It was Europe and US. But either way I feel like we have to conform to the other regions all the time.
Yeah, that’s some BS.

Yea, I've got those too. Mine started out at 6pm then nobody called in, so they moved them up a bit. :disgust:

Yeah I would prefer to work either earlier or later hours than the standard 8-5. I like to have some daylight on one end or the other in winter. It is also nice to have time to fit some biz hour appointments in if they are ever needed. Plus better commuting back when that was a thing.

I work 10-7 (sort of whenever now though) and I enjoy it.

I pull my clothes from the dryer and toss them on the bed. Then fold and put away in the closet/dresser. :iono:
:dock:

I don't really have an issue with the system, frankly.

Also, now that 75% of my laundry is athletic/cycling ware and stuff, I mostly just move it from the drier to a basket and leave it there until next use. The synthetics don't really wrinkle and :aintcare: about spending time folding all that shit when I wear it every week at least anyway. Yet another way WFH saves time, less laundry.
Half of my shit is hang dry now so I perpetually have clothes hanging all over, but the rest I fold on the top of the washer with the Flip-Fold which has been a life-changing tool:

Did you know there’s a company that buys you a small plot of land in Ireland so you can legally be called lord?
Scotland I thought?
Probably. I heard the ad on the YMH podcast and thought it was :neat:

Super fun way to make money too. Buy a few acres and sell people 3x3 plots

I had a flip and fold and loved it. Then it broke, and I attempted to fix it with tape, but it was never the same again.

Then I got married and :tits: thought it was ridiculous and threw it out. I told her I won't fold laundry anymore, and she was OK with that. :mindblown:

I’m able to throw everything in one load to wash and dry for the week other than towels.

I need tot the washing my gym clothes separate at some point and adding something to get the old sweat smells out of them. A few of the really old shirts are pretty funky even when coming straight from the wash and dryer. Should probably trash them, but I’ll try baking soda or vinegar to remove the smell first.

ITT I learned about the flip and fold. I would never buy one because of Infamous logic but if I had one I would use it.

I didn't buy it, my sister bought it for me as a christmas gift when I was in college and made fun of my terrible folding skills. That thing was legit.

My wife can fold with :mindblown: precision and she claims to like it, so whatever.

In this two day training for managers and the whole thing is a mess. Bunch of technical errors and breakout groups aren’t working and everyone is just lying and bullshitting to the main group.

No. Some third party internal training.

I am paying 25% attention, say a few good points every few minutes and then leave.

Spicy McNuggets are :fuckyeah:

Hopefully they'll become a permanent menu item. It doesn't make up for eliminating all-day breakfast :doe:

Better than Wendy's spicy nuggets?
Eh, maybe? Just different and usually cheaper. $2 for 12 with the promo today. I do like the sweet & sour :sawce: that Ronald has better than anything from Wendy.

I think a standard Donnie's nugget is better than the standard Wendy's so worth a shot. I'm a hot mustard guy normally doe.
Oh in that case WacArnold's spicy is definitely better. I probably like the standard Wendy's better but these new McSpicys were great today.
