Become an LLC.

LLC’s have more rights than citizens.

You start an LLC, name it something lawyer sounding like the last names of your friends but never call it a law firm. Call it civil representation.

Then when you get a customer not a client you can send letters on their behalf.

Most people freak out when they get an official looking letter with a “law name” on it. I’m not talking about the minority of people on here, but the majority of the population.

As long as you disclose your LLC does not practice law and you are simply “representing them” in a very general and broad sense you will be good.

They still have it but it is not as common as it once was. Pizza Hut has a book it nonprofit they funnel money into.

Nobody thinks about that but yes it would. You are not immune to the black plague so you might get that even if you are vaccinated. Plus who knows how many viruses and diseases happened back then.

Stone cold vs the rock. In the middle of the attitude era.

That’s a Geo Tracker and it was close to 40 mpg as you were going to get in the late 90s. That and the geo metro.

They show a target employee getting arrested but the target managers and their loss prevention people keep on high fiving and getting excited to fire this person. Cops were excited too. It just seems a little weird to see all these people getting excited about ruining this persons life.

He would be remembered as a martyr. Someone who gave up his life for all of us.

I interviewed a drug dealer that has been in the field for over 25 years. He looks just a regular guy. Nice house. Two kids. A wife who works. You would have no idea this neighbor was a dealer.

He and I wrote a book together.

People’s intuition on risk is wildly off here.

Skydiving sounds insane, but in the U.S. it’s ~9–10 deaths a year out of millions of jumps (roughly 1 in a few hundred thousand per jump).

Driving feels normal, but it kills ~40,000+ people every single year.

So yeah—both involve “transportation,” but the one everyone does casually every day is orders of magnitude deadlier than the one that sounds extreme.

Walmart loss prevention are terrible. They are willing to die so Walmart doesn’t lose $35 worth of food.

I saw a police cam video of a woman who accidentally didn’t scan a $10 item. No big deal. I have been guilty of that myself. You get reminded to scan the item.

These L&P people called the cops and then the cops called for back up. They stopped the woman before she left and had her arrested.

No prior offenses. She had a baby with her (less than a year old). Just someone who made a simple mistake and would easily be fixed with simple conversation.

But Walmart L&P was not having it. Telling the cops to charge her to the furthest extent

Even the cops were like “Hey she didn’t do this maliciously. She has not left the store. She can still pay for the item. “

Walmart L&P told the cops to “teach her a lesson”

The cops were “nice enough” to wait until the baby’s father arrived to take the baby but the woman got arrested for not ringing up a $10 item

The L&P had these smug looks as if they took down some Batman villain. Giving each other high fives when this woman was put in cuffs.

Not to sound like an ass but I don’t understand the whole “Anybody hiring? Need a job fast!”

I ask them about their tech stack because I have a number of recruiters who can’t find people.

They always tell me they don’t have a tech stack and would prefer something retail oriented.

Yes. It looks like mine. With the gumballs on the ground. I read you can get a nut roller (Amazon $40) and roll the gumballs. If that doesn’t work, you can get a lawn vacuum (Amazon $130).

Is this game any good. I bought it awhile ago but I am reluctant to play it because it will either be a 1 hour and I’m over it or a time to play it all night.

I have a sweet gum tree and it produces these gumballs everywhere. They are prickly and get caught everywhere. I would gladly pay $50 to get rid of them all.

This also reminds me of those posts on Facebook where some dude posts “need money quickly. Lost my job. Willing to do anything. Manual labor included”

Then I contact them and offer $250 to do some lawn work. “Appreciate it, but I prefer to work inside”

This gives me flashbacks to when I took over a small call center as there DBA.

Part of their data was in access, part of it was in notepad, and the rest was in a shoddy looking sql database.

It took me two years to get everything into a data warehouse.

But some of those queries. Oof

We have this guy at work whose only job is to make everything more AI-friendly.

He has claimed AI makes work easier. He demonstrated how he could make a PowerPoint in 5 minutes while it may take a human a day.

He’s annoying and nobody likes him.

I used to be an insurance adjuster for a car insurance company. Worst job in the world. I would meet the insured and they are going through a terrible time. Then I would meet with the auto shop and they want to make as much money as possible. Then I would need to negotiate to get a reasonable number. Then I find out instead of repairing the dents and dings they just put Bondo on the whole thing. So the insured gets a piece of crap vehicle back and the auto shop and insurance company makes an incredible amount of money.

I quit after three weeks.

There are many examples of people crashing out based on popular police cam channels

My kids call me old fashion because I listen to 90s - mid 2000s music exclusively.

My kids listen to newer music (I don’t know the bands) but I show them the impact of 90s and 2000s music had on the industry.

I used Sora to quickly develop a video for a skit or to see if something can be done via AI.

I used Sora as an outlet for my creativity. Now we have Veo and Meta
