My station used to have $25/hour base pay. A month or 2 ago they cut it to $24. Now all the sudden it's all the way down to $19.50. Michigan if anyone is curious. Still barely any offers available btw, so people are accepting this crap.

So just to be clear, gas is up roughly 50% in the last couple months in my area, and pay is down over 25%. How tf is this sustainable?

There's a tornado warning in my area. The station closed up right as I was arriving. I took pictures of the station closure sign, and contacted support both over the phone and text to get something on the record. They of course only gave the canned response that it takes 24-48 hours to determine eligibility for payment while refusing to explain what makes you eligible.

Wondering if there's anything else I should do to ensure I get paid? I've only had one station closure before. I went through weeks of contacting support and just kept getting automated responses telling me how to check in and scan my id, which of course is impossible when the station is closed. Any tips?

Hey all, I'm thinking about renting a set of TLS panchros to pair with a mini LF. I know that anything wider than the 40mm won't cover the whole sensor. I'm wondering if anyone has any experience using extenders with these lenses?

My plan would be to use the extender (ideally a 1.4x) on the 18 and 25, making them effectively 25 and 35. Then I'd use everything from the 40 on up without the extender.

I know not all extenders are compatible with all lenses. Sometimes if the glass protrudes too far from the mount, it makes it impossible to attach the extender. Has anyone used extenders with these lenses and if so, which ones?

It's a gas dryer, but the screen won't even power on. It tripped the breaker a few times recently, but now it won't turn back on when properly connected to power. Any ideas what to check for?

Some family background is necessary so apologies, this will be a long one. My parents are extremely traditional Roman Catholics. I (26M) am one of 9 children. My older sister (28) is getting married in a few months.

I moved out when I was 17 due to issues with my parents' strict rules. We've had issues ever since I was a teenager, and eventually when I stopped practicing Catholicism I was essentially disowned from the family. There's been quite a lot of drama and back and forth over the years, with me sometimes being invited over for family dinners and what not, and at other times being unwelcome at home.

Two of my younger brothers (23&20) followed suit and left home at a young age to come

I received 2 identical emails from Stretto about my claim. The first one showed that I had essentially zero balances, but the second email showed all my balances correctly.

That freaked me out a little bit so I requested my claim information again on the Stretto website. The same exact thing happened again. 2 emails. One with correct balances, one with almost no balance. Anyone have something similar happen?

I haven't filed a claim, this is just the info they have on file. Is this sketchy enough to justify filing a claim just to clarify everything?

It's my favorite song from the album. I've seen a bunch of set lists and it seems like it's the only song from the album that's never on there. I just need to hear Molly go crazy with the vocals at the 2:51 mark in the song. I saw a live debut video of it a couple days ago so I'm hoping they keep it going. Please add it to the set list! Can't wait to hear it in Detroit

P.S. Ones Who Love You should alvvays be the encore song. Best Alvvays song of all time

I've had insomnia for as long as I can remember. Even as a kid I always had trouble falling asleep at night. I've tried every over the counter sleep aid in existence, and have been prescribed several from doctors. White noise, meditation, etc. You name it, I've tried it. Drinking seems to be the only thing that helps me sleep.

Obviously I know relying on alcohol to sleep is not a good thing, but that seems to be my biggest barrier to reducing my drinking. I actually function better when I do drink at night. I'm able to wake up on time for work, feeling rested enough to make it through the day. If I don't drink, I'll toss and turn all night, maybe getting 2 hours of sleep if I'm lucky, and I

My dumbass bought tickets just before realizing that I'm scheduled to work until 9pm that day. It's the Detroit show on April 24th, doors are at 6:30. Luckily my work is literally 2 minutes away from the venue.

There are 2 opening acts, right? I figure if the first opener starts at 7:30, then Cavetown will come on around 9:30, leaving me time to sneak in. For those that have seen shows on this tour, think I'll make it in time?
