Mizufusion posted:I'm a bouncer at a bar/restaurant in a busy downtown area. Normally our customers are really chill, and we haven't had a fight inside since we opened a few months ago, but tonight there was a serious verbal altercation right outside that started to turn violent. It was between a really huge dude and his tiny girlfriend(?), so we were pretty concerned. He started screaming at random bystanders from the bar next door, then came over to me and the other bouncer checking IDs at our bar and threatened both of us just for being there. Neither of us could call the cops with him in our faces, or his three friends that came over to try intimidating us, so my husband made the call. When the cops showed up, they pretty much told him to gently caress off because he's not an employee or a victim. Apparently you're not allowed to call the cops if you're just a concerned citizen. Or if your wife is being threatened. That not a First World Problem. That's a really loving serious problem with your police force.

The pharmacy was out of all bottled water except smart water, and gently caress if I'm going to pay $2 for 12oz of water. So I had to wait almost an hour till I got to work to drink water. I had my tea with me but I wanted water

The company that runs my companies share options scheme doesn't give me the option to take all the money from it and them not withhold tax since I want to handle that myself as I think they are withholding way too much.

I was on a first class flight recently and they had a lot of really good movies I wanted to watch. The plane wide announcements keep pausing my movie and I just want to watch Kingsman without stupid safety tips interrupting my movie. The flight also wasn't long enough for me to watch all the movies I wanted to watch, so I had to pick and choose.

Chinaman7000 posted:First post in this thread that makes me want to give condolences. Rough day. Me too, my first thought was "go back and complain to get a new one" because getting the wrong shell on a taco can ruin your meal. E: now I want some tacos. I have them in my freezer, and I have the sour cream, cheese, tomatoes, and cilantro in the fridge, but it'll take like 20 min but I already had dinner. First world problem: considering whether or not to have two dinners. Thin Privilege has a new favorite as of 03:01 on Aug 4, 2015 |

dropped a grand on a class and the next day I got jury duty on the first day of the schedule. If I get called in I'm gonna find some angle that doesn't belong in a courtroom because the $17.05 isn't gonna make up for the missed day of the short class.

My audiobooks always are just getting to an exciting/interesting part when I have to stop the car and go to work. I can't listen to them in the lab either for ~safety reasons~.  . Im pretty sure I'd still hear the fire alarm over the book.

The phone I broke and posted about in this thread? Apparently it can't be fixed, since there are no parts available for it. According to the guy I asked (who finally got back to me), "It's not worth it for a phone that's a two-year-old model that cost 180€ on release, so they don't sell the parts anymore." So I had to drop 200€ on a new phone. I can totally afford it, but I wanted to spend those 200€ on something else

That's gotten me out of jury duty and off their list for the rest of my life. They won't even ask for any proof, at least they don't where I'm from. I actually am Bipolar, though, so I guess I could have had my doctor fax over a letter or something had I really needed.

Typical smartphone problem. My 2 year plan is up and I can't decide if I want a new phone or not. My Samsung is still perfectly serviceable but I really want one with a better camera.

My computer keeps throwing errors when I try to update to Windows 10. I don't particularly care, as from what I've heard it's a system-raping trainwreck, but I'd like to at least see what it's like.

I thought it had near-universal acclaim so far. Also, lots of errors are fixed with changing the region settings on your computer as Microsoft didn't know any civilization existed outside of English (US).

It has it's fair share of bugs, but I imagine even Windows 7 wasn't perfect a week after it launched. I wouldn't call it a system-raping trainwreck.

Win 10 has some compatibility issues with games right now so if you play a lot maybe wait to upgrade.

My parents believe in homeopathy They are reasonable people who simply don't know about the difference between that and actual medicine, but the "painkiller" they're taking works perfectly because of the placebo effect, and it's either that or actual painkillers daily which in the long term are bad for you, so I'm torn on whether to tell them or not.

I'd leave em be. I'd worry about it if they did that poo poo for serious health problems, but as a general painkiller, no real harm done. If it doesn't work one day, introduce them to aleve and tell em it's all natural.

My iPhone screen is turning yellow from so much use but I don't want to spend money on a new phone. I spend too much time on my iPhone, probably more than I do on real life things. I need to do real life things but I am lazy E: I hate apple and want to switch to android, but that means I'll have to re-buy all my apps and learn a new OS and that's mildly difficult.

I spent probably 6 hours today doing strenuous yard work, cutting, dragging and chipping limbs from the woods surrounding my house. I'm really proud of how much I got done and how good it looks and now I have a huge pile of wood chips I can use as mulch in my flower beds. But tomorrow I'm going to have to actually go back out there and spread the mulch. And now I'm tired of yard work. The pile is almost shoulder high!
