CountDog 11/16/21 10:40:01 AM #40 | LeoRavus posted... The plant manager stopped me when I walked past his office today.Good for you. I hope a little raise happens. Sounds like if your getting 15 right now. That should be bumped up to 18-19. The supervisor part shudders me. I think your fine. But I went over a supervisor once. And was fired for it. --- |

Topic | Starbucks letter to employees just ahead of union vote in Buffalo |
CountDog 11/16/21 12:29:46 AM #58 | At what their making. A union would be a terrible idea. Not to mention a union is just another way for someone to monopolize. Frankly the Federal government should be supporting its everyday citizen more. Sadly, with all the corporate hang time they get with legislation being payed by corporates. They'll never have time for that. Ever. --- |

CountDog 11/15/21 11:45:02 AM #76 | What the hell was wrong with those people. I mean they were essentially just shrugging it off. Until they couldn't no more. What the hell were the parents doing? I mean this has to be a case. Where everyone is just dumb right? --- |

CountDog 11/15/21 9:40:40 AM #10 | Technically a cop isn't supposed to touch your door. Unless they see immediate concern or you let them in. I would have gotten their numbers down and reported them. --- |

Topic | Trying out Battlefield 2042 right now with the game pass trial |
CountDog 11/13/21 2:13:21 PM #3 | The fact that is portal is a thing. Tells the devs aren't confident with their base title. What I don't get. Is why is it so difficult to make a battlefield game? My guess is EA makes it difficult. But I don't know. I was really close to buying it today, yesterday. But after looking at it. I'm just confident that it looks real fun. It's interesting, knowing the difference between hype feeling. And this is going to be fun feeling. --- |

CountDog 11/11/21 8:44:56 PM #68 | I tried to get into Skyrim a few months ago. Honestly its just way too shallow. None of the builds feel great. I really don't understand how I put soo Monday hours into that game previously. I'm just going to assume that it was the tone that was so captivating then. And even now. --- |

Topic | They took co-op out of the San Andreas remaster |
CountDog 11/11/21 2:12:39 PM #24 | Used to play it all the time with a friend. Kinda eliminates some of the novelty for the game. Every other day I'd be at my friend's to play SA with him. Just for the cheats alone. Had a blast with it. Would be cool if they added alone co op. That would make sense. I get it with the times and all. But shows you a little bit about ourselves now today. --- |
Topic | Anyone work as waiters/servers at restaurants? How true is this |
CountDog 11/11/21 1:13:18 PM #5 | It's true, but it's also one of the busiest times of the week as well. Maybe the most. We would deal with something every day in the afternoon evening mostly. Because there were more guests. But Sunday it's pretty much busy all day. The morning possibly being the most. A lot of the servers I worked with were like pretty boy, blonde lady types. And believe me when I say they were just as much brats as the guests. Everyone acted self entitled everywhere. But than you look at the type of bosses I worked for and you'd start to see a picture. --- |
Topic | I wish we could just be honest in job interviews |
CountDog 11/11/21 10:37:00 AM #8 | For Job interviews I try to say in a approachable manner. That I'm ready to do the job well. When can I start. If they bring in overtime. There going to have to pay me triple. Or give me a huge raise. And or I'm in love with the job. Which is rare. --- |

CountDog 11/10/21 9:51:05 PM #14 | SubwooferKing posted... Oh yeah its getting worse for sure here, i can tell. But I think COVID and the hard times has to do a bit with it.That is really bad. Hope your friend wasn't affected by that too much. That is some psycho stuff right there. Really are no words to describe that. Other than I hope everyone is alright. And the crazy has undergone some serious rehabilitation. I know exactly the area your talking about. I think recently they had a pretty bad scenario. An ex co worker got it on camera. I just can't remember what it was. And I absolutely agree with you about COVID not helping at all. --- |
Topic | Damn Rikers island yo. |
CountDog 11/10/21 9:35:23 PM #9 | SubwooferKing posted... Ive lived in Seattle my whole life and never once thought it was a top place for crimeIt's a prison I just read about it. And when I saw mentioning of releasing inmates early on account for space. It made me think of previous experiences I've had. I'm not sure if you watch news or not. But there's usually one person shot daily or every other day. I remember before 2010 I'd hear about it like twice a year. If that. Crime has gone up an insane amount in comparison. I guess you've been lucky. Which is good. I lived in maple leaf most my life. The word wouldnt even be in my vocabulary. Fast forward to today. I've lost count how many times. I've read a news report of someone getting shot and killed on Roosevelt, lake city, Aurora, even Northgate. Honestly I doubt Seattle is even in the top Ten for U.S cities crime rate. But it's a big deal for me. I mean I literally stopped a rape scenario on Roosevelt near Northgate, about five years ago. With the assistance of another person. I thought it was insane. Right next to the damn mall. Or what used to be the mall. --- |

Topic | Damn Rikers island yo. |
CountDog 11/10/21 9:09:25 PM #3 | Cornmuffins posted... Seattle? Huh?Yeah my whole life. When I was a supervisor for a store location. I called and filed reports with the police every other day. It was a headache. Especially with all the robberies. Ballard area connected with Seattle,(west or south west I think). not looking too great these days. There's article you can find where at this point police won't even take them to jail. Because they don't have the room anymore. So they just go back out. I remember we had one fellow who several times over several different occasions threatens violence. And the police would be like, "yep, we chased him away". Come back next morning, and place is robbed. Very common situation. I remember my last day there. Before I guess being promoted. I showed up early to get everything going. And the store had been robbed again. Last day there had to do two different reports that had taken two hours of my day up. --- |
Topic | 15 y/o girl concussed after brutal attack during youth basketball game |
CountDog 11/10/21 9:00:34 PM #10 | mybbqrules posted... Was that a flop? It looked like it could have been a flop or she came down on the other girl's foot and thus lost her balance.She probably tripped on the other girl accidently. You can see her foot land on the other girls foot. Which isn't uncommon. Then decided to pull her down with her. Which isn't uncommon. But then smashes her hard in the face. That part definitely wasn't an accident. --- |
Topic | Damn Rikers island yo. |
CountDog 11/10/21 8:57:31 PM #1 | That place sounds really bad. And there is talk and ideas about replacing it with smaller areas. And letting less people enter. Without clarifying any of that. Didn't know anything about it till today. Yeesh. I knew living in Seattle that there's a lot of shady stuff. But nothing compared to that. At least on a scale level. --- |
Topic | 15 y/o girl concussed after brutal attack during youth basketball game |
CountDog 11/10/21 8:51:57 PM #2 | Damn that big girl was pissed about falling. Missing the shot. And she even pulled the other girl down with her. And then smashes her in the face for no reason. Wonder what her parents are like? --- |
Topic | Todd Howard did an AMA on Reddit |
CountDog 11/10/21 7:25:32 PM #3 | Blah, useless interview. I hate how much he takes advantage of the mod community. Really they should all just get together and make their own game. It disgusting. However there is one important takeaway. He mentions working with your team members. And giving them room to breath. I've been running into his answer a lot. Warren Spector added more to that. With making sure your working with people around you that you wanna give that sort of room to. So there's a lot of adding up in my head. Todd talks like a business man. Hell, he's been a producer for damn well twenty years. What surprises me is how people think of Skyrim as this game with depth. I clocked in over a thousand hours in it. And it's definitely an action game first, RPG game second. You can definitely leave the word simulation out of it. Morrowind was the last real Dice roll RPG game they made. oblivion was a mix. And Skyrim is pretty much all action. --- |

Doubt anything will happen other than the lady being banned. The police might take it seriously. Because what if the soup had been boiling hot? But it wasn't in that case. Theyll have to wait and see. --- |

Topic | Man....I miss Konami >_> |
CountDog 11/10/21 1:38:18 PM #21 | KneeOnBest posted... I didn't even hear about this. Is it good?It's like Contra to an extent. But you can spend dozens and dozens of hours leveling your loot and finding it. From my 10-20 hours of play. It's a top down shooter, with some bullet hell stuff sometimes. The game is very forgiving. And loot is a HUGE focus. I'm willing to bet you can spend a hundred hours on the game because of the loot. It's really only fun if you have someone to co op with. Still got some gear goofy bits in it. --- |

Topic | For those who attended HS in the US, how was Hiroshima covered in history class? |
CountDog 11/10/21 12:53:39 PM #19 | Matelite posted... We had to read the book Hiroshima. It was good. It was also discussed how willing to fight and die for their homeland Japan was and how the bombs likely saved lives.How old were you when you had to read that? I just read it, almost thirty now. And I thought it was great insight to the horror we created. --- |
Topic | For those who attended HS in the US, how was Hiroshima covered in history class? |
CountDog 11/10/21 12:40:35 PM #5 | It wasn't really covered. But we did cover the internment ghetto camps here in Washington state. And we also covered how much of the Indian land we stole and culture we didn't mind destroying if it was I our way of progress. I remember the pictures books they read to us in elementary school of Columbus. Made him look very noble. I really hope that's not how schools teach anymore. Than again, you can't have a group of kids huddled up together anymore. --- |

Topic | Explain to a rational adult what the electoral college is. |
CountDog 11/10/21 12:06:25 AM #5 | I did a ton of research on it one time. Basically you have a bunch of legislative lawyers based on state population. Which controls the size of points per state. Lawyers are really supposed to support where the popular votes,(we the people), go for overall in their state. But they don't have to. And there can be investigations or fines involved. Sometimes nothing will happen, or someone is fired. But now has a million dollars in stock. There is a lot of technical laws and what not. And it's a huge bureaucratic mess, but overall. There Is a lot of interesting parts of U.S law you can read about that can really bum you out. But I'll leave it as is. --- |

CountDog 11/09/21 8:37:32 PM #15 | I live in essentially the poorest part of Seattle. South of your location. Your location is way better. If your worried about weird stuff. That's everywhere. Just go out and enjoy the water side. Pike place area. Those are great areas to explore. If you went a little farther south you could get pizza at Alki. Another beautiful area. --- |
Topic | Would a $10 minimum wage be good? |
CountDog 11/08/21 11:52:24 PM #20 | Even with 16 an hour you could not save even a couple hundred dollars unless you were using a food bank. Then there's consideration for transportation. I guess if you live in a room, you could save a little bit more. Here in Seattle. A room could be found at 650. But it's like Harry Potter closet size. I remember when I lived in a room. I could save about half a months worth. Now that I'm living in a cheap apartment. Most of my check goes away to that, car, and food. --- |
Topic | Belarus accused of intentionally making migrant crisis at Polish/EU border worse |
CountDog 11/08/21 11:42:07 AM #8 | The people of Belarus seem genuine and great. From the examples I've seen. But government is about as openly corrupt as you can get. I mean I think there's a difference between a government that pretends not to be corrupt,(U.S, England). And another that just doesn't care what you think. --- |

CountDog 11/07/21 7:27:23 PM #26 | I would have asked her around hugging time. Probably would have done it. The first time you went out. If she's turned off by it. Then you know that she's not physically attracted to you. I don't think I ever waited till the third date. --- |
