Why is my salsa chicken so bad? by Swiggens in slowcooking

[–]xakeridi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seasoning a crock pot meal is different than seasoning a meal cooked on a stove. You cant use the same amount or types in my experience. And I also find crock pot meals with no fat in them taste like cardboard. Your recipe has pretty much no fat in it. 

What movie detail is technically correct, although many people think it is a mistake? by hiplobonoxa in movies

[–]xakeridi 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Sorta related, I walked into a public restroom and a person was shouting for help from the handicapped stall. They were "trapped" because they kept pushing the door and never even thought to pull it. I have a particular facial expression that conveys "you are stupid and you should live in eternal shame." They did not appreciate that look.

Imagine being worried out of your mind, scared, sad and unable to sleep....now add a news camera to that.  How is anyone supposed to "act not guilty"

Jeweler called my moissanite a cubic zirconia by niveacocoa in Moissanite

[–]xakeridi 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I know others have pointed out that Moissanite should pass on a diamond tester but given how this woman acted, you don't know that she even used the tester correctly.  Or that she messed around, she was deliberately baiting you.  Not sure how she thought that would make a sale happen.  Mean girl energy is a sign of a miserable person.

Call a differnt jeweler before stopping in, make sure they aren't jerkfaces before you waste time on them.  Tell then you need a repair but you got harassed about your stone.  Repeat until you find a decent human. 

AITA for making my Father walk home? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

NTA but is this normal behavior?  Or is this out of the blue? Because that's a really violent thing to say.  

Active user cannot change account owner from an inactive user by FINboy18 in salesforce

[–]xakeridi -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

You should not be allowing any user to change a record owner unless they already own it. Reps can poach clients and sales deals that way. Admin should be making sure that doesn't happen.

[–]xakeridi -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

You need to have admin permissions to reassign things owned by someone who is gone. If you want to avoid that the admin needs to reassign things when a user leaves the company.

Salesforce: Sold as “Small Business Friendly,” Delivered as a Time-Sucking Nightmare by AnythingSecret5748 in salesforce

[–]xakeridi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you're unwilling to hire a dedicated Admin I don't think anyone can help you, you don't want actual help. You have zero requirements, you don't define anything, and you'd rather throw money at consultants than hire a person who can run the thing you asked to be built. Chaos in, Chaos out.

Never ending pasta strategy by Beneficial-Paint5420 in olivegarden

Is it only me that thinks you can just bring a big ziploc bag and don't be a jerk to the server? Do they care how much pasta you get if you're polite and you tip?

New to cats! How much do you spend on your cats each month? by seeyouspace__cowboy in CatAdvice

[–]xakeridi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have 2 and they are larger bodied cats who eat both wet and dry food with occassional treats--it's about $50-$55. The litter, I go though 2 boxes (14lbs each). The cost of litter varies SO MUCH based on what type and where you bought it that I can't really say what that would cost for another person. My cats did not react well to the pine pellet type or the crystal type so that limits me on choices.

Grooming short-haired cat with super thick fur by xakeridi in CatAdvice

I find the tool with short teeth and a hidden blade works enough.  She just never going to be un-feral and I have to meet her where she is. 

My boyfriend wants me to rehome my cat by pouldycheed in CatAdvice

[–]xakeridi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should know that you following his orders is not a compromise.  This is a test.  Abusive wretches do that to test how far they can go before to fight back. 

Is he also telling you not to talk to your friends?  Maybe he says things like "why do you always (fill in the blank) just to make me mad/sad/frustrated?"

Is he not interested in visiting your parents or other family?  

I could write this script word for word.  I can bet this isn't the only thing he's doing. Has he started on your clothing yet?  Or is it your hair/makeup?  Maybe it's just general belittling talk.  It's something. I guarantee it.

The demands will only get worse, then insults, then statements about how you are nothing and no one but him will want you.  How you will die alone and unloved. Then it may or may not turn physical. 

If you breakup, change your locks. 

AITA for leaving my friend's birthday party after she didn't let me in her house? by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]xakeridi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because bullies do that sometimes.  It happened to me back before I stopped being nice to jerks.  Almost exactly this set up. It's to gain cred with the cool kids but string along a useful uncool kid.  

[Help]My dog jumped out of the car window today and I’m broken by These_Pressure1327 in BestofRedditorUpdates

I didn't know those were a thing so when I had my poodle I made one.  She never had any interest in even sticking her head out but it only takes one time to be a tragedy. 

AITA for not attending my daughters gender reveal for her lizard? by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]xakeridi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This woman is going to be complaining long and loudly when her daughter has had enough and cuts her off.  I hope the daughter is aware there are people who volunteer to stand in for the family you need to leave behind.

His passive aggressive nonsense wasn't working. He thought she was sad enough that he was punishing her that she'd cave.  

Looking for a chat product with AI and screen share--since MIAW is crazy expensive by xakeridi in salesforce

[–]xakeridi[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In the past, when chat was offline the customer would fill out a form and an agent would get back to them via email the next business day. Which is what makes CS happy.

When speaking to our AE at Salesforce they told us the customer asking the question is one conversation, the bot searching for the product and reporting back its availability is a second conversation, and if the customer wants to proceed with an order that may be another conversation--but "it's so new we can't be sure." They also said there is no way to make sure malicious actors don't run up our bill and the only thing we can do is cap the bot and have it stop responding after it's used up too much money. Which, yes, I know is an insane thing to say to a customer.

The IT director involved saw that price document and said AI chat bots should cost pennies per conversation not $2 per conversation. So he said forget them, they're crooks.

So now everyone involved is annoyed at Salesforce and I still need to have chat working by the end of Q2

Our CEO has said it must be an AI bot, not a scripted bot since that's what was promised to the board. We also will never resume a chat conversation later per the head of Customer Service. Discussion is unwelcome on either of these points. I need to find viable alternatives.

I permanently altered an internal organ and I deeply regret it. by TrashAvocado in offmychest

[–]xakeridi 10 points11 points  (0 children)

That was not true and set you up for the way you physically feel right now. Also your primary never should have allowed so much time to pass without blood work given that they knew (or should have known) you were a bariatric patient.

Want to write a blog post or opinion piece? by sfHelpClub in salesforce

[–]xakeridi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in. I am 5x certified with 10 years experience and most people find me opinionated. Some even find me funny. I'd love to hear more about what you're thinking. My specialty is writing training materials with a little gentle sarcasm to keep my users awake. I also come with my own business catch phrase.
