    feels like I'm getting screwed

    RANT 
    Welcome! My leaving the job story is similar, except it was my birthday. Literally the day after I left my job (my birthday), my car started going CLANK CLANK CLANK, and then as I dropped it off at the shop, I tweaked my knee and as I limped towards the bus stop, a drugged out crack whore pushed...

    101 Ways To Annoy Potential Customers - #1 Lie By Misrepresentation

    PEOPLE 
    4. Why is everything such a f*cking mystery? Probably this is more like #3.75 hiding--either Google can't locate it or the website I find doesn't have it (prices, location, MEASUREMENTS) or the tracking sucks (FedEx I'm looking at you). Things I have looked for lately that are a big mystery...

    FEATURED USER 
    What a great feature! Thanks, @SteveO for being the guinea pig. :clap:: But mostly thank you for sharing the dark nitty gritty and the ugly details. I much prefer hearing that someone lost all their money and their house and came back from it than a mushy gooey feel good business story, because...

    Alertness app

    That already exists, it's either on a GPS app or a feature on some rental cars. I know someone who was driving a long distance and it kicked in, telling them to take a break.

    Conversations over the Holiday...

    PEOPLE 
    We (my enormous family) didn't have any particular fast lane/slow lane discussions over Easter but this did make me think of a few discussions I've had with them. One relative (MBA)--every conversation is about retirement, whose date keeps getting further and further away as they up their...

    The Basics of Pricing

    NOTABLE! MARKETING 
    Interesting thread! And thanks! Rep $ sent. I have been pricing my products for close to 10 years, and I never use $13.00--too scary! I've been hesitant to use less than whole dollar pricing, because things that end in .99 scream "THIS IS A CHEAP KMART PRODUCT", but I think I may just consider...

    HOT! PEOPLE 
    Speechless. I don't know why CSRs are considered the bottom of the totem pole in an organization and seem to have high turnover with a ton of available jobs. Imagine if an organization paid native speakers-in-country to think outside the chat box? How much more business might they do if they...

    RANT 
    ^^^^^This was me in a universe far far away. I still hate accounting and I only do it because the IRS is scary. I'm also laughing at the "please send me a dollar". Worst. Outreach. Ever. :rofl:

    RANT 
    I can kind of understand why people do this. Early in my self employment career when I sucked because I didn't understand the concept of value, I did reach out to people I knew online. Granted, they were already online friends I had known for years, so it wasn't like, say, emailing Elon Musk. I...

    things that go UNSCRIPTED

    EXECUTION 
    Screw the box! Seriously, I spent too much of my life trying to fit in the box, and when I realized I didn't need a box, everything clicked. A box always belongs to someone else, and the reason you don't fit is because it's not your box.

    This guy hates rich people

    HOT! 
    This guy's problem isn't that other people are rich, it's that he is unhappy. He has no value added purpose that sustains him through financial ups and down. Railing against the rich is not a purpose. :hilarious:
