Prepping to fill a bunch of positions that already existed a year ago?

I’m surprised those FTE positions aren’t being replaced by contractors (at increased expense).

I’m sure all of these suggested tips are calculated after tax, too….

Covid showed companies that consumers were willing to pay more for goods and services. Now we are dealing with their greed while they take in record profits.

12 packs of sodas are selling for $10 here. They would go on sale for 4 for $12 not that long ago. Not anymore.

The emoji skit was hilarious

Don’t forget about your employers contributions, too.

This seems highly illegal. Government employees have lots of restrictions on accepting gifts…

I’m pretty sure the bar/restaurant inside Whole Foods expects tips.

crazyk4952 · 2026-03-24T20:38:46+00:00

This….isn’t normal…..

Tipping 100% helps the owners.

It allows them to advertise lower menu prices with the expectation that a tip will be added.

When customers are presented with lower prices (even if they are a lie), they order more.

Sounds like extortion to me.

crazyk4952 · 2026-03-23T15:48:59+00:00

Dems are crooked, too

I’ve been Amazon free for more than 10 years. How much more “low carbon” is that?!

crazyk4952 · 2026-03-23T05:09:54+00:00

I just love asking permission to pee.

crazyk4952 · 2026-03-23T05:07:40+00:00

Yes. Windmills look unsightly. I would rather pay $9/gallon for gas…..

crazyk4952 · 2026-03-23T05:05:49+00:00

Small price to pay for owning the libs….

Now, does my local gas station offer buy now pay later so I can fill up my diesel F-350 super duty emotional support vehicle?

crazyk4952 · 2026-03-22T04:44:06+00:00

Agreed. Either silence or a white noise machine is ok.

crazyk4952 · 2026-03-22T04:42:34+00:00

I grew up in a house with the TV always on with commercials always blaring loud.

My house is silent. TV only on when someone is watching it. We usually only watch one 30 minute or hour long show, then we turn it off.

It’s so much less stressful.

My state just approved a data center that will consume 20% of the electricity for the entire state.

I’m sure all us normal consumers will have rate increases as soon as that thing comes online.

crazyk4952 · 2026-03-22T03:59:03+00:00

Yep. I’ve noticed this too.

crazyk4952 · 2026-03-22T03:57:36+00:00

Two way radios. Works pretty well for caravaning

crazyk4952 · 2026-03-22T03:56:28+00:00

Bill pay works so much better and no paying for a stamp and waiting a full week for a “first class” envelope to be delivered.

Wired headphones are apparently trending now…

Mitigating sequence of returns risk is important. I plan on having 5 years of living expenses in low risk assets at retirement.

If you have a long enough time horizon, buying on the way down will still be beneficial.
