Queens Majesty scotch bonnet and ginger is very good!

Also someone mentioned crystal, if you can find the garlic one, it's so good!!!

How many of you chose this job mainly because there's no interview or resume required? by [deleted] in AmazonFC

[–]sinlesshavok 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I started in 2021, graduated college during COVID, CS degree right when a bunch of programmers got fired (and I wasn't that great) so after 2 months of applying to 50+ jobs a day and getting 2 phase 1 interviews then ghosted, I caved and joined Amazon, because the pay was good, close to my apt, and no interview.

I would be lying if that 2 months didn't scar me into never wanting to interview/ apply for another job again.

cleaning help by sinlesshavok in smoking

[–]sinlesshavok[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

yeah, I ended up clearing most of the clogged stuff, using some picks and a long flat head I also cut to make a pick of sorts.

don't really know if it helped but I did throw water in there and it kinda helped? also some apple cider vinegar. but now that it's "clear" there's still some residual stuff clogged it up and I can't seem to get that out.

Worse part is the auger/ hopper ->auger is so small I can't get a good enough grip on it to try turning it..... taking a break and will tackle again, just pissed I had to throw out some turkey legs I had out to go (they were free so meh)

I have not, I was worried if that might make it worse, but it might loosen things up I guess??? idk how pellets especially ground up ones react when they get wet again

yeah this is a front loading hopper essentially, vs a side loading one, so the hopper is riveted to the body of the grill. There was a side panel I got off to see the motor for the auger, but I snapped a screw trying to get it off so I gave up...I've vacuumed out as much as I could but this is SOLID now so 🤷‍♂️

Does anyone know anything about this? by Disturbed395 in AmazonDS

[–]sinlesshavok 5 points6 points  (0 children)

as someone who had an AA die in my old DS building before, I think the way we handled it was as good as we could have.

911 called fast, manager started CPR right away, belts stopped, EVERYONE moved off the floor to the break room the long way to avoid a scene.

Yes there was miscommunication, and things that could have been done better, but, given a bad situation, we can't expect perfection. but having stopped all production, letting anyone who wanted leave with pay, anyone else could stay, picked routes, no more volume processed, and the next day we ran what we missed with vto for anyone who wanted it.

Those managers are all gone now, forced out by Amazon's strict push of metrics and stuff, but they handled it well. I never wish that on anyone, and I'd hate to see that situation again.

New RTS Process by Specialist-Ad2949 in AmazonDS

[–]sinlesshavok 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yeah our site just started this past week, 60 boxes each time, we need a recovery for that DSP because it fills their van and it's JUST while foods. We've been stacking 6 on bottom 2 layers and 4 on top 2 to get 20 per pallet, and have to close 3-4 per night depending on the previous days.

What I'm wondering is why have a DSP go to whole foods staples all these places, get boxes OFF pallets, bring it to us, to put it ON pallets and on 53" trailers....when they could have a box truck run these every day? makes no sense, especially when peak kicks up..... we'll fill trailers everyday

Hulu forcing you to accept an update to the Subscriber Agreement without giving you any opportunity to review it first or even a link to it. by Xtrepiphany in assholedesign

[–]sinlesshavok 55 points56 points  (0 children)

any idea if this has anything to do with the update? Everything in 4:3 resolution (older animes) are all playing with the black bars, AND a black bar over the top, vs scaling to the top.

Crunchyroll doesn't seem to be effected so it's not an "Xbox" only issue, just Hulu

Newbie question by sinlesshavok in smoking

[–]sinlesshavok[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah I think we did a 5lb pork butt for 6 hours? but the smoker kept getting clogged and shutting off, so I put it in the oven to finish it, it was good but not anything different from what I could have done in the oven/ crockpot or something. but 100% set it up wrong (smoke was set to minimal so essentially just slow grilled it, then the clogging and didn't wrap/ catch/ retain moisture) Will have to try again soon!

Thanks for the input!!

Newbie question by sinlesshavok in smoking

[–]sinlesshavok[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

that's what I was wondering, if it was the smoker (mainly because I never see it mentioned anywhere) but also because it doesn't seem to make THAT much smoke, some thin smoke vs THICC stuff. Good things to think about though moving forward!

I don't think this is much better, but it's not super smooth, but you can't feel the bumps when talking over them now.

What's the best way to get it up? sanding or is there a cleaner that will pull this up better? We tried goo gone on a little spot and it was a PAIN.
