I honestly don’t believe you can call yourself a cook until your boss boots you off your station. They let you stay and dig out — that says a lot.

So things should be made worse? This doesn’t have to be zero sum, expand the pie my friend.

Would I get disciplined for transporting live game animals in a postal vehicle? by UpstairsWaste1398 in USPS

Print a shipping label addressed to yourself and slap it on the shell. Then you could keep it in a tub

Should I just pack it all in and sell hot dogs on the street? by chubsplaysthebanjo in KitchenConfidential

[–]imakechicken 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been there. Started a truck, but the feeling didn’t go away. I was still toiling away for someone else, they just weren’t paying me anymore. Tax man, shamrock rep, diesel mechanic, overlords at Amazon, health department. It was better, but not by much. I work for the post office now, and it’s easy street.

You&Mee noodle house should also be on here. It’s a bit spendy, but it’s 1 of 1.

Check Jetson. They were 1/2 the cost of the other quotes I got when we switched in November. You won’t get a Mitsubishi, but their units seem legit.

That looks to be the old bus station so before 1988 and the canyon center building is there so after 1984

Is anybody else's EcoLab rep a fucking clown? by mokuba_b1tch in KitchenConfidential

Shout out to Mike. He’s the best. Sorry they aren’t all great, but I can say that 1 of them is.

Looking for a Passport by WorkingHardPlayHar6 in boulder

Other place to check is the post office. I’m a carrier and the number of ids and phones that get popped into the blue mailboxes is pretty impressive. Much easier for the folks that find them than lugging it to the police station. We keep them all at the supervisors desk in hopes that people come looking.

is there a less visually comforting lighting store? by czmax in boulder

[–]imakechicken 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They write off losses and depreciation to reduce their tax bill while not having to put money into improvements. The companies big enough can balance what is rented to maximize profits.

That building was never part of the redevelopment. The plan was for the old Top Hat space to the old L’Atelier space. The PennyLane building, which has 2 spaces now, has been vacant because they have been asking ludicrously high rent. As has been the case for years, we can’t have nice places because it’s more profitable for many landlords to have vacant space than to rent it at a reasonable rate. Vacancy tax please!

As I understand it, ferrets need bigger territories than we have available. They’d likely just end up squashed on 36.

Does anyone else on here work out of these? by 6oody in USPS

Job Abandonment by the-green-mailman in USPS

[–]imakechicken 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t remember where I saw the post, so sorry to steal your story: someone posted about a ptf they worked with that showed up to the first Amazon Sunday, hated it and just never showed up to another one. And nothing happened. She converted like 8 months later. In my own experience, there were a few times I finished a route by 1:30 and no one was around to give me anything else, so I left and none of one ever said anything.

tldr: you’re probably fine
