  • A local ‘the end is high’ sign man had changed his tune as soon the election result hit. He had handwritten signs spelling out the doom America is headed towards and how the healthcare system (Obama care) has fucked him over covering every panel of his '90s chevy. After Nov. it’s all good, no doom here we are headed in to a new golden era or whatever. About a week later someone took all of his new signs. Haven’t seen him since but his tape stained truck is still sitting there. I hope he took the opportunity to move on but after talking to him briefly in the summer that probably will never be the case.

    When it’s wrapped in plastic it can be individually picked. In a warehouse large quantities of stuff is stored away in bulk, sometimes palletized. A picker goes around and picks out the items from the larger bulk of items to put together a shipping order. If they were individually wrapped, whether by the warehouse or their distributor, it is for general protection(so that it feels new) and ease of handling.

    Source: worked many of the lower positions at different warehouses for some years.




  • This is probably not the answer you are looking for but I have found I am very focused when it is “other peoples time”. When I have free time I struggle to do anything productive or otherwise because there is everything I need to do in that amount of free time. If I am late, procrastinating, or absent from something like work or school I get so much more done because then I feel compelled to do “that one last thing” before I go. I’ve cleaned my whole house because I was waiting for the right time to walk to the bus stop. The problem with this is that people tend to dislike flakyness or inconsistency when they expect you to show up on time. 🤷
