I’m eating shitty delivered food (including mcdonalds) and I am losing weight. The problem isn’t “bad food” it’s all about controlling calories intake. The only moment where that might not work is if you have some issues - hormonal imbalance or some sort of other illness. But if you eat less and can maintain / withstand that, you will lose weight.
Never had that issue.
Weak argument. You just ask them upfront for the cost or at least brackets. They can act however they want after adding to that cost. You asked upfront, were given the amount and that’s what you can pay. Otherwise all you are doing is letting peer pressure drive your actions. Also, a fear of surprise charges is about as much of an excuse as anything else. You are risking a lot by not doing a checkup in so many years, and “surprise charges” isn’t a reason to not do it.
Necromancy means you are just really good at healing
I know right? Especially when it’s so good you starve to death. And she’s a nurse too
Actschually yes. Gene Roddenberry said that people in the future don’t care about baldness the way we do. They have the option, it’s probably just so inconsequential that people rarely do it.
Completely ignored the “checkups help prevent issues”. Also, you might catch something that is about to kill you or incapacutate you.
Regular checkups help prevent issues popping up. Also, you not knowing about those issues doesn’t make them go away. And some can cause you to become sick. Dentistry isn’t just for looks.
Carefully.
Or use those shitty two sided tapes that claim they can hold 100kg or something and it turns out it’s if you use the entire roll to hold up the best scenario and only when the roll is new, because it stops being sticky after like a month after production.
Better question. The people with glasses reflect the light under the robe. There are two dudes with glasses that were arrested and third one is the woman with the ring. Where did the second guy with glasses come from?
How is it insane? There are millions of situations where missing teammembers might happen. The flu, holiday season, furry convention. You usually plan for it, but no matter what you do, you can’t plan for everything. Then having someone just not come in means you cannot do what the contract requires.
Getting fired for being denied PTO and then ignoring that and still going is normal. If you can’t plan for shit and people can’t get PTO ever, then it’s a you problem.
Here you don’t. All you need is to do it in advance.
It is laziness or apathy. If for 30 years you were unable to spare $100 for a single checkup, then you are either sick or suck at managing money. And if you still can’t afford that for 30 years, there are organisations that will do it for free - you just need to reach out to them.
Being unable to put aside $100 for a year, year and a half - sure. Being unable to put aside $100 for thirty years? Yeah, nah.
Employment laws don’t protect you from a boss denying PTO because you are needed on that specific date. Imagine having a 24hr devops team. Three guys went drinking together and crashed into a tree last night. They’re fine, but they need checkups and rest, so they have a doctors note. The team now needs to be planned well, but otherwise it is fine. Then someone comes up and says “I need PTO this week”. You tell them “sorry we can’t, too many people are out, we couldn’t get round the clock support like we have in the contract”. And then they leave anyways. And when they leave, the prod suddenly shits itself and there is noone who is there to react for the next 7 hours.
Work life balance doesn’t mean “I get to grab PTO whenever I want to”. That’s why “on demand” days exist.
“When does it stop being self defense?” - not at them turning around. And I’d say you have a right to shoot them till the moment the police come to take over the situation / provide safety for you. Running after someone who is like 500m away to shoot them wouldn’t be self defense anymore obviously. And again - “self defense” isn’t a black and white situation. It’s grey enough where each case needs to be determined individually. But the “bias” belongs with the person whose house they broke into, not with the burglar. A burglar killing someone and saying “they had a gun!!” is 100% murder. A person overreacting / crossing a “line” in self defense deserves leniency if not straight up immunity.
It’s weird. Like, “I read it in his voice” could imply you “tried” to do it conciously. Like I could imagine it as a clown monologue or Goofy saying it. But for me (and possibly for you as well), the voice just happened, as if they were talking to you. No concious choice was made. And all because we looked at a bunch of squiggly lines that have meanings only to the people who know them. And through that meaning they seem to be carrying the voice of the person himself and a recognizable piece of themselves (of their personality, their soul).
The human mind is fucking weird man.
What sort of argument is that. Dude broke into a house. At that point he is a threat and doesn’t magically turn into a harmless person just because they turn around. They might just be jumping into cover to get their own gun. They might be running to a second burglar for help. The first rule in any emergency situation is your safety is paramount. Yours alone. A firefighter won’t jump into a burning building to save a puppy, a medic won’t risk his life to constrain a madman with a knife. They are there to do a specific job - and heroics only looks good on TV or in movies.
Judging situations in hindsight is always so easy. Being in that situation is something else entirely. But it is better to be judged by twelve than carried by six. Again, your safety first - don’t administer aid on a running highway, don’t get closer to burning cars, don’t try to “save” someone getting beaten up. Don’t be a hero.
Rule of HALT - never argue / discuss when you are hungry, angry, lonely or tired. All of these feelings make people unreasonable and they lash out.
Yeah, for sure. The problem is cooking for one. If you are inexperienced, you tend to overcook and then you either waste that or eat the same thing for five days. Also picky eaters sometimes can’t eat the same thing two days in a row, let alone more. Buuut if you treat cooking as “a job” that pays more than ordering out (where you don’t pay with your time), then it is really worth it for sure.
