  • why is EVERYTHINGGGGG behind a paywall?

  • Interesting insight and I have experienced what you talk about in the earlier years. I really feel like we need some sort of free community of tools and resources we can pay for together as a community either through ads or subscription or something that has a bunch of incredible tools people can use. Like $15 a month to cover all server costs for a bunch of free programs any of us could use

  • I think you and a lot of others are late to the idea that mildly is kinda like a joke. Many things are majorly infuriating. On the reddit, many of their top posts aren't even major. They're catastrophic, just absurd. I've yet to find anything mild

  • Thanks for sharing your experience. Even if it seems insignificant, I know it must've been so hard to go through. That trauma is understandable and makes you human. I appreciate you sharing it.

    I've thought about going into management too. I have 5 years in my industry. I could be manager next. But I've never been trained. Idk how to lead. Idk how to report progress, manage projects, delegate, answer questions I don't have the answers to. Lie to my employees and subordinates as to why they're average even if they're exceptional. Meets expectations, everyone gets that. So many new challenges id have to face I'm nervous about.

    But then again I could just get laid off again after landing a manager job. Who knows? It's terrifying thinking about moving up

    Working in the USA is borderline slavery now

    Jump

  • Yup There's going to be a whole lot more almost people too. Because there's no no refilling program in the USA. What are you supposed to do if you have a Masters in computer science and 5 years of experience? You can't just go back to college for a 60K degree in nursing or become an electrician or something....

  • Every now and then they regurgitate truths to get the broader audience to tap in. Then they say some bullshit like the 2nd half about doing a side hustle moonlighting and saving costs.

  • I get what you're saying, but who do you think they're going to look up to now? It's like Batman where penguin is the big head honcho, and now all the slimy underlings start to look up to him because he gets away with so much, and now everyone else wants to do the same thing because they think there's no consequences except that we have no Batman

  • Lol this same person once told me that he doesn't support LGBT or Black lives matter or any of that because he doesn't agree with those communities and thinks that they are hateful

  • Not sure about moist

    What do you mean by moist? 🤔

    he shouldn’t have to be an outright prick

    I think he has no idea of self-perception. It seems like he is completely oblivious to it.

  • Dude you're comparing something stupidly expensive like liquor to coffee. like what?? 10 years ago, you could get an iced coffee less ice, it had like 5 ice cubes in it. Now they just give you half the amount of coffee what the hell? How can you even justify that? If we're talking about some expensive top shelf liquor that costs $30-80 a bottle, sure, I get that. But this is literally sugary coffee and milk!

  • Are you a corporate apologist or something? cause your reply sounds like the most absurd logic ever. Back in 2010 I remember dunkin giving you more milk if you got a less ice coffee, it wasn't an automated machine.

  • The concept of a mental health trigger refers specifically to something that reactivates a traumatic memory and induces serious distress in the person triggered

    the trauma or stress is that everything costs more now in the USA, and provides diminishing returns. This is definitely a trigger. Everything is more expensive, and every place is giving you less of it than they were a decade ago or more. When I was in high school around the 2000s-2010s, you go to a coffee shop, there was no malicious hyper-profit maximizing bullshit. $2-3 max for an iced latte or coffee, and you could just have it customized. You want more milk, less ice? Sure! Now everything is maximum cost, and no. No, we can't customize that, but it costs 250% more than it did 5 years ago. So yeah, it's triggering, and I can say it's triggering because we are FUCKING TIRED OF THIS SHIT. EVERYTHING COSTS SO MUCH MONEY. $6 for a coffee which is HALF ICE???? I can go get a huge ass bag of ice FOR $3!!!! Why am I paying SIX DOLLARS... FOR A CUP OF ICE?!?!?!?!?1?!?!?

  • The fact that so many in this thread are defending the chain is mind boggling

    Lot of contrarian keyboard warriors on here lately and it's almost like they're disagreeing just for the sake of arguing

  • If you want two espresso shots, then you could just have them straight up. It doesn't really make sense why you would water them down with a bunch of ice, because then it tastes like crap. If I get an iced latte, it should taste like an iced latte, I shouldn't have to struggle through it by dumping more sugar into it like I'm taking some sort of medical concoction. There are so many things they could do to fill up the cup, add a little bit of milk into it. You guys don't have milk? I asked them that. Oh well it's extra to put more milk. Ridiculous I swear
