Random Fail: First World Problems

[Ksandra]

Why do people still flyer anyway? Honest question.
Wouldn't any effort be better spent creating an online presence?

Technically we are doing everything. We are redesigning our website, creating blogs, pushing online reviews, etc.

With that said, the school is in an extremely poor area. Many parents don't have computers and/or work too often to be checking things like that.

[Ratatapa]

This is why credit monitoring is important.

I monitor my credit, i usually check it once per week, but I didn't had anything to buy this week so i didn't tought of checking

The strange part is that since he did it near the start of may he didnt withdraw any money from my main account, because i get email alerts when i withdraw money

If your school is going to such lengths to redesign their branding, you should convince them to hire someone with a decent folio. Before I came into this job (the one I currently have), my boss had hired a crappy designer that did his branding and website. Dude did an awful job and I've spent the better half of the past year trying to recreate his image to actually look like it belongs in the present. I'm not a graphic designer but I at least know enough to get by.

Between hiring a personal friend to redesign the site and spending time on his marketing, he's getting a lot more attention now than before.

To give an example, this is what I'm working on:

Spoiler: show

Note, this is still heavily in progress and missing graphics and shit. I'm still working on the copy and the layout of the content.

Yo That Looks good. Nice job!

I got charged $100 for ffxv. And I don't play anymore. Assumed it would cancel out. 6 months subscription. Ugh.

[Byrthnoth]

I made the same mistake. I thought it was a one-time purchase and not auto-renewing.

Good guy pandora offer me a new channel to listen to. Was titled today's hard rock so figured sure let's give it a go. Click it and breaking Benjamin comes on

Shopping for books to give my mom. I spot a hottie in the section perpendicular to the one I was in, so I figure I'll scope out what section it is and see what books she's looking at to make conversation. When I see the section is "Parenting":

My cat has somehow cut herself on her back leg at the joint. Only a minor cut but I don't want it to get infected. She is really excitable and squirmish so now my arm looks like I self harm from fighting with her to get the bandage on. Fortunately she is also not very smart so no matter how many tries it took, she kept instantly coming back. Never actually learning that I was just going to try again.

Probably would be easier if I just grabbed her by the scruff of the neck but because I suck at doing it, I never try it on any of the cats for fear of hurting them

[Airenn]

It's not going to hurt them.

Half way into your post I was already going to tell you to grab 'em by their neck. Or get one of those chip-bag clips and clip it on. Keep 'em still why you trim nails and shit. But I'm of the mind that people that don't do this are wasting their time, energy, and health (cat scratch fever is literally a thing) and that's absurd to me.

[Astylla]

Don't worry about hurting her , just firm but not hard grab the scruff and talk calmly to her telling her you understand and this will only take a few minutes. Using neosporin or anti bacterial gel and washing it well should be enough.

My kitty Jager a few months back tore his back claw bad to the quick and I was more worried than him. I trimmed it down and cleaned it and he did the rest. Just keep an eye on it , it will likely heal fine with little treatment.

So, was driving to the wife's parents place for mothers day. They live about an hour away. During the drive, the wife says to me "Hey, lets debate about something to kill time" After a few minutes of thinking what to debate on, I say... "Actually, we pretty much agree on everything". We then spent the remaining like 40 minutes in silence cause we were both annoyed that we agreed on damn near everything. Kids, Race, politics, ect.

I feel for once that this is probably one of my actual real first world problems.

I've got some more shit(Nothing involving my health(Ever since that little rejection, things are good. Got me working out more, little more challenging, but still good)

Work paid for me to get First Aid training for this new promotion.
The teacher was a fucking retarded. Most notably were a few instances.

"Okay Class, today we're going to learn how to find the pulse, look to the person beside you, thats your pulse buddy, you take his and he'll take yours.

2 minutes later

"Okay, whats everyones pulse"

60, 65, 70, 55, 64, me>62, dude beside me>his was 110

Teachers face goes red. "So you failed to find his pulse. This simple lesson and you couldn't even get it right, are you kidding me? If his pulse was that high he'd be dead."
Me>Uh....no, thats about right for me, seems alittle low today actually.
Teacher> You actually think thats your pulse? Are you as dumb as your classmate?
me>No, I just have a high pulse rate.
teacher>No, a high pulse rate is 80. Not 110. I'm getting ready to kick you both out of the class"
me>Okay, look, I have Cystic Fibrosis and a double lung transplant, I'm on 15 different kinds of drugs. "
Teacher>Oh, that makes sense

Okay next lesson.

That happened an hour before the test so I just wanted to get the fuck out of there. I have a few more stories from that class too. One involving urine

[Boyiee]

Lol at a high pulse being 80 and being dead at 110.

She get paid for this? Cause she shouldn't have a job.

[tyven]

FYI a good debate does not mean people have to believe in the side they are arguing for. FIRST WORLD PROBLEM SOLVED

[kuronosan]

Your teacher is a fucking moron.

[BaneTheBrawler]

i dont think 110 is even that high

that's like high end of normal iirc

even if it were stupid high, thats still no excuse for behavior like that. assuming that's verbatim. if it's verbatim, i'm really starting to think canadians are actually assholes to each other and only put on a polite face for everyone else.
