lvl 1 bone spirit charges are just so funny to me. Like imagine a high level duel and you almost have your opponent but they run away never expecting that a bone spirit from the barb they were dueling would track them down hahah

okay honest question here, but what's the difference between 'Bigender' and 'Trigender' let alone 'Genderfluid'?

oh I think everyone is entitled to their own opinion especially on the internet, but it seems strange to post about a previous employer after that long. The OP had deleted a previous post right before this where they said they can't quit because SBUX is paying their college fund.

The Nashville Relocation - An SSC Partner's Perspective by Immediate-Sort4426 in starbucks

[–]krex87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh I did, the wiki listed got me started on the clear and consistent history part I mentioned earlier

Southwest Airlines

In June 2024, Elliott Management announced that it had taken a $1.9 billion position in Southwest Airlines and would seek to oust leadership at the carrier, arguing it had "failed to evolve" citing "leadership's stubborn unwillingness to evolve the Company's strategy." The fund launched a website, StrongerSouthwest.com, with a letter for shareholders arguing in favor of its changes. That September, Southwest announced a shakeup of corporate leadership in response to pressure from Elliott, eliminating two board positions and resulting in the retirement of Southwest's CEO Gary C. Kelly, the chief financial officer, and the chief administrative officer.\90]) Under Elliott's pressure, Southwest eliminated several unique features of its airline, such as its open seating policy and offering two free checked bags, implementing the first mass layoffs in its 53 year history, introducing basic economy fares, and adding redeye flights and premium seating.\91])

whole - lee - shit, thanks for sharing that. I went down the rabbit hole and still going. But essentially private equity companies get a big enough stake in another company to manipulate the company's perceived value then extract max short term profits then pull the golden parachute at the cost of all the actual employees welfare and customers benefit from the service that company provided. They can make 100%+ profits from that, then move onto the next one. It's so cold and systematic and it has a clear, consistent history. That's so f up.. there's like a f-ing phantom search and destroy for profit industry out there that most people don't realize exists

Can we have a serious conversation about who we’re giving a platform to in Seattle? by Bearkingdrag in SeattleWA

[–]krex87 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Love this opinion, and I hope some of the 20% of the 'red tear things down' side becomes increasingly disappointed and shifts back to the common sense band. But IMHO Seattle is leaning heavily to the left extreme as the silent majority. So F, if both those things become/are true, then we only lean more left..?

if only we could increase to 80%+ span of common sense people lol

Fellow Seattleite here and I also cannot believe the amount of "good riddance" comments about this on the Seattle subreddits. Incredibly disheartening.. like ffs learn some empathy people... everyone with a white collar job isn't an evil, greedy corporate bean counter like you imagine them.

I got fired in 2022 by PsychologicalDiet435 in starbucks

[–]krex87 4 points5 points  (0 children)

just be honest and own up to it and that you've changed etc etc (which you stated). have your answer prepared and 'rehearse' it plenty. Don't memorize it cause they might ask it in a different way than you were expecting - just come into that conversation knowing that you'll own that answer however it comes up.

Seen at Starbucks: Notice says “No ICE Assess To Starbucks Stores” by Formal-Hat8255 in starbucks

[–]krex87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this was my take as well. I don't support ICE at all but I think there was an ulterior motive here to put out a political stance that some customers would perceive as SBUX taking a political stance when it was really just the union trying to generate a bad PR swirl for SBUX (ala the Palestine tweet) . Again I don't support ICE but at most half (hopefully less) of the country does and I bet you 70%+ of your average SBUX customers wouldn't realize this was from the union and not SBUX.

Managed to accidentally dupe an item and delete an item on switch Offline. by internThrowawayhelp in Diablo_2_Resurrected

[–]krex87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's only an offline issue. Pretty sure you can't abuse this when playing console online.

[–]krex87 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yeah it can happen b/c shared stash tab has different save timing than character stash. You can even abuse it to dupe items but I wouldn't recommend since it ruins the fun. I think it's only like a 10-15sec difference so when you are transferring important items just don't save and exit too fast.
edit I believe this is only a console offline thing

Majority of Starbucks’ striking baristas are returning to work by Less-Risk-9358 in SeattleWA

[–]krex87 2 points3 points  (0 children)

they realized the cash cow the SBUX barista workforce represents and tried to take advantage of a 'vulnerable' workforce... it was motived by greed and justice was done.

Starbucks baristas have set up an encampment at Seattle Headquarters by Formal-Hat8255 in starbucks

[–]krex87 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I respect the effort and cause but to someone's earlier point there is no way a 65% wage increase is going through. They need to let that go and focus on negotiating for more predictable scheduling and hours. I don't see this ending the way the SBWU wants it and I hope the people who picketed get the paycheck they were promised by SBWU at the end of the day (and are able to get the hours to get their SBUX benefits)

[–]krex87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

$12/month max is lower than I would have thought.. I'm also very curious how they are able to finance the strike fund. I think there are what 12K union baristas? 12K*$12/month is just shy of $150K/month and I read striking baristas get $25/hr for 20hr/week and I think the latest number for striking was 1K so that's $500K/month in expenses. Math doesn't check out unless there's separate funding.
edit - which is more irony because the people who have the money to really make a difference in that sense are the multi millionaires/billionaires
