There’s a book that Southwestern Bell Wireless gave every employee as they became Cingular Wireless called ‘Who Moved My Cheese,” that essentially said what this video did. Companies don’t owe you squat, they use you and you use them. The only constant in the universe and in business is change. We are just mice, looking to feed ourselves, and when change happens, adapt and find more cheese.

@anniesue4456 — When I resigned, I put “Found better cheese” on my resignation letter.

@neiceystauffer9085 — LOL! I’m not saying it was a bad book, and my take was admittedly skewed. 🤣 The benefit of the book was to expect change, and adapt. We do tend to get stuck, do tend to be a little lazy (looking for other options), and I do appreciate some of the insights the book had. But in essence… it says we are all expendable, cog’s in the machine, just looking to survive. That book is what inspired me to look for another job, LOL!

Why can’t we treat bike thieves like we used to treat Horse Thieves? It would decrease thefts. 😎👍🏼

Apple blocked my Apple ID because over the past 19 years, I reached 100 refunds. My almost $24k in purchased music, movies, tv shows, etc., all gone. If it wasn’t backed up, I must purchase them again. No debate, no logic, no other reason. I’ve never even thought of taking advantage of Apple, until now.

I’d connect the bike to a 220v line, steal the bike get electrocuted. Problem solved.

I own an HP, 99% of my printing specifically is B&W ONLY. However whenever I have to replace the black cartridge it insists I replace the color ones. Even though they are not empty, even though it says it only uses black ink if you specify and check the print in black ink only. Might not seem like a serious issue, but the ink is now about $80 per set, 1 of each color, and another $80 for 2 black cartridges. Color me miffed!

Love ya bud, really do. But it may be time for a little Valium in your morning coffee. 😎

Sorry, I disagree completely. Assuming others are honest isn’t your fault, it’s a good thing. Honest people assume others are like themselves, dishonest people assume most are dishonest too. THIS IS NOT ON YOU! Think of it as an educational learning moment only, nothing more. THEY are the MF’ing criminals. Blaming yourself for being too trusting is misplaced blame that belongs 100% on the thief. (Ever think of putting an Apple Tag into your bag? 😁 (Ducking))

The reasons lockdowns failed is because no one obeyed. People don’t care.

I have an old MacBook Air i7, 128gb sod, 4gb ram that has been determined as unfixable. How can I send it to you?

Nice explanation, but good gawd it was so verbose.

I needed some rechargeable batteries and found several on Amazon. I looked on the internet for reviews and tests, Amazons Chinese rechargeable lithium-ion were the worst. I thought no big deal, I kept them thinking how bad could they be? They lasted about 3 months, not the advertised 10 years of use. I found others, manufactured in Japan and Korea online and bought them, they have lasted years. I know I’m naive but that was an eye opener. And the kicker was Amazon wouldn’t take them back, the seller said call Amazon, Amazon said call the manufacturer… money gone.

If what you said was true, the politician sounds like an asshole and is NOT doing what’s best for his constituents. This makes him replaceable, and you completely justified. No apology necessary, good job.

I can actually identify! FEED ME DAMMIT! 🤣

I got a jacket at a Lord & Taylor clearance store about 30 years ago, and I still love it. Been many times for business and a few times for personal trips. And I must admit, every time, every neighborhood, always different. While nothing warranted the cost of the trip, each time was either enjoyable or interesting! The shows are amazing, the restaurants “can” be good, and you need to be wary of cab drivers! LOL! Ask a cabbie where to eat and you’ll get a scary mix of truly excellent Mom & Pops restaurants, hell holes with what passes as food, or tourist traps that will be an exercise in patience.

Non-Related Question: Did you know that if you reach 100 refunds over the life of your Apple ID life, 15 years for me, Apple blocks your account from further refunds? I found a few songs that I had purchased from ITunes were missing, it wouldn’t let me download the missing songs so I clicked buy. In the past it would realize you owned them and download them, now as your account is locked it charges you, and Apple will not give you a refund for songs you already paid for, PERIOD. There is no debate, your account is locked and Apple gets to keep your money. There is no assertions that I have done anything wrong, they just block you and keep your money, because I’ve reached over 100 refunds over 15 years.

Nice concept, but think of the unintended effect. Add tax, landlords raise rent, making high rent even higher and more unaffordable, homelessness increases.

Interesting that Samsung earbuds are also affected by the “Samsung mentality.” I have rental properties and flip homes, so I buy a lot of appliances. When there are issues with an appliance, I have to find the information for that house and try and arrange warranty service. Samsung FIGHTS EVERY warranty issue tooth and nail, the most run around s, looking for any possible reason to deny a warranty claim. It reached a point where the problems were consistent, it didn’t matter if it was an electronic issue (TV’s), or an appliance issue, they are hell to get them to accept responsibility. I haven’t bought ANYTHING SAMSUNG for about 5 years. It is my sincere wish they go out of business ASAP.

I do day trading, have rental properties, and flip homes. I’ve bought a boatload of Samsung TV’s and appliances. Problems happen, and the issues with EVERY FREAKING SAMSUNG PRODUCT is they fight all warranty issues tooth and nail. A $300 TV that dies 6 months into service, that not a big deal. However when a $3,500 refrigerator, a $2,700 stove, or whatever fails a few months into service you start noticing a trend. The constant “We need your ‘original’ receipt,” which was sent to them, or “we show that (appliance) was sold to Home Depot, Lowe’s, Best Buy (or whatever), not you. The warranty is to the original purchaser only.” Samsung products HAVE NO WARRANTY BECAUSE THE CORPORATION CHEATS ITS CUSTOMERS out of any possible warranty repair they can.

Actually, that looks like a company matching donations payment. Meaning the employee lists your charity, the HR group verifies it’s actually a charity, confirms their donation, and cuts your 501c a check. Because it’s multiple, I’m guessing they use a service (common) instead of doing it themselves. This means the companies themselves may not realize they are donating to you, LOL!

Apple has some of the best lawyers in the world, their “agreements” that we “sign” every time we agree to a software update implying we read and agree to the contract which essentially grants them EVERY possible “right and authority” conceivable, not joking read the details and your mind will be blown 🤯. Whatever you sign WILL be enforced to the letter without logic or mercy.

I wish you would tell people about Apple cancelling Apple ID’s because of unexplained reasons. People entire libraries of purchased items, songs, software on multiple devices, all songs, movies, ringtones, TV, EVERYTHING wiped clean, your devices effectively bricked because anything that requires an Apple ID such as software updates will fail. Apple says oh just create a new Apple ID, but your purchases will. It transfer. Your songs will not transfer. This is literally Apple declaring war on customers one at a time. Questions and their support is pointless.

I just assumed your bike got stolen again. Good to hear about your getting more exercise!

Apple is an ASSHOLE of a company. The human side has died. My Apple ID was cancelled and locked because over 16 years I accumulated 100 refunds from my family and I over multiple devices. Aside from this “CANCELLATION” affecting my entire family, it’s a financial loss as well. My over 8,000 music, movie and TV library was on Apple, which represents an over $15,000 investment I’d gone. Apples response, create another Apple ID and repurchase them. No debate, no transfer of my purchases possible, all gone. So with respect, 🖕🏼you Apple.

That’s as scary as hell!
