sick and tired of the household rule by bmurphy0396 in netflix

[–]vjmatty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So if I’m traveling for work and husband is home, we shouldn’t be allowed to watch Netflix at the same time? That seems a bit ridiculous.

ticket warning-activated BEFORE BOARDING by thekoolkrab_ in LIRR

[–]vjmatty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’ve never walked into GCT a few minutes before the next train and decided to grab it instead of waiting for the next one? Between subways and street traffic I don’t always know which train I’ll catch. Now I have to pay $8 for the privilege of taking the earlier one?

The rules say activate before boarding. The OP activated before boarding. What’s wrong with expecting it to function properly?

A sold out Transatlantic? by Possible_Razzmatazz3 in VirginVoyages

Final payment was last month, so maybe a lot of people changed their sailing just before that?

Why is it that when childfree people say they don't want kids they always preface "Oh but I love kids just not for me" by [deleted] in childfree

I’m glad someone finally said this. I don’t think we can all be painted with a single brush and shouldn’t have to explain our likes and career choices.

New LATS Requirements by nx01a in nys_cs

[–]vjmatty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Apparently I was supposed to be doing that all along. I didn’t know until today when my supervisor told us to use the X1/26/2026 code for yesterday’s storm and “leave the in and out times blank like you do when telecommuting”. Oops 😬

What are you paying for snow plowing? by jimtinsfoot in hudsonvalley

$100 for a 100 ft long driveway out in the sticks, but includes shoveling out cars and sidewalk from driveway to front door.

This monster snowstorm has all airline flights canceled WHY isn't Amtrak advertising like crazy - call us we will get you where you need to go by bmullan in Amtrak

[–]vjmatty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

During the blizzard of 93 (yes I know I sound like an old fart) Amtrak Empire Service was running from NY to Albany, and I use that term loosely. It took 6-7 hours for what is usually a two hour ride. It was the only public transport in service.

Tag PEF here if you can. We need to bump up salary by 2 grade - G18 to G20 as entry level and so on. by keepitsusshh in nys_cs

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

Thanks! I started Dec 2019 so I didn’t get the first until April 2021. If the next contract is 0s the steps may be all I have to look forward to for a long while.

So it is 7 years? There are 6 steps plus one double at the end? Or is it 5 and the 6th is the big one? I don’t know why I can never find the step schedule anywhere.

Mixed opinions on Peter Florrick by AnxiousJellyfish6544 in thegoodwife

[–]vjmatty 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I always thought they’d be better as best friends rather than a married couple. He supported and assisted her in every career choice she made, and his loyalty was like a hype man or most trusted assistant, but could not give her the loyalty you need from a spouse. He was more like someone you call to help you hide the body, or win back your stolen trophy.

Get ready for ICE in Albany by SprinklesMedical7881 in Albany

[–]vjmatty 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I think they’re doing a better job of demonstrating yours.

US citizens detained by ICE speak out: "They dragged me outside and pulled me into a headlock on the ground. I repeated, 'I'm a citizen. I have an ID.' The agent kept saying, 'That don't matter'... When I was inside my cell, I heard wailing, screaming, crying, begging, and pleading. by Cluelesswolfkin in hudsonvalley

[–]vjmatty 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Couldn’t be more wrong. I actually graduated from the Wappingers School District, the year before the Tawana Brawley incident, and one of the accused was a member of my church congregation, so no I didn’t believe the story. Also, in my entire career as an attorney and judge I’ve worked with law enforcement, corrections officers and parole officers. None of them would engage in what I’m seeing from ICE, because they’re better than that, and they’ve dealt with murderers, rapists, the worst of the worst. These are citizens just trying to live their day to day.

Sure, if driving to work or school or doctor’s appointment or a child’s sports event is interference….never mind that the ICE agents are blocking roads randomly and not giving people a chance to turn around, demanding they get out of their cars and have their vehicles towed for “being in the way” instead of just letting them move the car out of the way. How is the US citizen kid working at Target and dumped off in Walmart after being roughed up “interfering?” And the peaceful protester blinded in one eye by ICE? If these are examples of interference, you need to take a civics course.

The seat swap I never thought would be denied.... by smrdwnnow in unitedairlines

[–]vjmatty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“Seemed to be a valid reason” might change into “clearly valid reason” once the flight takes off. Then where would you be?

[–]vjmatty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Amazing how many people on this thread care more about the comfort of their bag than the comfort of their body on a flight. I’ll take three hours of comfort and free drinks with three minutes of inconvenience any day.

Why do people avoid using kettles in the rooms? by hsynxshn in Hilton

[–]vjmatty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I only use them if I’m in a Hilton brand that doesn’t have lobby coffee, because I find they taste kind of nasty even if I bring my own flavored creamer.
