vent

yeah

did you see that

tunnel they made that one time

I guess Epstein WAS a pretty busy guy

oh yeah good news I think my tumor is healing

The man's already thrown under the bus for a variety of reasons, I shouldn't take one of his admirable traits from him

I'm glad your tumor is healing pirate

You can't call your child a tumor pirate

that is rude

Pirate if you died of cancer I would be so sad

if I had a child it would be a much bigger affair

I would hope it's bigger than a tumor

yeah me too rup

the weirder part about credit is that it's a private system

not governmental

Is that weird

because it's private, there is no mechanism to find out details about your credit score or financial holds that are put on you bu the 3 credit bureaus

(people should also just have WAY less available credit in general)

which is the fault of the government, but is based on the credit rating system

It was 70 degrees yesterday and it looks like a blizzard is going on outside right now

Ohio goes crazy

i had that like 3 days ago

it was like 80 degrees then the next day it started snowing

It was 15 today, going to be -15 in a few days

weather crazy\

it snowed today but it's expected to be 85 degrees this weekend

it was 60 degrees on thursday, this was my front door last night 🥰

jesus christ

Did you see it's supposed to get back up to 70 tomorrow then 80 on the weekend

You might be a day behind in that but it's coming

I should scroll up

mint lives very north, it looks like it's gonna be up to 45 F on the weekend at the max

You could make a cool tunnel now

st paddys parties tn, will definitely have to tunnel out. luckily work from home so my car can stay stuck a bit longer 😝

there are steps which lead up to my door. thats about 5 feet of snow that we got within like 12 hours

so windy though taht its very inconsistent levels of snow. i know some folks have snow drifts which reaches over their roofs. then across the st you can see the tires of the cars

Had a dream last night that I hit a ramp with my car and beheaded a woman.

I wish that was me

i do love it up here. and its funny to see all the news with people losing their minds over getting snow 1 tenth of this. will be less fun shovelling out my car

i dont even have a driveway, my car is parked up on the sidewalk

dont usually have too much to shovel

I just saw a man come out of a bathroom who looked exactly like Epstein

He's in Ohio guys

I once saw a guy on a train that looked exactly like Stan Lee Where was your obligatory Stan Lee cameo? It happens at least once in every man's life.

no

I have some unprompted workplace drama that's just weirdly petty. I was tasked to see if a feature is feasible and it took a major edit to half our entire codebase. Since someone else is tasked to rewrite one entire library, I figure, hey, this isn't worth it to edit everything if you just keep this feature in mind since rewriting that will fix everything. I've sent them 3 Teams messages, an email with an entire writeup explaining everything and I can never find them in person... no response to anything. And then today we were at an update meeting and they just won't fucking answer anything so it was an awkward back and forth and now it's supposedly some drama. Anyway there we go.

I feel like remote people are better at answering their emails

Everyone in-office is just fucking around most of the time

My office drama is I almost didn’t get my shift swapped this week despite confirming with my coworker it was cool because my manager who handles the schedule forgot despite me emailing him, talking to him personally, and double checking with him the shift before

He’s constantly talking about how us operators have it easy because we “just sit at a desk” and meanwhile can’t even check his damn email

?? Managers just sit at a desk too

Desks and meetings

90% of a manager's duties are technically a waste as they provide no production

A manager's role is to be a fall guy for the manager above them

Thats why its managers all the way down

To be honest, now that I'm in a real corporate environment, I can understand managers more because some people just do not care to learn anything. They show up, get told to do a task by their manager, and once they finish it, ask to do another. It's pretty baffling that people don't want to learn the system their helping build.

I say this and my best friend is the worst example - he's been working on a radar system for 4 years and he doesn't understand how radar works.

lol

I think there are three levels to that: people who put their head down and actually learn it people who learn enough to parrot talking points to management/stakeholders people who genuinely absorb nothing that's going on

Hereby issuing a blanet apology for anything wrong I did in the past 128 hours

I forgive you

We have a buy and sell chat at my work. Someone has posted their switch, switch 2, PS4, and PS5 at a very low price. He is also selling all his games. Would it be inappropriate to ask why he is doing this?

If you know him at all, I'd say no. If it is a "I've never really talked to him" thing, maybe

Polu, that's 100% fine The answer is almost always "kids moved out" or "started dating someone and are de-duplicating"

i don't see why you couldn't ask that

Completely unrelated to Polu's plight, but I was going to go do dishes, and noticed I left the other porkchop I cooked last night which I meant to refridgerate and then eat as leftovers tonight, still sitting in its metal prison after having been cooked over 20 hours ago

I guess cooking then immediately leaving to run to campus for my TA work was not the best strategy

Lame response "Getting rid of my gaming stuff"

I got two games out of it though

what a nothing answer

he's over being a gamer.

he got tired of being oppressed

What games? Is he declaring hood bankruptcy

This reads to me more as a "I don't actually want to answer this question" answer, which is perfectly okay.

Very few people are willing to outright say they don't want to answer a question. Instead they will give a nothing answer. Have you ever thought of that?

The prices he's selling them at, I suspect this is a spur of the moment midlife "I am wasting my life and need to do things" kind of reason

^

Maybe he just needs the money, selling off video games would be a good way to recoup money if you were in a tight spot money wise I think.
