My SO and I recently found out that Walmart (I see the Great Value brand) has actually become one of the more expensive places to buy goods from. We’ve done comparisons from Trader Joe’s, Fry’s, and Safeway. We’ve found that Walmart is the least value. Take what you will.
Take every opportunity you can to learn and grow but don’t over exert yourself. Everything you learn can be used at a different company. Never know where your learned knowledge can take you.
Don’t be afraid to ask questions. If you don’t know something, it’s better to ask and do it right the first time than fuck it up and have to waste more time. If they get mad for you asking, bail. People who can’t accept questions are people who can’t lead.
Do your job to the best of your abilities but don’t be loyal as they won’t be loyal to you when things are looking down.
If they offer any sort of benefits; PTO, College Funding, Health Care, etc; take advantage of everything that makes sense to you. Don’t let ANYONE make you feel guilty for using it. The company is going to use you. Use them right back.
Leave work shit at work and home shit at home, whenever possible. Be chummy with your coworkers but don’t mistake them for friends. “We’re like a family” is bullshit. The company will throw you to the curb if needed.
It’s brual. If you don’t have AC in your house/mode of transportation, you can literally die of heat stroke in a few hours.
A fire fighter trainee literally died in Tucson recently from heat stroke. It’s bad y’all. Stay away if you can.
Winter is decent though since it’s like 50 - 70 lol
Going off what fishpen0 said, Waymo actually has sensors on it to detect things and can “understand” its surroundings much better than Tesla cars can wish just cameras.
I’ve ridden in Waymos and they are smooth riding. After the initial “OMG! There’s no driver!” You kind of forget about it. You get to your (limited area) destination safely and without much hassle.
I can go more in depth if ya want.
Wallet makes sense in the back pocket. It’s been kind of the default for generations so much it’s a comedic point in TV Shows and movies at times. They’re generally malleable and an easy place to grab, for better or worse.
Phone on the other hand, I don’t get either. They’re rigid and can break quite easily if sat on. 🤷♂️
Matthew 6:5-6 “And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.”
It’s the foundation of his argument that Christians shouldn’t impose religion upon others but should lead by example.
