Yeah, to that last one about inmates giving legal advice. I once had a family member go to prison and when he got out he excitedly went on and on about all sorts of neat legal tricks his fellow inmates taught him about making dummy corporations and such to make and hide money. He very quickly deflated when I pointed out that he probably shouldn't be taking that sort of advice from the people who were incarcerated because their master plans got them all caught and imprisoned.

I've had a similar thing happen but different. My dad has a bad reaction to a certain anti-nasusea medication (he stops breathing when he falls asleep) All the doctors and nurses didn't believe it saying "that doesn't happen with this medication" They keep giving it to him despite my mother saying not to give it to him. Cue 3 days of icu care later and finally after over a dozen times of him only stopping breathing AFTER they give him the medication the nurse says "we have never seen this happen with this medication before" They finally stopped giving him the medication and he recovered and got to go home. It wasn't a case of "give him this he'll get better" it was "DONT GIVE HIM THAT HE'LL STOP BREATHING WHEN HE FALLS ASLEEP!" and the medical professionals didn't believe it because it wasn't on the list of side effects. Fucking retard doctors didn't get the fucking point until my dad almost died over a dozen times while in their care. Cue next time when it was in his medical records to not give him said medication because of the respiratory issues.... Guess what they did. Mess with my family and ( REDACTED REDACTED REDACTED REDACTED REDACTED REDACTED REDACTED REDACTED REDACTED REDACTED REDACTED REDACTED )

The amount of people who think they know everything there is to know about how art, be that traditional or digital, is up there with people who believe they more about medicine than those who spent years studying it. The best way I explain to these individuals is asking if they just press the pen to the paper and it magically writes what they want. They do attempt to argue that it's not the same but when I pull up the digital art program I use and ask them to do what I do and they can't, they shut up and leave.

There are two exchanges in our area - 676 and 679. I got several calls in a row from an elderly gentleman wanting to speak to his daughter. I kept telling him he had to wrong number, and he was getting more and more angry. Finally, I called my own number, but used the other exchange. Lo, and behold! there was his daughter. I explained the situation and she said she'd take care of it.

@@JamesDavy2009 I once tried calling a friend in another city. I kept getting the wrong guy, verifying the number was correct on the display, repeat. Finally asked the guy what his number was, which was one digit one point lower than the number I wanted (and which was still correct). Shortly thereafter, I actually reached the right number (still with just redialling the same number). Turns out that the city still had a mechanical exchange (still common at the time), and one rotary stroke selector was somewhat sticky and often lost one step. A short while later I happened to talk to someone working there who told me he actually looked at the thing and that is exactly what happened. So in that case, I _did_ have the correct number even though I kept reaching the wrong guy.

Worked on mobile homes for over a decade. Guy wanted to lift his house for a fix, the person who he wanted to help him approached me for a second opinion because he felt something was off so to help a friend out and to prevent possible damage i decided to do a quick inspection to see what was going on. Tried to tell them what they were doing was a bad idea due to lag-bolts holding the two halves together and if they did the original plan they will do alot of damage to the house. Apparently i looked to young to know what i was talking about.😂

I’ve worked at a grocery store 14 years. One thing we do is sell alcohol and tobacco to the public which means we have to ID people to determine if we can sell them one or both of those controlled substances or not. Lots of reasons can disqualify you from being able to buy,one being one person in your group is under age or doesn’t have the ID on them. It doesn’t matter that the beer or cigarettes are for you and not for them, I’m not taking your word for it. Sale denied. People believe they discovered a loophole would when stated allowed would just nullify the ID and age laws and force me to sell to whoever is looking to buy when it is stated out loud. This loophole being, “would you ID a mother infant or her young child and deny the sale if a newborn didn’t produce an ID stating they are 21!?” The smug look on their face when they think they caught me in a perfect “ah-ha! Gotcha moment now you have to sell to whoever is looking to buy because I and I alone thought up this work around (actually isn’t a work should) is baffling. They really believe they caught me dead to right. My answer, “if the parent makes it completely obvious that their beer or wine or pack of smokes or can of chew is meant for their baby or toddler, or underage child. I don’t need anyone producing any kind of ID adult or baby. Sale denied.” They get all huffy and puffy seeing that their “totally original” loophole to the law was so easily derailed. Had one person reply to my denying the sale of alcohol to a group of women because one woman in their group didn’t have her ID on her and it didn’t matter that “she was just a neighbor she gave a ride to” the woman looking to buy alcohol told me. It doesn’t matter, she’s apart of your group, she has no ID, you don’t get alcohol. Also, people can say anything to try to not show their ID when it takes literal seconds to produce and show. The person said, “it’s not your job to deny sales of alcohol but to actually sell to whoever is looking to buy as long as they have the money to cover the cost. It doesn’t matter how old or young or whatever they are. That is actually the job of the police to work out not you, but because you decided to play Officer Dip Shit, you lost out on a sale your bosses will be very angry about.” This person clearly believed every store that sold controlled substances has their own privet police force or can just call an officer (they have nothing better to do), or just have 1 police officer for every check stand being used and self scan robot to pull people aside who just bought said substances to make sure they are of age, their ID isn’t expired, they have their ID, was a legally recognized and accepted form of ID, and aren’t buying for their 3 month old. I quickly corrected them and said, “there aren’t enough police officers in any given town (forget city) that can dedicate their entire shift to hanging around at the end of every check stand when someone is looking to buy alcohol or tobacco. Because there isn’t, the power to deny a sale, to check IDs is give to the people selling it with the store’s owners, the managers, and the law backing them so they can do so. Imagine police officers at least 20being held up in one store alone having to delay going and investigating murders, rushing off to save people and children all because this woman wants to buy a pack of smokes and the guy after her wants to buy a bottle of wine.” I closed off by saying, “you’ve never actually worked in a store that sold controlled substances have you?” They said nothing after that.

Try an ISO9001 audit! I wrote most of the test procedures that I used at Microdyne, but I troubleshot boards that needed it, as I tested them so it was rae to not have additional steps that were impossible to add to an ISO document. I flt out told management that if I was selected for an audit that I would hand the paperwork to the UL auditor and tell him to show me that he understood my job well enough to audit me. I also tested prototypes for Engineering that had no released paperwork because my results would become part of the paperwork. I was never selected!

I was a biology major, and though I don’t work in science or medicine now, I have taught science classes for a homeschool group as a volunteer because they asked me to and it was fun for me. My friend from the group called me about a year ago in a panic because her MIL, who is a career ER nurse, was accusing her of cheating. My friend has type O+ blood and her husband has type AB+ blood. Their son has type B- blood. The MIL was insisting that my friend cheated because “the child ALWAYS has either the mother’s or father’s blood type.” No, they don’t. This isn’t even college stuff, most people learn it in high school. Each parent has two alleles, but only gives one to the child. In this case, the father can only give an A or B allele (not both) and my friend can only give an O. Their children will always have type A or B blood, but never type AB or type O. In fact, it’s impossible for my friend to have a child with type AB blood, and if she had a child with type O, then she for sure cheated. As for Rh factor, it is possible to have two positive parents with a negative child if they each carry and passed on a recessive negative allele. I went to a family meeting with my friend and showed the MIL some basic punnet squares to illustrate, but the MIL told me I was lying to cover for my friend, and she knows better because she’s been an ER nurse for 35 years and knows more about blood than any of us. The husband believed me (he never actually doubted in the first place, good dude) but they ultimately decided to do a paternity test just to shut his mom up. The child is, in fact, his. They’re low-contact with the MIL now.

Also in regards to hotels, unless it’s independent, the hotels are mainly chains (IHG for mainly Holiday Inn, Candlewood and Avid; Bonvoy for Marriott, Residence and Fairfield; Choice for Comfort, Sleep Inn, Quality Inn; Wyndham for Days Inn, La Quinta. Again, examples). Each hotel under each brand has certain set standards that they have to follow, with a little leeway depending on the situation in that area. Not all hotels will have jacuzzis in their rooms, not all hotels will have a full breakfast, not all hotels have a 24:7 housekeeping service. Also, prices vary depending on the time of your, activities, availability, and other situations. Just because you spent $75 on a room in February doesn’t mean that price is anywhere close to an option in June. Where I work at, currently the weekday (Sunday through Thursday) is $90 + tax. The weekend price is more than twice that ($209 + tax) due to availability, sports groups, wedding or tour groups that are coming in, tourism being at its peak, more activities available in the area, etc (there’s even a few places where the price can be over $500 + tax for a night). People will get upset and say “I stayed a few days ago and the price was this”. That’s fine, but due to demand, we can get a lot more for tonight. “We’ll, I’m staying elsewhere or booking online cause it will be cheaper.” Not necessarily and especially if that’s my last room left, good luck. I’ve had to send people up to 45+ miles away from my property not only because my county has all the hotels (and motels and B&Bs) sold out, but the next counties neighboring us are sold out as well, and said closest availability is even more expensive.

My first husband tried to boast that he's flown a helicopter. My present husband said, "Oh, thats interesting, whats the start up sequence like?" Ex answered, "Well first you turn the key..." he stopped because my present husband started sniggering. Then he says, "I'm a fully qualified helicopter pilot." My ex did his usual blustering and fake I know everything act. So we wound up our visit and left. Guess what one of my major gripes was in the divorce?
