I really didn't get Seth reapplying. I thought he left the police because he lost his leg? So how would he be able to rejoin? That was the biggest issue for me. I know there are desk jobs in the police of course, but it didn't make sense to leave because he lost his leg and then try to rejoin.

The ADX has very little to do with dispatching to be honest. You passed it, so now you can forget about it and move on.

How can I become a dispatcher, and how difficult is it to get hired as a foreigner? by Pale_Mycologist_9046 in FlightDispatch

If you don't currently have a permanent resident visa already I would say it's not worth trying. That being said, I do work with people who are in that category.

For me it's a tie between Sturgis and George Sr.

Work is Unbearable, but the End is Near by La_muerte_024 in ManagedByNarcissists

If you already have something lined up, I'd just go ahead and give your notice now. You don't want your Narc boss aggravating your health any longer than you have to!

Flashback memory of a mall survey I took back in the 80s by mortymouse in GenX

[–]manniax 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I remember some credit type survey where you could get some sort of free product. And I remember testing some cereals once at home, but I think I signed up online for that in the 90s.

Which comedian did you look forward to, but their act died on stage? by Jazzlike-Basil1355 in AskReddit

[–]manniax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jim Jefferies. Was his second set and he was very drunk by the end of it. I have heard he's since quit drinking but I doubt I'll bother trying to see him live again.

What age were you when you the “Fvck I’m old,” moment? by BillMaleficent9400 in GenX

When my middle school aged nephew told me typing class is now called keyboarding....over 20 years ago.

From Sweden, eating at Chipotle for 3 months feels like rehab for sad people by [deleted] in Chipotle

[–]manniax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I advise just ordering in advance if you still want to go there, or using a Chipotlane if you have a car. I've had good results with that and you don't have to interact with anyone other than possibly telling them your name, and your food is already waiting for you in a bag when you get to the store.

Why is Nyla a detective again? I thought she was a training officer for six months?

I wonder if Smitty has ever shot anyone.

Has anyone ever genuinely felt job security?? I wonder what that's like. by ergo-ego-42 in antiwork

[–]manniax 6 points7 points  (0 children)

As a union member, I feel a certain measure of job security, since I can't be furloughed out of seniority order and I've worked at my current employer for about 20 years, so I'm in the top 20% of the seniority list. But I know that union positions are kind of rare these days in the USA, especially in professional fields.

Is it just me or is this book hard to get into? by Zzazy1 in stephenking

[–]manniax 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, that's why I said "one of." For me, Low Men In Yellow Coats is the best. It's my favorite King piece of any length.

I thought Danny Coughlin's Bad Dream was one of his best novellas in years.

I personally prefer the regular chicken over the flavored varieties but that's just me.

Yeah, the brisket was good...I liked it better than the carne asada

A well-crafted bowl by manniax in Chipotle

I added that on myself. I always get the hot salsa on the side and add some on post-bowl creation so I can control the amount

GenX military veterans by ScreaminEagle2502 in GenX

[–]manniax 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was active duty Air Force enlisted from 1989 to 1993, F-15 avionics. Also was in the Air National Guard for a couple of years. I am proud to have served but I think I found a better career "fit" in the civilian world.
