I had no idea menards only hired PT. That's some bullshit. My last 3 jobs I got from temp agencies. Those 3 companies I worked for all had a policy of exclusively hiring full time temps only because they could get full time employees without having to pay benefits and they could fire them for no reason if they wanted and have no repercussions from it. The temp agency could work ppl full time for 3 months before benefits would kick in. So either the job they get you hires you directly after 3 months or they let you go and the temp agency then has no job available and because the hours would drop from 40 to zero they wouldn't have to pay benefits either. It's a shitty system to, but maybe some temp agencies around you have some jobs available?

It's really the only way Menard's makes money. They can't really compete with Lowe's and Home Depot due to their limited reach (and shitty tools, they don't sell anything of quality) and the owners and big wigs are pretty shitty people all around. The only reason the one I work at does so well is the nearest Lowe's is an hour and a half away so most people don't want to drive that far to get actual, quality shit. I never thought I could hate a company more then I hated Walmart but Menards makes Walmart look like saints

Meh, the temp agency market here is pretty dried up atm due to the lack of jobs since, as noted, most of them rely heavily on the oil field (and the ones hiring are hiring in places I'd have to move to). I'm honestly at the point where I might just start looking elsewhere for a job since I'm sick of this city and only moved out here due to family issues. Sadly I can't afford  to get a place atm so it'll be really hard justifying a move with little money unless I find a job that pays quite a bit more (which is unlikely out here since this is the only part of the state where most jobs are willing to pay a living wage of $15 or more (and that's getting rarer now with the oil field being in shambles and most people moving out of the state and back home)). Plus with the issues that have cropped up recently (one of the reasons I've been awol) I can't really leave.

Damn that sucks. I hope Menards gets their shit together and gets you on full time soon.

The s21 looks great. I'm happy with samsung phones. I love my s20 fe. I haven't tried that brand of case before but Supcase makes a great case and is easily on par with otterbox. I've seen the apple user reaction thing plenty of times. It's so stupid. I hope sms apps do an update to turn a block of text like that into an emoji instead.

Its not ultimate protection, but its all I ever need. I don't drop phones... ever. I've only ever cracked one screen and it was my S10+ when I braced a heavy pallet on my leg where it was in my pocket. Its one of those just in case things.

That looks good. BTW the camera in your phone is better than mine and I can take pics of the moon with it. Lol. Try zooming in at least 30x on the moon and tap on it. It'll auto focus amazingly well.

I think the cooling system/fans are broke. It came back on a few days later and I played for a few hours and streamed some.. but tonight I let YT run for 2-3 hours and started playing a game and it cut off on me again. I guess I'll have to limit my playing time until I get a PS5. I'm not paying to fix it or get a new PS4.

my brother lend me ps5 for a week back in jan. mostly i played ghost of tsushima but it had sound glitch. it goes mute every 30 mins or so while playing. this is my game that played flawlessly with my ps4. im still not that eager to buy one if its available and maybe its too soon to tell but my brother is now convinced ps5 is not much better than ps4.

@DeathscytheX I had dust build up in my PS4 pretty bad a few years ago, I used a can of compressed air and a vacuum to blow and suck all the dust out. It really did seem to help the air flow.

@slippers My brother has a ps5, he seems to really like it, but I don't hear him raving about how amazing it is like when the ps4 came out compared to the ps3. I think its still too early and theres not enough games out yet that really take advantage of the hardware. I guess one good thing is that it can play these ps4 games. I remember when the ps4 came out the only game I really played on it for that first year was battlefield 4. With no backwards compatibility my ps4 sat for months without use and got dusty.

One of the best damn shows of it's season and definitely can't wait for the movie to come state side since I hear it's just as amazing (giving ufotable a movie budget is nuts, I can only imagine what they did with it). Really hoping we get a second season and seeing how well the movie did in Japan I have really high hopes it will. Another bonus is the manga is done so we won't have to wait if they do decide to adapt the whole thing (though I hear the ending isn't exactly great).

I finished watching Demon Slayer over the weekend. Great anime.  Maybe its just me but I felt like it got alot of inspiration from Anne Rice's vampire novels with the power of the demon blood. And with 1 original demon with the most powerful blood of them all, it was like he was the equivalent of the Queen of the Damned. Really good series. I love that it time skipped around too and there was nothing that felt like filler. I hope a second season happens.

Congrats!  thats a lot. I think jobs can be like a lottery sometimes..well life in general for that matter. i spent almost $100 on mega million hoping to win something last month but i know thatll never happen.

Thanks! $100?! XD I def bought tickets every week until someone won that billion. But only $2-6 at a time. 

I did the same. $4 every week for the last 3 weeks until someone won. Lol. I would have loved having that money.

Breaking bad was really good, some of the best acting I've seen in a series. But I never was interested in Better Call Saul so I skipped on that show.

He would def have to be one of your favorite characters for you to be into the show. It was nothing like I thought it was going to be. I was expecting it to be about more of his illegal antics outside of Walter and Jesse, but its more a prequel of how he became Saul Goodman. He still has a sense of morality and feels bad when he does shady stuff. Its more about a reject getting his way though the world than a crime drama.
