Much better than the $1 a bar stuff.

I asked my girlfriend to get some bar soap from the grocery store instead of the usual liquid soap. She got this stuff that costs like $15 a bar from etsy. Its so thick and sudsy and feels good.

But i showed her cheaper stuff exists for the future at Walmart.

The essay portion was bullshit because it was largely subjective and therefore had no place on an aptitude test.

Do you mean subjective so that the scoring would be different between two reviewers by more than 0.5 points, or subjective in that the grading scale is subjective even though reviewers scores would be consistent? @Zeus

Take-out. Do you mean delivery or actual going to pick something up? If it's the later I change my mind. It's "no". I never do. I only tip on dine-in and delivery. This question is very poorly worded as "Take-out" and "Cary-out" are not the same thing.

Not at all surprising coming from TC who has a long history if crappy questions like this.

A take-out or takeout (U.S., Canada, & the Philippines); carry-out or to-go (Scotland and some dialects in the U.S. & Canada)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Take-out

Judg, why you gotta be so mean these days? Youre the only one confusing take out and delivery.

Anyways, @Judgmenl whats the difference between your usage of take-out and carry-out?

I always believed to-go (less fancy of a phrase) = take-out (a bit classier) = carry-out (even a bit classier) =/= delivery (where they deliver to your home)

I upgraded my Apple Watch 3 to an Apple Watch 6 yesterday. Honestly I just bought the Apple Watch 3 last year but the low storage capacity on it is bugging me. I had an Apple Watch 2 for a three years before that. Free upgrade from 2->3, itll end up being a $150ish upgrade from 3 -> 6 once I sell my 3. So now Im on the newest model, idk i expect to upgrade in about four or five years

I also upgraded my iPhone 7 to an iPhone 11 Pro Max today, lasted me 4.5 years and couldve gone longer if I didnt want a bigger screen. Upgrade will cost me about $500 after selling my 7. So now Im on last-gen, so should be good for five or so years, maybe longer

Apple TV is newest model, so no need to upgrade. I had the last-gen model for like six years. Idk what they could even add to make me want to upgrade.

MacBook Pro from 2012 is still going strong. I kinda want to upgrade to the newest air but I like the 15 screen for work so probably will be using this until I can find a 15 pro with the M1 for about 1k.

AirPods I use the originals, the pros hurt my ears and I dont do wireless charging really.

I might try to sell both my 12.9 iPad Pro and 9.7 pro and get an 11 pro. I really like both the 9.7 and 12.9 sizes but just feel kinda silly using both. The smaller one I use with the touchscreen and larger one I use more like an ultra-portable laptop. Idk, my larger pro is last-gen so theres no need to upgrade it but I feel silly having two pro iPads that are close in size.

I haven't use them yet, but you're a total sucker for calling them shitty headphones. The general consensus is they're great, but about on par with things you can get for a couple hundred cheaper, but also have some extra features those headphones don't have. I can't think of a single source that said they weren't quality headphones.

Second this. Also, you start to resent that you're essentially wasting your life sitting in a place symbolically to earn money when you're not really working and you could be anywhere else. It starts to eat at you.

Also the days are loooong.

Yeah, his is making he a bit cautious taking the job, even though its similar pay as I make now for one less day of work. I question the worth of some of the work I do on occasion, but it wasnt as bad as when I just browsed Reddit all day a few years ago.

Thats why you gotta do something to make the day go by faster. For me, Im lucky since Im good friends with one of my co-workers. Were always joking about something. Then, we watch movies, tv shows, YouTube, etc. on my fire. And we both play our switch and stuff. So they say actually flies by pretty quick.

Im not sure if it would be that lax. I doubt I can bring in a switch, I have to at least give the illusion Im working or doing something noble I think.

Had it, was bored off my ass.

Honestly I would rather a job where I was so busy that I feel like there is not enough time in the day to get everything done then a job where I was sitting around doing nothing. Problem is that when you spend so much time doing nothing, it is hard to get motivated to do something when you actually do have things to do.

I totally understand this. When Im motivated and getting things done its in all parts of my life. Hard to switch on and off for work.

Id really like the extra day off a week this job offers. I guess Im just scared to give up my current position and a bit scared to work alone. I probably shouldnt be. Worried Ill dislike the location since I really like my current place. Worried itll be hard to make new friends.
