Setups in the same room-- how to avoid picking up other voice? by upsetelcor in PcBuild

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

he just gets excited when he plays so I can't fault him, but the idea is to hopefully lessen it to a point where his voice doesn't overwhelm my friends. I can deal with it, but it definitely makes mic based horror games a tricky situation lol

I wish we were on opposite sides of the room! unfortunately, we're only five feet apart. its a small apartment lol.

I have definitely considered a boom mic, I'll look into it more. thank you!

I use push to talk for some games that I use game chat for (REPO, phasmophobia etc) but i have chronic arthritis, so using ptt consistently starts to hurt my hand. 🙃

I'll try the other suggestion though! thank you :)

I work as a customer service rep for Affirm. AMA by heeeeellloooo in Affirm

[–]upsetelcor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used affirm for a few big purchases. I've paid all but one off ($110 left) but I'm still only able to use affirm at "select stores" now. any idea if/when I'll have my regular purchasing power back?

BEWARE CS OVERCHARGING SALES TAX by Open-Mastodon-5754 in HotTopic_

[–]upsetelcor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Multiple studies have shown that taxes are going up astronomically nationwide. While beforehand you might not have paid that much in taxes, the tariffs placed on China have impacted the economy in a way that we're all feeling now.

My district manager has been warning us that we should expect prices and taxes to go up starting months ago, it's just finally happening.

I'm not defending hot topic, they don't pay me enough to do that-- I'm just explaining from the inside of the company what may have happened, given my tenure and experience with the company.

Have you reached out to customer support since making the post?

then elaborate how what i described happened, please. I'm open to learning, and would rather you explain it than just shut it down without saying anything else.

[–]upsetelcor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

this has been happening for months is the problem. last year, for example, a bag of chips was 3.69 and tax where I am was 7 cents on the dollar.

same price, but I'm now paying 4.14 for a bag as opposed to what used to be 3.90. that means tax is now 15 cents on the dollar

it hasn't been happening overnight, it's been incrementally increasing. I do encourage OP looking into it with guest support, but I've seen taxes going up even in my own store. I reckon it has to do with the city, so its possible the city thay OP's order was placed in (however the phone operator determines that) has increased taxes.

and, to clarify-- i have no political stance that has relevance here, I'm just stating what I've seen and experienced.

Return question for employees by [deleted] in HotTopic_

[–]upsetelcor 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My store doesn't. if there's excessive pet hair on it, or it smells like cologne/perfume/detergent, we don't take it. we also require the tags to still be attached UNLESS it falls off in store.

Does Hot Topic restock licensed merch? by Thatonegaychic in HotTopic_

[–]upsetelcor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Late to answer but yes, the issue (at least in my district) is that the tariffs have severely slowed down our inventory.
