@artsch00lreject 24 hours is the worst part of it, you’ll be fine like an hour or two later

@0xDith I don’t love the fact that I went from 40k/week exp to 3k and am doing the same stuff

Some love to fud Abstract, but the reality is, on a pound for pound basis versus chains who raised 25x more than they did.. They’ve outperformed on basically every metric. Ofc, this has been made possible by a community of believers. So the question is, do you believe they’ll do right by you guys when the time comes? I have no reason to suspect they won’t - community is in their DNA. It’s just gonna take longer than you and most likely they would’ve liked. Shit happens, that’s life, business, markets, and cycles. It’s gonna be a long bear if you want to spend it whining on the timeline.

@amritwt Every time I see videos of people making these arguments to cops they get arrested and the world is glad for it

Peter Thiel is driving with his friends far more aggressively than necessary like a racetrack. His driving eventually attracts the attention of the California Highway Patrol, and he is pulled over. When the officer asks if he knows how fast he was going, the others in the car feel a mix of relief and anxiety, glad the reckless driving has stopped but nervous about the consequences. Thiel, however, remains completely calm and composed. Instead of answering directly, he questions the very idea of speed limits, suggesting they might not make sense as a concept. He goes further, framing speed limits as a potential violation of personal freedom and even hinting that they could be unconstitutional. The officer is left silent.

@zerohedge Who the fuck leaks to insider

*MICROSOFT CHIEF DIVERSITY OFFICER LEAVING MARCH 31 : INSIDER *MICROSOFT MAKES SWEEPING OVERHAUL OF HR ORGANIZATION: INSIDER

@GeriPerna $38 trillion in printed money out of thin air. Inflation killed the middle class.

When I worked at Macy's back in the 80's, people who worked there raised families on what they made. It was their career. I remember the guy in electronics retired after 30 years, and my boss in the cash office did the same. The guys who worked in the suit department did very well for themselves. Despite that, the store profited greatly every year, and we were given a beautiful Christmas party in appreciation. What changed in this country? When did it become nearly impossible to support oneself at a job that didn't require a degree or technical school?

@brianbeers If you’re interested I have a guy that does a bunch of my commercial and residential electric accounts. Works with a bunch of large multiple franchisees too.

I just realized I’m getting SCREWED on utility bills Costing me over $100,000 Paying $0.18 vs market rate of $0.09 Literally double the cost! Thats $450 last month at one shop Most of my shops are overpaying $250 36 shops x $250 x 12 mo = $108,000 Hopefully I can find a decent provider to negotiate a better deal to push this is $125,000 savings per year

@ApothemT99022 @MaryBowdenMD I agree. Med school and residency program acceptance should be PURELY based on meritocracy. The consequences of maintaining such standards may mean more immigrant acceptances. I’m okay with that.

@jaapyft @MaryBowdenMD You said that US grads who didn't match are unqualified. Maybe that's because they were accepted into med school on the basis of DEI. An easy fix would be for med school admissions to be purely meritocratic. Then we wouldn't need to haul in foreign docs who barely speak English.

1367 US medical students did not get a US residency spot. 6733 international, non-US medical students got a US residency spot.

@ChrisLandauUSA There’s so much crime police don’t even police anymore. They don’t have the resources and wherewithal. Imagine getting your car stolen and the police are just like here’s your report number good luck with insurance. Sad state of affairs.

Last fall, as my 86-year-old father-in-law lay dying of cancer at his home in Lakeland, Florida, the pool guy told my wife—who was tending to her dad—that he was owed $2,000 for past services. He claimed that he’d left my father-in-law’s check “out in the rain” and it had been ruined. Although distraught over her father’s situation, my wife is a sensible person and asked to see the “ruined” check before writing a new one. Weeks pass, and the pool guy starts to get pretty aggressive about demanding payment, before he finally produces the “ruined” check on which he also claims to have spilled ink (!)—and shows her many other similarly “ruined” checks. My wife logs into her father’s bank account and sees that the check—in perfect condition—had been cashed by the pool guy months earlier. So he’s obviously trying to take advantage of her vulnerable situation to scam her. We were outraged and concerned that he’d pull this stunt on others, so we immediately contacted the Polk County Sheriff’s Department. We were assigned a Detective to whom we presented the evidence: emails demanding payment, the copy of the bogus “ruined” check, and the bank’s copy of the intact check that was cashed. Alas, they’ve now ghosted us since we last reached out 3 months ago asking for an update. And that brings me to my point: I don’t know what’s happened in our country, but our law enforcement agencies and prosecutors seem more interested in doing their paperwork than in actually enforcing the law. I hope we can change this before people stop bothering even to bring wrongdoing to the authorities’ attention, as has happened in many other countries. The rule of law requires enforcement of the law!

Something to note - mcds has about 5x more employees and 5x more locations than CFA nationally. Just from a statistical and geographical standpoint, you’ll find a wider variety of employees and locations for mcds. I’ve found plenty of mcds with the same level of care and service you attribute to cfas.

@McFranchisee @McDonalds What about CFA? How much more do they pay? No matter where I go, they consistently have some of the nicest employees ever. And they almost never mess up my order. And they're all absolutely mobbed.

🚨 My @McDonalds AMA starts now. Drop your weird and curious questions below. I’ll answer every non-duplicate serious question (nothing confidential, related to my bank account, or who I am… 🥸). No DMs - let’s go! 🍔🍟

@jw728 @McFranchisee @MarioOfMeriden @McDonalds I think I have half a case, you need some?

@McFranchisee @MarioOfMeriden @McDonalds Sensitive subject, got any tins left?

That’s how I started off initially but with our volume and being in a low income area with a significant amount of frivolous disputes it became almost cost prohibitive to spend hours disputing every dispute. Loop also works with a flat fee unlike otter and they help prevent store down time. If you’re doing the volume and have a lot of disputes, they’re worth looking into

@jaapyft Choose an office day and do it once a week for all platforms. Most efficient way

$25 DoorDash order. DoorDash: -$7.50 Food: -$7.50 Container: -$1.00 Labor: -$5.00 What's left: $4.00 Customer disputes. DoorDash refunds them. Doesn't call. Doesn't text. Doesn't even leave a note. What's left: -$21.00 But hey, we're "partners."

@jurgen_nauditt Lol shut up jurgen

What do Japanese people think about the obsequious behavior of their Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi during the state dinner at the White House? She is visiting the most corrupt, narcissistic US president of all time, who is currently trying to plunge the entire world into chaos, and she is dancing with joy.

@metanphetamina @purplepingers Govts should never bail out companies, I agree. Thats another form of socialism.

@jaapyft @purplepingers All historical data also shows the private sector would rather have workers as slaves while begging the government to rescue them once they go bankrupt

Billionaires shouldn’t exist.

@candidcamcam @purplepingers Never said govts shouldn’t exist. In fact their only purpose should be things like enforcing anti trust laws and managing emergency services.

@jaapyft @purplepingers Without a government (even a wasteful one) to enforce anti-trust laws, the most efficient billionaire eventually becomes a "private government," stifling the very innovation that made them rich.

@candidcamcam @purplepingers Maybe true a hundred years ago but when govts have to outsource all the actual production of these things to private companies it tells you everything.

@jaapyft @purplepingers Private capital rarely builds things with no immediate ROI, such as rural roads, basic scientific research, or national defense. Without "inefficient" government spending, the infrastructure billionaires use to build wealth wouldn't exist.

@necros111 @purplepingers Retard of the year.

@jaapyft @purplepingers Gov always spends money better than the private sector. Always

@j_fishback Now tell me what we could’ve done with the $2 trillion we spent on “infrastructure” during the Biden presidency that disappeared in a black hole.

Would you rather spend $200 billion to bomb Iran or…? A: give every teacher in America a $62,500 bonus B: provide downpayment assistance for 20 million young families C: build 1,300 rural hospitals

@jedirich_ @Bellagio You cannot endlessly increase revenue while decreasing guest counts. Eventually, it catches up.

Sure… Vegas is “dead.” Meanwhile, inside the Bellagio Conservatory — packed every day. Here’s the reality people don’t want to admit: Vegas didn’t die… it filtered. Post-Covid, they let anyone in just to survive. Cheap rooms, chaos, TikTok fights, people crying about $20 water in the desert. Now? That era’s over. Prices went up. Vibe cleaned up. And the people who can actually afford to be here showed back up. If you think Vegas is dead… you’re probably just not the target customer anymore. And judging by the crowds — they’re perfectly fine with that.
