Anyone else’s roommates drive you absolutely insane?

Stupid ass questions every single day like this:

Oh, you’re up early, where you going?
Work, like everyone else does
Why you going to the trails, it’s hot outside?
Yes I know it’s hot outside, but I like being outdoors & don’t care. I wear a tank top & a hat.
Why don’t you connect to the wifi?
Because the 5G UC on my phone is faster, & why do you care.
Why do you keep fixing your old truck instead of buying a new one?
Well because it’s paid off, & I’d rather spend $200 every few months fixing it than paying out the ass for payments.
Why don’t you cook at home?
Well I work two jobs, & don’t want to sit around the house on my only day off.

So are 813 numbers grandfathered in now?

I still remember the 727 & 813 split pissed everyone off, because calling someone on the other side of the bridge was now a long distance call. They didn’t grandfather people on the Pinellas side that already had a 813 number. When I was a kid everyone I knew had 352 & 813 numbers.

Anyone just use TextNow for reward apps, so you don’t have to give out your real cell phone number?

Whenever a restaurant or store wants me to use their “Rewards Program” I give them the TextNow phone number, & I give them the address of the Post Office as my mailing address. So when they sell my info(Which they all do), I won’t get spam text messages & junk mail at the house.

The $25 a month AT&T prepaid plan, the hotspot actually works on it.

Supposed to be capped at 3mbps, but that seems to only be the case on the phone itself. Hotspot is full speed. We put this on an old crappy phone we had laying around to use as home wifi as Spectrum got too pricey. If they cut it off we’ll try Visible next. My actual phone is on Metro, & I’m not giving that up, as I get 5G UC everywhere I go.

Manual labor jobs are better than people facing jobs?

I would literally rather do lawn care, tree work, or handyman work, than to run a customer service counter or do registers. Dealing with the public drains me more than working outside ever did. All the forced interactions & fake smiling. I found this warehouse job building wooden shipping containers, & I can do that 8 hours a day, & it doesn’t wear me down like a cashier shift does. And I don’t dread the whole drive there.

The 2nd floor of the old Regal has been abandoned for a few years now. NCG only uses the 10 auditoriums on the 1st floor.

How come jobs that are easier where you don’t have to deal with the public pay $20-$25 a hour, but jobs like Publix where you have to deal with a ton of customers only pay $15-$18

Easy jobs like lawn service, warehouse work, assembly jobs, landscaping, or pressure washing pay $10-$15 more a hour & are much easier & you get to work by yourself or with a small 3-4 person crew all day.

I wonder if the upstairs at NCG Cinemas still looks like this? They sealed the 2nd floor off.

Anyone wish rent here was affordable for a single person?

I spend $20-$40 a day on restaurants every day, & walk trails just to avoid being home since I don’t like living with people. Or I’ll sit in a parking lot somewhere that has wifi & watch movies on my tablet. Work only burns up 8 hours of the day.

Renewed my tag online 4 weeks ago & still haven’t received the new sticker in the mail?

Can I just print out the confirmation email & keep that as proof I paid. I really don’t want to sit at the DMV for 2 hours for something they forgot to mail out.

Ridiculous that they require people to order a whole new card just to get this feature. Especially if you already paid $5 for the old card.

This back molar look savable? No pain or anything but the cusps on that end broke off. Have DenTek putty to fill in the gap for now. Going to the dentist Tuesday. One that does root canals & crowns in house in case it needs that or both.

How to people live off the wage Publix pays these days?

When I do side jobs I can make $200-$300 per day. The managers were surprised when I changed my availability to 6-close every day. That way the mornings & afternoons are open to actually make money. Before covid Publix paid a living wage, not anymore.

Doesn’t it suck when you post stuff that actually brings joy to your life & not one person on Facebook can even put a thumbs up on it.

Only time people respond to my posts is when I post something negative. But when I post something that actually brings me happiness, no one is happy for me. Sucks, makes me not want to help people with anything anymore. They treat me like I don’t exist, but will acknowledge everyone else.

What happened to Waffle House? None are open 24 hours anymore except for Waters & Wilsky.

Either they’re all short staffed or the company is in trouble. Because pre-covid you could sit inside every location 24 hours a day.

How do people with phones without NFC use the massage chairs & such? My iphone has NFC, but those $100 Motorolas at Walmart sure don't. Our gym went to the tap system a couple weeks ago.

Will yall be keep your checking accounts after they switch to Capital One, or ditch them for American Express or a local credit union?

I’ll probably keep it unless they start charging fees. Hopefully the account numbers stay the same though, as I got this account linked to my other two credit unions.

Occasionally I’ll start feeling faint when walking fast on the treadmill. End up having to slow down to 3mph & put the incline on 0 until the feeling goes away? What is the issue here?

It’s a strange feeling. Bottom of feet start feeling spongy & vision gets slightly brighter. Only happens if I try to walk at 4mph for a while. But if I back down to 3mph until the feeling goes away, then I can bump it back to 4mph & be fine for the rest of the hour. Anyone else ever experience this? Maybe circulation issues?
