Yup, this is the reason.

are you upset about the phrase "yuck my yum" or them trashing your food, period? I mean both are mildly infuriating to me but I'm curious

edit: added much-needed comma.

Also, I've only ever heard this in the context of food (hence the "yum") but I see it's also used for other things? Which is awful, because "yum" should absolutely never refer to anything other than food

I hate how awful yet ubiquitous it is. Depending on your demographic, not having it can mean you miss out on a lot of pop culture and sort of get left behind.

I'm probably in the like 2nd most targeted demographic, so all my friends are on TT and all the trending things related to our hobbies are on there. I constantly feel left out because I'm missing 99% of the content. And it's hard because I want to have dumb conversations about pop culture and hobbies with my friends, but I refuse to download it. It makes me so sad. It's very isolating

the cognitive dissonance of

: I wholeheartedly support unions, strikes, and workers' rights

: Where the fuck is my package

If I get bored, I drop it. Maybe I miss out on some gems that 'get good after the 7th chapter' or whatever, but I'm not fussed

Could be the first chapter, ¾ through the book, halfway through a series... If I'm bored I'm out lol

I'm a millennial-ish. I had a single mom and she was all-in on parenting. Although I'm not sure which part(s) of parenting you're asking about specifically. Discipline? Instilling values?

I'm not great with math so please let me know if I'm understanding this right:

  1. Company has 100 employees
  2. All 100 employees quit
  3. Company gets 100 new employees as replacement

= 100% turnover rate

Then...

  1. Company has the 100 new employees
  2. 50 of the new employees quit
  3. Company gets 50 new employees as replacement

= 150% turnover rate

and so on?

[–] sputtersalt 6 points 2 years ago (4 children)

how can you have a turnover rate over 100%?

One time I shared an Airbnb to try to cut costs on a trip. I got there around 4pm and hated it so much that by noon the next day I had already booked a hotel.

I just do king suites now since they're about the same price as a double but include free breakfast, a kitchenette, extra pullout couch, etc. Cheaper than an Airbnb with the same (or more) amenities.
