  The last apartment I had, the landlord at some point had put very rough outdoor quartz tiles in the kitchen. They were porous and had crevices everywhere so were impossible to keep clean. Our routine became vacuuming for regular cleaning, mopping any sticky spots when needed, and getting on our hands and knees once a year to scrub the tile with soap and brushes. It was the only way to actually clean the tile and the tile would change colors every time we did it. Did I mention that this tile has been installed over 3 more layers of flooring? Classic landlord special apartment.

  This is what I hate about my company’s hybrid RTO policy. There aren’t enough seats for everyone and it’s not full RTO so we have to schedule our desks ahead of time. Aside from the typical back to office complaints, here are all the reasons I’ve found that hot seats suck:

  • You have to bring all your shit and pack it all up again before you leave including keyboard, mouse, my foot rest because I’m short, etc.

  • You have to readjust the desk, chair, and monitor every time you come in.

  • Because of the previous, the monitor is loaded with grubby fingerprints.

  • Not all desks are the same. Some are in better locations, some have 1 monitor and some have 2, some are longer, some are more adjustable, etc, etc and people fight for the best desks.

  • There aren’t enough meeting rooms and call booths for everyone and people will often just take a room for extended lengths of time or just take a room you signed up for.

  • They make the argument that we need to make connections in person, but my team is in another part of the country and every time I come in, I’m sitting by new people which prevents me from making relationships with people I would otherwise sit nearby on a regular basis thus defeating the purpose.

  I feel you. I weirdly did have vegetables and things growing up, but my mom self admittedly hates cooking. So most of what we ate consisted of casseroles made up of things dumped out of a can and any veggies likely also came from a can and we’re heated up on the stove. She also over cooked all the meat to make sure people wouldn’t get sick. So all the veggies were bland and mushy and all the meat was dry as fuck. I’ll never forget the first time I ate fresh pineapple at my inlaws house and it was one of the best things I ever tasted. I’m pretty good at cooking now and I’ve managed to help my mom improve in all ways as well. She now uses a meat thermometer that I got her for Christmas. I cooked her some fresh broccoli in a pan with salt, pepper, and garlic powder and she loved it and started making hers that way instead of boiling it. Baby steps, but we’re making progress.

  For me, someone who uses a Mac for work but still has to use the office environment, it goes something like this:

  Google the issue

  Google the issue + office for Mac

  Find a forum about the exact issue I’m having

  Loads of people commenting having the same issue

  Expert answers and says “That feature is not available for Macs at this time. How about you post it as a suggestion for the devs at this link here>>>”

  Post is minimum 3 years old and there’s still no solution.

  Gee thanks.

  Scooby Doo - Scooby Snacks

  Shaggy - also Scooby Snacks

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I can't imagine being paid to act like I enjoy working in the office⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I didn’t interpret this as it’s bad to make people come to the office that physically need to be there or that it’s judging them for not taking PTO. I interpreted this as a cringe showboat where they try to show how cool it is to be in the office and everyone should love being in the office. The commentnand response at the bottom about the open floorplan say it all.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨This is a real food I just found⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  As much as it was sad to see a lot of restaurants die during COVID, there were an awful lot of sushi abomination restaurants out there that I think we’re all better off without. I actually had to stop eating sushi for a few years because we would try to order sushi and it would just be disgusting. You’d get either 1 of 2 scenarios - it was some very gimmicky sushi that you’d never eat more than once, or it was gross because the quality just wasn’t up to par during lockdown. And sushi is unfortunately one of those foods that’s very unforgiving and if you have even 1 bad experience, you won’t be going back to that establishment. So I can see why a lot of them closed.

  There’s an excellent episode of the Sopranos where they end up going to Italy. And even though their whole personality is “Italian” they find that they have nothing in common with actual Italians. That show is a masterpiece.

  I don’t know if these things are sent en masse by a bot or by a person, but it’s like they don’t even skim your profile before hitting send. Like I specifically said “Work from home only”, what makes you think I want your “hybrid” opportunity in bumfuck Illinois that barely pays what it should for my experience?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Get good.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  We had a dog once that was super smart and would learn what different words meant very rapidly. I’d say with most dogs I’ve had, you can go most of their life and they’ll maybe learn 2-3 different words for “dinner” and you can use other words if you’re trying not to excite them too much. But this dog I swear near the end of her life we would have to say ridiculous things around her like “Did you put the K9 cereal in the receptacle?” because she had learned just about every other basic way to say “did you feed the dog?”.

  We still have one in Illinois but I’m not sure how it’s still holding on. Used to love going in there.

  I could be wrong, but I think the original idea for the matrix was that they were using human brains for processing power and not energy. But someone in the movie making process decided people wouldn’t understand that and instead went with the battery analogy.
