Topic | Do you shop at Godwill? |
CountDog 07/31/21 11:18:02 AM #38 | I've worked for GoodWill for the last 4-5 years. Actually on my last week of the two. And will begin doing a trade next week. Sometimes I'll go shopping there to buy clothes. Employees get a 20% discount, I merge it with a 25% coupon they give out to workers here and there. We've thought about unionizing a few times due to the abhorrent practice of the labor/low pay. But a city next over tried that, and were all fired. The goodwill I work for has a practice, where if good money is coming in. Don't change a thing. I thought they might lose profits last year. But they actually gainer 20mil due to the E-commerce department. I've been offered several manager promotions these last few months. Which is nice. But it's just time for me to get out, learn, and hopefully make a lot more money. --- |

CountDog 07/24/21 1:52:47 PM #14 | I'd invest some of it into Doritos or one of the other brands. For them to make me a healthy brand of foods. Didn't specify that they had to be chips, Twinkies, and or whatever. --- |
Topic | Low Pay, No Benefits, Rude Customers: Restaurant Workers Quit At Record Rate |
CountDog 07/22/21 10:48:01 PM #40 | Payzmaykr posted... Its not that the customers are rude. They were rude in the 90s. Theyre hateful, sadistic, and they try to film the workers to put it on the internet. Fuck those type of people. I'm a supervisor. Just wrote a report telling management. To do a better job with hiring people. Use the resources instead of savoring them. Allocate them in way that'll benefit and grow the company more effectively. I know it doesn't work. And ultimately they would have to lose profits to have to move for change. But that's a stretch. Last time we lost money. They just let people go. And replaced some of the big higher ups. And never filled some of the voids. I'm getting into a trade now. And friends are telling me how much I'm going to love it. In comparison. --- |

CountDog 07/22/21 8:30:15 AM #4 | Been playing since it's free on Xbox right now. I think it's pretty good. Sometimes a little convoluted with it's designs. But for an N64 game I definitely think it deserves mention. --- |
Topic | I'm being forced to take time off from work |
CountDog 07/18/21 1:16:24 AM #13 | At my job you can only stock 250 hours. After that they start being dumped. Which is super lame. A co worker of mine has 230 hours. So he about to take a long vacation before he starts losing them hours. --- |
Topic | I really do understand the hate for landlords when you're a renter. But I don't |
CountDog 07/10/21 8:19:43 PM #12 | The issue lies with fascist capitalism. Systematically inflation is a guise for the needy to monopolize. Law only exists to phycologically place people where they think they belong. Population is another factor. The entire human race would have to descipline itself for the greater good. But would leadership exist then? And would they have special previllages. Would communism/fascism dictate the future now. The answer many idealistically want can only come from a huge conscience guidance that simply doesn't exist, and can't. Reality is the good, the bad, and the ugly. Take from it what you will. --- |
Topic | Finally got Lost Odyssey and a 360 |

CountDog 06/29/21 7:14:36 PM #29 | I mean Rockstar New York has been working on something since GTA V. It could be GTA 6. They would just have to create a new version of online that didn't alienate the first one. --- |

I don't denounce any that which you brought to merit for reason. I'll leave it as is and wish you a productive and good day. --- |
Topic | Were you required to read Mein Kampf in your school? |
CountDog 06/28/21 12:04:25 PM #34 | ScazarMeltex posted... I'll bite. Whose lackey was he?As I mentioned before. It's just a feeling, if you read a few history books. You'll find many times that most ideas of the atrocities that were committed. Are ideas that came from Hitler's subordinates, likes of Goring, Himmler. This isn't to say that Hitler wasn't anti-Semitic. But he was also anti American imperialism, Communism. Hated the Czechs with a passion, as well the polish, and Russians. Back to the main point. I feel Hitler was an organizer, profiter. If you spend enough time researching, you find that American/European, and asian. Non Jewish, Jewish, Catholic, and or Christian banks. Corporations, anywhere and every where around the world, donated to hitler Germany. It was a thriving business country building on its war Machine. And still continued to profit within certain sectors well into, and after the second war. You could argue that Hitler made the decisions. But I find that decision are always supported. So who and what were the pillars that supported Hitler? My sense and take has always been his military organizers and corporate supporters. I mean what is Fascism but a mix of corporate and government? This is just my take, a feeling after so much reading. Now take a look at today and tell me what you see. Not a big fan of discussing this stuff. It's like opening a can of worms. I usually prefer to keep it closed, love and let live. But I figure with this topic. And you biting, I'd reel you in a bit before tossing ya back out. Take it all with a grain of salt. Make your own decisions, deliberate with your own research. Edit: you can also find a lot of articles on wealthy supporters of the Nazis at that time using Google. The first world war 2 book I read that I read is 'nightmare years william shirer". I think it's a great start for anyone. I own Eisenhower's world war 2 diary, would like to read that. And I'm very interested in getting ahold of some of Rommels books. --- |
Topic | Were you required to read Mein Kampf in your school? |
CountDog 06/28/21 10:05:06 AM #9 | I read about half of it after reading a long WW2 history book. Smart, boring, and a very cynical guy. But in reality, what's more important is that you have to see where he receives his money. Just like any other leader of a country. After reading Mein Kampf you get the sense he was just another lackey. He was a very good speech orienter, and good at organizing people. --- |

CountDog 06/27/21 9:59:32 PM #70 | 2 copies of legend of Mana PS1. Hyper light drifter PS4 collectable limited gold print. Tacoma PS4 limited run I have a lot of rare pc physicals. Too lazy to name them. --- |

He didn't rear end me, the passenger side of his car got my back left bumper as he swerved into me backing up.My guess is that he'll be in more trouble since you were backing out. It's supposed to be his job watching out for you. Your supposed to watch for pedestrians more than anything. --- |

Topic | Metal Gear Solid 4 is 13 years old today |
CountDog 06/12/21 8:58:38 AM #19 | Ivany2008 posted... still a far better game than 5 was. I really didn't like 5, which is hilarious to me, as I loved the hell out of Ground Zeroes. I found 5 to be "too open world" if that makes any sense. I would have liked to see enclosed areas in that game, and a far better easier to understand storyline. As much as I like five. I thinks it's one of the weakest in the series. Just like you said. I loved ground zeroes. One thing is for sure. I got terribly bored of the ruin/villages in MGSV. The game needed a lot more scenarios to dive through. Never had any beef with four. Always thought thought it was pretty good. --- |

Would absolutely love a good paying desk job. Would love for my 30's to be a LOT better than my 20's. Been finding the drive hard with how much money I have to invest in school, and the years it takes to get a bachelors. I feel like a slave. --- |
Topic | Customer returns our wifi equipment-gets home and calls in upset she has no wifi |
CountDog 06/05/21 1:38:54 PM #27 | I I'm a unique situation when it comes to customer service. I'll get hundreds of people everyday. And I'd say about 2/5 of the customers act in the manner your describing. That sort of air headed attitude doesn't even make me think about it anymore. I'm actually respectful towards people now more than ever because I only just sympathize. And I think I only reached that point because I've just dealt with thousands of people now. And have exhausted the blatant interest of observing how ignorant someone can be about one thing vs another. I have my absent minded moments here and there. And typically my experience has now lead me to usually only expressing gratitude however foolish others or I may seem in a situation. However sometimes a story like yours will have me recess in imaginative interests towards that thought. "Oh I wonder how that went earlier?". Or "I wonder what there gonna try and do now. And I will I have to help later again?". --- |

Topic | Secret of Mana kinda sucks |
CountDog 05/23/21 8:08:09 PM #29 | Gakk86 posted... I did not know that! Thanks for the heads up. Hopefully they make the game a lot harder and the process of making great weapons significantly less obtuse.Near the end of the trailer you can see the updates. Since I own a couple PS1 copies of the game. I won't be picking it up. And I personally enjoy the older sprite look. Adds a charm to it. Adding more pixels just hides all the work the OG team did. However I am very excited that this is finally being released again. And hopefully many people can learn what a unique game it is. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=7uuuQGU4D8E --- |

CountDog 05/23/21 6:50:13 PM #14 | Antifar posted... Hitman counts I don't think hitman counts. Sure it's stealth. But something about it just feels artificial. I've Never had a moment where I felt like I made that happen. Even in splinter cell, when there is only one option to evade being seen. Somehow it feels like I'm doing it. Such a strange thing to observe. I would love to talk to a dev about that. --- |
