What’s scary is that I c that downtrend. I c that VIX holding 20. I c the market selling off. And I still long knowing that there’ll be a bounce. I hate how I’ve been conditioned cause I know one of these days it won’t happen and I’ll blow up my account again. 🥶
*On conference call with the C-suite in a different time zone*
*I’m on the toilet playing Tetris on my phone with the call in the background*
*I think the call is muted*
Some C-Suite dork: “So as we move into the next quarter, I think we’ll need to double down on—“
Me: “Groaaan” *plop* (*Gets Tetris I wanted in that exact moment*) “Ohhh my goood I got you fucker”
CEO: “Who was that?? WHO WAS THA—“
Me: *Hangs up call*
As I'm seeing more and more companies perform "cost saving measures" while boosting C-Level pay/benefits, I'm starting to suspect that the products and services we use are just gonna get shittier and shittier. Capitalism BABYYY
This. I swapped to T-Mobile when I moved and it was alright but I got poor reception in buildings. When it came time to upgrade T-Mobile didn’t have any discounts on equipment so I swapped back to Verizon hoping that the coverage would be as good as I remembered. It’s not.
As soon as my equipment discounts have paid off my phones I’m swapping. There have been multiple network outages for Verizon in just the last few months.
