When did this happen, and how am I just finding out about it?

This man look like he put him in a coffin lol.

This man really hit him with that star trek move. But I think other dude is just giving a Daniel Day Lewis level flopping performance

Hoes got preferred pronouns now. Lmao

 

They have a problem with being referred to as a prostitute (they prefer escort/companion) but not the actual act itself of prostitution.

 

This world doesn't make sense anymore, we need a restart. Just burn everything and start over 😂

It's like the fall of Rome. Everyone just wants to do whatever, whenever without any shame or judgment. And don't want to do the necessary things to maintain a strong stable society. All this is fine until another nation notices. And decides to be bold enough to try you. Or do things they otherwise wouldn't if you were strong.

This man has truly mastered mind over matter. So much so that by choosing when he wants to not acknowledge gravity? He can remove gravity's effect at precise moments.

Happy Friday yall! Let's start it out great...like this...

 

 

It's funny how these type of sistas. Also wanna cry about black women not being protected. As if these types don't invite most of the danger and problems in their lives. If he was a dude that had no chill and had time for dat shit? She then be shouting "YoU aRgUiNg WiTh a FeMaLe" Looking around to the men in the area "NoNe oF yA gOnNa HeLp???"

These are very very rare. 

No argument there. I will say though. It's much less evident that a company lacks these qualities. In say my line of work or similar. Because there's way more on the line than just money. So even if management has a ends justifies the means approach. Most of us mechanics will not cross that line. And will  challenge management or another mechanic of need be.

But if its mainly just about money? Then yeah management has to enforce a work culture of integrity or people will do whatever to get that commission.

Commission work makes temptation for ar too strong. 

I worked 2 commission jobs when I was 18 and 19 And I can say for a fact. These jobs are the epitome of attitude reflects leadership. If leadership prioritizes numbers above all with little to no overseight? Oh yeah there will be fuckery among the Salesforce.

But on the flip side. If you have a company that actually values good relationships with their customers, and their reputation? They'll make sure their people are not on that type of time.

I made decent money and made the company a fuck ton of money before they canned most of our sales team.  I didn't think it was worth it to be honest, I put in a ton of hours to be sent out the door without a severance right before Christmas time.

Damn that's rough man. Sorry that happened. My point is simply. Don't go hard being a company man. Never that. Go hard to get yours. And make moves from there to do your own thing. I wasn't on this type of time in my 20s. Lord knows I wish I was. But I'm on it now. 

Being loyal to a company that after 2 decades of service will give you a pension and take care of ya? That's been dead for a while. Most of us are in a position where we gotta make others money to get ours. But don't stay there if you don't want to be there. We gotta secure our own futures.

You have a very idealistic view of how this works, my team got a layoff while being in the top 10 of sales for the whole company.  So what's the point of busting my ass for nothing?

How much you made though? Not dismissing your layoff. That does suck. But did you get yours though?

You wont even talk to a woman you’re not with or related to. How the fuck do you expect us to believe you’d be making racks on commission. 😂

Why do you open your mouth to go full stupid? Show me where I said I won't talk to a woman I'm not related to or with. It's amazing how someone says something clear as day. ( I'm not trying to hear boyfriend issues from a woman I'm not related to ) And you go and literally hear what you want. The hell is wrong with you?

Imagine you in the drive thru at a restaurant. God what a frustrating experience for a customer that'd be.

Yeah, but these days no matter how hard you work the actual money usually doesn't show up until you jump ship to another company.  Especially with how tight the labor market is, but even before that.

 

Which just makes it doubly fucked up that our solution to inflation is "jack up interest rates to increase unemployment" instead of "fairly tax the richest companies".

Oh yeah I learned that. Job hoping resulted in me getting raises. Not sticking it out for years. That's back in the days of our grandparents. And unfortunately there's so many actual legal ways for the rich and their budinesses to avoid paying taxes. It's stupid. Let alone all the off the book methods.

If they can't pay me at least minimum wage then they can shove their fucking job.  Stop simping for billion dollar companies.

Don't get it twisted. I have no love for big corporations. But if you got the chops? Commission based pay blows hourly pay out the water. You can't low ball me. If I'm Killin it? I'm Killin it. I get a portion of that sale. Not an hourly rate. There is the risk of your pay isn't guaranteed for showing up and trying. You have to produce. But if you can? You make bank. Assuming you have a good employer.

"I've worked at places that had layoffs after their most successful year ever. If companies want me to work hard they need to fork over the dough. Working hard gets you jack shit at most companies"

Working hard for a low hourly rate is lame yes. Working hard for a direct piece of the pie every time you make a sale, land a client etc? That's different

Fair enough to each their own. At least you ain't making up some lame excuse about not wanting to put money in the corporate overlord's pocket

I want a salary + commission.  I'm not working for free because its the slow part of the year. 

That's why you have something going on the side. Those who I've known in commission based work? When it's time to make money? They go hard and either put money to the side to weather the slow season and or hold a part time job hourly job.

Once they get to a point they are Killin it in their commission job? They focus on it full time. And make enough to where it's nothing to put money away for the slow season.

If I was 20 again? I definitely would've gotten into real estate as an agent. Or hell no reason I can't do it now

Full commission jobs are bullshit jobs were they can make you work your ass off for minimum wage.  He was right to tell them to shove that job.

Depends. Some are definitely some bullshit. But jobs in a legit commission based sales position? Those people make bank if they git gud at it. 

Jobs that offer commission and hourly wage together are usually bullshit. Because those jobs. Tend to rarely have opportunities to actually earn commission

"I can't handle a job where I actually have to get shit done to get paid. Instead of being able to do light work and just take up space for 8hrs. And get paid"

You ain't fooling nobody with all that "screw u greedy corporate fat cats!" talk.

That was A&W back when they had restaurants. 

The root beer soda brand?

What was that burger chain. That tried to compete with Mc Donald's quarter pounder. By introducing a 1/3 pound burger near the same price. But us dumbass Americans thought 1/3 was less than 1/4. Thus a rip off. So it flopped?

World richest billionaires are mostly idiots, look at Jeff Bozos and Elon Musk. 
They aren't exactly Lex Luthor levels of intellect. 

Ok invest in social intelligence? Because being a genius when it comes to things or making money. Doesn't mean you know people. That is true

Gotta also invest in the intelligence stat. So that they knows if money is how he gets her? She ain't his. It's just his turn. Act accordingly.

I’m being a basic instagram bitch and posting my pizza I made 

 

 

Looks like a pizza pie ate another pizza. Then took a dump on a plate

So went out to grab some food. And I get approached by an older sista with two kids. I wanna say they're her grandkids. Kids clothes look pretty worn and she looking kinda rough too. She introduces herself and just flat out puts her pride to the side and asks for help paying for her extended stay for the week.

She said she'll pay me back however she can but don't want to do anything nasty. I'm kinda taken back. Like damn. Went and got her the remaining money she needed. She was shocked that I actually came back. And nearly in tears. 

Told her she don't gotta pay me back. Just make sure the kids have a roof and eat. That humbled the fuck outta me. It really is hard out here. Getting your own and maintaining is not easy. If you have an income,  decent roof, food, clothes, some entertainment and people that care about ya? Just appreciate it.

Edit: I've done a lot of walmart grocery deliveries. And some where big orders to motels. I heard of motel families. But to actually see people order large amounts of groceries. Kids playing in motel parking lots, and people cooking for whole families in there. Mind blowing.
