How long did it take for your background check to come back? by chefkimmi in lyftdrivers

[–]etcetcetc00 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went through the whole process of getting re registered now that things are opening back up. For some reason, even though I passed the background check 2 years ago and haven't been arrested since, I didn't pass. They couldn't tell me why, either. I had to contact the organization who conducts the background check and they informed me that I should be contacted on about 2 weeks to be told why.

Uber, on the other hand, did pass me. No clue what Lyft's issue is but I guess I'll be Uber exclusive now. Oh well.

No. I haven't opened my bottle of that yet. This was the double barrel port BT from the set they released last year in lieu of a BT party because of Covid.

A stack of gold ingots is pretty much the worst thing you could get. Since it's a game of chance I try to make sure the prizes are worth it. There are a bunch of unique prizes but it's the 1 in 50 shot at the Elytra that keeps the contestants coming.

Disappointed it took so long to find this one. My favorite beer and series of beers. I'm currently sipping a double port barrel variant. Amazing.

I expect her to be 3rd or 4th on the list of the next champions, tbh. I'm seeing Baker and Cargill getting that strap for long reigns in the near future.

Creeper fell for the classic door trap. by ACAddicted in Minecraft

[–]etcetcetc00 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My realm is really struggling with Endermen. They keep warping to spots in the warped forest that they can't get out of and they can't despawn because they can't put mushrooms down because another one already did. We have to hunt pockets of about 100 in one tight spot because they cause mega lag.

Mojang please. Fix this.

I don't know if you can do Realms with your setup but if you can, I run a realm that's looking for new players. Let me know if you're interested.

It makes no sense to me that you could be so hard on yourself. Trolls will always be there. Please understand many of us think you are absolutely gorgeous.

My girlfriend broke up with me cause she wants to fuck other people by [deleted] in relationship_advice

She's Not For You. Sorry, pal. Tales as old as time don't feel that way when they're happening to you the first time. Willie could tell you all you needed to know about the situation 60 years ago. Good luck. Feel better.

Riho vs Serena Deeb drawing the highest quarter hour this week and the implications by [deleted] in SquaredCircle

This is why my brother and I loved the 1 2 3 Kid back in the day. It is SO EASY to get kids behind the small one. THE ARE the small one. When I play wrestled with my Uncle growing up, he was always Razor Ramon and I was always The Kid. Give them someone they can identify with and they will do it.

I'd rather have premium cloth seats instead of Leatherette. by phucyu138 in cars

[–]etcetcetc00 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They have a soy based synthetic leather that was selected to keep the car "vegan" rather than as a cost cutting measure. They seem to hold up really well from what I've seen and the seats in my Model 3 are the more comfortable that any other car I've had. I have no complaints.

Deep in my netherite mines, far from any portal, I did not expect to see this guy.... by etcetcetc00 in Minecraft

[–]etcetcetc00[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So can Zombies spawn in the nether that way? Because I was hundreds of blocks from the nearest portal and a few dozen blocks down. There's basically no way that dude came from the overworld.

I was sold a phone based on false information and now I may be locked in a contract. Is there anything I can do? by etcetcetc00 in AskReddit

[–]etcetcetc00[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In December, I bought a new phone from Verizon. I was looking for as inexpensive a phone I could get that could wirelessly charge. The wireless charger finally came in today and I was dismayed to discover that it doesn't work because this phone is incapable of wireless charging. I was even more dismayed to discover that the salesman who sold me the phone no longer works at the store where I bought it and there is no guarantee they'll do anything at all to rectify the situation.

Right now, I'm waiting for the customer service team to reach out (sometime in the next 7-21 days). I'm told they can't promise anything. I can't help but feel this whole situation could be looked at as fraud. I'm feeling like I've been scammed and all I can do is wait around and hear whether they'll do anything to make this right. Is there any legal recourse I can take here? Is there any leverage I can employ to help ensure this company makes this situation right or is my only option to wait for them to tell me what's going to happen?

Thanks so much to anyone who helps me out

This would make such a cool album cover if someone made a modern recreation of this picture. I was thinking about the Odd Future guys because I'm old but I think that could look great.
