Exactly! And the city my office is in, is bougie as fuck. There are no sandwiches under $12. These dudes were going out for executive lunches @$50+ per person. They would invite me and I’d say the same thing, “what? No. You know how much you pay me”… and they would laugh every time, walk across the parking lot, and drink themselves silly.
I had an old boss that said RTO was because the service business’ were loosing money. Thing is, only upper management could afford to live near work. I lived 4 cities away and had an hour commute each way. Who was taking care of my community?
…all while I watched every service business price themselves out of existence while still taking advantage of their staff’s wages.
It’s absolutely disgusting how Jeffe gained the means to run his empire, but you have to admit, going from a school teacher to a guy world leaders bow to, is a bonkers story arc.
This is the proper use of a civil defense force. I miss hearing the good stories from the National Guard and FEMA. It’s sad when the greatest hero stories from the LA fires (for example), were other countries sending us their heroes.
There are plenty of rural fire trucks that have to carry their own water and when that starts to run dry, they already made time for the on-call water haulers to arrive and act like a hydrant for the engine.
2% by weight (not volume) will work just fine.
The most life changing therapy for me was Physical Therapy. For years I was going to a chiropractor for neck pain or I’d just crack my neck myself, nothing worked. Then I got into a Motorsport accident and was assigned a PT named Doug who worked with me for three months and gave me a personalized workbook to keep going at home. The neck pain was a pinched nerve in my shoulder. If I feel it getting stiff again, a few stretches and it goes away. I love you, Doug!
It’s hard for Americans to understand life outside of the big cities in Japan. There’s just no other races but Asian. Indian food, Korean/Chinese labor, and Malaysian tourism. Seeing a white person in some cities is like seeing Big Foot. The point being, if you try to speak the language, nothing else matters to the Japanese. Even if you’re shit at it (like me), the respect comes from the attempt to speak Japanese, not the fluency.
One trick. If you get REALLY lost and need to get somewhere, hold a train map upside down and hopelessly stare at the ceiling. A nice elderly person will usually stop to help you… again, because you’re trying to understand.
Th BBQ scene in Argentina is the best in the world. As a citizen it would be nice to have a free vacation. Work my way back north, and have a fat lawsuit ready to submit when I got back.
Once or twice a year. I grew up in the south and it’s as close to southern breakfast as I can find on the west coast. Mom and pop shops taste better but close every few months.
Thank you! I didn’t click on the link. The website must have been really bad because an AD still managed to make it into your transcription 😆
