Dont hate on them. Theres no beer Ive found that matches the flavour. Closest Ive had was Pacifico Live Life Anchors Up But its still about a mile away in flavor.

They're my favorite inexpensive macro beer, it actually has a good taste while still being light and easy to throw back in large quantities

nothing wrong with Blue Moon, it's nothing fantastic but it's a step above most other macrobrews

For stuff that's easy to find, check out Devil's Backbone Vienna Lager. If you can pop into a craft store, check out stuff like Founder's Breakfast Stout, or if you want something with a really good taste and are willing to spend some coin, check out La Fin du Monde

If all else fails and you're broke, drink some Yuengling lol

I just don't know what I did wrong. I liked it so much while I was there.

it's possible you did nothing wrong. they typically look for someone that's both personable, persuasive or even pushy about upselling and closing the sale. I'm super friendly and knowledgeable but made for a terrible computer salesman because I gave honest recommendations that didn't jive with management's "let them know what they need and sell everything you can" approach

Long time commission sales fella here. Typically the scene is easy to break into. If you've got a car dealership near you bet money they'd hire you lickity split.

this ain't a bad idea, whether you want to do sales, or you could leverage your cashier experience to be a service cashier (which is absolutely nothing like retail cashiering FYI, it's more like ringing people out when they're picking up their car, some minor accounting, filing and admin stuff, etc. I did that and was promoted to the service lane within a year so it's not dead end either)

yeah, pure commission sales jobs suck, unless it's for something highly specialized and niche.

very competitive at times, and your income fluctuates wildly depending on who walks through the door. plus you can be the best salesman and still have a shit month and not hit your quota, which means that might dip into your supervisor's paycheck, and once you fuck with their income they're more likely to treat you with hostility or even just can you outright

been there, done that, never again

Trumpers shook that red states are having their gerrymandered maps thrown out by the courts and are voting more along the lines of their actual demographics

A Conservative Party representative said: "The Conservative Party does not accept foreign donations as they are illegal."

The person said the donors reported by OpenDemocracy "have lived in Britain for many years and are British citizens, which gives them the democratic right to donate to a political party."

i like how this wasnt mentioned at all until the very end in a little footnote

you can be a British citizen and still have close ties to Russian interests and oligarchy

Russia needs to be sanctioned so hard they learn to stop fucking with other people

Yeah, but why are they so out in the open on this one

They could be pushing for the left wing party/accelerationism

conservative parties in the UK and US tend to be the socially conservative and authoritarian ones though, which more aligns with Russian interests

I think they're being open about it because it promotes distrust and instability in Western democracies, which Russia has historically wanted, as well as reinforces Putin's international influence which appeals to his base and his reputation as a strongman

I thought this would be a cool story about TC's origins of getting superpowers

He liberally applied Coppertone sunscreen when going to the beach, and then had his swim trunks pulled down by a radioactive stray dog

His butt is now so powerful that he can smash through walls like Juggernaut when he runs backwards

I used to live there, it's definitely suburban and has a lot of commuters that work in more northern counties like Fairfax, Loudoun, Arlington or even DC. LOTS of government contractors. I'm not surprised she got re elected.

Plus according to my mom they were running lots of anti-trans and homophobic ads against her, so I'm sure that rubbed a lot of voters the wrong way.

You should definitely take a break from social media as well, if you're not already doing that. Judging yourself against what other people decide to say about their lives on Facebook only causes you undue stress and anxiety.

I never got into social media or Facebook, I'm still old fashioned and like to call people or hang out and catch up. I'm just not getting out much anymore

That might be part of that particular problem, the social landscape has changed

6 days a week at my normal job, plus Sundays helping out my mom by drywalling and painting at her house

My mental health has definitely taken a nosedive, I'm finding myself getting really irritable at the smallest things, plus I've been really lonely since I don't get out much and all my friends are pairing up with their newfound SOs and either don't have time to do anything or just remind me that I'm still single and haven't had anything other than mindless hookups for years at this point

I need to take a mental health day, or even better, a vacation. Or find a better job so I don't have to pile on overtime and work side jobs just to keep bills and debt in check

It's okay when the highest executive office in the US name calls people he doesn't like on Twitter, but a citizen flipping him the bird is clearly unacceptable

At least the Brits have a proud public tradition of tar and feathering their elected or appointed officials

I just don't like the idea of using elections to vote against things you hate instead of voting for things you want. It seems backwards.

until the us stops its two-party system bs, it's what you'll have to tolerate

Yeah, without viable third parties or something other than FPTP voting, it's either "I really like this candidate and I'm going to vote for them", or "I'm not exactly on board with this candidate, but they're better than their opponent"

https://www.yahoo.com/news/juli-briskman-flipped-off-trump-motorcade-loudoun-county-supervisor-board-virginia.html

WASHINGTON Juli Briskman, who famously flipped off President Donald Trumps motorcade in a viral 2017 photo, won her race Tuesday night for a seat on the Loudoun County Board of Supervisors in Virginia.

...

Briskman made national news in October 2017 when a White House photographer traveling with the president snapped a picture of her riding her bicycle and giving the middle finger to Trumps motorcade as it passed her. The photo went viral immediately, with late-night talk show hosts cracking jokes about it and people on social media hailing the unidentified woman as a she-ro.
HuffPost was the first to identify Briskman, who said in an exclusive interview that her employer at the time, government contractor Akima LLC, fired her over the photo. Briskman went on to sue Akima LLC.

What is your job?

intern at a cybersecurity place. Right now they are having me migrate their outdated Perl testing framework to Python 2 which is losing official support in a few months lol

Why on earth wouldn't they use 3? Unless the revamp has been a work in progress for a while, or there's some module they're using that only runs on 2

Oil lights are nothing more than timers or simple oil level gauges. Even most oil pressure gauges are simple "you have it or you don't" indicators. None of that will tell you if your oil needs to be changed, is breaking down, is sludging, is contaminated with coolant or other fluids, etc.

Karma is just a daily login, so all it would do is weed out genuinely new users, alts of good users, and the shitty trolls that keep getting banned.

... I'm on board, even though I couldn't make any more joke accounts.

yes

but less than if the trucks were to burn their traditional diesel or CNG and let the methane from the garbage vent to atmosphere like it'd normally do

Man sounds tense over there

It was extremely vicious civil war and, at times, genocide, all rooted in ethnic tensions. Lots of crimes committed by paramilitary units that couldn't be directly tied to the Serbian government even though everyone knows they turned a blind eye or possibly endorsed it.

Everyone still hates the other to this day

Gonna need the deets bruh

They need to port JSRF to a modern platform

It's not even backwards compatible on the 360,which pissed me off

Not done it but it's probably a decent gig as long as you're okay doing physical (and noisy!) work in all types of weather conditions for long hours. Some people aren't cut it for that so consider it honestly.

I don't mind physical jobs as long as they aren't back breaking constant labor like construction or landscaping. My current job in a dealership parts department has me manhandling lots of heavy stuff like engines, transmissions, PTOs, big clunky exhaust midpipes and mufflers, etc. I'm used to shitty unpredictable weather, you kinda have to be in the DC metro area lol

I imagine hearing protection and mastering hand signals would be a must

My friend says she can probably hook me up with a job doing refueling at IAD. It's a busy international airport so I'd be around big jets more than small private vehicles.

It's not something I ever saw myself doing, but I love planes and big machinery in general and it pays significantly more than my current job. She also says that once you're in they tend to look at you for transferring to other positions before they go through the hassle of a background check and training for a new hire - like she's doing maintenance on the underground trams now and she's switched positions 3 times in the past year and a half.

I'm itching to get out of my current job, so I'm gonna apply and see what happens. Just curious if anyone has done anything similar and what your experiences were.

Not going all out tonight, just two cans in to some DB Vienna Lager while I grill up some steaks

I like Valentina, it's cheap and has a really good flavor, plus it's really thick so it stays where you pour it. Not really hot though.

lol Generation Z'ers getting confused with their digital readouts are fucked vs a mechanical gauge.

Do you even know how to change a tire?

When I worked in the service lane at a dealership, I can't count how many people had complaints or concerns about the accuracy of those numbers or why they weren't getting exactly the mileage it promised. Lots of adults and seniors.

Your car is slowly becoming immune to gasoline. Try putting in diesel every now and then to keep it confused.

Fun fact, you can mix diesel fuel in with the engine oil to clean out any sludge that's built up. It's a shit lubricant though so you have to change the oil entirely after that.

That's not a measure of how much fuel you put in the tank, but rather how far your car thinks it'll go based on you average fuel consumption.

In other words, your gas mileage has gone down for one reason or another.

whats going to happen is that your insurance wont cover the damage because its not your fault so youll end up having to sue the guy, youll get money to cover the car and money for pain and suffering.

I think it depends on what kind of insurance she has, since Pennsylvania allows you to opt out of the "no fault" system
