Also on a lighter note, I don’t believe in Nebraska. It’s a myth. I’ve never met a person from Nebraska and neither has anyone one else. I’ve never seen a Nebraskan license plate. Is it Nebraskan? Nebraskanight? Nebraskanought?
Do you guys have austronoughts or something? Or is it just corn?
The next town over from me is having a dispute over repaint the water tower that currently features someone you’ve never heard of and his (music?) career.
Anyway I suspect Nebraska news is that all the time.
To be clear I’ll take my stereotype card. I’m from Texas. Yes I had horses but not everyone from Texas did… yes I rode it to school for special events but it wasn’t a day to day a thing. We had a car.
What does Nebraska have? Elephants? My god do you guy have like mammoths or something. I bet you have a good hockey team. I don’t watch sports but it sounds like a Nebraska thing “Nebraska mammoths”
I know sports teams are normally named after a city but I can’t think of a single city in Nebraska. Nebraska city? My good is the state capital Nebraska city and it has an amazing zoo and a board walk are that’s kinda dangerous after sundown?
Nebraska isn’t real

I’ve got bad news for you about capitalism in general.
Dollar tree isn’t specifically bad. In fact I recommend working there if you need a lot of experience really quickly. It’s “easy “ in that way. You’ll move up faster than you would at Walmart.
But yeah most stores regardless of brand there is ALOT more going on than you see. Like someone dropping dead in line 10 min before you walked in. If the store manager is running the register at any store something very bad happend s/happening

Actually the worst part of all is people died at stores. Nothing that was our fault but yeah, I saw people die and didn’t even list that as one of the “sad things” it was just a tuesday

I totally get that and thought about it. People reading it might think differently and I wanted to warn them. Not specifically you.
Funny story though: my ex wife lived in the same small town as me and she told me “you’re employees were talking shit about you”
“Well yeah… I’m the boss. We all talk shit about our bosses “
“Do you want to know what they said “
“Nope.‘if it’s important they’ll talk me directly “

In more ways than people realize. I’ve got so many heartbreaking stories.
My record for most drugs found in the bathroom was six baggies of crystal. One of my jobs as GM+ was “he’s been in the bathroom for a really long time… and there’s no noise in there”
“Alright I get the narcan from my car (we weren’t allowed to keep it in the building but sometimes you need narcan)”
Another horrible story is the time I spent all day stomping on baby Jesus. Products have to be destroyed so not peasants can take them out of the trash. Surprisingly a lot of people didn’t want to stomp on Jesus Christmas ornaments. So I went around to all the store to stomp on Jesus for them.

Sorry I thought it was obvious if you think about it.
It was dollar tree. I worked the transition from family dollar-dollar tree- dollar tree plus.
What I can say good about dollar tree is I went from part time cashier on Christmas for extra money to running stores in 6 months. I opened 7 stores, lead the stocking teams, helped out at dozens of stores and was “person you call” when you don’t know who to call. DMs called me. On the other hand i had a mental breakdown (litterly I was hospitalized for close to a month then I moved home with my mother that’s how damaging the work was under that one specific district manager) so dollar tree is a great place to move up but it’s like… Harvey Weinstein…. Yeah he can make you a star but at a cost.
Lol sorry I have ptsd lol

I worked for a dollar branded store they would monitor the companies Reddit for employees that were being saying something bad.
They’d look thru the account for pictures of the store layout or anything identifiable. Like the weather on certain days were specifically helpful yes.

The English translation isn’t exactly optimistic.

I understand your dismay. Believe me I’m not saying the behavior is right. I’m just describing what is.
You nailed it. They will no call no show to appointments to try out wedding cake samples. Giving blood isn’t even fun. They only made the appointment because they didn’t want to look selfish for the blood drive people.
- Comment on A heart-warming story 2 weeks ago:
I wish that wouldn’t happen… does it really seem wild though? People skip all kinds of appointments without calling.

I heard a story from Japan where an American business man was sarcastic and the meeting got quiet. He was like “it’s a joke because-“
“We got it. We just thought it was inappropriate “

- Comment on Is ironing clothes significantly less common now? 2 weeks ago:
If you talking about recently I don’t know but ironing use to be more important before modern fabrics.
It’s a blend of shit that less natural but doesn’t get crazy wrinkled.
I once bought a vintage shirt I liked after one wash it looked like on of those instant towels. I could have ironed it but I just stopped wearing the shirt.

Could you please explain why bathroom scales aren’t accurate? I love to learn and this is new to me.
A scale is a scale right?
- Comment on I've Hit The Perfect Weight 3 weeks ago:
I mean… we have hands because we evolved for most species they are feet. We kinda do have 4 feet
- Comment on I've Hit The Perfect Weight 3 weeks ago:
That explains a lot lol. For the record I think America should switch to metric but until we do I thinks in freedom units.
- Comment on I've Hit The Perfect Weight 3 weeks ago:
I didn’t realize we were using metric. I was thinking 120 Big Macs. My mistake.
- Comment on I've Hit The Perfect Weight 3 weeks ago:
How tall are you? If I was down to 120 I would be near death.
- Comment on With all this talk about Ai not being profitable why aren't we using it in video games? I dont mean replacing developers I mean in NPCs in the game. I make them more realistic. 3 weeks ago:
God I hope not because my ideas are terrible. Like it’s parade enshitifaction mostly.
I’ve got one now I’ll share with y’all before ChatGPT.
So imagine this hypothetical.
I’ve spent 100 mil dollars to develop a breathing disk that helps people who have low oxegen levels or elderly people who have trouble breathing. It a charity endeavor. Saves lots of lives and is “perfectly say”
Next anytime someone goes in for any type of throat problem. He’ll any surfer “might as well give a power lung. It’s statistically safer to do it now while we’re in here than wait until it eventually fails”
A few years later it’s a “safe devicve” and it comes in a lot of colors.
The commercials blar “are you breathing properly? Have you experienced True Air tm. , if not, what have you been breathing.
With new monitors, breathing air can be set to “date mode” for the best breathing to get that number, from your crush. And… what comes after. New version has a sports mode for high heart rate activity”
A few years later it’s a subscription service. The best part is the people getting fucked can’t complain, the can’t afford to yell. They are skipping breaths to save money.
But if you don’t pay you don’t get to breathe.
That’s the kind of shit I talk about with ChatGPT.

Thank you that explains alot.
Unfortunately now all I can’t think of is “great sir knight the queen has been captured, and much like hitler she has done nothing wrong!”
Player “I will save the queen and… wait hang on what was that about hitler?”
Npc: I’m just saying if you look at the geo-political climate of the 1930s-
Player: I’m just going to find the dragon thank you.
