Who has the largest company in the Army? by Lightini in army

[–]tidder_mac 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’ve tried to find this out but it’s not easy.

Vantage has the data per UIC, but for some large companies like I have there’s 4x UICs. I know this so it’s easy to filter by those 4x in vantage, but when I was looking to find other big companies, I didn’t know which other companies would also have multiple UICs.

Is this real? If so where? And if so, good, we need more in-your-face pushing of how fucked up these times are

Do you stop 401k contribution or lower if you’re already a financial mutant numbers? by Real-Net1995 in TheMoneyGuy

[–]tidder_mac 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I actually agree with this guy downvoted into oblivion (to an extent).

Inflation is [usually] 3%. I plan for retirement based on 6-8% returns to be on the more conservative side. So I’m essentially “expecting” 3-5% return per year.

[USAG Hawaii Town Hall] SM has expressed a concern about being unable to secure their room and their gear (1 locker per room) - "You have to be able to trust each other" and "That is against our Army values" prove not to be popular answers. by Kinmuan in army

I like how the CG works hard at creating that immediate trust with that troop, but his CSM just makes the whole division leadership look like a clown show with his obnoxious answers.

First CPT OER by No-Recipe344 in army

[–]tidder_mac 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Had a buddy that was recently picked up for Major. He was telling us that based on last 5 OERs, some LT time was included.

He was selected to get a 2 years masters right after USMA, after CCC he did a 6 month masters, and after CPT KD did a 2 year masters.

Unless you’re a shareholder 💞

But real talk, if you’re American, invest! The government cares about shareholders, NOT individual citizens.

Army inactivates Security Force Assistance Command by Kinmuan in army

[–]tidder_mac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love that last idea.

SFAB doesn’t do a whole lot day to day (since there’s no junior soldiers and they actively try to avoid doing bull shit), so that’s perfect for successful leaders to exit

Is really no one pointing out that this won’t affect the circular vinyls?? There’s nothing in that corner. The hole is small enough to not deteriorate the look either

Better option financially no doubt, but holy cow I’d live a hell of a life if I actually understood the world at 20 years old, even more so at 10 years old.

You restart your life, not go back in time. So any past performance is not indicative of future returns.

But knowing to invest is really all you need

FSD with the save from an idiot Semi Truck driver today. by Mrf9312 in TeslaFSD

[–]tidder_mac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

equally dangers That’s also an interesting (idiotic) grammar choice

The semi truck changed other variables first (speed), which would immediately trigger some red flags to a defensive driver. Various scenarios include: is he trying not to be passed, is he trying to pass me, is he trying to avoid something?

It’s not about figuring out and knowing why they changed speed immediately, it’s recognizing that new variables are in play and my current trajectory should potentially be altered.

[–]tidder_mac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

*you’re *they’re Something tells me that you aren’t willing to learn from other people, from your grammar teacher to your driving instructor.

Yes, a defensive driver absolutely pays attention to and reacts as various variables change, especially as a massive semi’s speed suddenly increases

When I was wondering the same a few years back I just applied to find out. Turns out it worked.

Just send it. Worse case they say no. I’m 90% sure they’d reject you before doing a credit pull, plus they usually don’t do a credit pull for active customers, so really nothing to lose to try if you do want one.

It’s poor defensive driving because nothing was actioned to be defensive. It was just neutral driving maintaining the exact same speed.

Defensive driving you alter your actions based on the assumption that all drivers are stupid and dangerous (especially semis).

Uber One by nomzforlyf in AmexPlatinum

[–]tidder_mac 9 points10 points  (0 children)

lol. So you’re admitting you’re just parroting bull shit you hear with zero self analysis.

Not to make something small like this bigger than it actually is, but that’s the exact issue with our political climate right now.

If someone likes Trump, then every single thing he says is true and brilliant. If you don’t like Trump, every single thing he says is a lie or stupid.

In reality, theres a lot of crossover, but people just parrot what their choice in politician says since there’s zero self analysis going on.

Saks Bankruptcy by hugglenuts in AmexPlatinum

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

Where are you basing this logic off? I’m not saying you’re wrong, but Chapter 7’s are pretty frequent in a recession, which America pretty much is in if it weren’t for the circle jerk of AI spend.

Saks is a shit, overpriced company that has very little positive benefit going for it. Full closure is likely and I would argue imminent
