NitroSpazzz posted:I'd imagine employees are told to take down plate numbers and get a good description of any thieves. I'd say they have video cameras covering the lot but I can't remember seeing any at my local last time I was there but I wasn't looking for them. Company that large they've got loss prevention who was probably on the phone with police before the guy left the parking lot. I'm in Poland at the moment, pretty sure I should be able to find one here and ship it to you if you want. The 126p hasa huge enthusiast base here.

slidebite posted:So yesterday Mrs. Slidebite had an interview for the first time in 17 years. Position outside her industry/profession but it's something she's been interested in for years and actually earned a university certificate to qualify her for it as "something to do" 7-8 years ago. Little late here, but fwiw the thing I would suggest doing depends on compensation at both places and if she wants to go back. Call up old place, tell them you’re expecting to receive an offer at new place but you appreciate everything they did and working with them and wanted to know whether they had any interest in matching the offer. Then do the same thing with new place - “I really loved interviewing, it’s a great opportunity, I’ve heard back from another position and while I’m really excited about this one I need to be able to make a decision based on what’s best for my family so frankly I’m hoping you can make this decision a real no brainer for me etc.”

NitroSpazzz posted:Question for any of our international people in UK or anywhere else in Europe I guess. What big online parts providers do you use and trust? Running into all sorts of issues sourcing an alternator for the Fiat 126 because it wasn't sold here and it's a very unique design. Autodoc.co.uk has them in stock at reasonable prices, not great shipping prices but oh well. I'm down a rabbit hole right now trying to figure out if the diode pack is used in any other units that might be easier to source. $100 from this weird Polish site:  New one installed

I just made crepes for breakfast, which I think makes me the official crepe maker in this household.

Sponsor suggested that I should break it off with that girl. I'm asking for a raise tomorrow so I'm going to wait until after that call/performance review to cut it off. Really excited to ask for a raise but really not looking forward to the breakup call.

64bit_Dophins posted:Sponsor suggested that I should break it off with that girl. Good luck on both. I put the rafters up yesterday, finished the siding, and drug my rear end to sheath it today. So tired, from well paced and slow work, and only a few hours each day. I don't feel so bad about not exercising and yes I understand if I had been exercising I might have more stamina.  I'm especially happy that the roof was 10 feet in the sloped direction. When I measured the last piece and it was 24" I was delighted. I made the overhang length decision based on what I could get from a 10ft board. StormDrain fucked around with this message at 01:10 on Mar 8, 2021 |

A woman matched with me on a dating app tonight for the express purpose of telling me “not sure which is worse, the 70’s mo or the Hawaiian shirt” Like gently caress you lady, you’re 16 years my senior and no oil painting yourself. What made you wake up today and choose violence? Other than that my day was great and I hope everyone else has been having a lovely time.

Boss and I went over my performance review. Took all of 2 minutes, basically "only one thing I think you can improve on, here's how I think you can do better, and your raise is <x amount>" (it's an okay raise - about 5%, but I'll have another one in September). This makes 4 raises in less than 2 years, so I'm cool with being nearly $3/hr higher than when I started. BS'd for a minute after, casually mentioned that I finally got scheduled for my 2nd dose of the 'vid vaccine. He asked when it was. Told him Wednesday morning after work (sidenote: I'm normally off Wed and Thu; I would have scheduled it Tue if I could have, but I got what I could get.) He asked if I wanted him to move my days off to Thu and Fri in case I wind up feeling lovely. Yes, please and thank you. I felt kinda lovely for a couple of days after the first, and the 2nd supposedly makes you feel a bit worse if you had any side effects. That'll save me from burning any sick time, and saves him from being down a person one night if I feel especially lovely. I didn't really feel the side effects from the first one for a day or so (aside from the injection site being numb), but when they hit, they hit. loving inventory tomorrow morning. Anyone who's worked retail dreads inventory. Anyone who just shoves tiny rear end bottles of hot sauce onto the shelves instead of properly stocking them has a special place in hell waiting for them. I spent 2 hours just straightening out the hot sauce section.  We're SUPPOSED to stock completely to the back, then bring 2 up per facing (we also don't stack the faces even if they're stackable, unlike most stores). I wound up completely emptying out several shelves. Only faced the top and bottom shelves, plus ones that have stuff we sell a lot of. Get to fix it all again tonight, but it won't be AS bad. Gonna have to do some vendor sections too, there's a few vendors who flat out don't give a poo poo how their displays look.

Tbh the past few interactions I've had with women on dating apps at this point in the pandemic have been borderline psychotic. I wouldn't take it personally bro you unironically look hot and good. I think that normal people have just completely lost their mind.

Hawaiian shirts own, if I’m partaking in summer daytime weekend activities (read: day drinking) there is a 100% I’m wearing one. My fiancé hates them and I don’t give a care  goatse guy posted:

Elviscat posted:Congrats on the raise! Yeah, on one hand I would have preferred to have that night off (as originally scheduled - my shot is scheduled at 9am, I was scheduled off, but my days off got moved over, so I work 10pm-??? that night), but OTOH I got hammered pretty hard about 36 hours after the first shot. This lets me work that night, and Wednesdays tend to be very light for us anyway. I'm fully expecting to start feeling lovely toward the end of my shift, but I'll be packing some acetaminophen (I'd prefer ibuprofen, but I've heard something about it not playing nice with the Moderna vaccine?). I have generic Celebrex from when I hurt my leg several months ago as well, if I need something a little heavier. I know drat well my left arm is gonna be hurting, and I'm still wearing a wrist brace on my right hand at work (not 24/7 anymore) since the Great Stair Slide of 2021, but my wrist is slowly getting better. It's not a huge raise - a little over 5% - but it's still going to put me at a solid $37k/yr before benefits. The benefits with this company are outstanding, and easily add at least $5k/yr on top. It's not the best pay, but for what I do, it's definitely good, especially since I'm not even 2 years in. The cap on my position is a little over $50k/year - I'm just a glorified can stacker. And I'll probably get a similar raise in September, so there's that.

Everyone that I know that got the Moderna were knocked out for a couple of days after the first and second shot. No one I know that got the Pfizer had a strong reaction to the first shot. I'm scheduled for the Pfizer on Friday.
