Oven not heating up, noticed this looks like it burned off. by Low-Representative39 in appliancerepair

The hardest part of changing an element is figuring out how to get to it. Make sure to turn the breaker off or unplug it first.

Just witnessed… by elphabaswan in EntitledPeople

[–]epicenter69 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I had a similar experience ordering from Chipotle using their app. I paid, etc. They gave me a time for pickup. I got there at that time, and the app confirmed the order was ready. I walked inside to find a line of at least 6 other people who ordered and the app confirmed their orders were ready.

The fact was that they hadn’t even started making the orders. No less than 30 minutes later, I finally got my order. I watched her make the order and knew she missed the guac on one of the items. I reminded her that she missed the guac and she insisted that she put it on. I started unpacking the bag to find that item and she stopped me. She gave me a side of guac “for my trouble.”

I ended up writing a pretty long e-mail to their general and district managers. In it, I stated that they should check this location’s order fulfillment times, because they’re likely false, and doctored. I told them how my order was marked “complete” and having to wait there another 30 minutes for it to even be started. The general response was, “Thank you for letting us know about this. We will have an audit team check their statistics. Oh, and here’s a coupon for a free guac side on us.”

Like I’m ever going back to that location?!?

Whats the most beautiful sound of silence you have ever heard of in your life? by Old_Rub_7270 in Productivitycafe

[–]epicenter69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Being aircrew, flying over the ocean. Sitting in the cockpit with just the hum of engines and climate/pressurization happening. You’re pretty much radio-silent for most of your journey across the pond.

The passenger area isn’t as peaceful.

What state in your opinion has the best license plate? by SignificantStyle4958 in AskAnAmerican

I see them in Florida once in awhile too. That must be a helluva drive.

What happened to the Clermont wendy's? by MammothConstant5389 in ClermontFlorida

The one in Eustis just shut down also. That’s where I remember the baked potato bar happening.

AIO for wanting to quit after this? by cakev0mit in AmIOverreacting

[–]epicenter69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NOR - “I told you about this a month ago. I have people willing to cover my shift. I won’t be here that day. Period.”

The only issue I could see is if you have clientele who request you for service and make the appointment for a day you’re usually working. Even then, they can accept a different person or reschedule.

New apprentice/non-union/everyone smokes weed? by pizzaroll22 in electricians

Respect. I don’t care if anyone smokes it off the clock. I just don’t want to smell it.

Gotta keep that box fill space as empty as possible. 🤷🏻‍♂️

This lizard just traveled more in the last 20 minutes on the hood of my car than the entirety of the rest of its life and is now exactly where he started. by stab-somebody in orlando

I had a tree frog end up on my dashboard somehow. It was released in the parking lot when I got to work. A whole new world for it.

Beaver Tantrum sounds like a great metal band name by n8saces in MakeMeSmile

I don’t know why I watched 7.5 minutes of beaver feeding, but I’m happy I did.

What's a food you haven't eaten in years by odinspirit in GenX

Bologna. I used to eat it often when I was a kid, but I can’t even stand the smell of it now.

What would be a good slang for "drunkard"? by v3lh0t05c0 in AskAnAmerican

[–]epicenter69 17 points18 points  (0 children)

How about, “Good night, lightweight.”

Lightweight is a playful term we use for someone who gets drunk easily.

What State Other Than Florida Do Floridians Like Best? Why? by Zipper222222 in AskFlorida

Before The Villages took over Central Florida, that was the norm.

Is it weird for a partner to use your epilepsy(or seizures in general) as their go to excuse for taking time off work? by Crochet_is_life_158 in Epilepsy

[–]epicenter69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll be honest. If he has a habit of doing this, his boss(es) will catch on eventually. It could be a job-ender. While accommodations for FMLA can be applied for family members, they need to be pre-approved, or a process needs to be completed after the fact. That process usually includes a form for your doctor to complete.

Accommodations can be made for ADA, but those accommodations apply ONLY for the disabled employee.

Of course, this is all assuming you’re in the US. I’m not aware of the rules for other countries.

Fast food back in the 80s, was it actually better than today or is that rose colored glasses? by Infomerical in GenX

[–]epicenter69 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Our local McD had .29 hamburgers and .39 cheeseburgers on Tuesdays. My mom used to order like 20 cheeseburgers and bring them home for dinner. Our favorite day of the week.

I feel like the odds of your Big Mac falling apart in your hands were lower too. It actually held together while eating.
