I feel like my dog would ditch my unconscious body after a while but get scared when a stranger approaches, and then accidentally bring them to me. Random thought.

My blowpipe.

They'll pay for your license and training! I worked in the auto department, and we were licensed in personal lines. Technically, we can sell home, boat, pet, etc... It's pretty decent. It's your standard call center environment. Good benefits, decent pay, okay leave, and hours are pretty flexible due to hours of operation. There's a strict word tree you follow and a series of resources. I worked at corporate, though. I never touched sales or claims. They paid more, but it seemed a lot more soul sucking, IMO. The most stressful thing was dealing with payments.

If you show a good history of customer service, they'll probably hire you and pay for your license.

I'm not sure which department would require that specific license. Casualty was wrapped up pretty well in personal lines, but that's for CA corporate. In customer service, we mostly helped people get insurance at car dealerships, helped people process payments, and answered questions. Sorry if this is the wrong state. That's a big thing as well. CA license carries over well for a lot of states.

When I worked at Geico, we'd say, "Hi thank you for calling Geico, this is *******, your licensed professional. How can I help?"

One time the southern slipped out, and I just said, "Howd'y this is *****.", and stopped talking.

I didn't even realize it until my boss started laughing at me and played the recording.

Idk if it's just me, but I mostly seed software nowadays. That seems more important than entertainment, IMO.

Edit: i should've specified I have a shitty computer and internet.

Beatles. Beatles everywhere. Bowl cuts will go crazy.

Are you raw dogging? You need adblockers, brotha.

Edit: Check out the host for adhd memes, and pick the second most popular community. Pick the mega thread, and it should be self-explanatory from there.

Awh, that sucks. I thought it was going to be the rash thing.

That's our goat run she got herself stuck in

 

The other day, I made a post about Firefox's web extensions, specifically for YouTube. A lot of people pointed out Mozilla's recent TOS update, which pertains to selling personal data. I noticed there were no suggestions, though. What alternative would you suggest, Lemmy?

 

It can be a bit buggy at times, but when it comes to just playing music with the screen locked, it's perfect.

Edit: I forgot to also mention that ad blocker extensions make sailing the seas on mobile much more manageable. Extentions, in general, have been a really nice addition.

I added wooden planks to my chicken run's door frame, so mice couldn't get through the gap. Today, I closed my pinky between the door/ pole, chicken wire, and a rough board. The family member that came out to help, brought a drill and revved it a few times. I freaked out and used a marshmallow stick to undo the latch. Also, this is a temporary enclosure for a sick bird.

This is by the same Channel that made SCP: Overlord. They had a nearly successful Kickstarter and transferred the funds to this film. So, a lot of us have been excited for this for a while.

 

I'm about to finish the new main quest. Just got smacked by someone "cold". I love these quests, the island, the colours. I was already loving perilous moons as well. I hadn't played in a while, and these were perfect additions to help jump back in. I'm also super excited about regen potions. I don't have my cheese cape, so hopefully, the regen will help with switches at the end!

How are you guys enjoying the new content?

 

I'll never forget his contribution to the fallout community, as well as my childhood.
