  • *zon got to the point where they heavily counteract the refund game. They hardly check for items that are <$50, but, beyond that, there’s an increased amount of effort to make sure that they can punish the customer. If there are enough returned items laying around that it becomes an issue from a common account, they’ll actually look back over years to see the total value and if they shouldmake an example out of the person. That was a bit more common regarding high-priced tech items.


  • Literally had only one guy manager since I was working in high school. Had many jobs since then. It’s always women in management because “girl boss!!” and they appeal to higher administration and HR. Another corporate method of demeaning men in workplace and fake news to back it up.


  • Big ol’ cascade effect. Even back in late 2015, they made an update to old-gen release consoles (PS3, 360) that prevented users from loading directly into Online upon booting up the game. If you chose that option; endless load loop and an eventual crash. From that point on until forever, you had to load singleplayer and use the shoddy interface to select an Online game for your multiplayer character.

    They have a history of ruining Online with every update. I can only imagine all of the problems that accumulated since then, if it is even playable at all on those consoles.




  • I’m a recent university graduate who has been working in different entry positions since early high school. I thought a health Bachelors was going to finally allow me to obtain stable, relevant employment but it has done none of that so far: Healthcare institutions only care if you’re a nurse and the one corporate job I got is substition-based, so I can only work if someone calls off which is highly inconsistent and unsustainable.

    I feel like my only option is to apply for grad school in a medical profession pipeline, but I’m nervous about asking for letters of recommendation.

    Most relevant job apps either deny me after a few days or simply do not respond. Even research or lab jobs no call me after a while, regardless if I follow up by contacting them directly.

    Edit: Additionally, I can’t even get unemployment as my last job was PRN during my intense year of classes and they need you to have been working near full-time hours for a number of weeks to get it.
