just accepted the job offer of my dreams. It was great, paid $38/hr full benefits! The work is a combination of physical and technical, and the cherry on the top was it was good MORAL work. I would have been working with private landowners to plant trees on their property, giving them timber harvesting power in the future plus fortifying the American timber trade instead of outsourcing for wood. Not to mention improving the local environment.
The thing is I'd be working with a non-profit and my position is funded by federal grants.
My job acceptance almost feel through with one executive order but I got lucky until Elon fricking MUSK commandeered the treasury payment system so there are effectively no resources to hire me. He took my job.
It's fricking heartbreaking. In 2 years I could have paid off my student loans and had a down payment for a house if I had saved like mad. Now I'm stuck making $20,000 a year living paycheck to paycheck. And I don't think anybody understands what an opportunity like this is for some poor kid who grew up in a rotten trailer in Appalachia to have had. Frick.

The USAid programs were weaponized against people and politicians who weren’t woke.

The Biden team spent US taxpayer money to support left wing programs and candidates around the world.
Conservatives around the world were targeted.
Romania is the latest example.… https://t.co/cmPqYojRzs
Will we ever get our elections back? Or at least hold new ones? Nobody knows Bur EU is determined to follow our steps for some reason

Amazing thread attempting to create a narrative with 40k upmarseys and just 900 comments, so you know it's legit.
Comments are mostly as expected: Yeah, but Amazon is cheaper, ships faster, and has ez returns.
Note: Amazon doesn't make much on it's retail ops anymore, so they probably dgaf if people shop there or not.
Notable zero-pointers
2 weeks later no package arrives, no answer from support, regret not using reliable Beszos
Amazon is Amazon for a reason
Yeah but usually there products are marked up 25% compared to the Amazon listing so bezos gets my money🤷.
Nah I usually want the shit I ordered faster than 1-3 business months
The Pivot attempt and rebuttal
The main difference is Amazon offers free shipping and free hassle free returns. Other retailers charge you to return products you order from them and usually charge you shipping to get them
fyi hassle free returns = products go directly in the garbage (cheaper than sorting through the products) and Amazon bakes the cost into higher prices for everyone due to the high volume of returned items
FYI the exact same thing happens when you return it to the manufacturer.
The only difference is that it's substantially easier to return a product to Amazon vs most manufacturers.
