How often did you find yourself running out of change in those places?

Most places I worked did the same thing you describe, you don’t want drawers of cash moving around if you can at all avoid it. But because of that they were often well-stocked with change so yeah, it could be a problem but the drawers were always…

Good thing he has his rear foot sideways to brace. Otherwise I can imagine him firing that gun like:

People that do that at the start of shows are the worst. I use a square reader at conventions so that in those cases I can at least politely ask they use that instead.

Later in the show I find it’s not so bad as I usually have a supply of medium bills (10's and 20's).

I was thinking mostly grocery stores and other big-box chain stores like Target, Best Buy etc.

Restaurants are an interesting one because you also don’t get your change immediately (so it’s not like there’s a line of customers at the register) and also bills are higher. Buying a pack of gum with $100 is different than…

> they typically keep enough cash on hand to cover transactions

Yeah I feel like whether it’s a big deal really depends on the store. Like if you’re at a local flea market or something I’m always understanding to the fact that if this person doesn’t have any change for the rest of the day they’d be fucked. Especially if they don’t have a convenient way to go get more change.

But…

Nah it just makes you a terrible photographer. Did they control for whether or not being a photographer makes you a narcissist though?

Funny thing is you find people who use the word “selfie” to just generally mean picture. “Here let me take a selfie of just my food!”

I think you could generalize that to maybe just be “have a shitty job” or better yet “have at least two different shitty jobs”

I worked retail during the holidays. I made coffee at an absurdly early hour. I also worked on a farm and shoveled horse manure.

If I were to order those in terms of how much I hated them I…

Seriously? I almost wish it was to make a dumb 6.66 joke, at least then it would appear that they had some sort of plan or something haha.

The word you are looking for is “editor”.

Nobody employs them anymore so everybody, President and Gawker included, is just winging it in the proofreading department.

I swear the idea that there used to be editors (and lots of them) must be confusing to younger people the same way the concept of a travel agent is.

Jesus, seeing you write 4.44 made me realize they might have come up with this whole asinine number scheme so that they can do “6.66” as a finale or something.

Maybe I should feel silly/dumb if that was obvious to everyone but me and I just now realized their plan. However if the whole goal with that was to make a…

Something I’m wondering about this. I drive a Fit and according to Google the tank size is 10.6gal.

The gas light comes on when the odometer estimates 30mi (or so) left; and given that I get about 30mpg that means it should have a bout 1 gal left. I’ve driven it down very close to zero but even then I’ve never pumped…

When I went in for my TSA Pre-check I was pleasantly surprised because I have a valid driver’s license from one of the handful of states that offer ‘extended’ licenses that give you access to a neighboring country without the need for a passport. In my case it was Washington State/Canada but other border states have…

To say, “Boo, you greedy voice actors!” is to play into the hands of corporate interests where instead we should be saying “Hey, good for you VA’s, we want the same things too!”

However to me the recurring fault on the part of SAG-AFTRA is how consistently they avoid the conversation with other…

I have a queen bed and my partner and I don’t touch backs. Though at 5'7" and her at 5'3" it’s a bit easier.

Then why do they need to use a competitor’s product instead of their own? Battle.net has an IM feature. Kaplan’s statement basically boils down to admitting that Steam is more convenient than Battle.net...while still refusing to put any Blizzard product on Steam.

If it’s…

Steam message: “Jeff, log on to battle.net so we can talk about work”
“Fuck that, just tell me here”

> “All Blizzard secrets are probably available in Steam chat.”

Which is all the more amusing given that none of Blizzard’s games are even on Steam.

Only time I’ve been in one was during an ill-fated attempt to go out drinking on St. Patrick’s day several years ago.

They were the only place that served alcohol that was not absolutely packed. The reasons for this became obvious the longer we were inside.

Interesting thing is that I think it’s entirely familiarity. I’ve played Dota2 for years so I know exactly what’s happening in this clip.
