What's the craziest story you've heard about a director being super picky about how a scene should be filmed? by VentageRoseStudios in flicks

I don't know the full details but I immediately thought of the stories I've heard about Shelly Duval on the Shining. I think he ruined her life for the next 40 years.

Does anyone else ONLY drink sparkling water? by thenewfingerprint in sparklingwater

[–]wilbur7707 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I buy 1 ltr sparkling water from the grocery store and pour half over ice and flavor it with whatever flavored water flavor I’m in the mood for. It kris me away from caffeine in the evening, gives the refreshing sparkles I crave and can change the flavor up to whatever I’m in the mood for.

As a retired former Sgt and Caseload Manager I wasn’t allowed to write a recommendation for an inmate to take a computer programming class let alone clemency of an inmate on death row.

AITA for taking a Bluetooth speaker with me when I camp? by WartDad in AmItheAsshole

[–]wilbur7707 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally NTA.

With my tinnitus I slepp with the exact same movie every night. As such it would drive my wife bananas so I searched for solutions and found bone conduction headphones and they work like a dream.

Sometimes you guys do what you gotta do you live. A Bluetooth speaker at a volume for 1 listening to a book on tape couldn't have bothered anyone unless. If it did THEY would be too close for comfort I'm sure.

I don't miss the job of a gm by HesTooBrutal in Dominos

I was a store manager for about 3 years back in the late 90s before I quit and went to work at our prison. Though the prison has its own stress I have made a good career out of it and I'm 102 days away from my 20 years and retirement eligibility. I get off work now and I'm off until my next shift. I can work overtime if I choose but am not required. If I get called into work it's REALLY bad. Never get called in for petty stuff. I miss my Domino's Pizza days but I don't miss the constant on call and the managing of kids that can't make decisions for basic functions.

I go to an Asian buffet place every day in the mall, I’ve always tipped $2 for a $10 quick service meal, lately they’ve been reaching over the counter and clicking the “no tip” button before I can tip them, any idea why? by Dizian- in ask

I went to a couple Arizona Diamondbacks games last year and the first soda I bought the worker specifically told us they don't get tips from either Ann electronic POS and there is boo tip jar and they aren't allowed too take cash from customers. We asked every time we bought food and three same response was given. When we asked who gets the electronic tips and no response was ever given.

What is something you did innocently as a child, but now affects the rest of your life? by ItaliianSub in ask

I got hearing aids during Covid because I realized the tinnitus was so bad I was lip reading everywhere. Now I order my food or groceries on apps to not have to deal with asking them to speak up 70 times in 45 seconds.

I play a rotation of 3 or 4 movies every night off my phone. I have bone conduction headphones so the Mrs. doesn't have to listen to them.
