  • I was in charge with creating, designing, configuring, and running an e-commerce site on Shopify as well as responding to customer emails and orders. This was for a start-up. First orders would get a promo code for a 15% discount on a next purchase.

    CEO tells me we need to get rid of stock fast as possible, so make a storewide discount on certain models. I go and do that.

    We receive a bulk order of 50 of the discounted units while also using the 15% off promo code we sent out to early purchasers. Realized I should have put in a rule that doesn’t allow discounts to stack…

    CEO and other members all unanimously voted to get rid of me a couple of hours later.







  • This has kept me from reaching out to all of my old friends. They ended up hanging out amongst themselves just like old times but I figured if they wanted me there with them too they’d invite me. Since they haven’t, they’re probably fine with me not being there/dont want me there. Oh well. Still makes me sad about missed interactions but I guess it is what it is.

    I used to be toxic (maybe I still am?) so this is my punishment for it.







  • I’ve been bouncing around Linux distros since 2007.

    I’ve been a big Ubuntu fan but Bazzite has absolutely blown me away, especially for gaming. Everything just works out of the box. No tweaking, no driver installations, no troubleshooting.

    My multi monitor display and dock with peripherals (including webcam and wireless headset) just works with a single USB connection on the dock.

    Call me a shill for bazzite but if you are just using the pc like a windows user would to play games, you won’t go wrong with it. I could basically say the same for any Ubuntu or Fedora distro but from my experience, those require some tweaking for everything to work nice.
