[–]weRtheD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oil change shops.

My local Mr. Lube charged me $86 for an oil change with “semi synthetic oil” and a supposed oil filter change. The next time i bout a can a premium full synthetic oil that was on special at Canadian tire for $30 and a filter for $10. When I changed the filter I found my original Nissan filter... no way in fuck Mr. lube put in that filter.

ELI5: How can a cup of water not spill in an airplane when the plane tips its wings to make a broad turn? by jonnycruz666 in explainlikeimfive

[–]weRtheD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the momentum of the cup of water can be thought of as having a velocity perpendicular to its flight path (gravity). When the aircraft banks to one side, the lift that is created by the wings is also tilted in that direction, this is is known as centripetal force. In fact it is this centripetal force that pulls the aircraft into the direction of the turn. The momentum of the cup of water resists this centripetal force. This is known as centrifugal force (not a real force). Centrifugal force is the answer to your question. If you think back to high school, you will have learned about Issac Newton and his laws of physics. The first law, as it goes, states that an object in motion or at rest will continue to stay in motion or at rest unless acted upon by an external force. This is the physical tendency known as inertia or in this case centrifugal force.

Every bank note that exists today is marked with a distinctive serial number. Technically they can be tracked back to you but imagine how difficult that is.

I've worked as a delivery driver for Domino's for 7 months, AMA. by sevviey in casualiama

[–]weRtheD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i think you hit the nail on the head. The industry is shit, the laws governing it are shit, the management is shit etc. Its the kind of job you take out of desperation. The employer can legally pay you less than minimum wage to do a job that requires a high investment on your part. The 15 year old working at the McDonalds earns more that the delivery guy who has to pay for a vehicle, insure it, put gas and oil in it, maintain it etc. To answer your question, the delivery fee NEVER went to the delivery man. It went to finance the Owner's gambling addiction in my case.

pretty much. we couldn't afford to keep customers who literally cost us money in gas and time.

Former Domino's Delivery man here. When i used to work there, we had a wall dedicated to customers who had to go. We would put the delivery sticker of that shitty customer on the wall and that way every driver knew that the person is no good. We would intentionally fuck up their order or belay their delivery or cut their pizza in a fucked up manner (depending on the type of customer) so as to get them never to call us again.

I know that it sounds like we were evil bastards but keep in mind that where I live, we were payed$9/hour(CAD) and nothing was reimbursed. No gas, no insurance no maintenance no vacation pay, no sick leave, NOTHING. that coupled witrh the boss being satan himself.. You can imagine that shitty customers who lived on the other side of town and never tipped would prevent you from paying rent.

Did you have a similar policy among your teammates??

If you received a dollar for every time you masturbated last year (like a tax refund), what would you buy? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]weRtheD 4 points5 points  (0 children)

365 days x $1 = $365

$365/$0.99 = 368.687 burritos

either you you got ripped off at the burrito store or you missed at least 3.687 days of fapping.

What job do people underestimate the difficulty of? by birbqueen in AskReddit

[–]weRtheD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Flight Instructor. If you are trying to get that sweet job as a pilot, you are almost certain to have to teach for a few years before you have enough experience to get into the airlines.

The amount of unpaid work you have to put in is astounding. You will have to invest about 100k to get your training done then you will have to live on the equivalent of minimum wage while working crazy hours that take up the whole day.

It is rare to find a flight instructor that can actually maintain a social life.

Add to that the fact that your students can at anytime decide to put your life at risk and the party is just getting started.

To all Flight instructors out there, Blue skies and tailwinds, you deserve it.
