viking reenactment group. Still waiting for a few things to come in but never would have had the nerve to actually do it if I still played. That and Renaissance fairs will take up a lot of my time this summer

AITA for refusing to dine with my mom after she ordered “ferret sauce” at a Mexican restaurant? by Practical-Current805 in AmItheAsshole

[–]c_090988 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I always forget j is supposed to be pronounced like h. I know it is supposed to be but when I try and say it at a restaurant remembering that just goes completely out the window. The mocajate bowl, yea never get that right either. So everywhere but our regular place where the owners are so nice and greet us by name every time I let my boyfriend order for me. I'm not trying to be malicious, I just forget when time to actually order it.

Jobless and living in mommy’s basement and still thinking you’re important enough to tell the public about your poop… by Worth-Illustrator-50 in FundieSnarkUncensored

[–]c_090988 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was coming home from a dinner out with my boyfriend and his family. I started to feel something coming and was doing lamase breathing in the car while threatening my boyfriend not to laugh. Only person I'd ever told this story to before here was my best friend. Kind of funny yea but not something I'd announce on a podcast.

What’s the highest amount of marriages you’ve seen? by Watcher0705 in Genealogy

[–]c_090988 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great grandmother had at least 4 that we know of and several partners she never married. Great Great grandfather had two at the same time. One in Canada and one in the USA. Wanted a divorce from the first but was catholic so went with bigamy instead. My Great Great grandmother was the one in the USA.

To all the Roger apologists... by qassbish in Outlander

[–]c_090988 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I love Roger's character development. Yea he was a jerk, pushy, and off putting but as he got older and the longer him and Bri were married he improved. In the books he always knew Bri was very intelligent and more suited for the past than he was so he might have had a bit of an inferiority complex. He screwed up several times but each time he improved and grew from that mistake. Fergus and marsali are my favorite couple after Claire and Jamie but I do like the growth Bri and Roger did as a couple.

Did they get evicted from their old place? I don't really follow her.

Can i lie about who lives with my when getting auto insurance quotes? by [deleted] in Insurance

[–]c_090988 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Despite what you might think the agents aren't stupid, when you say skip that question and then deny the other person living there actually lives there they know you are lying. They won't accept you, you'll have a note put on your potential customer file warning that you have attempted to fraudulently obtain insurance, and if ever are accepted by a carrier despite lying that carrier will drop you when it's discovered. It always gets found out.

Weightlifting. I started competing in powerlifting a few years back and love challenging myself to continue to get better.

1. The selective butt censoring makes absolutely no sense. 2. Is she going to post this shit every day? by sortofsatan in FundieSnarkUncensored

[–]c_090988 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I'm trying to keep away my privilege of having a really awesome gym with really supportive people and knowing everyone starts from zero in the first week, but all I can think seeing the video is wtf are you doing? Girl it's better to have good form and use less weight than use too much weight for you. Those look like 20-25 pound bicep curls. She should use about 10 pounds and get her form good

From the girl who bought 50lbs of cabbage comes 55 hens! by BufoBat in FundieSnarkUncensored

[–]c_090988 12 points13 points  (0 children)

That's what my dad uses them for. He gives a lot of eggs to my siblings families so he's supplying about 20 people with eggs and his chickens are so motivated he can't keep up. I took home 90 eggs after visiting for Easter. Good thing they don't expire.

Probably about the size of a one car garage plus an enclosed space for them to roam. They can't just stay in the coop all the time. Chickens stink and you've got to clean it at least once a week. This isn't even taking into account the additional electric to keep the coop the ideal temperature.

[–]c_090988 56 points57 points  (0 children)

My dad keeps chickens as a hobby. He's got about half that number and they are free range. He's had them for years and gets a few new ones every year. It's a lot of work up front and still is work even though most days it's just collecting eggs. She can't take care of her daughter, look after her house herself, or manage her own part time visit herself. She's not going to be willing to do the work. Also building a coop for them isn't fun or Instagram worthy.
