  • And a lot of those people arrived when those communities were already built up on reddit.

    This seems to be a type of post that keeps popping up more and more. Some people are venting and mourning their loss of reddit, which I get… but others have a sense of entitlement, of wanting to have things without needing to work for it. They want someone else to put in the blood, sweat and tears and be the ones to reap the benefits.

    Imagine pilgrims coming to early North America and no one wanting to participate once they arrived, because no pre-built cities exited? We wouldn’t have a country in the US (though I’m sure that must have been the attitude of some)



  • Close to 72hrs. I work in the entertainment industry and we had a project that was poorly lead. Overpromises were made, not enough time and people. It was two of us working from Friday into Sunday. The issue with the place with worked at (besides the company itself) was that the heat would shut off at night and the weekends. We both worked in a little small office, that used to be a closet. An electric space heater kept us warm while we worked, but once you opened the door into the main office space it was freezing, because it was the dead of winter. I tried to catch a nap a few times, but it was way too cold to actually sleep on the couch. The other issue was the noise being created by the city that was building a park across the street and breaking through the foundation. We eventually finished the project, and when they were thanking the people involved for all the great work, the two of us were not mentioned. Lovely place.
