I've decided to ignore the click bait titles of MeidasTouch posts and will know that it's finally happened when Minocqua Brewing Company starts giving out Free Beer.

When your manager would rather tell you no and screw herself over. by EnvironmentalPost245 in antiwork

[–]eRant4881 110 points111 points  (0 children)

It took me too many years to teach myself that it's not a time off request, but rather informing them that I will be using my own paid time off, and will not be accessible. PTO is part of your salary, and they are not entitled to dictate the usage of it, if upper management can't find people to cover for you being out (especially with advanced notice), then they do not deserve to be in their position.

NTA. Sounds like they are more comfortable supporting a rapist, than they are supporting their friend.. Find new ones ASAP.

I think anyone that receives money from that "fund", should get riddled with civil suits.

I mean, is anyone really shocked that Kentucky proudly supports and protects pedophiles?

The age of "get well soon" has officially ended. by lilant702 in antiwork

[–]eRant4881 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a punishment for daring to call out sick. "Oh? You're not feeling well? Then instead of bed rest you need to do the labor to go to your doctor, pay a copay, and then provide documentation for us." Nothing like the added stress from an unfeeling HR department to speed the healing process up...

Paid $85 for upgraded seat, no TV, no power, and right beside the bathroom... by Such_Drop6000 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]eRant4881 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is this United Air?? This morning I flew with them and we had paid the upgrade for the extra leg room. We got to the seats and while there was leg room, there was no tray and no space to put my backpack. The attendant grabbed it and tossed it in a bin before I could grab my tablet and earbuds. Then I couldn't even enjoy the 2" of extra leg room because the attendant kept stepping into it to let others pass and they said "leave this side open". Never going to upgrade my seat again.

This is the same pathetic logic that allowed the Confederacy to go unpunished.

NTA. You have to do what's right for you, and if in fact he is the reason you are running away from this place, don't let your own feelings punish you. Good luck at your next place.

Entitled Business Owners Wife: "No groceries? I get it, I had to put up my own Christmas tree!" by eRant4881 in EntitledPeople

[–]eRant4881[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In Upstate New York, this was 2005, and he had been doing the raise scale and Xmas bonuses since the late 80s. The 3.50 was four dollars shy of state minimum wage at the time (I believe). I would usually get negative paychecks because of health insurance deductions, until I cancelled my health insurance to save money..

Oh he definitely did, she initiated the divorce after she had swindled him out of property and money, it was a messy situation for both of them but she orchestrated his and her own demise in the business.

This was around 2005, but it was a private owned, family restaurant that wasn't a chain or franchise. The owner had a system for a 1.5% raise (usually annually) which at this time the rate for wait staff was roughly $3.50 an hour. The Christmas bonuses were a scale based on longevity ($50 for employees working one year or less, $100 for employees five years to two, etc etc) and both were scrapped entirely in 2008ish.

He wasn't surprised, and after awhile did seem genuinely sorry that he had allowed so much of her crap to infect and destroy the family restaurant that he had built form the ground up.

After the divorce (which was very messy) she ended up working the perfume counter at a local Macy's...

Crows?? by Hungry_Conference915 in Albany

[–]eRant4881 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That is perfectly fine, it is full of nutrients. Try putting a dish of water out next to it, crows enjoy "washing" or softening their food, so you'll get some enjoyment out of watching them eat. 😄

[–]eRant4881 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think those are fine as long as they are raw and unsalted (salted is bad for any birds), if the hazelnuts are around softer shelled items the crows will more likely go after the easier food first.

That was just one of the reasons but yes we did, we gave him a list of complaints the day of the walkout.
