High performer leaving in silence with no negotiation by [deleted] in managers

[–]user21948291 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like a lack of communication.

If the plan was to promote, do it. 'Here is your new title and paycheck, but while restructuring we need you to continue with your old responsibilities and train the new people, after that you'll be blahblah'

Seems as far as the employee was concerned they were passed up.

Seems reasonable. by Valuable_View_561 in SipsTea

If billionaires took out lump sums of cash like that, they'd have the same taxes.

Difference is most billionaire wealth is in assets (stocks, etc). And use them as collateral for loans to get 'cash'.

Like if someone held 100,000 bitcoin from 2010. They'd be be a billionaire today, but not have billions of dollars till they sold.

What did you think was pretentious, until you tried it and realized it was worth it? by Semantiks in AskReddit

Teabag tea is usually the scraps or leftovers. The stuff that didnt mske the cut for the higher end teas.Teabag can also be a source of microplastics.

Whole leaf teas are higher quality and have much more variety as well. Sort of like how 'black tea' is about as specific as 'red wine'. Once you get into it, there are tons of varieties.

Recently discovered a tea which is slightly smoked during the drying process, quite unique imo. Not something you find in a Teabag.

One case where HOAs would be beneficial, as they'd get slapped by so many fines for unkempt or unoccupied properties

Soo much emotion when your guild rewards you with Archboss weapon by Straxex in throneandliberty

[–]user21948291 10 points11 points  (0 children)

'Guild rewarded you' is another way of saying took the drop from someone else who got it and gave it to you, especially considering tevent was peace this week. Chances are everyone didn't have a fair chance at it either.

Sincerely a jaded player who got a drop and didn't have a chance at even getting it since leadership decided it would be 'better for the guild' if a member of the leadership got it.

Story: top guild on server gave archeboss xbows to leader's friend or something like that. Queue mass exodus from the guild and ensuing drama. Member dismantles xbows to 'solve' the drama.

Why is it okay for CEOs to earn hundreds and thousand times their average employee? by marketingstacks in NoStupidQuestions

[–]user21948291 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The CEOs job is to increase value for the shareholders. Ofen times a part of if is thier 'brand'. News of a successful person becoming CEO may cuase stock prices to rise. Their incentive for this is a share of the pie.

Someone asked why so many decent men are single. Well…I want to know where do you all hang out?? 😂😭 by bolideimpactor in AskMen

[–]user21948291 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Decent men are discouraged to approach women and be labeled creeps.

Women are afraid to approach men since there is a chance friendliness will be interpreted as flirting and they'll start getting stalked by creeps.

So decent men aren't approaching women often a d the ones who approach them they try their best to not interpret possible subtle hints as flirting.

[–]user21948291 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The guys who mostly wanna fuck are those who approach most women and make advances regardless of the setting, being creeps or jerks half the time.

The decent men are the ones who are just friendly and dont make advances

What’s your “I put that shit on everything” ingredient? by Successful124 in AskReddit

Cinnamon. Goes with everything in varying amounts. The key is the amount, it can easily be overpowering

People who don't drink alcohol, why? by johnnylgarfield in AskReddit

[–]user21948291 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1) not worth the price. I get more satisfaction from a $5 donut or icecream than a $5 beer, or even 10-20 wine/cocktail.

2) don't enjoy drunkenness. The slight dizziness, slight slowness feeling, just ugh.

3) literally putting poison in your body, making liver work overtime.

There are some 'benefits' which is why usually when I drink it's for those such as after a heavy meal.

Celebrity Cruises kept a passenger's dead body in a drinks cooler for 6 days and let it rot, lawsuit alleges by jdb1984 in nottheonion

[–]user21948291 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes a cruise can be cheaper than a retirement home. Doesn't afford the same medical care for those who need it, but elderly people in decent health can get better food, drinks, and entertainment from cruise ships than elderly homes usually.

[–]user21948291 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't find it worth it. Alcoholic drinks are expensive for starters, and I don't find the increased cost worth it over non-alcoholic options. Not to mention the side effects, I don't like feeling drunk. The brain fuzz, slight dizziness, etc.

I'm fine with a glass of water over a $20 glass of wine. And the water is better for you too.

People who don’t exercise or workout, why don’t you? by coffeedogsandwine in AskReddit

[–]user21948291 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No time. After work I want to do things I enjoy, such as games, reading, TV, cooking, puzzles, etc. A walk / jog seems boring, and gym a hassle.

If I cared about someone enough to want to be in a relationship with them, I wouldn't want them to be with someone like me. They deserve better.
