Yeah I know there were some rant threads over the years grinds my gears and whatever. I don't think any of them were that happening to dig up. I probably made one of them honestly. Whatever.

I figured if we could rant somewhere we'd be more docile creatures in the rest of the forums.

partyandBSits always been an effort. in 2018 i had a seasonal job and went to collect unemployment and even back then i thought it was just easier to get another job lol

Everytime I’d get laid off for a seasonal job they wanted me to come into the county’s unemployment office 90 minutes away and wait in line with 300 other people to apply for jobs on a half dozen computers running Windows ME instead of just signing off online every week. Complete hassle

CoolChillGuy420How retards in the US scammed unemployment all those years during the pandemic and now 3 years later its almost impossible to apply for in some states. Fuck off.


Not as bad as how corporations scammed PPP loans... basically handed out free money to the wealthy and well-connected who were not in danger of losing their businesses...

The amount of fintech companies that took out PPP loans when they didnt need it is astounding.

if you have insurance and they billed you in full you just call their billing and apply the insurance. also your not using your eyelid to row so dont be a pussy and get out there lol. also also why the fuck are you getting into drunken fights? ive drank a shit ton and way too often since i was 15 and i never got in a fight. keep tabs on if you find yourself getting aggressive while drinking. i know some people who have lost a lot of friends and respect from others that way so the sooner you can avoid that the fuckin better lol

my parents will prolly give them a call with our insurance card when they open on monday. I should really get a copy especially since if i get hurt skiing esp since a ambulance bill could be like 10-15k.

The doctors were worried it would get infected from all the sweat and chances of water splashing on it. Along with the stitches ripping if they get wet and sweaty and i wipe my eye.

Also i think it’s something I should watch out for, but the guy said some stuff that really set me off and probably would have sober so idk. I’m seeing a new counselor Tuesday and i’ve been finding myself just more angry in general so maybe she can help. Fought some kid in school the other day because he called my sister fat for getting food from a vending machine and she’s anorexic so I lost my shit and beat the poor kid. Teacher that caught it didn’t write do anything cause she knows me but that was thursday afternoon so i’ll probably get in trouble monday but oh well. Kid deserves something to put him in his place maybe not as far as i went but something

You're going to learn real quick when you turn 18 that fights solve nothing. The clinker will ruin your day a fuck load more than some words will. Just not worth ruining your life over

Not that a lot of people don't deserve a broken jaw on occasion.

“Private Woflowz what are you doing with live ammunition?!”




in all actuality Wo you gotta chill. Fighting people all the time and being angry isn’t really a healthy way to live. Now you got 2 different dudes- and their friends, who prolly wanna whoop your ass. It ain’t worth it dude, just bring the boil down to a simmer and focus on yourself 🤴

i bought the land rover, my parents just covered insurance till it broke. Now I get to borrow my moms old honda pilot. It’s the family car (for me and then my sister) now that she got a MDX. It’s kinda fun lol. It’s got paddle shifters and a sports mode, that revs higher. I gotta black out the trim and what not to match the rest of the car. But i’ve got a roof rack and bike rack on it rn. I get like 30mpg on the highway too.

how so? I'm not sure how this one is going to play out on my end because it seems like many of the things that are done to rehabilitate plantar fasciitis are not good for a compromised Achilles, and vice versa. It feels like a catch-22 to have both at once

I don’t know what you mean by how so?

I have Achilles tendinitis that flairs up sometimes and Achilles issues that sometimes manifests into plantar fasciitis or vice versa. It’s due to the tightness and pulling in the greater connected heel area.

I also get extensor tendinitis in my big toe on one foot. Feet are so interconnected. It is for sure where my body breaks down

was just wondering how exactly your foot was messed up. Sounds like a very similar situation though. For some reason I hadn't considered that the achilles and plantaris tendon could affect eachother. Does it bother you skiing when it flares up?

No not really. My foot is largely supported with my footbeds and a tight fit. Only thing is the Achilles if I try to butter too hard. Thin liner that means the shell pressures against that bone. Ski boot is actually great for my issues.

This was pretty rampant in Utah as well. My mom started a small business travel company just before the pandemic hit and it was almost impossble for the little guys to get relief. She was finally able too......only 2 years later, and is now currently waiting on the IRS to refund small business for the mishap, only the IRS is just now catching onto how many people scammed the system is putting a stop on payments until 2024.

Ski resorts and ski companies too.....and influencers/outdoor personalities/pro skiers. The Mountain Gazette had a great issue about this topic during the season that got scrubbed off into somewhere.

Work rant:

I watched my main equipment operator and good friend pass away unexpectedly right in front of my eyes on the job in June. My assistant manager’s last day was Friday. My two teammates / employees that helped take the most weight off my shoulders are both gone. And my board of directors seems to think that all is fine and the work will still get done. Meanwhile I cant manage all aspects of the business in a timely fashion and it’s stressing me TF out. All these people see is two people not on payroll anymore, and respond with things like “everyone is replaceable, things will work out in time.”

I’ve been preaching to the board that the businesses that take care of their employees will be the ones to survive in todays business climate. They’ve waited until it’s too late yet again, just like with every important business decision that goes on at this business.

Stick to customer service type jobs you'll find one quickly that will hire you and try and overwork you. Probably not as many remote ones as a year or two ago but they are out there.

Billing/auditing type of stuff isn't too hard to find either just again expect to be overworked to the extreme in exchange for being remote.
