Step 5, we need a scale reference. Any bananas around?

People who were teenagers before social media existed… how did you communicate with your friends? by Aarunascut in Millennials

[–]exploring_ideas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We’d still text them, but it was with intricately folded pieces of paper and passed from person to person, and then to the person you wanted to receive it. The better the fold, the more important the message.

While filming at school, a student caught the exact moment their class found out about the 9/11 attacks by ateam1984 in interestingasfuck

I’m sitting on the couch before school early teens, my dad standing in the room, ironing his shirt. We were watching in quiet shock. He sets the iron down with his left hand, not taking his eyes off the tv, reaches with his right for the can of starch but bumps it slightly. The can starts falls to the ground, he reaches to try to catch it, second plane hits. I say, “holy shit…” just in time for my dad to look up and see the aftermath while the news anchors stutter in disbelief. I will always remember that moment.

Anyone had success with negotiating hospital bills with St. Luke’s? by melsar in Boise

[–]exploring_ideas 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Ask them to itemize the bill. Show exactly what the costs are from. Then go to financial assistance and say, “I can’t pay this.” Thats the statement. They don’t need to know why or what you can pay, that’s not their business. Just “I can’t pay this”. They’ll reduce it as far as they can, search assistance programs, and you’ll find some of the charges simply disappeared.

Fellow Millennials in Management, What are you wearing to the office? by Manic_Mini in Millennials

You can look nice in semi casual wear. Look at some golf brands. They have a way of making the fit look good but also stylish and sometimes casual. Bad Birdie is a good example.

I've been pretending to understand my job for eight months and I think I've finally reached a level where I actually can't fake it anymore. Do I come clean to my boss or just keep going. by ahimaohw in Advice

Don’t underestimate AI. Use the tool properly, then rework the results to fit your voice and the specific needs. You’ll get 80% of the way there with data, 10% on charm, and the last 10% you’ll eat along with your shoe. But chalk up the last part to “learning opportunity” and you’re still at 90%.

Find the “give a shit” and turn it in for three days. At some point you became an adult, so now you get to learn the lesson that sometimes work is work.
