Replying to Spooky Phijkchu #spooky.131 First year in a while we had real family drama
Trump as you've mentioned before?
general
Thursday, November 28, 2024
a lot of that, women on my mom's side were all talking about how they are going to be scared to leave the house in January, and think the Trump election has emboldened criminals
and one of my more distant cousins called them out on being stupid, that really was what set everyone off
then it became a night of trying to explain how every niece/nephew is doing their life all wrong, and they could do it better
I feel like the arguments are never ABOUT politics, it's something semi-political making someone look/feel stupid
and then everyone trying to dogpile and prove that their wing of the family is not the most stupid/worthless
I was at work until 5pm so I got to avoid the extended family bullshit ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
my sister and brother were dragging our wing down
Vinny, how much extra do they pay on Thanksgiving?
Replying to Spooky Phijkchu #spooky.131 Vinny, how much extra do they pay on Thanksgiving?
1.50/hr for what i work plus 8hr normal pay rate just for it being one of the qualifying holidays
so somewhere in the $35-$40/hour range?
or is my math wrong
I think he means he got double + $1.50
hopefully
Normal rate plus $1.50
I uh.... wasn't trying to joke there
So my 19 became 20.50
what
apparently
I'm just out of touch ig
You’re treating dollar tree like it isn’t the cheapest corporation in the country
Always assume if something isn’t legally required then dollar tree will absolutely refuse to do it
when Vinny said "Qualifying holiday", I imagined he meant it was one of the two (christmas + Thanksgiving) where you get a flat multiple
Replying to legorhin #jazardly my extended family as a rule doesn't talk politics
That’s fair

Lolno it’s some holidays get an extra 8hours added to your timesheet at your base pay rate
Only for full time employees tho
OK SO I"M NOT CRAZY THEN
that is a thing
just not for you?
I am full-time so I do get it
Eh. I’d get it regardless of if I worked today or not so it’s independent and not really double or anything
Replying to legorhin #jazardly who shops at dollar tree on holidays anyway
Too many people considering there were people just pulling up after our closing time, like as me and the cashier were leaving
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Oh also ma and Joe put the Christmas tree up while I was at work apparently
Vinny, there are no branches on that thing
what the fuck
Always fake
Easier to deal with
Vinny, get yourself a good fake tree, they last like 20+ years
source ours is 25 years old
I agree the branches look like shit. It looks like they didn’t try to like fully spread them when they put the tree up.
Vinny, even if they fully spread them, it would not fix it
