Very few subjects can be represented by one graph and still give you the whole story. You could say this about almost anything posted here. I think it’s useful and interesting enough to be here.

Incredible. I have no idea, but I love this post. Keep it up.

Room temperature mayo is criminal

I get what you’re saying, but I can play PSP or Nintendo DS games on my iPhone.

Not being able to take a “mental health” day off, in both high school and college. In high school my parents wouldn’t let me (though I don’t fault them for that), and in college it was hard to keep up if I even missed one lecture. As an adult with a job , if I need a day to decompress, I can decide to take off tomorrow and nobody can tell me no. In school it was hard to keep on going with the tank on empty.

Ketchup wings is diabolical

For real. I moved recently, and tried one of the best rated dispensaries in the area. The place legitimately had a bouncer and all the other staff were in lab coats. Felt like buying in a forensics lab, shit was unnerving

The worst. Our IT is outsourced to some bottom-of-the-barrel garbage company, and they both have no idea what they are doing and work in a different timezone, so you have to wait a working day for responses like ‘did you try turning it off and on again?’. Everyone just emails the head of IT with their issues, which defeats the whole point of the system.

I feel like, depending on your age at the time, this is more on her than you. I’m an adult, and I don’t buy myself clothes that can’t handle the normal setting on my washer and dryer. I know it would be a case of when, not if, I’d forget. No way I’d trust a child to pay attention to something like that.

I don’t know how others are, but my HSA covers catch-all ‘birth control’. If you can reasonably justify it as birth control, they just accept it. Yes, that includes condoms too.

Happy Pi Day

Immigration is very difficult, time consuming and expensive. Hiring someone already in the country is easy, quick and free.

I can absolutely see how removing street parking increases visibility and decreases accidents. Too many times I have to pull out into a road almost blind because my line of sight to traffic is blocked by an enormous SUV / pickup until I am partly in the intersection.

100kg person is 80kg water -> 20kg not water

For them to be 90% water -> 20kg not water of a total of 200kg -> 180kg water

180kg water after drinking - 80kg water before drinking = 100kg water must be consumed

I currently work at a business that uses a similar method to the probationary period, and I hate it. It’s definitely one of those things that sounds good on paper, but in practice I would love to move away from.

We use a proprietary system in my field, and train a couple of members of each department to be able to submit stuff into it (think Concur / NetSuite). It takes about three months to become proficient enough that I don’t have some form of issue with everything you submit. This means I can spend months training someone, just for them to be let go and the next person roll in.

Training people is expensive in both cash for the business and the time of those around them. Hiring correctly once would make my life a lot easier.

For me it is a lie, I do care about politics, but I don’t discuss it with friends or family. Feigning ignorance is the easiest way out. I’ve been the third wheel in a ‘discussion’ where two people argue politics and it’s not a nice position.

Thanks for sharing, this was a wonderful story.
