I live in the Phoenix area - if it ever gets down to 32°F I’m dancing in the street.

I wouldn’t classify 0°C as very cold, just cold. 0°F definitely deserves the very.

“tiny homes” … literally the only thing that’s not massively overpriced.

Oh no, they’re definitely overpriced too.

Pot, kettle…

Whoa… Bad choice of words…

Or great, depends on what you were going for…

If you want to confuse people… I pronounce /etc as “ets”, but one of my coworkers recently called it “slash e t c” and I had to ask him to repeat it a couple times before I figured out what he meant…

Have you ever tried catching flies? Vinegar works better than honey, after all, flies eat shit.

Having worked both retail and call center, no, they’re not in the same league. People can be assholes over the phone, absolutely, but it’s quite different from face-to-face. Someone threatens to kill me over the phone, I can say “I’d like to see you try” and hang up, and the worst that happens is I get fired. In person, they can carry out the threat.

It’s nice when you have a boss that has your back. I worked at RadioShack back in the day, and the manager of the store I stayed at the longest was like that. Of course we didn’t have the whole x items or less, but we were in a busy college area, only on-street parking, so we’d get people running in and wanting to be served immediately regardless of how busy we were because they were double parked. The boss empowered us to tell them to fuck off, politely of course. “Come back when you have more time, we’ll be happy to help”. Also, we were next to a parking lot, it wasn’t ours, though we did have a couple of spots that were clearly marked employee parking only. Few things gave the boss more pleasure than calling a tow truck… Literally rubbing his hands with glee on multiple occasions.

I never worked food service, but I did my time in retail… That “Well we’re here now” just gave me a PTSD-like flashback…

Oblige pickiness in boys? They’ll be picky as men.

I feel like this isn’t necessarily a bad thing… My son is super picky, and it’s annoying for sure, but it doesn’t deserve to be in the same list as dishonesty or aggression… It means he knows what he likes and won’t let anyone push him into something he’s not comfortable with. He’ll try new things on occasion, but he has to be ready for it, if we push him he just digs in and refuses to budge. I’ve had the best results with “hey bud, want to try this? It’s really good” and when he says no, “suit yourself, more for me.” It doesn’t work often, but when it does, it sticks. New food option unlocked. My wife will bargain with him, and she gets him to try stuff, but only to get what she’s offering, even if he ends up liking it, he needs to keep up the appearance that he doesn’t because it’s been made into such a big deal…

If we’re thinking about banging the green M&M, we’re not thinking of her as tasty chocolate candy.

Hey, speak for yourself.

Meanwhile my boss’s boss was telling me last year that I had taken too much of our “unlimited” PTO after 2 weeks…

Women are so cute and cute and cute and cute and cute and…

(My auto complete seems to be stuck in a rut…)

Just to be the man who died 12000 times to … rise up at your door? Bbbrains…

Holy poeslaw Batman!

More importantly, people say they’ve changed…

I don’t think the OS was sophisticated enough to tell the difference… A drive letter is a drive letter…

As I recall, my windows 95 CD-ROM contained a bunch of floppy-sized .cab files in a folder, so it’s entirely possible it was available as a set of floppies…

Now I want to do this at my job… I actually have a box of 5.25" floppies somewhere…
