It still kind of works in some industries. I got my last 3 jobs, and 2 of them “weren’t hiring”, by walking into the joint and asking to talk to the boss and saying I can start in 2 weeks I juat have to give my current biss notice. In demanding industries, showing up in person makes an impression, another app on a stack of applications gets you nowhere. Lots of people apply, few can talk the talk and walk the walk or actually do the work. I the auto industry you show up and impress the foreman or manager with your knowledge and your pretty much in. I know people that work in welding and a construction that this also works for. I also have siblings that are white collar that this absolutely does nothing for. Supposeit also depends on how much of a giant corp you work for, as I never work for monolithic corporations. If I can’t meet my boss I can’t work there.

Can confirm. Left a chx calzone I’m my trunk overnight. Slept in the car really fucked up. Woke up hungry and ate the night old chicken. I spent a lot of time on the toilet that day… Surprisingly few people seem to be aware of the “danger zone” of food, after 2 hours out even rice will grow harmful bacteria and such. Better safe than sorry if u don’t know if it can sit out, don’t let it sit out. Your gut will thank you later!

Not enough people winning Darwin awards anymore LOL

I was born in 97, also expected to just “memorize” the tables. I never did, and despite my teacher in 3rd grade insisting we would never have a calculator on us at all times, I do in fact have a calculator (phone) in my pockets at all time to do menial math for me.
