    I had a professor that seemed to take great pride in the fact that a good portion of students barely passed his class each semester. Like he thought the fact a small percentage of the class could score higher then a C showed he wasn't screwing around.
    One of my classmates, as she was dropping the class told the professor that our grades reflect worse on him then it does on us and he might want to rethink how he teaches before the school realizes how absolutely worthless he is as a teacher.

      It's "the loose but behind the wheel." That's true for a multitude of reasons with not just sounds, but also when driving a 20 year old vehicle at 80mph and complaining about the wheel shaking a little or pulling slightly to one side, or not being as responsive as they expected. If you want your 2005 civic to handle like a 2020 porch, expect to replace everything from the tires and rims to the bushings and bolts to the frame including the steering wheel and possible the transmission. It's 20 years old for gods sake and they expect it to behave like a brand new car.

    "Grading papers takes a really long time."
    I was an undergrad TA for three semesters. We only graded one or two papers per semester. They take fucking forever and a good chunk of them made me want to drink.
    If any students want a tip, make your papers/projects coherent, organized, and neat. Regardless of the contents of the paper, a professor is more likely to grade easier if your work doesn't give them a headache.

    This is absolutely true. Working fast food, we can hear anything at the speaker if any one of us turns their mic on, or there is a car triggering the sensor. Not only do we hear you screaming at your kids in the back, but we'll also hear your phone conversations, your shitty brakes that make all of us go deaf when you screech to a halt, the roar of your engine if you are compensating for something, the guy racing down the street nearby, the sirens of the police car chasing the guy racing down the street, the employees from adjacent fast-food restaurants saying "Hi how are you!?" over and over, and babies screaming their heads off in the back.
    The fact that I can hear all of this, means that it isn't easy to hear you unless if you talk in a loud voice (not screaming, but like you are trying to talk to someone through a closed door). If I can't hear you, it's usually not my fault. The three times I can't hear you are A: You pulled too far away from the speaker/mic. The sound gets distorted the further away it is from the mic, and it is much harder to hear someone speaking from that distance. Similarly, B: You are ordering from the passenger seat of the car. The same issue with distance as pulling too far away, except you can fix this issue easily by LETTING THE DRIVER ORDER (unfortunately this is not always easy, as I've seen situations where the adult driver doesn't speak English, but the child passenger does. In that case, refer to C). C: Your voice is too quiet. If you mumble a lot (like me, but I've learned to kill that habit by actually working drive-thru), we are not going to be able to hear you. As I said before, imagine you are talking through a closed door. If you find yourself in a situation where you are further than usual, just increase the volume of your voice as if you were further away from that door.

      @@jaalanodaicyr868 while I can't speak for whatever restaurant it is, there is always a bit of unclear moments especially if the person taking your order is multitasking. If you say something like "sausage and cheese and no egg" they might not hear the "no", so avoid mentioning the egg unless the item comes with it by default (and if it does, in my experience it isn't cheaper to remove an ingredient). Also, every word you utter that isn't a food item or a common request is harder for our ears to pick up, so if you ask us over and over to make sure there is no egg and then mention how many times you got egg by mistake, that increases the chances of confusion and a mistake being made. Keep it simple. Also you didn't mention it so I'm gonna also say pull close to the speaker.
      There's also the chance you just have a not very good listener on the other side of that speaker and I'm sorry if that happens sometimes that just happens.
      Edit: or they don't realize there is an sausage and cheese biscuit that's cheaper. I've seen new people give people items for way more than they should be because they don't understand the POS

      Big tip for anyone who drives an automatic car, shift into Neutral if they can't hear you, your engine will get quieter as it's no logner fighting the torque converter against your brakes. You will also save fuel if you shift into neutral while stopped, or if you're stopping for a while, put it right into park. I used to drive a diesel automatic, and no drive through could hear well unless I put it into N/P and the engine RMP actually dropped down to true idle.

    A lot of people think that standard message when you call tech support of "This call may be monitored or recorded for quality or training purposes" is just a meaningless legal disclaimer.
    It isn't. People listen to those phone calls.
    They read your surveys, too. And anything less than a full star (3, 5, whatever the max is for that system) actually negatively impacts our work rankings and can even affect the agent's pay.
    So if you think "Eh, he was great but unless I got unbelievable service, 4 stars is as high as I go"... you may as well have given him 1 star. Because in the call center biz, it's top tier or nothing.

    The letting a patient go thing is so difficult, sometimes not because the families are being selfish but because the doctors are told "you have to do everything for every patient without (age, medical history etc) discrimination." It took nearly two years of struggling after my grandmother was diagnosed with breast cancer at age 82-83 for her to die. She wanted euthenasia immediately after the diagnosis. She had a bad hip, a fake knee that didn't heal properly so she couldn't walk and had chronic pain, itches on her back that she couldn't scratch that were driving her nuts, nearly all the grandkids were already adults and her friends and husband had all died. She was d o n e. And they refused to let her die, cause she had a usually treatable cancer and could prolong her life until maybe 85. They did not listen to her low quality of life. The only way for her to get anything she actually wanted done was for my mom (who is a doctor) to talk to the medical professionals in their own terms. Eventually they got the nurses and floor doctor to agree that if she stopped eating, they would up her sleep/pain medication a bit so she didn't suffer while starving herself. She passed away in her sleep the day after. I think her body was just waiting for that relaxation and the reassurance that the struggle was finally over.
    This way it's choosing death by yourself rather than having the dr agree to euthanasia, which is "easier" to accomplish. It sucks but it's the way many old people eventually go if they are denied euthanasia. My mother and her siblings now each have a recipe for an easy and painless "pill of death" type thing so that if they're ever in this situation, they can end it themselves and don't have to suffer through however many years of euthanasia denials.

    Sailor here. When ships go through narrow channels and drift too close to the edge, the correct thing to do is increase speed and turn slightly towards the "wall".
    The pivot point of a ship is very far forward, so steering away wont turn the bow away barely at all, it will only push the stern further towards the wall.
    The ship creates a high pressure area in the water at the bow, which when getting close enough to a wall or barrier for the water, will automatically push the bow away from that obstacle. The stern has a low pressure area and does the opposite, sucks itself closer to the obstacle. Thats why you steer in the opposite dorection of where you want to go, to prevent the stern hitting the edge of the canal.
    Also bowthrusters dont work above 3-4 knots, speed 2 is bs.

He offers 50k and to take the gang leaders son as a ward to give him a better life by moving thr child and taking him to a good school etc. Then the drama will be about the boy experiencing 2 different sides

    I worked in a homeless shelter for 8 years. What amazed me is that most of the men who stay there liked being homeless. There was lots of programs to help the get into public housing and find jobs, but very few took advantage of them. I knew one guy pretty well who told me that he liked living in his "campsite" and that he only came into the shelter if it got really cold. Most of the men would just work a day job called "catching out" and would make about $50 which was enough for beer and cigs for the rest of the week. Otherwise, they ate at the shelter, got new clothes once a week and a free place to stay. Why work?

    TL/DR: Drive thru timers suck for all of us
    As a drive thru worker, I'd like to confirm what was said in the video and add to it. It's true we can hear EVERYTHING. The sensitivity on those headsets is so high that when emergency vehicles drive by with their sirens blaring, I have to tell people to hold on a few seconds. I then pull the headset away from my ear and wait until it has passed. In addition, we have timers on our drive thru. Our employer, Taco Bell in my case, requires us to get you through the line in a certain amount of time. This is why, if you can't make up your mind relatively quickly, we will ask if you have any questions, or say something to try to speed things up. We aren't trying to be rude, but they ride us hard about those times. Next time you go to a drive thru, please try to know what you want or at the very least, familiarize yourself with the menu online before you arrive so when you get to us you don't have to spend 7 minutes just reading the entire menu. *Ask us questions!* This can help you and us both! Also, if you show up 5 minutes before we close, we may be out of certain ingredients. We won't wait 30 minutes to bring a full bag of chicken up to temp just for a $10 sale, nor should you expect us to. We try to stay on top of things, but sometimes unexpected large orders drain our ready-to-serve supply late at night. Also, on that note, if you come during the day when our lobby is open and you want to order $40, $50, $60 worth of food, please, for the love of (whatever you love here), please come inside! We are not allowed to park people like Culver's does. You wouldn't believe the anger and frustration this causes us and sometimes, your food will suffer as a result. Order 3 taco party packs? Don't be surprised if the ingredient portions are smaller than you'd expect or if one or two of your crunchy tacos are broken before you even open the box.... The tacos break easily sometimes and we're working fast to get your order out so we don't get b****ed at for our drive thru times. If only one or two break, we don't care. We will send it out anyway. The price you pay for putting us in that position.... I don't usually make the food. As I said, I'm a drive thru guy. But I know how to make food so I'm versatile and can help on the line for these huge orders. I've also seen food go out with obscene amounts of chipotle sauce or some other limited time hot sauces we've had..... By the way, we've implemented many new procedures to accommodate the Covid. Some of these slow our process down and the company still insists on these fast drive thru times. Frankly, I stopped caring about times long ago, but certain managers are pushing us hard and whether I care or not, I have to do whatever to keep my job. So I take shortcuts and so do others. Nothing that will harm your food, but just certain steps that are stupid and pointless anyway. If you have any questions about what the steps or processes are, or anything else, feel free to ask! I'm happy to answer any and all questions about anything... If you made it this far, thank you! 🤗🤗🤗

    "Failing a student is absolute agony for most professors." I call bullshit. Maybe for *some* but not most. I went to college for a year (an accident prevented me from continuing) after graduating high school, and then again a few years later at a community college. Out of a total of around 15 classes, 9 of my teachers flat out said on the first day of class that some people would fail. They used a bell curve, and it didn't matter what anybody did or didn't do, the bottom 15% of the class were guaranteed to fail. Like, if everybody in the class got an everage of 90%, but two students got an average of 88%, that "B" would turn into an "F" for both of them. In fact, that's the reason I gave up on college after that year of community college. I was doing okay... not terrible and not great, just decent... in 2 of my 4 classes, but still "failed" anyway because of the bullshit bell curve thing. I SHOULD have gotten a C+, but because I was on the low end of the class I still got a failing grade. Essentially, I was being punished not because I did very bad, but because most others did better than me. Well, of course they did, they just graduated a few months ago and it's been 5-6 years for me.

      Fire sprinklers in most places like businesses and apartments aren't meant to put out a fire. Those sprinklers are meant to give you more time to get out. The increase of flammable material and objects is exponentially increasing, and water doesn't work on electrical or oil fires. I install fire sprinklers, and it's ridiculous that most of our service calls are idiots breaking the heads. Also, most homes have the sprinkler line connected to the master toilet, so everytime you flush you change the sprinkler water. Anywhere else has static water in it that doesn't get flushed and refilled until usually a year later and that water will stain everything.

Prison is supposed to take problem people and make them not a problem, not turn them into white supremacist murders.
      And if the point is 'they never leave the system', stop screwing around and just sentence them to death. No reason to torture them and waste money if you really and truely want them 'gone for good' because they made a mistake. But I doubt the average knuckle-dragger in the US would see the big picture and vote on prison reforms that lower recidivism and make prisons not gang-member factories for most people who go there 'because it's supposed to be punishment.'

    Used to work at UPS.
    Yes, people are throwing your packages around. On top of that the machines and conveyor belts that sort and send your packages across the warehouse can often cause the packages to get caught and tear, in extreme cases I've seen packages get jammed up together and they'll get compressed down and break the contents, or heavy packages will slide down chutes and pancake lighter ones. Also, the packages all get stacked ontop of eachother from floor to ceiling all the way from front to back of the UPS trucks - in theory this is an elaborate game of Tetris, in practice the loaders often are being rushed and the 'load quality' could vary from that near-perfect Tetris load all the way down to a haphazard pile of boxes. Likewise, when the truck gets unloaded the unloaders are under severe time pressure and are likely throwing your package onto the conveyor belt.
    Oh, and the worst. I always hated whenever I had to do this, but if your box gets broken and sent to a service center (just a dedicated handling point for damaged packages in a building), we tended to just salvage what we can, tape it back together, and ship it on. I was told by management on several occasions over the years to "let the customer file a damage claim".
    TL;DR When shipping something, take steps to protect the contents of your package, because UPS won't.

      Stuff always fell off the cargo barrows too, we didn't have enough so we always had to pile them high meaning that with every bump something would fall off.

    12:45 this is also true of most government cars. essentially when a city needs cop cars or the like they'll call up the company and iron out what they need in it and they'll stipulate a uniform key (so if a cop loses the car key, they've got 20 copies) and usually the manufacturer is too cheap to actually make a new key just for that small order so they use a standard car key. the scary part comes when things like the gun lock and recording box come as part of the deal, in such cases the same key that opens the car will unlock the gun and it's a random key from a narrow selection of different locks. if you own a crown victoria or some other car that's standard for law enforcement there's a chance your key will also unlock a cop car. There's a guy who does advises on security who has a few speeches on youtube about all the ways to get past a lot of standard security, everything from key/pin gates using the same key to gain access inside the box, to simple motion unlock sensors (dude even unlocked the door of a closed bank by spitting a beer between the gap of their double door) the world is remarkable less safe than most people like to think it is. (also on a random note, 9 times out of 10 if you call a lock company because you got locked out of your house, they'll just drill out the lock. It's faster and they can sell you a new lock and an unfortunate number of them don't bother checking that you actually live there before drilling it out)

    Very true about professors. Grading takes forever. Especially ones work that really requires thought. We have to make a rubric for each assignment and that takes time. It’s difficult to fail students because more failures make the department look bad and students won’t want to major in those studies. Also where I am at least, before giving a student a fail we are required to conference the moment we notice their grades are slipping because it cuts down in liability. Times have changed. When I was in college it was you do or die.

    Used to work security at a hospital, holding down drunk or drugged up patients so the nurses can put catheters was almost a daily thing. Once had a nurse thank me but looked at me weird and dismissed me after I said "no problem I get paid for doing this." I thought it was what I said that annoyed her but I was explained by a different nurse about how the nurse was most likely thanking the half chub because it made her job a little easier (a lot of nurses in my hospital hated security). Also, if a nurse asks you to hold down the hips... You don't need to hold down the hips, the nurse is fucking with you. During my first week I had a nurse tell me to hold a guy's hips down and my partner told him to shut up and let us do our jobs, partner told me that you only need to hold down the thighs but usually we just strap them in if they're a legit risk during the process and that the nurse was probably trying to get me pissed on. Never had anyone's urethra shredded but that's just because the catheter process never went wrong in my presence.

    • @Joseph_Biten
      @Joseph_Biten 2 роки тому

      @@BROODxBELEG Nurses piss patients off, usually by lying, so security doesn't like them due to making our job harder. Nurses don't like security because we aren't really allowed to do anything - we can't touch the patients.
      A good example is a couple of nurses who was struggling with a cracked out patient who was at a great risk to himself due to the drugs in his system and he's a risk to the nurses as paranoid he was. Security was called to strap this guy down so they can stick a needle in his arm and when the guy kept freaking out and asking "why are they here, why are they here" the nurses said "they're just here to watch." This pissed me off because the guy knew that we weren't "there to watch" so he was getting combative and my job was about to become pretty fucking dangerous. I straight up told the guy that we weren't there to watch, we're there because he's seen as a risk and we might have to strap him down if it gets out of hand. The guy didn't want to be strapped down and after a few minutes of talking to the guy I managed to calm him down a bit and he let us strap him down as long as the straps weren't too tight on him. The nurse fucking HATED me for how I handled the situation and even reported me for obstructing her practice but my partner and supervisor took my side in to saying that I deescalated the situation as the patient was seeming to become violent.
      An example for the nurses is when some homeless guy came in screaming at the very nice front desk nurse that I enjoyed working with. I tried asking him politely to relax because I can't have him screaming in a hospital but he kept on. Eventually a boss nurse lady walked in and told me to get him out of her but I wasn't allowed to do that because I'm not allowed to touch anyone that isn't a physical danger and the hospital has this policy where we can't turn any patient away. The homeless guy wanted me to call the police for him so he can report the hospital for not helping him so I told him to sit down and shut up and I'll call the cops for (on) him.
      Tl:dr nurses hate security because we aren't allowed to do anything and security hates nurses because they make our jobs harder.

    If you go to a seafood restaurant and smell that "fish" smell- leave immediately. The amount of fish isnt enough to give off that smell if its fresh. Fish should be relatively odorless in smaller amounts, so that fishy smell means its spoiled, and no longer safe to eat.
    On that note, lobster places keep live lobsters on site because lobsters need to be either cooked or frozen immediately after they are killed, or their decomposing corpses will develop a toxin that is fatal to consume. If it doesn't kill you, you can bet your ass you'll be sick as shit for a while.

      There's a bit to this, basically it boils down to either wish fulfillment or rose tinted glasses. The pressures on men to work themselves to death, lead many to idolize their high school years. Because that was (for a lot of them) the last time they had any freedom or could display any individualism. Then for others it's a wish fulfillment thing the time they lost that could have been those best years if only they hadn't had all that pressure or more freedom. That's why so much anime takes place in HS and why so many westerners seem to think japanese men are just perving on HS aged girls.
      It's really not that simple, it's more of a desire for a simpler time when they weren't pressured to conform as much and could explore romance. Instead of being pressured into marrying asap (if you have time to find a wife) and work insane hours to the point of not seeing your family much till you retire and die. Between the pressure and lack of time they end up with one of the fastest declining birthrates and a unusually high number of virgins past collage age. Oh and one funny thing there was a study done once that showed a spike in natural death rates for wifes of retired men because of stress. Suddenly that guy you hardly see is now constantly around, bored, and now their free time is taken up dealing with him.

    Worked at Taco Bell. Every item is made to order. The ingredients aren't but we can't put tacos and burritos together and let them sit under a heat lamp all day. They'd get very stale very fast or soggy. We develop speed that seems inhuman from the outside. Yes we can make the your 10 item plus order in under 2 minutes. Muscle memory and consistently making the same burritos makes moving fast easy. Due to the Muscle memory it's the reason we usually accidentally put a topping on you didn't want. It's harder to not put the food on than to stop ourselves from doing it. Yes a lot of teenagers come to mind when you think fast food employee but the reality is most of skilled staff that make the food and generally keep the stores going aren't not the teens but 20 to 40 year olds. Tge teens don't have the discipline, minds or work ethic yet to do much past cashiering. Teens also can't use the fryer, boiling water tanks that heat the food or any type machine that could possibly cause injuries so only adults can do 90% of the work. Also it can be a very stressful job and most people can't do it for more than a month. You'll be cursed out, harassed, hit on and have to deal with drunks, druggies, Karen's and aholes daily. Yet people think it's a good job for a teenager who will be hit on by old perverts, or bothered by strung out creeps or entitled idiots. I don't recommend fast food for a teen. Sorry long read.

    I’m a line cook. The secret to making food taste so good that restaurants use is simple: salt, sear, and grease. Deep fried food tastes great because we actually deep fry it when you order it, in an actual deep fryer. Meat, burgers especially, taste good because we put a good sear on it and use plenty of salt. Herbs and spices are a small part of it too, but the sear and the salt are crucial.

      @@plmokm33 That it does, it's a powerful tool in the kitchen, but obviously using the wrong amount can be disastrous. Sear is also important in regards to flavor because that sear or browning is the result of what chemistry calls the Maillard reaction, basically changes in the chemical makeup of the food due to the exposure to heat in the absence of water.
      This is why a grilled chicken breast tastes better than a boiled chicken breast even if both aren't seasoned at all, the actual chemical structure of the meat is changed by the heat of the grill.
      Usually it creates a more savory or umami taste, and it applies to vegetables, fruits, and grains the same as it does to meats. In more sweet foods it can cause caramelization, resulting in a sweeter yet more savory taste such as that found in grilled pineapple.

      I can't stand teachers like the one narrating that story. If a student is doing poor work, that student should fail, period. Grade leniency is seriously bad business, imo. It's not fair to encourage someone to continue spending their money doing something they aren't good at.

    If you have a Bunn home coffeemaker, pay attention to the warranty information. If it malfunctions within warranty, call Bunn customer service and give them the info. Depending on the problem you will either receive a part to fix it (with instructions) or a completely new machine. Also, if you live in a high-altitude area like Denver, MAKE SURE you buy a coffeemaker for that altitude (it should have an H or other letter code to indicate this). Otherwise, it won't work. That same coffeemaker will work at low altitudes, but regular coffeemakers without that code just won't do the job.

    9:42 If you work at Target & catch someone stealing, you can actually be rewarded depending on what it was that they tried to steal. Caught someone trying to steal a video game & got $30 for reporting it. I worked at one of the biggest locations in the US so I’m not sure how many stores do this but they treated everyone pretty well.

      Welfare day is the same in high end restaurants. That’s the day the entire late seating consists of fill in reservations of ppl wearing hoodies and trucker hats which they leave on through dinner, place their cell phone on the table, don’t know what a bread plate is, use every piece of silverware they have for just one course (and it all has to be replaced), don’t know which wine glass is theirs, don’t know that tartare is raw, don’t know what ala carte is, and thinks that a $20 tip on a four course $400 dinner is adequate because that’s more than what they typically spend on an entire meal for 4 at the McDonalds down the street. We servers loathe you, we laugh about you in the back, and go out of our way to avoid giving you extras or things on the house. Freebies are regularly and happily supplied to patrons who are polite and respectful. They are our top priority. It’s not about the size of the check…it’s about your manners and whether you treat us as professionals or slaves. If you make unreasonable demands or are rude or act entitled, you aren’t getting shit. Your portions will be smaller, your regular coffee will be decaf, you’ll get the old stale rolls sitting in the back, your ketchup will come to you in a dish that still had dirty dishwasher residue, and your silverware that had to be replaced will be the bent up dirty stuff. Your order goes in last, your wait to get things you want will be forever, and we’ll be “out of things” or unable to do special requests. We already KNOW you won’t be tipping us…you go to the absolute bottom of our list of 20 things that had to be done 5 mins ago. Simply being polite to a server goes a loooong way because of the abuse we have to put with. We will do WHATEVER it takes to reward you for just being pleasant and to make you happy. If you’re an asshole, you are dead to us.

    18:35 Goodness, Chick-Fil-A really is just like the BEST place ever isn't it. They're so nice it's absurd. I watch this channel that did a prank call and said "Hi, I am dying of aids and I have this coupon for a free chicken sandwich that says I'm dying of aids." And the lady on the phone was like, "Sure, we'd be happy to take that." And he just kept fucking with her and she was like, "Yes we're happy to, I'm very sorry about your condition and wish you the best." And he gets off the phone and he's just dumbfounded like, they're just, actually really genuine and care. It was supposed to be a goof and it ended up being very wholesome lol.

      This is why I can't boycott Chick-fil-A, even if some bozos say to "because they are Christian and therefore disagree with abortion."
      I don't care what your religious views are. I will support Chick-fil-A because they are amazing people.
      Same reason I support my local Arby's, and my local Subway (both best ones in my city)
      I don't eat at any of these places much anymore, but when I do I'm always happy to do so. :)

      @@Nerketur Boycotting someone’s business because of a political disagreement, as long as they’re still good people and run a good business is extremely petty in my opinion. If someone is like that I’m totally fine with not getting their business. I know you just said you wouldn’t either so I’m not accusing you of anything, just to clarify.
