The mall never seemed to lose business when it was fully enforced, so I'm not sure why they ended up limiting it to those time frames. --- GT: ShadowElite86 FFBE: 411,656,473 |

The father in-law isn't a huge fan of Disney so we wanted to make sure he enjoyed himself as well. We all enjoyed Universal, spent about 9+ hours there. It's kind of sad that you spend more time in line than on the rides though. The new places we ate at were Bubba Gumps, Ruby's, In/Out Burger, Tonys on the Pier, T-Rex Cafe, Captain Kids, and Zoo Grill. I actually liked Ruby's and Tony's the most, I was kind of disappointed in In/Out. --- GT: ShadowElite86 FFBE: 411,656,473 |

I was in the L.A. area to be exact and it was a nightmare pretty much to get anywhere. Nice place though, I enjoyed the Redondo and Hermosa beach area. The beaches weren't the best but I can't complain too much. Oh and Venice Beach was a little freaky....just saying. --- GT: ShadowElite86 FFBE: 411,656,473 |

I couldn't get into the combat controls at all.

| ShadowElite86 08/16/17 12:41:04 PM #53 | Great topic. Hostess is complete garbage now. You might have enjoyed their products a bit more several years ago. The only thing that you have there that I like are the S'mores Pop-Tarts. That's not to say that they're actually "good"....maybe it's because I've been eating them since I was much younger. Be sure to heat them up and eat with a glass of cold milk. If you liked Sour Patch Kids then I'm curious to what you'd think of Sour Straws. They are one of the few sour candies that I'll eat. --- GT: ShadowElite86 FFBE: 411,656,473 |

She's looking for a different job now due to her current manager. Hopefully she can get a good sense of the person she interviews with to determine whether or not they'd mesh well together. The opportunity would allow her to work from home 100% of the time apparently so that's a plus. Master_Bass posted... ShadowElite86 posted...I have read about this. I guess it's not necessarily a bad thing if it'll help get rid of the bad apples. Yeah that makes sense. I'll pass those links on to her. I believe this job would be a lower GS level from what I recall her saying. She doesn't quite qualify for the next level due to not having a Bachelors degree unfortunately. --- GT: ShadowElite86 FFBE: 411,656,473 |

I guess it's not necessarily a bad thing if it'll help get rid of the bad apples. This is for my wife btw. Her current place of employment is pretty good so she has a lot to lose if she were to go somewhere that ended up being less than desirable. I'm not really sure where Trump lies with the VA, but what would happen if there were budget cuts for that specific department? Aside from the potential layoffs, can they actually cut your pay if that were to happen? --- GT: ShadowElite86 FFBE: 411,656,473 |

| Topic | Cancelled video games you're still sad about |
| ShadowElite86 07/27/17 12:07:00 PM #175 | Prey 2 - I thought Human Heads vision of the game looked pretty great and I enjoyed the first game. I wasn't too happy with the direction that the reboot took. Silent Hills - I was excited that Del Toro was involved with this. This could have really sky rocketed the series in terms of popularity. Star Wars Battlefront 3 - The original SW:BF games were fantastic and it was even more exciting that Free Radical was at the helm of this. Fallout Online - I was less excited about it being an MMO but more excited about it being done by the original creators of Fallout. That alone would've made the game worth at least trying. B.C. - I couldn't help be be somewhat excited for anything Peter Molyneux and Lionhead had planned. B.C. genuinely sounded like a good game with a lot of great ideas. StarCraft: Ghost - I was more excited about the fact that Swingin Ape Studios was developing this. I was eager to play another one of their games after having loved Metal Arms. This was another Duke Nukem Forever situation though and I was curious to see how it would've turned out in the end. --- GT: ShadowElite86 FFBE: 411,656,473 |

| Topic | Retail Workers: What little things do customers do that just annoys you? |
| ShadowElite86 07/25/17 10:48:22 AM #168 | I never had to cashier when I worked at Sears but I did maintain the sales floor and dressing rooms. -My biggest pet peeve would be when I'm in the process of cleaning up a messy table and a customer would come up right next to me and screw up the pile of clothes that I obviously just fixed. The proper etiquette would be to ask me if I noticed a certain size while straightening, which a lot of people would do. -We would sometimes close our registers in the men's department during the week when it wasn't busy. We put up signs in front of both registers informing the customer to check out in the tools department. It never failed that the customer would just stand up at the register waiting for someone to come over and check them out. I know it's a dick move but I would just watch them and see how long they would stay there before figuring out that the register was closed. -Customers knocking on the doors before opening even though there is still 10 minutes left. Customers walking in a minute before we are due to close. Customers still shopping and walking around aimlessly even after the 5th closing announcement. -People who would drive an hour or more because the online site said we had it in stock and then cause a scene when it was actually out of stock when they arrived. If you're driving that far for something then wouldn't you confirm with the store that it's actually in stock and also ask if it could be held? --- GT: ShadowElite86 FFBE: 411,656,473 |
