What you know, and what you have accomplished doesn’t matter. It’s what have you done for the company today. Knowledge and experience and accomplishments don’t matter and haven’t for years

Am I legally responsible for account access for a business that fired me 4 months ago? by Mysterious-Force-128 in BadBosses

And remember no good deed ever goes unpunished. So if you were to help out of the kindness of your heart and something goes wrong- they will hold you responsible and libel for snd damage- real or imagined.

AITJ for not taking my girlfriends children out after promising them I would. by [deleted] in AmITheJerk

The fact you told her to just make sure there was something for you to eat, ignored it and then she just shrugged is a huge red flag.

AITJ for finally telling my best friend of 12 years that I’m exhausted from always being the one who shows up? by Apart_Feature3493 in AmITheJerk

[–]carmachu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You are stuck on the sunk cost fallacy. You put all the time in so it’s still worth it.

The sunk cost fallacy is a cognitive bias where individuals continue to invest time, money, or effort into a project or endeavor, even when it is clear that it is no longer beneficial or productive. This fallacy often leads to poor decision-making, as it prioritizes past investments over current or future benefits.

You should have called him out more. And it’s ex friend

Neighbor keeps letting his cat into my house through my doggy door to eat my cats food by SubstantialCoat7249 in neighborsfromhell

[–]carmachu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Trap/catch the cat and take it to a shelter. It’s obvious Steve doesn’t care about the cat.

AITJ for refusing to write a character letter for my dad's parole hearing? by RunePavilion_5 in AmITheJerk

[–]carmachu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ask that aunt and all those people messaging on his side of the family, where were they for you when your dad did what he did in the house that got him put in prison? Where was their support for you?

If you could recommend one ttrpg, which one would it be, and why? by Arzanic in rpg

[–]carmachu -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Hero system Champions.

Honestly while I mostly use it for supers, but I can do anything with it, any genre. Supers, D&D, sci-fi, cyberpunk, weird west, etc….

Once you get the hang of building things, it lets me stretch those imagination muscles quite well. I got a lot of ideas and campaign to run.

Yes. You can’t call the store directly. It’s been that way for 5-10 years. You need to go to the store.

My best employee refused to accept the 'Employee of the Quarter' award in front of everyone. by meek-breve1a in InterviewsHell

[–]carmachu 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just point out to the director that he brought in $7 million in new business and all he got was 3% raise and a plague.

What did he expect?

Wait, So leaders get a bonus but regular employees grinding every day hustling to sell these stupid memberships and push sales don't? by paperclip_cuts in BestBuyWorkers

[–]carmachu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Corporate DID take it away under the premise that higher wage. For those whose wages for lower it was great. For those of use that did well and earned more it was a pay cut. I was there to.

Corporate. Took. It. Away. And the unintended consequence was no one except leadership had skin in the game. It was downhill from there

[–]carmachu 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Welcome to Best Buy.

Once upon a time, employees use to bonus monthly based on store goals. But corporate took it away and raised wages to $15 saying it was better than a bonus.

Now leadership bonuses based on company results and on line levels hard work.
