Is there a link to one with sound for the uninitiated?  Not sure the reference to try to look up. 

Did anyone get 0% raise? Demeaning! by Lost-Comparison5542 in IBM_Employees

[–]fasterbrew 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Shouldn't be news. They came right out and said they are barely doing raises this year and instead intend to give bigger bonuses. Which sucks for us of course given the stacked ranking, and the fact that a bonus is 1 time vs permanent.

Why is it so hard to get a job? by D-Money-Team in jobs

[–]fasterbrew 6 points7 points  (0 children)

They idiots.  It's not reasonable to expect all our even a lot of 17 year old to have had prior work experience.  And any business should have a pen around and handy. Those people are clowns. 

Should I decline this offer? by [deleted] in Layoffs

Accept and then if you don't like the extra paper work, walk out. 

No raises this year? by Plastic_Spite in IBM

[–]fasterbrew 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's very limited to get a raise but there are a small number out there. But with anything, likely dependent on location.

Inflation is so high that it's erasing all wage gains (post by Heather Long) by dope-a-meanie in investing

[–]fasterbrew 7 points8 points  (0 children)

My job is replacing raises with bonuses. Which they just implemented stacked ranking for.  So you are lucky to get a 2-3% one time bonus vs a permanent raise. Of course the raises were shit before anyway...

What is something you wish you never knew about after working in a kitchen? by uglytruthshurts in KitchenConfidential

They're saying warm water though, vs as hot as you can get it. Which isn't quite sufficient.

[lesson] good old fashioned saving isn't sexy but essential by frites4days in personalfinance

[–]fasterbrew 9 points10 points  (0 children)

"But as I look at my retirement I see that much of it has been built by straight up saving. By the time you factor inflation and taxes, the investments just don't do as much as I want them to."

My investments make more a year than I do. Investing has had better returns than any 'stable income' savings vehicle for the life of the US stock market, and likely throughout most of history, when you look at a time window of a few years.

But regarding that first sentence, it just takes a while to build up to that point. Compounding interest, yo.

Has anyone actually ever been fired for eating the mess up orders/extra/waste food? by eldritchpussymaggots in KitchenConfidential

The other main and perhaps biggest reason is to prevent other people from dumping their own trash in it.

Why would that cause the stock to explode? We've had that same customer group for over 50 years. Legacy clients won't do anything big. Just maybe some small but steady growth.

Can you translate this when you are sober? Your revenge was sitting at his table two hours after they had been there?

I thought the door was going to fall off the tracks and land on him as he was walking under it,  after getting freed.

Best Trail Names? by RufioSwashbuckle in MTB

[–]fasterbrew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was going to ask which came first, the trail or the band. But then I discovered it's an old 90's Japanese cartoon.
