Share a story, ask a question, or start a conversation about (almost) anything you desire. Maybe you'll make some friends in the process.

RULES

  1. Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
  2. Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
  3. Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
  4. Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world
  5. Keep it clean and SFW
  6. No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc.

I’ll start. Booked a hotel next weekend via a big blue hotel booing site. Get a phone call today from the accomodation provider asking for payment. Told them to take it via the booking site. They say no, and I will lose my reservation. Booking site says pay the accomodation direct. Go on the accomodation site and I can’t book for the days I wanted. WTF arrrrrgh.

Got a job I like with coworkers I (mostly) like, and applied for an apartment in the upstairs. Busted my ass for a month to try and make a good impression, then 30 minutes after I arrived an hour late (I explained in the group chat that I misread the schedule and thought I was working PM, then showed up 20 minutes later) I was told my application was denied.

Fucking killed all the motivation I have for the job, especially since now I'm going to have to move with my parents 2 states away since there is NO affordable housing out here.
