Would you stop going to a bar you liked if the owner was an asshole and you didn't really know him?
There's a bar I frequent. I like the people that go there and the bartenders are cool.
But I hear to owner is a bit of a prick. One of the bartenders who's a bit confrontational, told me that she approached him about an issue with a customer once and he yelled at her and didn't want to discuss.
What can I do? The only part of the bar I don't like is ownership.
- Pretty much all restaurant / bar owners are dicks to their staffGnash
- you have a problem in the first sentence already: "owner asshole" v. "don't really know him".renderedred

I have a new job since May 1st, and i am working from home since day 1 on that new job. I really love the new job, super cool. And I really love working from home. I also work 4 days a week, 10h a day and i have 3 days off after.
On my last job, that I had for the last 19 years, i was moving a lot, i was never on the computer all day long.
Now, my job is 100% computer and i am at home... so i sit like i never sti in my life. I have pain from being sittted for too long...
Whats your thoughts?

- Better chair.monospaced
- Standing deskGnash
- can you get a dog? :) mine has to walk 4-5 times a day and guarantees me to be off my ass moving at least an hour a day even if I'm buried in workPonyBoy
- I ran for the first time yesterday, will run tomorrow again. 1 hour bike run 2 times a week... I will try to take a walk more often on top of thatBennn
- I just bought a news desk a year ago, so the standing desk is not an option now.. but i admit i would like to stand while working sometimesBennn
- I installed an app on my phone that reminds me to move my ass every 40min. But sometimes I have too much job and skip itBennn
- First World problems!Bennn
- a better chair is definitaly a good point! I have a 150$ Ikea chairBennn
- https://www.ergotron… - this... convert your desk in to a standing one (and back to sitting of course)Static_Line
- ironing board = standup desk. iron clothes while working for exercisesausages
- Play badminton********
- Standing desk, with space to rest arms, those minimal tables with your hands leaning on the edge... Ouch!!OBBTKN
- And a big meh to confy chairs, mine is a wooden tall chair I bought in Ikea, a total shit to be sit in for 12 hours; That way it remembers you to go to stretch!OBBTKN
- +1, fuck those horrible comfy chairs********
- Bennn - sits like no otherstoplying
- Have your doctor write you a note that says you need a sit stand desk. Ask your company to pay for one.********

What are you doing outside of prison that you're not able to do in prison?
You can play flag football or join a book club. Learn a craft or trade. Tend a garden and grow your own food. No bills, no planning, no disappointments. Just do what you're told and get ready for movie night.
It's like daycare, as long as you avoid gangs and drugs. Want different weather or programs? Put in for a prison transfer.

I just called my internet/cellphone service provider and told them that my monthly bill was too high to my taste. After a 43min talk, they gave me a 27$/m credit for the next two years... in the end that will save me 650$
I do this all the time. I dont know if its doable where you live, but my advice would be DO IT! Go now and call them.
- We pay around $10 for unlimited broadband and TV, $4-5 for mobile. If you complain or switch providers, they just offer you big deals for latest smartphonesgrafician
- I'm at home all day every day so I switched to T-Mobile's $15 plan because I hardly use my phone out of the house. It's great.********
- Well, it sucks, but the phone plan savings are great.********

Does anyone have any recommendations for either an online website or software app that could create these types of graphic patterns?
Thanks!
- Maybe Processing?
But these look animated in Ae.grafician - Whoever did these, they getting the big moneys from Nike for sure.grafician
- Actionscript?OBBTKN
- In AE pretty sure you can manipulate points with scripts/null etc then draw shapes from them. #2 and 3 doable with masks, keys and a bit of work. You go first.MrT
- my first thought would be cinema4dautoflavour

Procrastinated on a brand manual for 5 days...
Wake up early, did it in under 5 hours.
- https://thumbs.gfyca…Bluejam
- Wasted 4 hours just moving elements around trying to fit everything, made it pretty and final in the last hour.grafician
- And on top of all this, the client emailed me asking about it 10 mins before I was finishing up. I hit send just in time, free day now.grafician
- Swear the older you get design is just moving things around, trying to make them fit together, it's just like a puzzle to solve and you getting paid for it.grafician

Dreamed of the future last night. Economically prosperous, people united and kind. No borders or war.
Government and money become transparent necessities that are so super efficient that they become afterthoughts.
Politicians seen as essential workers with little glorification.
Borders become checkpoint population counters with little to zero resistance.
Things just.... flow.
A lot of robots doing the little things humans are too lazy to do.

Quick update:
I bought a new office chair.
My A/C still broken 'till friday, we're still in a middle of an heat wave and it's around 29-30C (85-86F) in the house.
See you later.

- i may try thisBennn
- Worked for them********
- Start looking at apartments outside the slum you obviously live in. :) no a/c unit takes a week to fix. A couple hours at most of a guy is on lunch break.monospaced
- You deserve double pane windows for sound isolation and temperature insulation. You deserve insulated walls too.monospaced
- @mono the company was waiting for a piece to arrive before repairing my a/c, the piece has arrived, they'll come Friday :)Bennn
- My walls have good insulation too, the windows would be a bit better, its when they're open the problemBennn
- I would maybe move from here, but i live close to my work and like having under 35min communting time.Bennn
- Also, the price of the houses is getting insane... We would have to move far from the city to have decent pricesBennn
- :D best of luck dudemonospaced
