This is the customer service industry - you take your war stories back to your coworkers and hopefully get your manager to back you up. Did you notice that a lot of these stories were “when I was going through school....”

Thanks for sharing your story. And to all those who have not had a vaginal childbirth, this is just one story (so I wouldn’t go racing to get your tubes tied based solely on this), there are probably just as many different “birth stories” as there are babies. I didn’t have these issues post-partum (2 kids both vaginal…

I don’t have a problem with this video. How else are those majoring in “club promoter” going to get their experience?

This was before stolen valor was an offense but it greatly upset an actual vet who worked at the same company which is why he did some background checking on the guy and HR warned him to stop digging when he reported his findings about the guy. To my knowledge there was no money involved and it was my friend’s…

HR policies can make things interesting. I knew a “fake valor” along with “fake cancer” situation at a workplace and all the employees were warned against challenging the person doing the faking. I can only presume that they were worried about a work environment lawsuit being brought against them. In any event, I am…

Hi there - my ancestors came from the hair belt. Try an epilator (like the emjoi), if you have already been waxing, it is about the same pain level. Also, use witchhazel after to open the pores and prevent ingrown hairs or buy the pricey tendskin formula online. I have eczema issues and have not been able to use a…

I am in tech and everywhere I have ever worked temperatures are kept low’ish to help our workhorses, the computers. In several offices at different workplaces, both men and women would put cardboard over the vents in their offices to prevent being iced out. We also had “approved” space heaters you could get from IT. I…

Eh, my kid was five when he began understanding the concept of money and immediately searching for dropped coins everywhere. However, his only thoughts were what legos he can buy with it, so the idea of saving for a surgery seems more abstract.

I grabbed this photo off of Joshua Tree Nat’l Park’s website to give you an idea of what a dirt road in that region looks like. I do not believe they were turning around on a paved state highway road. If you take the wrong dirt track (and this is a very, very easy thing to do) you can find yourself on a slowly…

There are some very remote back roads with no cell coverage throughout the desert areas of Southern California. I am guessing that they were off a main road and on a dirt track (since the car was stuck on a rock). If the family was unsure of the exact route they were taking, it could make for a large search area.

I don’t mean that they were in on a pre-game plot, but I do mean that they were aware of their spouse’s proclivities and willingly turned a blind eye and a deaf ear. One of Cosby’s victims stated that she felt comfortable coming to the Cosby house because Camille was there. And purely speculating, I would think some…

I thought the same about sandusky’s wife, helping create an appearance of safety when really planning to abandon victim and perpetrator.

I have no condition and I truly prefer any meat dish I eat to be well-done. I generally do not order steak out, but I have gone on group dinners to Ruth Chris or other steakhouse establishments and order the small filet well-done. It tastes great to me and I have tried it rarer and don’t like it. Everyone has…

Not at all of the same caliber, but I waited at Denny’s and had a customer ask for the prime rib special “rare”. I brought it out and twice he sent it back due to it being overcooked(and yes, this was at Denny’s, the chain restaurant). The third time, the chef put the frozen wrapped cut on a plate and was trying to…

Steve Jobs also made a similar admission. He regretted wasting time with alternative therapies.

I will at least give Dolezal credit for not stealing money with her insanity and also for not giving cancer patients false hope.

I agree that forcing medications on an adult is not acceptable. However, if some quack told you to have your child drink bleach to cure them of autism (this is a real movement and it can kill a child so don’t try it), is that not child abuse? The state is merely protecting the rights of all of the other children in…

Seriously, after knowing how much they like PIs and how they are actively fighting SB277, I think this harassment can be traced back to scientology. Just getting ready to start reading “The Unbreakable Miss Lovely” about the insane levels of harassment they directed at Paulette Cooper.

Answer: No, there has not.

I think it is ok to orange-face her though.
