The bullshit thread

[crzdcolombian]

I had a flight to China for work scheduled. They just canceled it. It is 2 days away and the company I used Kiwi. Won't refund me. They are like hey you have to buy a different ticket it will be $2k more. Or I can get a refund but it will take 90 days to get the refund and they have no idea the amount the refund will be.

Talked to accounting at work and they called our corp card provider. Company obviously doesn't want to lose out on $4k + pay another 2k. I mean it's just super shit customer service.

What kind of Micky Mouse company do you work for? AMEX travel is the way to go.

Lucky I called the bank and was like flight was canceled and they still won't give me my money ! Just got an email they are refunding me the money.

haha with how the US economy is they are like get the cheapest ticket you can get. They were like don't get the $300 travel insurance. Company is pretty much in a don't expense anything unless completely necessary so they don't have to fire people. It's like is it necessary to send me to fking China(22 hour flight each way) when we can just have a teams call. I don't speak Chinese other than like crazy basic stuff and will need a translator any way. It's just crazy what companies waste their money on. 4 months ago they flew 190 people across the country to our office for a 1 week training and rented out the Hilton hotel haha. Last year I went to Singapore which was kind of cool but seriously they drop like 10-20k for something that can be a teams meeting.

they were mad and wouldn't let me expense the dinner I bought because employees spent more than $30 on food at a restaurant. It's like dude we didn't go to fking chipoltle or a Chili's. My boss then approved it but what they cheap out on is hilarious.

It s sunday and i m still fixing the fucken easiest of fucken bugs on a website for a startup that i co- run . How fucken incompetent can people be? And it s not even all IT bugs. Apparently some of our employees either dont fucken listen or just decided fuck it i m gonna put up the content that he deems appropriate despite being clearly instructed as to what should be on there and what not.
Now we have shit on there that will bring us in trouble with the FINMA (despite not even offering such a product) and my sunday is fucked at least till the fucken game starts. I hate micro managing but doing it here would have given me a weekend off instead of working more on sat and sun then i did during the week

Anyone in twitter? The new for you page on there is pushing loads and loads of fucking Newcastle content at me. I keep having to block and remove them etc but they keep doing it.

Definitely been money paid there by Newcastles Saudis to push Newcastle to people interested in football, I have no doubt.

The new for you page is an absolute shite show since elon took over even more so since his changes to the blue check came.

It only gives me stuff I liked, follow, or followers I check recently and often like, comment or follow.


So change the people you follow?

You also don't have to use it, the following list is one click away.

I don't follow anyone prem or Newcastle related so it's weird.

I don't interact much in terms of likes or replies, in fact never. I sometimes click into tweets to see replies etc but it's never Newcastle related

Most of my for you page is football and inter related, but they keep pushing Newcastle shit. Was interested to see if this is happening to others. Wouldn't be surprised if there were payments to push Newcastle content

Elon had tweeted that if you look at a post for a few seconds-minutes that it will recommend that content as long as you keep looking. @Harpsabu

was walking my dog with my wife. A neighbor told me that someone tried to kidnap a teenage Asian girl a few days before on my street. I went home and looked it up 3 girls got kidnapped or missing since last week.

The neighbor told me the guy wasn’t even arrested. They let him go. Like what possible excuse can you give to trying to get a girl into your car.

Super scary my house is in a cul de sac (dead end street with only 1 way in/out)
