there is Indeed a problem

A tip for anyone in the situation: when looking for a job on any website, if it has a ridiculous pay range, like 30k-140k, stay away. Usually some pyramid scheme, or scammy commission only sales job that you'll never make anything from.

I'm sure some of these work out for some people, it has to. But realistically it doesn't ever work out.

Paris is battling an infestation of bloodsucking bedbugs on trains and in movie theaters as the city gets ready to host the 2024 Olympics

I had probably pretty bad bed bugs, felt pretty easy. But I did probably go overboard to ensure they were gone. Bed bugs spray killer directly, bombed twice. Washed known contaminated clothes very strongly. Ran all other clothes through just drier. full wall wipe, everything was washed and kept separated from room. Bombed again. Left outward facing tape along walls to see if they come back. Never had them again

I worked at AutoZone 7 years ago, we had a scanner thing that'd just read the check numbers on the bottom and run it like a debit card without a pin.

I'd tell people to not fill out the check, cause it doesn't matter at all, it didn't read it, and I give the check right back anyway, it could even be used again if the dorks would stop filling them out for no reason.

Even after all my telling them before and while they filled them out, they'd be in such disbelief when I returned their check after 3 seconds. Some would even be angry for them wasting time filling it out when it didn't even matter. Like guy I told you multiple times, how could anyone get upset at me for that.

ERCOT asks Texans to conserve energy for third straight day

Probably all smart thermostats, but for sure at least the Google thermo will offer to enroll your thermo in a rewards kinda program. Will get money (100$/yr for me) for Google to lower your HVAC use during major loads. Also you get a warning before it happens.

A lot of power companies also offer pretty much the same thing, but they can control it. Usually you get a few over rides per year before some penalties.

It's a good idea and should probably be the norm, should probably just fix the grid instead of the bandaid too

Kids keep going to college with the promise of making 400k/year, but normies don't get that. College is good and all but employers generally don't care which college you went to, or your major (if not directly related), what matters is who you became friends with in college, and who their parents/uncles are.

Better off studying something specific, vocational schools, trade schools. Learn something specific, either no or small loan

When my son (2) was born there was decent pressure to circumcise, we were asked leading up to birth, before birth at hospital many times, and many times after.

I'm sure there's plenty of single mothers who don't know any better and just eventually agree. I've been told hospitals sell the cut off for woman's make up stuff
