When are teachers going to learn that they aren't going to get away with it? It's not worth losing your family, career and reputation .

I have a hacked version of 2024 Pro Plus. It has a license that never expires.
re: Most messed up thing you’ve seen in Walmart
Posted by cheobode on 5/4/26 at 8:12 am to Darth_Vader
I worked at Wal-Mart during Black Friday while I was in college. This was 2004 and the big item that year was $10 DVD players. We had two tables stacked with those things and plenty more in the back. Two older ladies grabbed the same last DVD player on one of the tables, they start tugging back and forth and yelling. One lady full on decks the other lady right in the face and she falls into the other table full of DVD players knocking them over.

I messed up and posted an old office trailer for free on Marketplace
My father in law inherited a piece of property with an older house on it. Small(800 sq ft), needed work so he posted it on marketplace for $5k to be moved.The foundation was solid but it did need new flooring throughout and some other cosmetic items. He just wanted it gone but didn't want to post it for free because of the idiots. He said it was the most nerve wracking experience. He had gotten moving quotes to move it from $15-20k and people were asking him to go down on the price because of the moving costs. One lady came look at it and said "it needed too much work". Lady, what do you expect? The house is selling for 5 THOUSAND DOLLARS!

I don't like knocking on these guys because their tech school is pretty tough and I wouldn't do it but their job is basically a glorified security guard. I wanted the Air Force to benefit my needs, not the other way around.

Nothing like a full military career of standing at the gate, usually with shitty leadership. I felt bad for those guys.
Yep, constantly on standby, getting "voluntold" to do shitty detail and just an overall horrible job. Unless you plan on being a civilian cop when you get out, it's pretty much useless for your future. Plus, a lot of civilian departments frown upon hiring ex military police because of UCMJ and you basically have get them out of that military mindset.

Back in the day most branches gave you a guaranteed specific job unless you went in under the open general category.
This category is how they filled the jobs no one wanted.
All but one of the guys that went Open General in my BMT flight got Security Forces as their job. It's a sucky job that no one wants. If I had to list job preference, it would be dead last.
I grew up in a 900 sq ft home with three small arse bedrooms and one bathroom we all had to share. Six people. My sister had her own room and my brothers and I had to share.

My brother in law has a Master's in Art History. You know what he does now? He's a nurse. Had to go back to school because he couldn't find a job in his field of study.
re: Weird dreams you've had

My dad passed away back in July. I've been having dreams about my great-grandfather that my dad was real close to. He passed away before I was born so I never got to meet him.

My wife worked for one years ago. I'm 6'2 and she was taller than me and her hands were huge so maybe it was a man after all.

Which ones were pulled? I was actually able to get a 4K Plus yesterday.

Be careful with FamilySearch. It's a useful tool, but it's community-researched data, so there are a LOT of errors.
I've noticed that on a few entries but I try to fact check as best as I can and compare other websites.

I have always referred to my cousins children as second cousins
If you have kids, your kids and your 1st cousins kids are second cousins.
quote:
Adding to the other info, a 1st cousin once removed is your parent’s first cousin. That person’s kids are usually your 2nd cousin
On the flip side, your 1st cousins child is your 1st cousin once removed as well.
quote:
I've never understood the 2nd and 3rd cousin thing. Can someone break down the exact definition?
I am interested in genealogy so I know this pretty well. Your 2nd cousin and you share a great grandparent, meaning one of your grandparents and their grandparent are siblings, in turn your parent and their parent are 1st cousins.
3rd cousin means you share a great great grandparent. Your great grandparent and theirs are siblings, in turn your grandparent and theirs are 1st cousins, your parent and theirs are 2nd cousins.
So on and so forth.

Cannot marry 1st cousin anymore. Now, 2nd?
If I were single, I don't think I could even date anyone that was 3rd cousin of mine. That means her great grandparent and my great grandparent were siblings. I guess if you didn't know or never met your great grandparents it wouldn't feel weird but I knew mine.
I legit dated a girl who got an online degree from Kaplan University because she literally thought it was in Kaplan, Louisiana. Special.
