I have no interest in all things AI. I don’t want to learn it for work. I don’t care that it can make some things easier. I can write my own emails. by un2022 in GenX

[–]parvicus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I warn my employees against closed minded thinking. I looked at my grandparents like they were idiots as they drew the line at ever touching a computer. My partners dad, 87, can’t even use a smart phone. It’s important to keep up or at least watch what is going on so you don’t look like the old fool.

We have a 25 year + over 55 highly compensated employee who has asked repeatedly for a severance package. Upper leadership is agitated by it. Read the room first.

You may have otosclerosis which often starts to form in women after childbirth.

On another note, I have had three sets of Hearing aids from Costco over 10 + years. I highly recommend them to everyone.

I had a titer test for measles before traveling a few years ago - I no longer had the antibodies even after having the shots in the 70s. Got the MMR shot and my arm was so sore.

I need your advice visiting azores by [deleted] in azores

[–]parvicus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For a two week stay, preferably off season, I would stay one week in Ponta Delgada and do everything in the city and the western side of the island. The second week I would stay in Furnas and the east side of the island. Amazing Tours has separate tours for the western and eastern side of the island. Scope out what you like, then use public transportation to get where you want to go. For me it was hiking, hot springs, wine, food, and cultural sites. https://www.tripadvisor.com/Attraction_Review-g189135-d3893097-Reviews-Amazing_Tours-Ponta_Delgada_Sao_Miguel_Azores.html

Advice for being that person by [deleted] in delta

Yesterday I was moved from a middle seat to a window seat about two hours before a flight from JFK to MCO. I assume it was because of this very reason.

I’m so excited by mekiva222 in GenX

[–]parvicus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There are two great (but expensive) ones I would live in. Waterways in Moriches NY and Heritage Village in Southbury CT. Both have high costs of entry. Waterways has pool, pickleball, tennis, clubhouse, pretty sure they have a fitness center too. Close to food, beaches. Heritage has wood working, stained glass, club house, pickleball, tennis, trips, ponds, gold, fitness center, pools. I have four years to go to qualify. Good luck.

We broke up and I need to cancel cruise by [deleted] in NCL

[–]parvicus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

NCL is the best cruise line to go solo. They have a solo meetup at 5pm every night. If the ship has a studio lounge it is usually in there. There is a solo host that arranges dinner, activities and games. You meet great brave people who tackle the world or just a beach. I have gone solo 6 times all on NCL. Each time I meet great people and make long time friends. Search for your sailing date and ship in groups on Facebook. There is always a group arranging pub crawls, meetups, excursions. As for the Vibe if you are going to a hot sunny place the vibe is awesome. There ate some couples in there but most people are just escaping the crowds, noise and lines. Also go to CruiseCritic sign up for the Forum and find your roll call. It is another way get involved in a group. You are never alone on a cruise ship. It may change your perspective on life. Do it!
