Trying to get the damage estimate for my car that was viciously assaulted by a deer. The guy at the body shop who has the info keeps not calling me back. I finally got a hold of him this morning and he told me he'd call me back in 20 minutes. Like fuck, can you not just look it up? I'm about ready to say fuck it and just pick the $2500+ damage box on my accident report instead waiting and waiting on this guy.

I was stuck working in the heavy wind and rain in the Bay Area in Saturday most of the day and started feeling off yesterday. Take some NyQuil and go to bed , actually feel 10X worse this morning and sore throat is worse and chest feels heavy. FML I DIDN’T WANT TO ENJOY MY DAYS OFF OR ANYTHING.

So go to kitchen for a little bit of food and greeted by a hundreds of ants all over my area around my sink. No clear path of where they came from or where they were going just milling about the sink and walls and countertop nearby. No open food around and there wasn't any there just a couple of hours ago when I did dishes so now I'm super wtfing about this. Think I killed them all though. Only thing I can think of is they came from the sink itself maybe for the warmth?

if it becomes a recurring theme, buy dougnuts. place a doughnut on counter. place ant poison house adjacent to doughnut.

doughnut reels them in, poison kills them. i find the ones with the "caramel" frosting work best.

That is annoying. That happens to us almost every year when it rains. The tiny little black sugar ants all try to get away from the rain and end up in the house. Usually it isn't too bad but we had it really bad one year. Keeping the area extra clean and wiping up the ants daily helps.

Last day in NY and came within 2 feet of hitting a damned deer on a windy rode. Luckily I was going slow enough to stop because I was driving a rental and fuck if I wanted to deal with that.

Yeah, I hit mine right after I went down a hill at 3am, so I couldn't see that it was sprinting towards me. Soon as the road evened out, boom. Guy finally called me back and I got my report sent out. So, now I can finally enjoy what's left of my vacation. Deer in NY really suck, god damned things are everywhere. They need to let hunters take more of them out.

[Tokitoki]

There are a good 7-8 that like my yard because it has the easiest access to the creek in the area. They wander the whole neighborhood so you have to take it slow. Haven't come close to hitting any yet, but it's only a matter of time until there's at least a close call.

[Krazy]

I usually see a few in my yard, there was a buck and two little ones that would come right up to my porch. I used to see herds as big as 20 deer cross the corn fields nearby.

That’s happened to me before when it rained a lot in my bathroom sink before. It was really fucking random. Cinnamon sprinkled about will actually keep them away. We used to have terrible ant issues about 1-3 days each summer in our bathroom on the hottest days since we face a hill.

So that's not working though I think I sort of found where they coming in from. Looks like cracks between walls/counters and just flat out holes to the inside of the walls so can't really do much there. Did get to test that they definitely respond to heat oh boy. Keep it frigid only a handful after a few hours. Turn heat on for 1 hour and it's swarming again.

it's just super weird first time it's happened since I been here and I had field mice invading for awhile creating open food (basically the little fuckers would chew thru damn near anything to get food including things like my super heavy duty 50 lbs rice bag from Costco lol) and I'm second story corner too so take the other apartments first!

[Yuri-G]

I love how the apartment hallway is a god damned cemetery until the one moment I put on some porn without my headphones and suddenly it's a shriner convention out there

EVERY TIME

[dasva]

So girl who hit me isn't really responding to texts... tried calling most the time it goes to voice mail but one time it didn't and texted some after. Guess gunna have to report this after all. Hope she likes the ding on her insurance

[Kalmado]

I've been trying so hard to stay positive at work and just do my job but I just can't anymore. My spirit is broken. Time to start looking for something new.

[Melena]

Astylla's new phone is supposed to be delivered tomorrow. Check Samsung and it shows the phone is still processing, yet the delivery date hasn't changed. Chat support tells me there's a delay and I have to wait for an e-mail to get an updated delivery date, which is kind of bullshit. So now I have to call.

And just got off the phone with them. It got stuck in purgatory as they couldn't get it set up with AT&T to be activated and instead of notifying me, let it sit, then phone support said I'd have to call AT&T myself to resolve it.

Holy shit something extreme just happened at work and I think my coworker who was leaving for pregnancy might get fired. She wrote a new purchase auto policy under her husband's name because he told her he co-signed an auto loan for his little brother. Policy issues just in husband's name. This is key because little brother does not have prior insurance and in the state of Michigan without prior you must go to a high risk company until you have six months experience.

Last week little brother totaled the vehicle. Just now she messages me telling me she's probably going to get fired because A) she never added the brother as a listed driver and B) her husband never co-signed in the end. Uncle did. Husband never had an insurance interest in the vehicle. By all means that vehicle was not covered and now a loan company is looking for their money. She's been an insurance producer for seven years and knows better. Jesus Christ.

I bet she'll end up blaming her BiL for getting her fired too.

Good, she sucks.

A while back my wife told her place of work that they need to provide better benefits for paternity leave or she'll start looking for a new place to work. A couple weeks after that the owner told her that they are making some changes and that she hopes she is satisfied because they want to keep her on. A few weeks ago her supervisor talked to her and said they've implemented a flex spending account where you can deposit money into the account pre-tax to use for medical, baby, etc. stuff. Yesterday she learned that that was the change they were touting.

Wouldn't be so bad if she had more than 4 paychecks to pay into it before going on maternity. Their current policy only gives 50% of pay for 12 weeks, which is exactly what is covered by New York State under their Paid Family Leave legislation. Basically, they're not providing anything extra. Now we're both stressing the next few months as we try to tighten our belts further and the extra stress/anxiety isn't great for the baby either. I suggested that we cut back on going out with friends and got three texts in response that snapped at me. So the next 5 months are going to be great.

It's nice when the world catches up to people like her. Savor the moment, it's been a long time coming.

Idk what your wife does but I feel like ultimatums like this are always doomed

Thru texting me she is taking full responsibility. On something like this, once your creds are on that app, it's you and you alone!

Good, she sucks.

As much as we're cool on a personal level, yeah, work wise she sucks. She writes business, and if my post was any indication it's sloppy.

I agree and I hope it does with the other cancer in the office. If the boss would grow a pair and handle these two chucklefucks I'd be fine with even being alone in the office. I'd be busy as fuck and stressed, but a good stress. Not stressed because these two are always fucking something up and guess who cleans it up. And no, it can't be left alone. That's why over the last six months I've been getting many "I'll only deal with Kalmado" because I actually give a shit.

My email today tried to avoid ultimatum speak as much as possible because I agree, it's usually a bad ending for the worker. Right now I don't have anything to lose. I hope Toki's situation improves though!
