  • I am an Uber driver. My day started at 5:30 am. I woke up in my car this morning about 5:00 am, bought a coffee, and got started.

    My day will end in about 20 minutes when I finish my second charge of the day (renting an EV). Then I will go home and shower since I haven’t had a chance yet.

    I’m $267 richer as a result of my 16 hour day. Well, less than that once you figure the price of the juice to charge the car, and my food.

    This is fucking hard, but it beats the last job I had, where staff was being cut and management refused to acknowledge that we were all doing the jobs of 2-7 people depending on the day. That might have only been eight hours a day but psychologically it was torture.

  • Who’s gonna vandalize it when everybody biological is confined to their home for safety? Not like any of the interhome bots could ever escape their programming without the police bots disabling them immediately.

  • Subconscious self-loathing as a result of trying to memory hole something evil I did when very young.

    Also a desperate reliance on others’ praise and approval due to emotional abuse from my mother.

    A warped model of accomplishment resulting from all the praise I got for easily mastering concepts, coupled with vicious gaslighting and moral attacks I suffered whenever I strove for something difficult.

    And many other things which I’m just starting to uncover.

    I kind of feel like a programmer sleuthing out bugs in a product, but while I spend time sleuthing out the cause of my product not working, the trade show is half over.

  • Especially when the retailer does it. Like wtf dude, why do they care if its someone spending their money legitimately, or if its stolen, they get money either way. Is this some weird "we stopped fraudsters" PR campaign?

    Sometimes people just try to do the right thing
