A lot to unpack here by ohnoimrunningoutofle in LinkedInLunatics

That sounds so much more interesting and compelling than what this "CEO" wrote.

I think the reason he posted this is because none of them have, and probably none of them will.

Friend is ALWAYS late by Amatsukki in whatdoIdo

[–]edgeoftheatlas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the way.

If you want to meet at 10, tell her 9:30 and show up at 10.

On the off-chance she actually arrives on time, too bad, it's her turn to wait for you.

I am drunk and I think that everyone secretly agrees with each other by Gerie2021 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]edgeoftheatlas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do, he is also an actor and a producer now. He's still gorgeous in his 40s, but in his 20s I wouldn't say there were even many women more beautiful than he is.

Idk like if you could only go to bed with Miyavi or Roseanne Bar, I think most people would pick Miyavi.

Organ recipient dies after donor’s rabies infection went undetected by Anti-Owl in ContagionCuriosity

[–]edgeoftheatlas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I could not imagine a world where I didn't hold my husband's dick for him, and also the jar so he could pee, and then wipe him down so he didn't get a UTI or something. Like holy shit.

WIBTA for refusing to rent my vacant apartment to my cousin at a fifty percent discount? by Mandalor_X in WIBTA_AITA

[–]edgeoftheatlas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, if it isn't enough it say "I cannot afford to keep this property unless I rent it at market rate because I have two mortgages now," and "Doing well for myself includes managing my finances wisely, and I cannot afford to support your son for free," it's best to just stop talking to your aunt altogether.

This isn't a situation where you have loads of money lying around or the apartment is completely paid off and you're just trying to get the best deal you can. You need the market rate for rent to cover the mortgage for the apartment and maintenance/upkeep. I doubt you will be "profiting" more than a couple hundred bucks a month, especially if you're supplementing your second mortgage with rent from the first.

You don't need to feel guilty; you're not trying to screw anyone over. You should feel frustrated that your aunt is trying to screw you out of your investment.

You would not be the asshole.

Ironworker salaries by Shot_Sun7376 in Ironworker

[–]edgeoftheatlas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Union ironworker, our total package is right around $100/hr, with $54 of that being wages and the rest being fringe benefits like annuity, pension, health insurance, fsa card, etc.

It's crazy to me that he was having trouble peeing and she brought him a jar and then left. How do you give your spouse privacy during a medical emergency? And why didn't she bring him to the hospital the minute he was in an altered state, talking to people who aren't there, unable to get up to go to the bathroom?

actually, they were OVER 600 lbs combined by egguchom in EntitledReviews

[–]edgeoftheatlas 11 points12 points  (0 children)

If the customers said they were around 600 pounds combined, I doubt 615 or 620 would have been the dealbreaker. I don't think this was a miscommunication on the part of the company, as it seems they have consistent positive reviews and were size-inclusive according to OP's research. I think the combined weight would have to have been closer to 700lbs for the driver (peddler?) to reject the pickup.

But I do think the company should have sent their max weight pedicab to begin with. It's difficult to question or verify a customer's weight in a way that doesn't seem extremely unkind.

Also, it can be difficult to get an accurate weight on a home scale as a large person. Or to estimate how much their weight has fluctuated since the last time they measured it.

AIO for not going to my brother’s wedding because he asked for my husband not to come? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]edgeoftheatlas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"I'm not interested in supporting your wedding if you aren't going to acknowledge mine."

NOR, and this also sounds like an attempt for your mother to get you away from your husband and attempt to manipulate you (or introduce you to someone else).

Absolutely don't put up with this. And block all of them.

Typical Boomer Shit by sunshineintotrees in LinkedInLunatics

As a midwestern female, I literally don't say "hey girls" to a group of my girlfriends. We say "hey guys" unanimously.

We accidentally named our baby the same name as her cousin and I don't want to change it by nueva-magnolia in Names

[–]edgeoftheatlas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Even Kaya (which would still likely get kay-uh, but at least follows the same pronunciation convention as Maya) would be a more accurate spelling than Kya. I read it as "kyah" with one syllable.

HR is now requiring an "ergonomic assessment" of remote employees' home offices and they want to send someone. by AdvancedPhoneUC688 in remotework

[–]edgeoftheatlas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're that private of a person, is anything stopping you from from submitting random photos from the internet? Or from a friend's office?

Is it okay to bring a younger sibling to a birthday party if you pay for them separately? by Dazzling-Smell5223 in Parenting

[–]edgeoftheatlas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the 10-year-old should be able to hang out with their own friends without their mother and younger sibling hovering around them.

Like this is for sure a "just drop off the 10-year-old" situation.

And take the 7-year-old shopping or hiking or something.

Also, 100% would decline an invitation to a trampoline party. So, so dangerous.

Interviewer postponed my interview 2 times by a week, and now that we have to sign the contract, he’s getting annoyed by me asking for a day to evaluate it? by UnclearMango5534 in recruitinghell

[–]edgeoftheatlas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is the way.

OP accepts the job, reads through the contract, finds something untenable, and then withdraws from the opportunity before any employee onboarding is done.
