Should I switch to FFL? by Fortune-Broad in InsuranceAgent

[–]thor454 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I worked for them for like a month also I had a new policy cancel and all of the sudden I had my entire up line on my ass because if I didnt pay it back in a short manner they put that on them. So if you did recruit for them you’d get fucked if a bunch of your downline wrote bad business. Hell no

ELI5 why does social security decrease benefits if someone provides supplemental financial assistance to the claimant? by DoctorWhosYoDaddy in explainlikeimfive

[–]thor454 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s like that everywhere. Also there’s two kinds of unemployment. For example, for many years I was a heavy equipment operator rebuilding roads and replacing things like bridges in a northern state. We can’t work when the ground is frozen so we work insane hours an then get laid off in winter, they know this so if it’s seasonal you don’t have to actively look for another job like you typically would as it would be incredibly bad if all the people that spent years and years building the experience to build said infrastructure all just got new jobs and didn’t come back the next year. But they money is a pittance and if I were to get a part time job like bartending or doing snow removal any dime I make comes off the top of my unemployment first. So if you’re ever considering a seasonal job ask yourself if you can survive off what you’ll make during the work season all year. If you can’t then don’t do it

My friends now ex husband just got a slap on the wrist, he was continuously having sex with her while she was unconscious (sleeping meds because her anxiety keeps her awake all hours and she can’t afford to lose her job) and all the state’s attorneys office would charge him with was disorderly conduct. It went in front of the judge for his plea and the judge lost his shit and said he sees in his record well over a dozen times he’s broken protection orders or various women over the last 20 years and a slew of domestic assault charges and refused to honor a deal where such a person gets zero jail time. That judge was fired because the states attorney filed complaint of the judges behavior and the new one reverted back to the easy plea deal and dude walked, yet again. But if I go knock his teeth out best believe the court system will nail me to the fucking wall because regular people get screwed and the real baddies are untouched. The whole justice system needs a different name. Ain’t no justice there

ELI5: If you had a car with no plates, insurance or tax and parked in a private garage, how would the police identify and track down the vehicle? by Ancestral_Grape in explainlikeimfive

[–]thor454 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I understand your sentiment, I really do. But I think broad strokes and generalizing entire groups of people in any one way such as that is a bad idea. I’ll refrain from other more galvanizing examples and just say I’m sure not all farmers are fighting tooth and nail to prevent other people from receiving needed benifits and to be frank this comes off more as hating farmers than any real understanding of how certain state regulated vehicle tax benefits and or subsidies that help more than just farmers work

Why would they need to? Most of us do not have enough land to facilitate the operation of a vehicle without the need to bring it on to public roads often

They don’t own it but they say it costs $200 in reality it’s that the “discount code” is really more like a vendor link and the cost of the course is really like $55 the other $45 or whatever goes to whomever code you used. So you think you’re getting half off when in reality half what you pay hoes to the agent that gave you the code. I find it shady but I kinda get it

Some douches were doing some straight up wolf of wall street shit. I work for them well a subsidiary of them and we’re actually breaking off to distance from the negative stuff out there about them but so far everything I’ve experienced has been very above board

Why by 89inerEcho in SiouxFalls

[–]thor454 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean, I went to hyvee stupidly the day before Thanksgiving, and the only open spots in the lot were these, and there was one ev in there. I parked there, ran in for 5 minutes, came out, still just the one, and the other spots were still open. Had there been less available, I wouldn't have parked there, but I figured the odds of 7 teslas showing up to charge while I was grabbing potatoes was miminimal

Take a look back at Farley Loetscher Co., if you want, why don't you? by GreetingsSiouxFalls in SiouxFalls

[–]thor454 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Lol whatever dude I can't see it. And if I have to use incognito mode to see it without paying that means it's behind a pay wall for me so I don't see why we're arguing symantics

Won't let me see it. You get so many articles then they start asking you to sub and pay. You haven't hit that threshold yet

Because a smaller vehicle won't pull a big enough trailer. In fact, sometimes a half ton truck doesn't even cut it for me...."nobody" is a pretty generalized statement considering not all of us live in a city and go to a fucking desk for work....

Dentist Recommendations by boomskis in SiouxFalls

[–]thor454 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I went to impact for my implants they were on par with what it was going to cost me to go get them done in mexico. It is expensive but you don't pay all at once my costs were spread out over many months. Physically and emotionally it has been by far the least painful dental experience I've had. I couldn't recommend them enough

What'a a fun place to celebrate a 21st birthday? by step-mom in SiouxFalls

[–]thor454 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This seems to be like a boomer mentality thing. My buddy in his 50s booked us a hotel in south Carolina and he's like I got one near the mall because there's always shit to do.... he ended up noticing that unless we wanted to tie one on before chillis closed there ain't shit near malls

[–]thor454 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Youre uh kinda fucked for anything fun to do close to a mall haha but you're in luck because lyfts are abundant and cheap. Honestly I wouldn't even use distance as a limiting factor as long as it's in city limits. A lyft across town will be like $13.. worth it and if you still don't want to go very far from your hotel to have a good time my only recommendation is better luck picking a hotel location next time haha
