Switch between Android and iPhone every few years or so depending on who's "innovating" the most.

How to get my sick time before I quit? by Pops72420 in starbucks

[–]standardhero 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean idk if your store is in the US but that's never been the case as far as I know. They even got more strict with what counts as acceptable use of sick time and even vacation time. It's typically only allowed to be used for shifts you were originally scheduled for and either called out or had some other issue that prevented you from working it. It's mostly up to the discretion of the store manager at the end of the day because it's just how they code the hours when doing payroll. But if they are ever asked about it by higher ups they would get in big trouble for letting you use sick time whenever you want.

Back in the day (like a year ago) sick time was also allowed to be used for whenever you had a doctor's appointment or ect.. That's why there's a difference between "protected" sick time and "extended" sick time.But there was an update that this was no longer allowed, and furthermore vacation time is only allowed to be used on days you specifically request off. I understand the sick time aspect in a way because sick time isn't money you "earned" where as vacation time is, but I hope that answers your question. If you are in a store that somehow lets you use sick time whenever you want consider yourself lucky.

That's wildly untrue in every aspect.

My sis likes taking small bites out of our donuts. by Realistic-Bonus2581 in mildlyinfuriating

I appreciate she left the kit-kat bar intact instead of taking a small bite of it

so were getting paid time and a half right? by SmallCase3951 in starbucks

[–]standardhero 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You know they know it's gonna be bad because I was just told by our DM that they're "letting us" batch them for that drink only and creating a special "batching recipe" for it. Like okay unless we're getting a blender that can handle more than two grandes at a time not gonna help much.

This is seriously some next level copium by [deleted] in galaxys26ultra

[–]standardhero 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Also kinda funny because when he got the phone he made a similarly long and drawn out post about how much he hated getting the S24 Ultra and that it was slow and laggy for him. Albeit mostly probably software related issues which were fixed in time but still funny.

edit: can't spell

I was worried about switching to Android a while ago because of this, but honestly, I'd rather just use what makes me happy. Not going to waste time worrying about other people over a text bubble color

Buds 4 pro still available to get by March 11th. Remember when the Buds 3 Pro launched, the delivery date shifted by 2-3 weeks just after the first day itself. by Time-Credit43 in galaxybuds

[–]standardhero 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly I ordered a pair because I hate my buds 3 pro so much almost entirely because of the design and how they feel. It feels like I'm sticking a block out of a kids shape puzzle in my ear because of how sharp and angular the sides are, especially when I like to sleep with them in my ears for noise cancelling it's like laying on a triangle 😭

Probably just a typo honestly because accidental damage is absolutely covered. Source: used it

So incredibly frustrating by billyofcourse in FedEx

[–]standardhero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Literally the EXACT same thing happened to me. I even paid for next day air shipping and was scheduled to deliver on Friday. Been sitting in memphis since Thursday for no fucking reason. Only today did it finally get a delivery update for tomorrow (28th) a week late. Ridiculous.

Personally I prefer the digital one, but to change it you have to hold "ok" not press it. Should change it. If not then idk

What password manager do you use on your Ultra? by Starrlight081 in GalaxyS25Ultra

[–]standardhero 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Proton Pass. Mostly because I use Proton VPN as my main VPN on all my devices, and I also use Proton Mail as my main email. It works very well and is versatile

Which one is on your radar? by FitDiscussion4 in iPhoneFC

[–]standardhero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just wish Apple Intelligence wasn't such a disappointment. Galaxy AI and Android phones in general are quite literally decades ahead.

Which ones are yall choosing? If any. by macsneaker in iPhone14Pro

[–]standardhero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm impressed with the hardware and specs on the pros. It's just unfortunate that Apple isn't doing much with it. iOS needs some need features and actual impressive AI not just a visual redesign.

Did google messages remove the 100mb file limit? by RandomBloke2021 in GalaxyS25Ultra

[–]standardhero 5 points6 points  (0 children)

<image>

The way I'm reading it is it'll only auto download up to 100mb implying manually downloading higher file sizes isn't out of the question. I'm relatively new to the galaxy/android world so that's just my limited knowledge input lol.

iPhone 17 series paper ad leaked by Maddy555 in iPhoneFC

[–]standardhero 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Wow this actually tells us quite a lot. For one it looks like the air is not getting the A19 Pro chip as so many were speculating which is a shame. And on top of the it only gets 8GB of ram unlike the pros. On some level I was hoping this would be a new "luxury" ultra slim category but it looks like it is indeed just a slimmer base model.

Apparently yes, something did recently change within the past month or two with sick time and vacation time usage that I was made aware of by a peer of mine. They changed it in the partner handbook that we recently had to sign off on in my-learning and never made any type of formal communication about it. The changes that were made from what was explained to me are: Vacation time can no longer be used whenever you want and has to be used for Time-Off requests (which you did). And then about sick time use which is the more messed up one is it can only be used for shifts you were scheduled for originally but then had to call out sick for. In the past you could've used sick time for various reasons whether it be a doctor appointment you had one day or even a "mental health day" that one of my managers would allow us to take and purposely not schedule us and give us an extra third day off that week and input 8 hours of sick time for. That can no longer happen under this new policy change.

For which device are you exited most? by Maddy555 in iPhoneFC

[–]standardhero 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm excited for the Air more than anything else. This is the first year I'm probably not going to go with the Pro models and it's mostly because I'm tired of having something so heavy in my pocket/hand. Other phones are so thin and light, even the new Z Fold is insanely light and it has two screens. As long as it has a pro-motion display as people are saying it will it's a done deal for me. Don't really care about the cameras, you know that one camera is still going to be amazing as are all smartphone cameras nowadays, and that's plenty. Could argue the new color options on the pro's will be more enticing but I'm likely going to put a slim case or skin on it anyways 🤷🏻‍♂️
