The spices at the grocery store I've been going to for the past 25 years has had the spices alphabetized this entire time.

Edit, I misread the question but I'm not fixing my response

I grew up as the "IT guy" in small town America.

This guy, and the people here (not you) sound like a lot of people I know. I'd look for a different job and grow your passion somewhere else. It isn't worth it. You won't change them, and they're just going to make you feel like you're wrong, even though you're right. It's like the movie Idiocracy.

One of my coworkers carries a flipper zero around and opens up every single Tesla gas door we see. He hasn't tried it on the cybertruck yet, the ones I see are usually on the move.

I am getting so irritated with AI everywhere. It doesn't even work right. It just seems so lazy

Man, I saw one 2 weeks ago up close.

Its such a fingerprint magnet, it's not even funny. The owner was using it just like a normal pickup and normal things you do with pickups were causing serious wear and tear that should take years. The buttons for the bed cover feel cheap and like they're going to break. There's no way they'll stand up to California sun. The front quarter panel corner is SHARP. There are lots of sharp corners that are very capable of causing harm.

I always look at everything with a "how could I fix this if it breaks" mind, and the cybertruck just drives me nuts. It'd be impossible to fix

I know you're a stranger, but I get the keys to the apartment in about an hour!!!

I want to tell everyone, but I have nobody to tell. I'm FINALLY going to have a home to go home to.

I'm doing it!

The crysis center already has an apartment for me. They're going to pay first months rent and deposit, I can even have my cats with me!

Since I left my wife, I've been saving sooooo much money. I know how to cook on a budget, the kids aren't picky, and I'm not wasting my money on door dash!

It's gonna be a tough journey, but I can do this!

No, in Idiocracy, the president ended up listening to the smart guy.

I think I'm on my way to happiness.

I finally left my abusive wife this week. It was really scary, and she keeps sending me threats (to take me for child support and ruin my life) but I was able to get ahold if a crisis center for abused people, thankfully they have support for men. The crisis center is going to help me tackle all the debt she's put me in and get me into an apartment that will have room for me and my kids!

Yesterday for the first time in 14 years, I was completely free. I just drove around town. I went and got an ice cream cone, and I got a Mexican Pizza from taco bell, and nobody insulted me, put me down, or made me feel worthless. I got a glimpse of me and I really miss that guy. I used to have the nick name smiley because I always walked around with a shit eating grin on my face because I love life and I love my job, but she's worn away at me lately.

I might be homeless technically, but I have a safe space until I can get on my feet. I get my kids tonight, we're going to have a pizza party and play Mario Kart together. I think everything is going to be fine soon...
