I am overall pretty annoyed with the situation as it really threw a wrench into my car plans. I was hoping to have the IX be the family car... now I am left without one. And I am also stuck with the I4/Tacoma both of which aren't ideal for said duty. Once I get closure on the IX. I will try and fig...

Plus huge cheerio lob verandas on each side.

NO eating in the fucking car.

Elon is an interesting case study on someone. I think he is equally anti-establishment enough as an individual, but he does well to cut the red tape as much as possible. Polarizing, and I don't like everything he does, nor do I hate everything either. It might seem like a cheap answer but nuance is ...

according to the government no, but we are basically

Fuck the government.

Ye

yes, I am partly bored but partly okay with the situation as it offers me very much needed work-life-balance dealing with 2 kids and a wife with her own business This is so important and undervalued, IMO. Also, did you guys officially jump the broom? according to the government no, but we are basic...

Took Monday-Wednesday off without realizing we have Friday off as observed Veteran's Day. Gonna go in on Thursday to catch up with my direct report and then enjoy the long weekend. One day week is pretty :notbad: Are you still at the same company? yes, I am partly bored but partly okay with the sit...

https://silvercrossus.com/product/silver-crosss-dune-compact-folding-stroller/ I think it's this one.... Woman got it on some epic sale before she popped. I honestly hate most "kid" shit it seems to be designed quite poorly without vehicles in mind. If the kid thing ever happens this is o...

Happy for you man. Life is too short to do something you don't like if it can be avoided and this is an awesome step. Sounds like it's well thought out and you have the spousal support, so why not go for it? No better time than now. While it's sad to see the car go, it sounds like it's part of a bi...

a lot of reddit posts like that are teetering between reality or an exercise in creative writing. a lot of these stories are not even real, just people karma farming on throwaway accounts.

I have no time anymore, my life is a shitshow.

What is "life"? What is "fun"?

Fucking tint shop. I mean it makes sense right. It broke right after tints went on. It’s plausible that they would have dicked with the door panel / speakers while working on it. Wow. Also yeah ridiculous that an unplugged speaker does this to the car, and ridiculous that these computers can’t just...

I cringe at the idea of letting others perform this basic task which can still be fucked up so many ways. Overtightening or undertightening of filter and drain bolt. Failure to use fresh crush washer or simply delete it. Overfilling or underfilling oil. I had not considered this error I will add to...

ok so what happened to the i4? or do you have both i4 and iX?

I am confusion

Bummer. Are they paying you out at least for the last two weeks ? That seems odd to just punt someone like that unless of course you’re going to a competitor of sorts and they got wind Nope they aren't paying out. I'm not going to a competitor they're just fucking losers. The owner is one of those ...

That’s the universe telling you to enjoy your new child instead of posting on dfd

He’s asleep. Not much to enjoy. I’m bored. This is a welcome distraction

just you wait

Wow that is a LOT of tech based anger management problems. tech is supposed to work for humans, not the other way around why not consider an online high yield savings account, and then keep a local bank with a debit/checking to deposit said cash? Wealthfront is at like 4.8% APY, and it goes to 5.x%...

Yea time to move on… capital one is decent fyi. as much as i hate big banks i would just do this, but they don't have a presence here. considered an online only bank, but that makes cash a PITA; not a big deal until the refugees started paying rent in cash. also annoying that even with fed prime ra...

Well fucking your direct reports would be highly unethical and immoral

I will be honest I understand the anxiety surrounding it. You take all 12 or 18 weeks or whatever and the company still functions, hard not to be paranoid that your role might be deemed "irrelevant/replaceable" especially in this economy. Or you feel out of the loop/useless. But I will te...

I find it hilarous that they offer you these benefits and for some reason you are atleast threatened to be terminated actually using it. It's like your car is advertised with their launch control and for some reason warranty is void. The :math: ain't :math: ing This is unique for everyone and depen...

We only get four weeks of paternity leave, :tits: at our company get 12. Seems like everyone uses it no problem though. A few of my neighbors work for the big banks here (BofA, Wells Fargo) and even the dudes take their full 12 or 16 weeks and they’re not even allowed to check email during that tim...

I’d be asking for them to refund a portion of the cost.. Im talking to the corporate first thing tomorrow or tuesday assuming being tomorrow is a labor day. Its not fair and :tits: roomie already got their couch while they ordered at the same time. Only because we wanted the pull out bed for visito...
