Has anyone experienced being transferred to a store that has a bad reputation? I work for one of three Chick-fil-A's in my city with mine being that one that's best in sales and also work environment wise. In about a month, I'm being transferred as a team lead to another store in my city that's known for having a very toxic work environment, in hopes that I'll be able to develop their culture and make it a better place. Has anyone else experienced this? I'm looking for tips for keeping my head up throughout this and not being bogged down by the culture there. I'm worried that I'll be disliked by the team because they're going to demote a lot of...

I'm purchasing an Ibera bike rack for my Trek mountain bike as I'm doing a charity event for the American Cancer Society in May. Some of you may have heard of it; 300 miles in May (483km). I've decided that I'd bike a particular trail that is 52 miles long (one way) and has a campground a little more than two-thirds the way down and make it a three day trip with two nights of camping as I love camping. Ibera makes bags for their rack, but they are expensive and they aren't very big. Given I backpack and have multiple packs, does anyone have experience with strapping a backpack to their bike rack? I'm assuming yes, and I get that the bike bags are better balanc...

Up front, my goals this league are 50m all at least and all tasks ideally. I'm probably going W/T/M, and the TOB CA's might leave me 400 points short. The relic plan is Endless Harvest (apparently the mining exp/hr is better if you don't have access to amethyst), Woodsman (I **** Hunter and enjoy Sepulchre), Evil Eye, Butler's Bell, Larcenist, Grimoire (on the fence about that one), Reloaded - Soul Harvest, and Minion (also on the fence). Everyone saying that EH and BB are for afk-ers drives me crazy. If you look at the xp rates, the relics are competitive, if not better. Most of the streamer's I've been watching are all-in on Transmutation and I don't ge...

19F 5'6, 130 lbs, no big health conditions diagnosed I don't have an official diagnosis yet, but I have really bad health anxiety. Recently, I've been having anxiety and panic attacks while eating due to fear of anaphylaxis. I actually had a very minor reaction once, and therefore I know they aren't real attacks, even though I'm terrified. So I've gotten good at dismissing my concern, even when my trachea feels like it's on fire. No itching, no swelling. Just warm sensation from focus on it. However, for the past 36 hours I've been having what I presume is intermittent anxiety over the side of my neck. The left side of my neck feels warm "in my ...

There’s a lot of discussion lately about AI models getting really good at detecting issues in large codebases. If that becomes reliable, I think eCommerce will feel it quickly. Not because systems are worse than elsewhere, but because many stores are built in layers: legacy logic, plugins, patches, integrations. There are always issues sitting there. But here’s the part I’m not sure about: finding problems is one thing fixing them is another In real projects, a lot of issues stay unfixed for years. Not because nobody sees them, but because: – they don’t directly increase revenue – they carry risk – they might break something that already works So even if AI s...

Asking in good faith and also not to gate-keep enjoyment of this game. So many people are talking about this update as, and I quote, a Cyberpunk 2077 or No Man's Sky level of "we're so back". Sorry, no TL:DR. If it's too much text, try Adderall. I genuinely don't understand it. I've had the game since launch and although I liked some things (visuals, clutter design, ship builder) I ultimately disliked the core gameplay loop, the main story (which has been a universal criticism since launch), the low stakes, the very PG-13 and do-no-wrong one-dimensional characters that make up Constellation and your companions. I didn't like that no matter how far y...

I’m not sure when the fanfare will wear off, but hopefully not anytime soon cuz I waited my whole life for this. It’s weird the changes are both big and huge to my daily life. Idk because I come from an abusive household and I’m a student I’ve just been poor my whole life, my ultimate dream is independence, finally now I have my own ride and I’m operating on my own timing and I’m not being dusted by literal teenagers lol. I’m about to move in with my best friends and I cannot wait to explore a new city with my very own car and I’m gonna fill it with hello kitty merch if I’m honest lol. I’m 23 and I’ve only ever been able to walk to stuff up to like idk 3 miles in proxim...

A lot of Monster Hunter games describe the hunters as slaying monsters that are causing damage to the ecosystem and they pretend they are just balancing it and stopping the damage. But in those games, after the hunter slays the big bad, the ecosystem ALWAYS starts changing and other monsters that weren't there are now showing up. That's literally changing ecosystems entirely. Not saving them.

I wanted to share a bit of my journey and hopefully get some advice and encouragement from others who may have gone through something similar. I’m currently still only on day 7 of no masturbation, which might not sound like a lot to some people, but for me it’s a big step. I’m 28 now, and I’ve struggled with lust for most of my life. During my teenage years and early 20s, I dealt with repeated lust involving multiple random girls, along with a long history of pornography. I was exposed to sex and **** at a really young age, around 10 years old, and it shaped a lot of my habits in a negative way. During that same period of my life, I was also heavily into drugs and drinking, but by G...

I spoke to a senior person from Infosys at a meetup recently, and honestly, it feels like Indian IT companies are heading into a storm. From what he said, the thinking at Infosys (and apparently other legacy companies too) is pretty clear. The higher-ups are focused on using existing AI tools rather than building their own. According to him, training their own models is basically off the table because they think the return just isn’t worth it anymore (since there are already so many models out there). I laughed and said, “If the Chinese thought the same, we wouldn’t have any open source models today.” His response was blunt: “Yeah, but Chinese models aren’t dependable. They st...

In the first photo 2022lbs, 20 years old was taken in March 2025 I was extremely depressed. I completely stopped taking care of myself, was partying every weekend, smoking w\*\*d every day to cope since I just had my heartbroken broken. I remember looking at myself in the mirror that day and realizing that I needed to change. My whole life was kinda just falling apart in front of my eyes and I knew I deserved better and should be treating myself better as well. So I decided to go to the gym like most of us do when we get our hearts broken and know we need to change one of my biggest struggle is I had no idea what I was supposed to do in the gym. I didn’t know what else to do. I didn’...

Just upgraded from a 2026 Sportage to a 2027 Telluride Hybrid SX, and I’ve noticed a pretty big difference in the driver assist systems. On my Sportage, the lane assist + following distance system felt a lot more “hands-off.” I could go a couple minutes before it would prompt me to grab the wheel, and overall it felt closer to semi self-driving. On the Telluride, it’s way more sensitive. It feels like I have way less time before it tells me to put my hands back on the wheel, and it’s constantly checking. It definitely doesn’t feel as relaxed or “assistive” as the Sportage did. I’m guessing part of this is due to the driver monitoring system (eye tracking / attention moni...

I dropped my giro Owen off of the shuttle near the paid lot at big sky and someone picked it up. I went back to look for it and it was gone. Looking to see if anyone picked it up?

There is a lot of issues with these two figures and the plastic that held these figures. My brother said that they might have been stored in a hot area. The first issues are the bottom parts of Karre's torso, he has a v shaped dent and his armor cannot fit his waist. Second, there is a lot of pain issues; the waist, the cape thing, Am's hair, Am's cape, her neck thing on the left, and the top of her skirt have these issues. Third, Am's lightsabers don't fit. And fourth, the plastic packaging have a blue tint, the plastic is all crumbled up, and there was some red paint on the plastic. I tried returning them, but the seller said that they don't want it because ...

I’m am considering booking a flat in NBR soul of seasons. Floor plan is good, they have taken care if a lot of things like ventilation, sunlight, big balconies. But the carpet area is very less for 1825 sqft ft flat. (1128 sq ft). Also kitchen cum utility makes utility area much smaller. Rooms are spacious but very less space left for wardrobes in room. People who have booked flat there, did you also had these concerns and what are your thoughts on this?

Wanted to gather opinions on a potential move I'm considering, and see if anyone has made a similar move. Throwaway account, as I am pretty active on the current brand's subreddit. Currently, I'm at a smaller luxury brand but part of a large Autogroup. I've been at the job for over a year, and it is my first time being in sales and automotive as a whole. I think overall I've been doing ok, being one of the top performers in my store. I'm a pretty big car guy and have been in various customer service jobs in my life, so very comfortable talking to people and explaining features and benefits to customers. Recently, I've been approached by a VW store to move...

I've never sold any of my luxury watches but there's a first time for everything. I've tried selling it on watch exchange a few months back but didn't really get a lot of bites. Plus my listing had a ton of warning labels/comments from the Reddit automation because I don't have any sales history. It's a great looking watch but I just don't wear it AND it's a little too big for me. I'm thinking of selling it through a website but I know the offers will be low. Not sure if it matters but I'm an American based in the US so I will have to ship it back through international mail which may affect the listing price?

These were the first colorwork socks I’ve knit, but I’m having issues with the fit of my socks in general. They tend to be too tight and the stitches pull weird, as well as a weird fit at the heel (not sitting at the right part on my foot) I’m scared to block it since it’s superwash, but I’m assuming that would help it. I also haven’t woven the ends or closed the holes at the heel yet. I used size 1 shorties, cascade heritage (superwash sock yarn), and did a shadow wrap heel. I had to increase the length of the foot a lot, but I also have big feet. I’m thinking I’ll have to size up in future patterns, but I really want to make these work and I couldn’t find anyone with simi...

maybe it’s just me but coachella feels so… over idk it used to feel like coachella was cool, music was cool, people were cool, styles were fun… there was kinda taste in it, now it just feels tacky and miserable. people spending all that money just to wait in lines all day… bathrooms, showers, food, drinks. ubers are a mess… everything is crowded and annoying. you’re basically stressed the whole time just trying to function and then you get there and it’s a bunch of random influencers thinking they are actual celebrities except no one knows who they actually are outside of their tiktok bubble. and the fashion this year is really painful. it’s not even bad in an interesting w...
