Hello all. So recently I got promoted to my first leadership position as a lead supervisor at a cold storage warehouse. I've been with the company for four years as a forklift operator until around year three I decided I want to try taking a crack at being a lead. I got promoted a few months ago in a different department of the warehouse that just opened up. I didn't really realize what I was in for until the first two weeks I got there. The amount of workload they have does not match the employees or space or really just time in a 24 hour day. The higher ups for a month or so since I started genuinely had no idea how bad it was. Only recently did they start to try and hire more people and figure out how to balance the workload, which is still not resolved because they hired new people and put them in different positions or departments and the workload and issues with the system are still crippling. For the past two months, I have been working 14-16 hours every single day. I come in at noon and leave anywhere between 1am if I'm lucky and 4am more typically. It pays pretty well (maybe not as much as you would expect), but I'm just struggling so much. I've never been in any sort of leadership position and I'm a pretty shy and closed mouth person (both of these the higher ups were aware of), and I'm just so busy trying to get the work for the day done that I'm not learning anything new and a lot of things I want to learn I just don't have the time for. The superintendent has even said to me on multiple occasions that "we know we fucked you over a bit", but insists that it'll get better. My bigger issue, which I've struggled with my entire life, is that I just don't know what the hell I want to do as a career. From this, I surely know that management/leadership is not something I want to pursue. The only thing I'm really good at is music, and I'm well aware how much of an option that is not for a career. My current plan is to get out of debt, lower my expenses, and do some courses to get a job as a water treatment operator which is what my uncle and brother do. I would make half the amount of money I do now temporarily. They say it can pay pretty well long term and it's working for the government so I'll get a pension and great benefits. I worry though that it will end up being the same situation where if I move up, I'm just gonna end up being a glorified babysitter for disgruntled employees. I don't know, I just feel like I want a career where I have one thing I'm really good at that I don't mind doing every day that I can go and do by myself and not have to worry about supervising employees or even owning a business. I do my 8 hours, get paid well, and live my life. I don't mind overtime, but this amount of overtime I'm doing is practically killing me. I can barely think and I can barely do my job. I'm completely burnt out and I just started. If anyone has any advice I'd love to hear it. Thank you for reading my frustrated ramblings.

Hello all, so I mainly wear Ethika underwear because I prefer underwear where the legs come down to just right above the knees and I like the fabric. But I've been reading that polyester underwear really isn't good for you and the designs on their underwear are so immature and gaudy. I tried AsWeMove and Krakatoa and I liked the fabric but the legs on them are far too short and ride up on me and annoys me a lot. I want to try Real Men's 9 inch nylon underwear but I'm afraid it'll be the same issue. Does anyone have any recommendations for underwear where the legs come down to right at or above the knees and are made of similar fabric, preferably with the pouch but if not it's still fine. Thank you all.

So I'm currently using Amex for my HYSA, but I notice it takes 2-3 days sometimes even during the week when I withdraw from it to my checking account. Does anyone know any HYSA's that are more liquid and offer same/next day withdrawals even on weekends? Thank you.

So I've been suffering from canker sores my whole life and I've tried a billion methods and for the past year or so I've just been using all of the methods at once and it doesn't really seem to do much so I've found a much simpler way to treat them: L-Lysine and salt water rinses. The most important thing is to start immediately for it to really work. My most common reason for getting canker sores is biting my lip, and I have really sharp teeth so it happens quite often. As soon as I bite my lip, I start taking one L-Lysine pill a night. If/once the canker sore comes in, I gargle salt water as many times a day as I can, usually at least twice and up to 7 or so times a day. This combination alone has worked better than the 4 or 5 methods I've been using concurrently. Moral of the story: try not to overcomplicate your treatment. What works for me may or may not work for you.

Hello all, so most of my life I have been obsessed with Test Drive Unlimited. I'm not particularly good at the game, but I just love the vibe of the scenery and driving around on an island (O'ahu, Hawaii) and buying the mansions and penthouses and nice cars and all that. I really consider it more of a "lifestyle"/millionaire LARP game than a racing game if that makes sense. I was wondering if anybody knows any other racing games that take place on an island that are similar to TDU. Appreciate it. 10

Hello all, so I've been using and enjoying the WorthTracker app and I've been wondering if I should include my two paid off cars worth about 14K together as a part of my net worth? I know cars are a depreciating asset and I don't have any plans to sell my cars any time soon, but I'm just curious if it's something that counts toward my net worth. And also what is the best way to determine how much my cars are worth? Thank you all.

So pardon me as I'm not super well versed on the history here, but as we all know in "Real Muthaphuckkin G's" Eazy said "At Death Row I hear youre getting treated like bootcamp: gotta follow your sergeant's directions, or get your ass popped with the smith & wesson". That was in 1993, and Death Row was founded in 1992, and Dre would leave Death Row in 1996. How did E know how bad it was at Death Row and with Suge so soon into Death Row starting? Or was he just talking shit and it ended up actually happening?

Hello all, so I've been dealing with roach infestations on and off for a few years now and I'm finally trying the Alpine WSG method as the foggers have never worked and pest control only seems to work for a brief amount of time. When I was reading the stickied post in this sub, I didn't see it mentioned what to do after spraying. Do I wipe down every part I sprayed or do I just leave it and it'll be fine? If I do wipe it down, what should I wipe it with? Thank you and wish me good luck!

Hello all, so I posted about it on this subreddit last week but long story short I'm about 25K in debt and heavily tightening my spending and expenses to pay it all off. I've been heavily considering changing my employee contributions to my 401(k) from 6% to 3% until I've paid off all my debts, giving me an extra $60-$70 on my paychecks. Is this a bad idea? I'm 25 years old and have around 18K in my 401(k) so far, so I feel like it won't be that bad to cut my contributions in half for the next year or two. I also have a loan on my 401(k) that I'm paying $50 from my paychecks on if that matters. Any advice is appreciated, thank you!

I’ve got a signed anime variant of d4vd’s Withered vinyl (near mint), and I’m kinda stuck on what to do with it.

I bought it because I actually liked the album at the time, but with everything going on around him lately, I’m not sure if it’s normal to just keep it as part of a collection or if most people would sell in this situation.

For context, I’m not new to separating art from artist a good portion of my collection is Kanye West vinyl but this situation feels a little different, and I’m not sure where to draw the line.

So I guess my question is: if you were in my position, would you keep it as part of your collection or sell it while there’s still demand? And if selling makes more sense, does that $110–$250 range I’m seeing for near mint actually reflect what people are paying, or is it inflated?

Just looking for honest opinions from people with experience
