Reply to comment by lampShade_44 in TIFU by inadvertently getting my boss fired, making life even worse and now maybe getting fired myself by [deleted]
He somehow DID NOT expect to be handed his ass over and over. The fact that he didn't see this all coming lends so much credence to what an entitled little brat he is. It's rare to witness such a beautiful example of comeuppance. I'm glad I was here for a bit of it. Hopefully he has it in him to truly treat this as a lesson learned. Maybe he'll surprise us all and become a badass boss himself because of it. ¯\(ツ)/¯

Not really. I’ll get it repaired if it’s repairable.

Isn't a bug bug bomb cheaper than a dryer vent and gas?

I don’t think he’d be willing to give me £1000 over something he done four years ago.

Reply to TIFU by buying too much crypto by Colinian18
>10 or 20 is cutting it close, 40 or 50 would probably be better. (Don't laugh, I'm broke af)
Putting your paycheck into crypto is like putting your paycheck into lottery scratch offs or gas station slot machines.
The people who got rich off crypto were the people who ripped people off or made scams in crypto. They preach the myth of the crypto millionaire because they need bag holders for their scams.
Don't be a mark.

I still lived with him. We had more than one controller. He doesn’t work at construction sites, he works on call; he’s a joiner and plumber, not a construction worker. I just want it repaired so I can put it on display. He apologised after I told him it was rare, so no hard feelings.
Also, I bought “all my shit” myself, so how am I ungrateful? I have fucking nothing to be ungrateful for.

Ask your dad for the money it would cost to buy one on eBay. Only seems fair as he ruined it.
Maxhorizon t1_j6eelmc wrote
Sounds like an ungreatful child to me. Likely your Oldman bought all your shit. He was likely using it to unwind from a long day on a construction site. Cut him some slack, if you left it for so long, it had no more value to you than a new one.
Chill out, leave the past behind and move on...

I opened the box up so I could put it on display. I used only about three times. My dad was the one who used it mostly, and I didn’t know he used it.

If you have a controller that only ever had 1000 made, you don't take it out of the box.

You did try to warn them. Sorry that happened and sounds utterly disgusting.

Do you know how breasts work? Because they still require pumping.. so there is time dedicated to that if a woman is going keep lactating, meaning time during the day to pump (20-30 minutes to do it properly), a thermal bag to store breastmilk.. storage at home for breastmilk. You really do not seem to know much about this.. especially based on your comment again about powder. Formula is really expensive. While, yes, people absolutely use it, it adds significant costs if you are dependent entirely on formula.
There are also way more than two countries where modesty laws exist and even more countries where equality is a massive issue.

Unddit is even better. Someone taught me this on a reddit post a few weeks ago. Just put unddit instead of reddit on any reddit post and it reappears! https://www.unddit.com/r/tifu/comments/10mtcya/tifu_by_inadvertently_getting_my_boss_fired/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android_app&utm_name=androidcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

Reply to comment by TheLeftHandedCatcher in TIFU by getting involved with a communist group, all because of a girl by Ingegner-Cane
I'm also American, and yes there was a time where being associated with Communists was "problematic", but not strictly illegal. Also, I find it humorous that many Americans seem to equate Communism as anti-democracy, when it's actually anti-Capitalist. Personally, I think that system built to be purely Communist has too many issues, but also a system built to be purely Capitalist has too many issues as well.
I'm personally in favor of the concept of universal basic income. We keep trying to toot our own horn, claiming to be the "best, wealthiest, most powerful nation", when too many people, including war veterans are homeless. There's no logical reason for the US to have a homelessness problem beyond pure greed. Same goes for malnourishment.

Reply to TIFU by buying too much crypto by Colinian18
Wowee. Crypto is NOT a get rich quick. It is complicated and price gets less volatile and cycles last longer as time passes. You should only invest what you can afford to lose and invest smart, do your research. Don't expect short term profits, don't day trade. Find projects you think are robust and will increase in value in the future and be prepared to hold for a long time, potentially many years.

No… your argument falls short.
Because maternity leave is so much longer, the mom will be with the baby while the father gets nothing. I said this because it means that the scenario described in OP will inevitably occur, due to systemic differences in gender treatment under the laws of 99% of countries. Your argument fails to address that.
About practicality: We have these things called refrigerators, where we can store milk… although many women use powder these days. That’s not why women have more leave.
About your ‘well this is wrong for women’: There are 0 countries where women aren’t viewed as people. I’ve lived in ‘oppressive’ countries (notably a few STAN countries), and women are respected in all of them… Not driving or wearing sexy clothes doesn’t make someone not a person. Although those laws exist in like 2 countries, you’d be shocked how open minded the reality is in those countries.
Lastly: Whether it damages a career or not depends on the career.

Well I'm American and I can remember a time when being associated with any self-identified communist organization could have caused you serious trouble. For the last 30 years this has been way less of an issue, unless one assumes that being a communist implies support for the government or policies of the PRC that has become quite the bogeyman as of late.
Interesting though that this group seems to have pro-Russian sympathies. Interesting given that today's Russia isn't really "communist" so I don't know but that would concern me way more than the "communist" aspect, but then I really have no idea what sort of political groups are active at W. European universities (I believe the people involved are uni students) the only such people I know personally are conservative Catholics lol.

This is true. Certain countries actively suppress certain ideologies. This is part of why I prefaced my statement with "as long as you didn't do/don't do anything illegal".
