  • Y'know what, you're right. I'm an unhinged psychopath ready to snap. You can tell by the way I um ahh.. typed out a few sentences to say I found something annoying.

    Woah hey, your comment is complaining about my post. Please take it down a few notches, or something.

  • It's really funny to me that my being frustrated by people's trained laziness is a "massive overreaction". Literally nobody has been effected by any of these events (the cart returner or my post), and I've largely forgotten about it, but everyone seems to think I'm tracking this person down to beat them with a garden hose.

    This is a community where we go to bitch about small things we find irritating. If you don't want to see people complain about mundane things, why are we here?

  • If you've truly got no choice in how you manage your time, what does it matter if you should study when sleep deprived? Just sit back and let life make your decisions for you.

    Or, work on your time management and work/ life balance so you aren't forced to do things when exhausted.

  • It isn't so much that they did something "wrong". I don't even really blame the person themself. I find it more frustrating that many of us have grown so used to just leaving our problems for others to take care of, that we automatically walk 40ft to leave something where someone else will have to walk it 60ft, instead of walking the 20ft ourselves.

  • That was the other assumption I was going to put but didn't have time to write it appropriately.

    In more "traditional" households, the man would go to work while the woman would take care of the home. When the wife got sick, the husband typically couldn't/ wouldn't stay home to take care of her, so she'd have to take care of herself (and usually still take care of the home too). But when the husband would get sick, he'd stay home from work, and essentially add themselves to the list of things their wife needs to take care of.

  • My assumption has always been that women's bodies have built-in functionality that put them through varying degrees of discomfort from time to time (periods, pregnancy, menopause), whereas men's bodies generally only aren't at 100% when we're sick. So, when women get sick, it's more of a, "aw man, I feel crappy again, that sucks", but when men get sick, it's like, "oh no, why do I feel like this, what's happening to me?!"

  • This has happened to me on my home Linux server.

    You have directory xyz.

    You set up share access for directory xyz.

    You change directory xyz to abc.

    Share access is still set up for directory xyz. Need to set up access for abc.

  • I get that you guys are spelling things out for OP so they have an understanding of what their argument's foundation is, but going into the conversation with language like "it was not enumerated" and vague threats of reporting them to the authorities is probably not the best approach if OP actually wants to keep the job (which it sounds like they do).

  • But the first time the loop starts, how would I ever know to edit the file?

    If the brain HUD thing is new, and I suddenly am able to edit a file, I might use it for random stuff. Once the loop happens, I would have a text file with whatever random things I put in there during the previous week, with zero context.

    I might be able to determine that it's my own writing, depending on the language used.

    If I'm able to tell that it was things pertaining to my upcoming week, I might conclude some kind of time fuckery; if I knew it was my own writing, but couldn't figure out the context of when I wrote it, I might assume I've lost my mind.

    If the former happens, that's when I'd probably start testing; whatever day I "discovered" the file would be the reset day, I would try leaving a note to myself about the time loop and indicate the date just before that day (in the example given, Sunday before the second loop).

    Once I wake up on a reset day with a text file giving me the last date before the reset and a message explaining what happens, I would know about the loop, and roughly how long I have until it happens again.

  • I'm a little confused by the premise.

    If my memory is completely wiped every loop, how would I even know about editing this "file", or have any purpose of doing so? The only way it'd work is if I'm given the information before the loop begins (so I always have the info, even after wipes), or at the beginning of every loop, both of which defeat the purpose of "you're in a time loop" messages.

    What am I trying to accomplish, getting out of the loop?
