He's saying some sellers say they won't give you feedback until they get it from you.

This honestly doesn't bother me. When I sell I don't give feedback until I either hear from the buyer that they are happy with the item or they leave feedback. I have had too many problem buyers on eBay.

The last time I tried selling I actually had a guy say he wanted a refund because USPS Priority took too long(I shipped next day), then after the refund was given he refused to send the item back to me unless I was going to PayPal him $10 to ship it back. Reported it to eBay and nothing ever came of it. It's very one sided for buyers.

Years ago, I was waiting for the second portion of my tattoo to be finished and I had been in contact with my artist because he wanted to bring me to a show, and finish while there. He was really excited that I agreed to do this. A week before the show I had a very vivid dream where he was apologizing to me, and letting me know that he couldn't finish the tattoo for me. I didn't think anything of it and went about my day. Later that day I found out he had been shot and killed.

In our first apartment I had the same recurring nightmare for weeks, atleast 3 times a week. I would feel my consciousness being forced from my body, and slowly floating down our hallway to the bathroom. Once I turned the corner, in the bathroom there was a man sitting against the wall that had slit his wrists and was bleeding out. I would just keep floating closer and closer until my eyes were even with his, then would quickly pop back to myself and wake up.

I tried Adderall earlier this year, in two stints. Initially it helped me with motivation issues(the best I can explain the initial feeling was when Harry Potter took the luck potion), but slowly it made my behavior get worse(over a couple weeks). It was harder to get motivated, I was incredibly irritated all the time at the smallest thing. Eventually I stopped because I had what I felt were thoughts leading to suicidal thoughts.

I talked to my doctor about it and he said my body quickly became addicted and was craving more. That this was what was causing all of this. It was so bad that I didn't feel right taking any other medication.

Hardees

Out of those. Burger King was the worst. I had just started and on the first day they put me on the Whopper station, on $1 Whopper day. The smell of the charbroiler was terrible IMO

Mr.Chicken was disgusting. The guy that did the prep work would dip his fingers in the food and lick them clean.

Arby's had the worst management

Taco Bell and Rallys were actually fun to work at, but I was under 18 for my first stint with each.

I am on the back end of it now. One person came into my office with it, and we all got it. Shut down our department for the week pretty much.

I had these symptoms
Bad sore throat
Chest congestion (breathing issues with this)
Joint and body pain - this was one of the worst parts as it was pretty bad
Nausea
Fever
Bad cough
Breathing issues (asthmatic, so any sort of virus does this to me)

My wife ended up getting it to, even though we were safe. It's incredibly easy to pass on. We also tested several times and only came back positive when we were really deep into the symptoms.

Was very sick with similar symptoms around January of this year. I ended up with pneumonia and was out of it for a few weeks.
