Can't he just delay its return to the ground?Daehawk wrote: ↑Wed May 23, 2018 6:30 pm I was talking to my friend about him getting some rain barrels and collecting rainwater for his garden. Come to find out its illegal in his county to collect rainwater. How nuts is that?? He said he should charge the county a fee for all the rainwater they get from his land.
From .. Rain water harvesting and ...
.As of March 22, 2014; after hours of ongoing research for the past year, I have checked all 50 state government websites and found that, with the exception of Colorado and Nevada, there is currently no state government law in the U.S. that considers rainwater harvesting by individuals (home owners) in a direct manor and bluntly, “against the law” for anyone and everyone and furthermore, “government” is not becoming “more restrictive with rain water harvesting”
note: 2 years later, he mentions Colorado being legal
Update August 8, 2013 Regarding Tennessee: ... I have found absolutely nothing on the Tennessee gov’t website to indicate that rain barrels or rain water harvesting by individuals is against the law. Above 50,000 gallons per day is mentioned as the lower limit at which any amount above requires a permit. This is in regards to ground water. Surface water is covered in another regulation but, the regulation does not mention rain water, or rain barrels. 50,000 gallons a day is wwwwaaaaaaayyyyyy more than anyone will ever collect in a rain barrel or even 100 rain barrels in 1 day. Read the info at the links provided above, and search the Tennessee gov’t website. If anyone finds “regulations” or “Tennessee water laws” making rain barrels or rain water harvesting below 50,000 gallons per day illegal, please post the link here. Rainwater harvesting and rain barrels are, in fact, encouraged in the city of Knoxville in conjunction with the University of Tennessee.
1/4 cup for what volume of steak fries? A 1/4 cup is like monkey dish sized and I had a basket of steak fries, a monkey dish of fri flavoring lubricant is nothing. Be that ranch, ketchup, mustard, mayo, au jous, gravy, cheese and sour cream, you name it. Nothing! NOTHING!!!!
Ketchup is 25% Sugar
Grapes aren't veggies either. So then you broke me and I had to check. The best page one google search on corn I could find in 20 seconds or less:
No, it is a grain.

Unless you paid for Priority Express, it was not "promised." Priority Mail delivery dates are estimates. They're accurate about 75% of the time, in my experience as someone who's shipped about 14,000 packages. Of course nobody knows that so the shipper gets the grief when USPS is "late." I've heard "I paid for 2-day shipping" thousands of times. No you didn't. You paid for priority mail shipping. And by "priority", USPS means "ordinary."Kasey Chang wrote: ↑Thu May 24, 2018 8:00 pm USPS tracking info website died sometime this afternoon. Getting an AK-1213 error.
Coincidentally, a USPS shipment that was promised YESTERDAY to arrive did NOT arrive, nor did it arrive today. And I can't track it either.
I feel your pain. It took me years to internalize that every employee has their own relationship with their employer and their relationship is none of my business unless deceptions causes a problem with my ability properly be the cog I was hired to be. There are tons and tons and tons of inequality around my office. I get the same paycheck. Whether person A spends 20 hours a week dealing with family problems or not. If her dealing with family problems causes me to not fulfill a promise, details to the best of my official capacity go into the email. If she puts in nearly a 1000 hours a year less to do worse work for more money. Well, that's here arrangement. Her arrangement is not on my check. It probably took me five years of tempest in teapot to really internalize that apathy.Vorret wrote: ↑Fri May 25, 2018 1:19 pm I need to vent.
I'm not often angry but this is pissing me off. A co-worker who's always late (like between 15-45 minutes daily) asked to have his lunch hour cut by 30 minutes so he can recoup the hours since he's late in the morning.
It was approved for some unknown reasons.
He never works on his lunch break, takes the fullll hour to either talk about games or watch video about games. What pisses me off the most is that he works less hours than me overall but is paid MORE since he gets a "free" 2 hours and 30 minutes added every week.
I'm seriously fucking pissed and I'm not sure if I should snitch (I don't like stitches). I already disliked that person but now I'm verging on hate and it's seriously making me hate my job right now.
Vent over.
Oh, yeah, this is why I will only order from 3rd party vendors that utilize Prime shipping.
I would make sure that I, too, took a full hour for lunch every day. It's not so much that he's getting away with something as that you're working through lunch and then resenting him for not doing the same.Vorret wrote: ↑Fri May 25, 2018 1:19 pm I need to vent.

I used to be this way. It just fed the anger at things I have no control over. In that sort of instance I would feel the spite in the extra time took off instead of enjoying it, essentially just punishing myself and then I'd feel angry at rushing myself for the time I lost taking the extra lunch time...Kraken wrote: ↑Fri May 25, 2018 2:11 pm

Chronic lateness is a separate issue between him and his boss, and it sounds like they worked that out.

Sadly, that's what government does best; confiscates your rights, only to sell them back to you.Daehawk wrote: ↑Wed May 23, 2018 6:30 pm I was talking to my friend about him getting some rain barrels and collecting rainwater for his garden.

Really depends on when Amazon drops them off at the station. If they get them there early enough for the clerks to sort them out to the routes (say, by 9am, or 930, depending on station management), they go out that day. If Amazon shows up, say 10, we are already out on the street. As I have mentioned before, none of our shipping partners want usps to look good.Blackhawk wrote: ↑Fri May 25, 2018 11:16 am More and more often I see companies (including Amazon) using the USPS intermediary services. I despise them. The usual timeline is:
Day 1: Package is marked as shipped. Tracking number is given. USPS says, "Waiting for package."
Day 2: USPS still waiting for package. I dig deeper and find they used an intermediary.
Day 7 through Day 11 - somewhere in there, a week or more after it was shipped, the intermediary hands the package to the USPS.
Two days later the package is delivered.
These services turn two day shipping into two week shipping with no tracking. Every time.
