Eh i would say the friend zone absolutely exists.

My wife tried to friend zone me early in our relationship. She wanted to date around and still be friends with me. I told her that wasnt ok with me because i had stronger feelings for her than that and id be miserable. I cut ties.

A few months later she asked me on a date out of the blue. I spoke my peace that to me, this was a real date. Well, that was almost 13 years ago and we just had our 9th wedding anniversary

I think this is literally how many times they said “AI” in their presentation, and then they normalized it per length if presentation

Childcare is outrageous. Daycare for my two kids was more than my mortgage every month. Ive been counting down until they were eligible for public schools

Yall dealing with people stealing food? Ive worked in an office setting for almost 20 years and ive not once ever heard of someone taking someone elses food

You think laws matter to the privileged?

I know someone in corporate McDonalds. They were pissed the instant they found out. They have a saying internally, “were not red or blue, were golden.” They intentionally don’t take political stances.

Does this include american football games?

I think because we’ve seen cat 5s do less damage across the nation. The category is for wind strength and doesn’t necessarily corelate with flooding /rain fall

Idk man, I have a federally compliant 1 way pager. So it’s not illegal. We score the highest marks on our DoD security audits every year. Theyre distrubuted from the security office, so I’m sure they do some sort of vetting on each individual one.

We’re a govt contractor, but our civilian govt counterparts use them too

People that work in classified environments. You can’t have smart devices (phones, watches, anything that communicates with the outside) while in these controlled spaces. pagers are acceptable because they’re 1 way communication, so there’s no risk of data leaks from the classified space

I’d like to know … how to be a more interesting candidate

Homie is just trying to be better and being frustrated they aren’t getting feedback on how to be better

Helicopter crashed into a mountain in basically zero visibility fog. Chuck Shumer said that the is suspected no foul play. Sounds to be just an accident. If I remember, this is what brought down Kobes helicopter too

That video provides literally no value. “Spend money on share holders and cut corners.” Examples?

A big part of what’s going on is a reverb of covid. The whole aerospace industry got hammered during covid, which forced a lot of experienced people to retire. We are now seeing what happens when a company with has a ton of tribal knowledge loses a lot of experienced all at once

It does say primary source of news is from cable, that doesn’t mean they don’t use these other platforms.

And you have to believe these people’s social media is an echo chamber of their cable news

My wife does. But she’s a sucker for “a good deal”

I dont ever click on them myself, but if I start searching for something I need/want, and I see a brand I’m familiar with thru advertising, I’m more likely to explore their product, at least. Simply just because, “of I’ve heard of this before”
