You’re lucky, I wish my bathroom had a couch

Not sure why but as I read your post I concluded in my head that it kind of makes sense because the only convictions they have, if it can even be called that, is egocentric, while hers are principled and selfless.

There’s a ten mile stretch of road that I live in a community off of. It’s a really busy road. Grocery store, gas stations, fast food restaurants, one of the elementary schools, one of the middle schools, and the high school. So while it’s normally busy it’s insane during school start and release times. There is a five mile section in the middle of that ten mile stretch where the sidewalk is on the opposite side of the main road for some reason. They decided to make bike lanes by painting lines and bike symbols on the road on the sidewalk side for the entire stretch of road. While they have crosswalks with lights at all the regular intersections, at each end of that five mile ‘bike lane’ they painted a dashed yellow line path across traffic to transfer the bike path to the other side and put blinky amber lights on each side of the road.

I’m fairly certain you would need to be suicidal to knowingly traverse that bike path from start to finish. It’s bad enough you’re kissing mirrors the entire ride but then you would need to cross a busy street, twice, with no actual assurance anyone will actually stop for you. The cherry on top is there’s also an increased number of student drivers on the road regularly from the high school.

I understand the bitching and they are certainly stupid. I get defensive about it a bit because not everybody has the head on their shoulders to separate things, read the online discourse, and screw themselves over. Everyone knows it’s stupid, just play the damn game. I don’t want some junior inexperienced person setup for failure because they got themselves a hot head is all. Appreciate the clarification.

That person is an idiot without any actual real world experience. Good on you for sharing useful information. I’ve had colleagues and employees like him lose their job before even being hooked up because of their shit attitude and my advice to folks boils down to the same. Be respectful, be transparent, even if embarrassing (there is nothing they haven’t heard before), and just give your “yes”, “no”. Best case you don’t see them again for 3-5 years, worst case it’s inconclusive and they will run it again a couple times and you will be more used to what’s expected. Go in with a shit attitude with your head up your ass and nobody is feeling bad that you pissed away a salary/job security perk and will never think about you again after a weeks time as they press on checking the box and taking care of themselves.

I’ve had the same hp laserjet pro printer, just checked Amazon, since March 2015. It has worked without issue through various windows, iOS, and Linux systems. Using native drivers, cups, and the web interface on my lan. I would argue it is one of the most reliable and dependable devices I’ve owned and has maintained compatibility with anything and everything without requiring anything be done to it other than I’m on my third cartridge that I purchased a pack of 2 of for $26.98 in October of 2021 which still seem to sell for $25… I may just order another pack.

I don’t understand the persistent whining about printers. If you need color or graphics send them to CVS or some shit to have them printed on a professional quality printer and paper for less than it used to cost to develop a roll of film or print it off at work on a high end laser color printer. I can’t believe people still piss their money away on throw away ink jet printers. I know otherwise seemingly intelligent people that can’t be swayed that they are actually throwing money away because “I got a new printer for less than the ink cost!!!”, yeah dumbass, you are generating e-waste and getting cartridges with barely any ink in them, you didn’t decode the matrix.

Printers are of exceptional quality in my experience.

Edit: I also spent just under two years navigating up the system admin ranks as a printer admin and managed almost 300 laser printers supporting over 3,000 users and I’m fairly certain most issues admins create for themselves, or had a prior admin create for them, because they aren’t willing to really understand how to setup a print server and just make it work asap. Once the server(s) and printers are setup and configured correctly the only maintenance any of those printers required was after well over 100k pages.

And it only took one comment

They can keep all the other stuff if they are giving me 6,400 million dollars

Might not be a bad idea, anything beyond a single HELOC gets taxed 25% off the top, or something else that someone smarter about economics than I would certainly be able to come up with.

If you steal the holy water and then drink a bunch of it don’t you get Holy powers or something though? Chug the whole thing down then take over the church. Once you have access to all the holy water for free it’s just a matter of time before you become a god yourself.
