I used to frequently transfer money between two countries, the process of which required talking to a human at the time. During one such conversation, the Customer Service Representative asked a new question: “What’s the purpose of the transfer?” This immediately took me aback, partly because I didn’t expect the question and partly because, much like your father, it’s none of their fucking business.
After stumbling a bit, I learned the magic phrase “personal use”. After that, every transfer I initiated was for “personal use” until such time as the bank automated the process and I no longer needed to speak to a human to transfer the money across an international border.
I have no earthly idea why “personal use” is acceptable, since it conveys no more useful information than writing nothing, but then it’s not my policy and I don’t care.
After all, Reddit generously hosts our little community, and we’d hate to adversely affect them by making an immediate, detrimental change to that arrangement.
If your work uses Microsoft Teams, you can go into your calendar, click meet now, have a meeting by yourself. Once you’re in there change your status back to available and it won’t change to away, the screen won’t lock, and no one who cares will know. No jiggler, no script
I thought they were so hot at the time. Well, of course, that was like 95% of what the point was with the band so mission accomplished I guess. To celebrate the downfall of Reddit, here's Ne Ver Ne Boysia Ne Prosi of Eurovision 2003. A different age, when Russia was actually seen as pretty OK. It's too bad what has become of Russia because I think their language lends itself well to music. :) Imagine what could have been, a beautiful country stretching through Siberia.
What happened is that the theatre of peace let its curtains fall to the stage, revealing violence behind. For as long as the average person doesn't fight tooth and nail for what is right and good, violence will always return.
Your boss should have asked you to try and reschedule your jury duty if he needed you that badl for an event. I got summoned, called them up in advance and explained my work load slows down on the summer and could I come in then? They postponed it no problem
I'm 49 and I got a notice for jury duty for the first time a couple months ago. You had to call a number every evening to see if you had to come in the next day. I never had to come in. In fact only one day that week had anyone coming in.
Love it. Good for them for sticking to some kind of guns. Reddit’s behavior doubling down this past couple weeks has soured my taste for the place even more. Ready to watch it burn - although I have a feeling it will be a slow, simmering death.
Will be interesting to see what all plays out after July 1st
