Maybe the nuggets at that location are close to their expiration date so they’re only selling larger sizes to get rid of them faster?

You read the same article I did buddy, I don’t have any other information. If you disagree with my assessment of it that’s fine, I’m not going to sit here and copy/paste the whole article for you though.
Well, it comes in handy as a mini pry tool, a mini scraper, and on occasion it can even work as an improvised screw driver! You can also use it to play the guitar in a pinch lol
Yes. It says it quite clearly in the article above. That’s where I read it.
It was rejected because the settlement would have made the company bulletproof against any further civil suits and effectively left the most villainous people with billions of dollars
Why would he do that to himself when he can just pay someone to do it for him?
I don’t have the invoice anymore but I think it said it was around $1300
It can be overwhelming for people when they first start, but after a while you eventually learn to expect it lol
I can tell you from experience that someone like this probably makes up a reason to call in once or twice a month at least and claims they are taking their business elsewhere EVERY TIME for years and years lol
Our chief weapon is surprise! Surprise and fear! Fear and surprise… Our TWO weapons are fear and surprise… and ruthless efficiency. Our THREE weapons are fear, and surprise, and ruthless efficiency… and an almost fanatical devotion to the Pope. Our FOUR… no… Amongst our weapons… Amongst our weaponry… are such elements as fear, surprise… I’ll come in again.
I got this wonderful grey/brown sweater once that I loved. It was just big enough that I would describe it as “comfy”. I decided to wear it to work one day and was immediately told I looked like Gimli in that LOTR scene where he tries to wear human sized armor… 😭
A few years ago I had to get picked up by an ambulance, and got to pay $500 for the privilege.
That was the cost with insurance, and my job actually has pretty good insurance…
You’ll need to make a licensing deal, like Google and OpenAI have done, to use Reddit content for model training and other commercial purposes.
So it’s not actually about protecting anyone’s data, or making the internet a nicer place to be at all, Huffman is just mad that they’re potentially missing out on more revenue streams. I can’t say I’m surprised
Here’s a little scenario that played out at work the other day…
Dramatis personae:
M - who is Me. Customer service agent extrodinaire.
C - who is a dumbass cranky customer
Our scene opens on your humble narrator diligently toiling at his work station
M: Thank you for calling The Company, my name is M, may I have your name please?
C: yeah yeah, my name is C, and I got a lot of problems with you people! Do you know how many times that damned robot voice tried to send me messages? I just want to talk to a person dammit!
M: I’m so sorry to hear you’re having a bad experience sir! I’ll be happy to help you with anything you need, but it does appear you have enabled two factor authentication, so I’ll need to send a link to your phone so I can access your account
C: THIS IS FUCKING RIDICULOUS! YOU CAN’T JUST TELL ME WHAT I WANT??? I PAY YOU PEOPLE A FORTUNE EVERY MONTH AND I CAN’T EVEN ASK A DAMNED QUESTION??? THIS COMPANY IS A FUCKING JOKE!!!
M: Yes sir, I know the enhanced security requirements can be frustrating, but unfortunately we’ve had to update them in order to make sure our customers accounts remain secure. It should just take a moment for me to send the message though and all you have to do is click the link! Can I go ahead and send it to your number on file?
C: are you fucking kidding me here? Is this what I pay for every goddamned month??? ALL I WANT TO DO IS ASK A QUESTION AND YOU ARE REFUSING TO HELP ME!!! GET ME YOUR SUPERVISOR! NOW!
M: again sir, I understand how frustrating this can be. Unfortunately in order to protect your security, I cannot give you any information or transfer you to anyone else until we have verified your account. If you would prefer not to verify the account that is certainly your right though. Was there anything else I can help you with today?
C: (sighs dramatically) fine… just send me the goddamned thing… I’m leaving this joke of a company tomorrow though.
M: well sir I would hate for you to have to go to a competitor who doesn’t value your security as much as we do here at The Company. I’ll send that message out. You should be getting it right… now
(Mr C grumbles incoherently as he clicks the link. It takes him all of two seconds.)
C: THERE! I did what you ORDERED! Now will you PLEASE help me with my account???
M: Absolutely sir! What can I help you with today?
C: I have gotten at least 20 messages from you people today telling me some bullshit about approving an order being placed on my account! I DIDN’T ORDER ANYTHING!!! DO YOU PEOPLE EVEN KNOW WHAT YOU’RE DOING OVER THERE???
(I pause to take a brief respite and collect my thoughts as I feel a little piece of my soul dying)
M: That is a very serious issue sir! It appears someone was attempting to access your account online, and nearly managed to place an order for almost $5000 worth of equipment! It looks like the order was canceled because they couldn’t get past your (here it comes) enhanced two factor authentication requirements.
C: …oh. Thank you have a nice day (click)
(I scream internally, yet god does not listen)
END SCENE
Neo thrash looks an awful lot like vintage thrash
It still seems to be in better taste than most of the more typical tramp stamps I’ve seen lol
And??? And what??? I need closure on this anecdote dammit!!!
I drilled a little hole in one of my guitar picks and added it to my keychain. It comes in handy for all sorts of things!
They won’t give us wireless ones unless there’s some kind of medical exception… The managers get them but we don’t. I would buy my own but every time I try to use any of my own equipment IT freaks the fuck out about it
That’s hilarious! I used to love that game and I still rock the soundtrack sometimes lol
