I once had a co-worker like this named Andrew. One morning, while he scrambled to fill any moments of silence, I told him “Andrew, silence is ok sometimes” and went back to my work. He was significantly less annoying to work with afterwards.

I probably came off as a bit of a dick, though it wasn’t my intention.

Another soulless billionaire kisses the ring.

I hate how much I laughed at this. I’m never growing up.

I have the same issue. Brought it in and they cleaned the heck out of it. It’s better feeling though not perfect. I’ll bring it in under warranty another time because they said the process to replace the port takes like two hours and I didn’t have that time when I went in.

I don’t think you understand how determined the buyers are once they’ve been convinced by the scammer. I used to work for a major retailer that had signs at the register AND messages that the customer had to accept on the signature pad confirming they didn’t believe they were being scammed before going through with the purchase.

Additionally, my team was instructed to call me over any time they had a customer who they felt was being scammed to try to talk to them. Sometimes, I was successful, but other times I wasn’t. There is still one guy who goes in weekly to buy $500 of various gift cards for his overseas “girlfriend” on WhatsApp. I tried talking to him multiple times and he became increasingly angry at the conversation. I just had to accept I couldn’t help him.

I thought you need $401k to retire.

At first I was like “this shit makes no sense and isn’t funny”

Then I got it and was proud of myself like I had actually accomplished something.

Take your fucking upvote and get out of here.

Thanks for looking it up. It was a few years ago, so maybe I messed up the details along the way or the local branch manager was just being a dick to prevent a lost membership.

About time. Retro Fitness gym wanted a notarized letter from someone I know explaining why they no longer wanted the membership. Absolute insanity.

Is there something I’m missing? It wasn’t clear to me that he doesn’t have a mask or can’t get one.

They don’t bend without pressure being applied. If you don’t have AppleCare+, you’re probably going to be beat.

It will never be $30,000 or less. He did the same thing with the Model 3.

You really just can’t believe anything this guy says regarding his products.

Safari. Use DDG in browser, but primarily use Perplexity for searches via its app.

Fuuuuck it’s addictive. Love that I get it with Apple Arcade.

Thanks for sharing. Glad you’re happy.

Honest question:

How do you make money for things like food, automobile costs, and your connected device (assuming phone)? I’m not trying to make a broader point. I am genuinely curious.

I mean I’m sure your situation sucks, but I can’t believe this could be even mildly infuriating. Should they have a space screen saver? Should they have images that remind people how fucked they might be? It’s cheesy shit, sure, but sheesh.

It’s like the original blueprints were a word document and the architect tried to paste in an image.

I bought a mesh sneaker bag from Amazon that is designed to keep them safe in the wash and it seems to do the trick each time. Just be sure to take out in the insole before washing.

Steamer game, represent.
