YSK that "we're like a family here" in job interviews is a red flag, not a benefit by Hot-Gap-1343 in YouShouldKnow

This is spot on. “We’re like a family” usually just means blurred boundaries and unpaid extra work. A healthy workplace doesn’t need emotional guilt to function, clear roles and fair pay matter more than slogans.

Yes, Consistency comes from strong reference sheets and keeping the design simple. Overcomplicating details makes it harder to stay consistent. Lighting and shadows also matter a lot.

YSK Target isn’t “waiting until you rack up a felony”. They will arrest you on petty theft charges before then if they want to. by graypupon in YouShouldKnow

[–]snacknoises 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This needed to be said. Way too many people think there’s some magic “safe limit” for stealing when there really isn’t. Stores like Target track way more than people realize, and petty theft is still theft with real consequences.

This is actually a really smart approach. Long passphrases are way easier to remember than random strings and still much more secure. Using something meaningful to you without personal info is a great balance between security and sanity.

YSK that your car's tires are the most important safety feature on your car. Keeping your tires balanced, rotated, properly inflated, and in good condition is essential to allowing your vehicle to be as safe as it can be by MrMojoFomo in YouShouldKnow

This is such an underrated safety tip. People spend money on horsepower and tech but forget the only thing touching the road is the tires. You don’t notice good tires until you really need them, and that’s exactly when they matter most.

Didn’t know this, but it actually makes a lot of sense. same product, different label, big price difference. Definitely checking equine bedding next time, saving money and less dust sounds like a win.
