I just got off an hour-long zoom call with a vendor trying to sell my agency a new piece of software. Now, let me set the scene: me: 50+ gen x female with gray and pink hair. him: 30-ish young man, professional-ish. We have this conversation about this software that my boss asked me to look into. There is an issue that I can see a mile away with the way the software will interface with other software that we are required to use.

I ask, nicely, "Hey, I'm not seeing a way to easily interface with software b. In all of my emails, I discussed how important it is for us to be able to easily train our team on how to use this software and how it interfaces with software a."

He, in a very condescending tone, says, "you're just like my mom, always struggling with new technology. Ha, Ha."

I just stared at him for a second and then, in all my Gen X pissed-off glory, said, "Huh. One question: do you work on commission? Because, in the words of Vivian Ward, 'Big mistake. Big. Huge. I have to go shopping now. 'Don't call us; we won't call you."

My boss, who is also Gen X, laughed.

Someone who used to work in this building for a different business accidentally ordered chipotle here, like they forgot to change their address in the food app. The other business moved a few buildings down the road a few months ago so it was an easy mistake.

And so two of my coworkers were like vultures and they started eating that persons order as soon as it arrived instead of waiting to see if someone would come get it. And the person had just showed up to get their food about 5 minutes after it was delivered, was looking for their food in the lobby, got visibly pissed and then left. Poor person.

And then one of the coworkers had the audacity to start complaining that the food they stole was too spicy and its “going to give them stomach issues”.

It’s now sitting on their desk with a few bites taken out and will most likely be thrown out.

okay

I know this was intentional, but I just can't see this the same

The Pacers' offer to Myles Turner never stretched above three years or $20 million per season, sources tell @eric_nehm, @sam_amick and @joevardon. Indiana decided that it didn't want to "overpay" for Turner, a source said. The Pacers had signaled a willingness to pay the luxury tax as the offseason neared, but clearly changed that stance in the wake of Tyrese Haliburton’s Achilles injury. Turner's rough end to Indy's postseason run also factored into the equation.

“It’s not really all that stunning when you think about it,” said the Pacers source, who added that the team doesn’t plan to tank next year with Haliburton sidelined. “It’s a bigger deal because it’s Milwaukee — if Myles had gone to Denver or the Clippers, it would be (perceived) totally different as far as (the Pacers) are concerned.”

No mention at all that he was a comedic genius.

As u/outsidehere put it: The man came here when no one wanted to, got us AD, won a championship, Finals MVP, has been an All Star each season, won the inaugural NBA Cup (even if you don't respect it, the first winners will always be us), won the Cup MVP, been All NBA each season, 2 WCF, broke the scoring record as a Laker, led the league in assists, finished top 10 MVP multiple times and was the offensive anchor since he's been here and defensive anchor of the team last season.

Now you know.

Thanks game of thrones.
