Enjoy the classic taste of the holidays at Tim's with the new non-alcoholic Bailey's flavored holiday menu.
Whether you're hanging holiday lights or driving up to your folks,
you can enjoy your Tim's and Bailey's anytime, anywhere at participating restaurants in Canada.
Welcome to R-Slash, a podcast where I read the best posts from across Reddit.
Today's subreddit is R-Slash choosing beggars and next award from our sponsors.
Review one star. This school is pretty new in LACS organization. Also, this school is very
inconsiderate of their student safety. I feel as if I have to protest for better bus transportation,
shaking my head. The school transportation director insisted on picking my six-year-old up in the
mornings from across
the street of a busy intersection near a Plaza parking lot, instead of picking her up in
front of my apartment complex entrance. Now, when she would even concern her care about
the situation, and then the school replies, our school is a charter school that serves students
from all over Blank and surrounding counties. We carefully plan our routes to be efficient, attempting to keep the travel time as short
as we can with such long distances.
It's important to us to provide transportation so anyone who wishes to attend may do so.
Because we cover such a large area, we must choose stops that serve as many people as possible.
And parents generally have to bring their students to the stop that's nearest their
home or work.
The stop you requested was not a safe place for the bus to sit and wait, so we couldn't
add that to the route.
However, we hope that having a bus stop in the parking lot so close to your home allows
you to conveniently bring your child to the stop instead of having to come all the way
to the school.
So, that's PR's speak for.
We are not your personal driver.
Show some respect for the free transportation that we're offering you are drive the kid
here yourself.
I'm interested in your PS4 Pro.
Sure, it's 180 bucks.
I'll pay 84 it.
I'm sorry, but the price is non-negotiable.
The PS4 Pro 1 terabyte is usually sold for 200 bucks, but I'm selling mine for 180 though.
Pro, come on man, you don't even use the f-ing thing and my uncle died yesterday.
I'm sorry for your uncle, but please no profanity.
Also, 80 bucks is way too low.
The lowest I can go is 165.
90 dollars with wine.
Is this a joke?
I've seen the thing for $80 on eBay. Then buy it there
if you're not satisfied with my price. Thank you.
F you! Hey man, if your uncle died, then surely he left you 200 bucks, right? Or if he
didn't leave you any money, maybe it's because you're such a butt face. Am I the butthole
for not buying my girlfriend's brother-in-law a bed?
I'm 21 years old, my girlfriend is 23.
Her sister is in her 30s and she's married to a dude the same age.
They're currently going through some tough times and he's been furloughed.
But his job really relies on commission so he's not earning nearly enough.
And she's just had a child and can't go back to work and her maternity has run out.
Currently he's been sleeping on their couch.
I'm not sure what the reasoning is, but it's something to do with him not being able
to sleep properly with another person.
So they decided they wanted to buy a second bed, but can't afford it.
So my girlfriend says she wants us to lend them some money as we're doing a little better
than them.
We have some savings, but we also live fairly far away, so we don't get to do much for them. So I was alright with sending them like a hundred pounds.
That's how much we get our bid for. I reckon they could do the same, but the brother-in-law
doesn't think that's enough. He wants a bid that costs 400 pounds. His reasoning is,
you buy cheap, you buy twice. Am I the butthole for not wanting to buy a 400 pound
bed? I could afford it but it would make money a little tighter for me as I'm
only earning minimum wage. I just think 400 is a little steep for a second bed.
OP you get zero out of five buttholes. This guy has the audacity to say you buy
cheap you buy twice. Dude you're not buying at all, you're getting other people to buy it for you.
So appreciate the donation or screw off.
Hello, I love your work so much.
Are your commissions still open?
Hello, glad you like my work.
Yes, my commissions are open.
What can I do for you?
Okay, great.
So I'm a huge fan of your Art New Vogue style, especially the last one.
I would love to have like a self-portrait in that style.
I see, so like a bust or a full body.
Maybe to the thighs, just like your last post.
Okay, great choice.
With color?
I just want you to know that this style is really full of detail, so it might be more expensive.
Yes, definitely with colors. There's no problem. I can pay like up to 100 euros. Okay, great,
but I'm sorry it might be more than that with the colors. See, I usually take a pay rate of 15 euros
an hour, and the last post without colors took me like 6 to 7. If you want the drawing to be
accurate enough to look more like you, it might take even
more time, so with full colors, I would estimate more around 200 to 220 euros.
How, okay, 15 an hour, that sounds like a lot.
I thought I was generous with 100, but that's too much for me.
I understand, but those are my prices.
Well, to fit more of your budget, I can do it without the colors.
No, it's still too much, sorry.
I can't get why you're charging so much for a drawing.
I make a living out of it, and I think they're pretty reasonable for commission work.
Yeah, but it's still like a drawing.
You do that out of passion in your free time, right?
I don't usually draw portraits as strangers in my free time lol. You just lost a client.
Bye. Have a nice day. Lady, if you don't pay the guy, then you're not a client. On this next
post, OP is a maid and she got this message from a client. Hi, OP. Just wanted to let you know
that we loved the cleaning last week, and was wondering if you could come back every month?
Also, we were wondering if you would give us a discount next time. We saw you refilling
your water bottle from our sink. It seems not a big deal, but our water bill is pretty high,
especially with our new pool. Looking forward to seeing you again. Thank you.
So, I had to look it up, and a thousand gallons of tap water cost like two bucks.
So that discount would be less than a penny.
So I say go for it OP.
Send them a bill with a line that specifically has one cent subtracted.
Also imagine being rich enough to have a swimming pool but then haggling
over literal pennies. Well, not even pennies, literally a penny.
You're flying to meet with a new supplier to keep your business growing.

major grocer.

Also, OP posted an update and the reason why she needed a glass of water was because
they turn off the AC when she's working.
This is the message she sent back.
Hi Choosing Beggar, I'm so very glad you loved the cleaning last week.
I give it my all to every house.
As far as the water that I took from your sink, with the face mask, gloves, and the AC off
in your home, it gets very hot.
I sweat a lot when cleaning, which I have to replace with water.
I have to be hydrated because it wouldn't be fun with me passing out in your home because
of dehydration.
Please send your Vennmoura PayPal for the reimbursement of 32 ounces of water.
It's too sense a gallon.
As far as me coming back again, it seems like we're not a good match.
I wish you good luck in health.
Have a good day.
This next post is a post asking someone to give her free driving
lessons in their car. Looking for a very detailed oriented calm, confident, direct and good
communicator who possesses a good sense of humor. You must be a volunteer female driver
with a vehicle in almost perfect condition. A small SUV type vehicle, not a car, because
this is the type of vehicle I'll be doing
the test in.
You must possess a license in highway driving and have ability for practical communication
regarding driving skills.
It would be great if you'd be a bit of a perfectionist as a driver, but calm low.
I'm in need of a volunteer and your vehicle to take me out into the highways for 8 separate
1 to 1.5 hour sessions between now and September 1st.
So to most people, I feel like this is the worst offer imaginable.
But to a kidnapper, this lady is making it way too easy.
This man asked me out on a date.
He was actually fine as hell, but when I asked him where we're going, he said,
and I quote ladies, Applebees. I busted out laughing at his silly cheap self. I told him I own
my own shop, a house, a BMW and stocks. I can buy Applebees. Then I walked away. You should
have seen his face. I'm worth more than Applebees. You have to impress me and
that ain't it. Ladies keep them standards high as hell. Don't settle for a broke man. And then
someone replies. So because he offered to take you to dinner at Applebees, he's broke. You had to
tell him of all your worldly accomplishments to sound good. You don't know that man's financial status. He could own several Applebees.
He could be a broker.
He could be a doctor, but you judged him off a restaurant.
I'm sure if I saw his face, he would be laughing because he just dodged a bullet.
You own all of those things, but you still don't have a man.
It's not because your standards are high, it's because you ain't nothing.
Then down in the comments, we had this story from Udi Dubbin.
My ex's roommate was a little gold digger.
She had a guy who was really wealthy ask her out.
On date night, she came home early and super angry.
Why?
For their first date, he said,
You've never been to Sizzler, boy are you in for a treat.
She got pissed, ghosted out of the restaurant, and took a cab home.
I became the bad guy when I pointed out to her that taking her to Sizzler was probably a test and she failed.
We could hear in the other room calling him and begging for a second chance.
Nope.
This is horrible.
I went to Mumus to get free water and they gave us cups of water without lids.
And I asked for a lid and they said they don't have lids for those cups.
I told them I'm pregnant and walking with my two year old son and trying to catch the
bus.
And they said we can't give you the bigger cups because you have to pay for them.
So I said never mind, you can keep your water and I walked out.
It just upsets me because my son started crying
because he wanted some water and he needed a lid for the cup. Yeah, I agree lady, put a lid on it.
Our next reddit post is from Miss Magoo. I work at an urgent care center that tests for COVID.
We're the only ones in our area that does this and most of the other clinics are still closed
because they're afraid of people showing up not knowing they have COVID.
The Doctor I work for is a really awesome guy, so I'm not shocked to be volunteer to do
testing for our area.
The back of our clinic is for COVID testing and treating, while the front is for urgent
care and primary care.
There's a lot of new protocols.
The majority of info needs to be taken over the phone, so the phones are always ringing.
Only one person at a time in the lobby. Everything the patient touches needs to be taken over the phone so the phones are always ringing. Only one person at a time in the lobby.
Everything the patient touches needs to be disinfected.
The doors are always locked.
One door is for letting patients in and the side door is for letting them out.
And I've been yelled at by people so many times now.
We're usually a walk in establishment, but due to COVID, everything is by appointment
only.
Lastly, everyone must wear a mask.
We don't get a designated lunchtime and to accommodate people we've scheduled over it.
The most we ask people to wait is two hours, and for emergency patients, no more than 10 minutes.
People have slammed our doors, called us Nazis, tried to break our door open, yelled at us,
told us we were a joke, threatened us, refused to leave, refused
to wear a mask, say we're infringing on the rights, the list goes on.
Patients who I knew, who I talked to on a daily basis, are dead.
A couple that came in often were dead in three days.
We've had patients commit suicide because of this.
I've had people call up crying because loved
ones are in the hospital with COVID and they're afraid. So God forbid I ask you to wear
a mask and wait your turn. Thanks for letting me rant and stay safe.
On this next post, OP sold his PS4 and afterwards, he gets a message from this guy. Is this
still available? I'll buy right now. I literally just sold it. Dang,
let me borrow some money like 20 bucks. What? Well, you know what I mean. Can I borrow
some money? I'll pay a back-eye swear. So, you wanted to buy a PS4 for 275 bucks, but
after I said it was sold, you now want to borrow money? Elimeo, yeah, why not, you're rich.
Why are you buying things you don't have money for?
Come on, bro, help me out.
Uh, no.
Then, this choosing beggar sends OP a picture of a bunch of $100 bills,
which I don't know, I guess are real and not just taking off of Google Images,
who can know for sure.
And then, down in the comments, we have this story from Ten of Most Churros.
God, this gives me flashbacks to my old job.
I worked at a club, it had a $10 entrance fee.
I mostly worked in the front as a cashier, getting people's money and letting them in.
Every time we hadn't been for younger people, the following happened.
Can I get in for free?
No.
I brought like five friends though.
Still no.
Wow, you're a butthole.
Yeah, I guess.
Then inevitably a 20 minute long argument backing up the line and annoying everyone within
a 20 mile radius.
Ugh, fine.
And the person opens their wallet very slowly.
So I can see the wide of $100 bills inside.
They grab one of the hundreds and basically throws it at me while giving me an ugly look.
Every frickin' time, at least three times a night.
Funny thing is, I give zero flips about that job.
If someone clearly legit didn't have money or asked nicely, I'd gladly let them in for
free. It's the attitude that gladly let them in for free.
It's the attitude that shot those people in the foots.
