Good is a matter of opinion. If a lot of people are enjoying it. Yes it’s a good movie. I don’t like the movie but my opinion isn’t everyone’s opinion

You know more nickle back songs than nirvana.
“Pretty good?” You’ve heard of the movie. It must be pretty good even if we haven’t watched it.

I get what you’re saying and to put away all the jokes….
Yes it would be exactly the goal because of capitalism. The camps would be private owned (probably by trump)
They would have very short food and a high workload.
It’s not dub dub dos. Labor camps won’t be death camps but they will be work you to death camps. Privately owned slavery.
People with adhd work well in groups… but a group of 200 all with adhd… you aren’t going to get a lot done.

Omits a very big problem. I once heard of a guy eating a head of lettuce at his sink while pouring ranch on it.
That’s funny in a depressing way. Single guy eating lettuce over sink. Now that seems like it’s going to be all of us really soon. “There’s no water so we all have to eat over b the sink because we can’t use dishes and all we could afford at the grocery was these potatoes and some garlic spray. Be careful children the potatoes is hot and you have to use your hands to eat it”
Sorry I’m kind of a pessimistic person right now lol
- Comment on What should we actually turn our aggression towards? 1 week ago:
I’m my home town as a child we took a field trip to the DuPont wetlands. Wetlands near the DuPont plant.
I hadn’t thought about that field trip until just now.
We made plaster casts of animal footprints and brought them home to our parents.
The thing is we didn’t go out looking for animal footprints. They had rubber molds ready for us to use.
Didn’t think much of it at the time but as an adult I’m sitting here thinking “holy shit DuPont is using children to make it seem like there still plenty of animals near the DuPont plant.

Good luck getting us to work effectively lol
That’s rfk just being stupid. He doesn’t have that kind of power.
Also that’s a massive swath of the population it’s not that easy. It would take a lot of time and resources. Which gives me time to go see my cousins.

“They will waive that if they have to”
“If”
“they have to”
The further down you are on the list the less likely they’ll need you… and the more time you have to visit you’re cousin overseas if it starts looking to hot outside… in Minecraft of course.
The second thing is rfk can get rid of whatever he wants but people are going to need that thing still. He can ban heart medicine but when a recruiter asks about your health you can still bring up your are supposed to be on medicine and you can’t function without it.
The heart condition excludes you regardless… or… moves you down the list and you have more time to play Minecraft before you have to go visit that cousin of yours.

So what you’re saying… just so I’m clear and we both are on the same page:
Are insinuating the some are born to wave the flag (the red white and blue) but that ain’t you? Well that is unfortunate, son.

Just say you have adhd or some other ailment and require a lot of meds. For most of you that’s probably true. Hell, my medication pile is bigger than my meals.

There’s a quote in assassins creed . I think the third one.
“All I need is a beer in one hand and a titty in the other” I’d the best I can rember the quote.
I can’t drink beer, I’m a mixed drink guy. Also Im asexual so I don’t need the titty either.
“I don’t need much” me either lol.

Also on a lighter note, I don’t believe in Nebraska. It’s a myth. I’ve never met a person from Nebraska and neither has anyone one else. I’ve never seen a Nebraskan license plate. Is it Nebraskan? Nebraskanight? Nebraskanought?
Do you guys have austronoughts or something? Or is it just corn?
The next town over from me is having a dispute over repaint the water tower that currently features someone you’ve never heard of and his (music?) career.
Anyway I suspect Nebraska news is that all the time.
To be clear I’ll take my stereotype card. I’m from Texas. Yes I had horses but not everyone from Texas did… yes I rode it to school for special events but it wasn’t a day to day a thing. We had a car.
What does Nebraska have? Elephants? My god do you guy have like mammoths or something. I bet you have a good hockey team. I don’t watch sports but it sounds like a Nebraska thing “Nebraska mammoths”
I know sports teams are normally named after a city but I can’t think of a single city in Nebraska. Nebraska city? My good is the state capital Nebraska city and it has an amazing zoo and a board walk are that’s kinda dangerous after sundown?
Nebraska isn’t real

I’ve got bad news for you about capitalism in general.
Dollar tree isn’t specifically bad. In fact I recommend working there if you need a lot of experience really quickly. It’s “easy “ in that way. You’ll move up faster than you would at Walmart.
But yeah most stores regardless of brand there is ALOT more going on than you see. Like someone dropping dead in line 10 min before you walked in. If the store manager is running the register at any store something very bad happend s/happening
- Comment on Also, in my state, all the drivers are the worst 4 weeks ago:
Actually the worst part of all is people died at stores. Nothing that was our fault but yeah, I saw people die and didn’t even list that as one of the “sad things” it was just a tuesday
- Comment on Also, in my state, all the drivers are the worst 4 weeks ago:
I totally get that and thought about it. People reading it might think differently and I wanted to warn them. Not specifically you.
Funny story though: my ex wife lived in the same small town as me and she told me “you’re employees were talking shit about you”
“Well yeah… I’m the boss. We all talk shit about our bosses “
“Do you want to know what they said “
“Nope.‘if it’s important they’ll talk me directly “

In more ways than people realize. I’ve got so many heartbreaking stories.
My record for most drugs found in the bathroom was six baggies of crystal. One of my jobs as GM+ was “he’s been in the bathroom for a really long time… and there’s no noise in there”
“Alright I get the narcan from my car (we weren’t allowed to keep it in the building but sometimes you need narcan)”
Another horrible story is the time I spent all day stomping on baby Jesus. Products have to be destroyed so not peasants can take them out of the trash. Surprisingly a lot of people didn’t want to stomp on Jesus Christmas ornaments. So I went around to all the store to stomp on Jesus for them.

Sorry I thought it was obvious if you think about it.
It was dollar tree. I worked the transition from family dollar-dollar tree- dollar tree plus.
What I can say good about dollar tree is I went from part time cashier on Christmas for extra money to running stores in 6 months. I opened 7 stores, lead the stocking teams, helped out at dozens of stores and was “person you call” when you don’t know who to call. DMs called me. On the other hand i had a mental breakdown (litterly I was hospitalized for close to a month then I moved home with my mother that’s how damaging the work was under that one specific district manager) so dollar tree is a great place to move up but it’s like… Harvey Weinstein…. Yeah he can make you a star but at a cost.
Lol sorry I have ptsd lol

I worked for a dollar branded store they would monitor the companies Reddit for employees that were being saying something bad.
They’d look thru the account for pictures of the store layout or anything identifiable. Like the weather on certain days were specifically helpful yes.

I understand your dismay. Believe me I’m not saying the behavior is right. I’m just describing what is.
You nailed it. They will no call no show to appointments to try out wedding cake samples. Giving blood isn’t even fun. They only made the appointment because they didn’t want to look selfish for the blood drive people.
- Comment on A heart-warming story 5 weeks ago:
I wish that wouldn’t happen… does it really seem wild though? People skip all kinds of appointments without calling.
