Yeah, honestly it’s crazy but I also understand. In Seattle there are some real dumps out there, but the dump isn’t what they’re selling for 170k. That’s just the value of the land. A townhouse on a quarter acre is 500k out here, they probably took a picture of the structure so the buyer knows they’ll have to knock it down
Edit: Lol I absolutely love them (I love old houses) but fuck HOA’s and the price. Not to mention I couldn’t see acreage listed anywhere or I could just be to stoned and missed it.
They’re condos, there is no land. The houses are cute, I’ll give you that, but these are glorified apartments. You own the inside walls of the unit you buy, that’s pretty much it.
I’m lucky to have had a great job going on seven years, but the decade prior to that I was in an awful place, but this meme speaks to me because I did just that. I had a boss who didn’t want to lose me, so he got my interview for an internal move (that would have been a promotion) pulled.
That’s a pretty monumentally shitty thing to do, so after that, I did the absolute bare minimum. It was a lot of fun when I put in my two weeks.
The gall of some managers. They’re going to lose that person anyway - might as well be on good terms where the potential of working together in the future is still a possibility.
It was one of the few times I’ve nearly lost it in the office. And the manager who did it was shit at his job, hence why he had to go to such measures to keep people around.
I’m guessing that’s because the international flights that Americans use instead are from other countries that does not have first class areas, in that everyone gets the same seating and leg space.
Such a disgusting socialist ploy. The CIA should coup the pilot and copilot and divvy up the plane in “desirables” and “undesirables”, to then pin them against each other.
I don’t have a sidewalk in front of my home but where I work is on a walkable urban street. Clearing the sidewalk when it snows is such an enjoyable thing to do I look forward to it. Pedestrians walking by sometimes say thanks, the woman across the street brought me coffee once. Her husband uses the bus stop so I always clean the bench. Technically I’m getting paid but I do much more than I’m obligated to, sometimes I’ll clear a couple driveway skirts.
I don’t really care about airlines, but AA is the only airliner that flies out of the local regional airport (only flies to a bigger airport a few hours away), and I’ve never had any issues with them.
The worst I’ve had was having to listen to a flight attendent talk about God because I was on the last row.
We usually fly AA on flights to Europe. We live near KC, so our choices are AA or United (IIRC). And we prefer AA’s time schedule. Outside of major cities there is little choice to many destinations.
They’re right. Few buy First Class tickets because the uptick in comfort and service from Business Class is tiny for the increase in cost. I fly Business but would never pony up for First.
I’ve flown on AA’s international business and first class. The difference is negligible in terms of the seats and most people in them were complimentary upgrades since they couldn’t fill the seats.
The bigger differences were on the ground with the dining and check in. So all AA is doing is creating a “Business Plus” category that gets you the first class amenities on the ground and then a business class seat. This lets them put more business class seats on the plane and open things up to a bigger revenue stream.
AA first has been a joke for a long time. It was an ever so slightly better seat and they served one extra course - a soup - but was otherwise identical to business class service. You can’t charge thousands more for soup.
First class has been dying for years - and the only airlines that will do it, it’s really a prestige thing more than a profit center.
AA is the last United States based airline to even have one. This move is an industry-wide trend now that lie-flat business class seats are standard. Business class has gotten much nicer in the past 10 years and taken away the customers that previously would have flown in first.
I’d rather fly Qatar qsuites or many other si-enclosed business class seats than the first class ones remaining on European airlines like British Airways, Lufthansa, of air France. And doing so is a fraction of the price.
