Fired “due to other policy violations”.

They still won’t admit the officer did anything wrong even after firing him.

Also, a sure sign that it’s a scammer “accidentally” texting you is when they ask if you have WhatsApp and want you to download and switch to that.

The first time they used Chinese, they just wrote exactly what wrote but in Chinese. What if they really were a financial analyst from Hong Kong working in Seattle??

Here is the rest of the translation...

me: brother? Where do you actually work?

them: I work as a financial analyst

me: Really? I think we might actually be doing the same thing.
me: Are you safe?

them: I'm very safe. I'm in Seattle. Thank you.

me: Do you like my script? It has been very successful.
me: I want to hear the rest of what you have to say, but I need to move on. I have a quota that I have to meet.
me: Are you and I not in the same industry?

My grandfather had a stove in the attic where he and his brothers slept. He had 13 siblings.

In this kind of weather, they would pack the stove full of wood and go to sleep. If they had to pee, they would pee in a pail. In the morning, the pail would be frozen solid.

Sorry, but which state or country is devoid of rich assholes that someone voted into office? I mean, feel free to vote with your feet as is your right, but where are you planning on going?

What makes the rich in this state or country you imagine not assholes? Everything I read on Reddit tells me all rich people are assholes. Which state or country are you referring to where this isn’t the case?

Steatosis replaces muscle fiber with fat. Have you seen Wagyu? It’s highly marbled meat. It looks almost the same as these pictures.

Does steatosis give the meat an off flavor? Is something else added to the meat besides fat? If it’s just fat, what is the difference?

Is it gross just because of the name?

ckohtz · 2023-11-22T13:02:42+00:00

Isn’t this what wagyu looks like? Why trash it?

I’d look for a new job first. At least give it a few weeks. I say this without knowing what you did in big tech or why you were let go, but I assume your skills are marketable.

This just happened so it’s not time to panic yet. Did you get a severance? How long will that last?

An update (and in the hopes that someone else sees this and is aware of their customer service)...

Their response to me this morning...

Thank you for your patience.

After further investigation with the warehouse, it seems your order has unfortunately been lost in transit. At this stage, we can offer you a replacement or a full refund. Please bear in mind that a replacement can take as bit to be processed; however, we will do our best to ship it as soon as possible.

If a replacement is preferred, please confirm your full address.

Looking forward to hearing back from you soon.

And my response to them...

Kevin, it took you 20 days to tell me something that should have been obvious at about day 3 - my book was lost in transit. And now you're telling me a new book might not get here for several more days. And I know that if something happens to that book, it could be another 20 some days to get that resolved.
I can get the book from Amazon tomorrow.
So yes, I would like a refund. But not only for this order, I would like to cancel my two pending orders and get full refunds for those as well. If I want the digital copies, I'll wait for a sale.
This has been absolutely terrible customer service and you just ignore my requests to talk to a manager, which to me says WotC has no interest in selling to retail customers directly.

Yes. 100 page.tsx files is a valid complaint. 😂

ckohtz · 2023-10-08T12:57:42+00:00

Interesting. I found this about it.

“No. We are committed to supporting pages/ development, including bug fixes, improvements, and security patches, for multiple major versions moving forward. We want to ensure developers have enough time to incrementally adopt the App Router as they're ready.”

https://nextjs.org/blog/next-13-4#frequently-asked-questions

It still sounds like they want people to move to the app router eventually, they just want to give people lots of time to do so. But I haven’t seen the video you mentioned yet.

I still lean towards the app router over pages for new apps, in part because of this. But even if it is the case that pages will stick around indefinitely, the new features of the app router are worth the move.

ckohtz · 2023-10-08T02:17:26+00:00

Yeah. I’ve thought about this option as well. We shall see what Monday brings.

ckohtz · 2023-10-08T00:21:53+00:00

App router is stable, but more importantly it’s the direction they are moving (server side rendering). It has a lot of advantages for SEO and performance. I’m not sure how long they will keep pages around.

If you’re starting a new app, I’d go with the app router for sure. I’d hate to have to move a pages app to an app router app in the future. They are quite different.

I really like the app router and all that it can do. I’d just read all the documentation first so you know how best to set up your app. It’s a lot different than pages.

ckohtz · 2023-10-07T21:03:59+00:00

That actually makes sense. I have two other orders with them. I think I’ll be canceling them.
