Dropped $350 on a standing desk after my back gave out from sitting 9 hours a day

Honestly that whole manager napping thing is a huge red flag lol. But here's something nobody talks about - those cheap office chairs they stock in cubicles are literally designed to wear out your spine so you have to replace them every 2 years. It's like printer ink scam but for your back. I read somewhere that most corporate furniture is made with the cheapest foam and plastic that fails fast, forcing companies to buy more. Meanwhile the manager is sleeping on a $2000 ergonomic chair in the conference room they probably ordered for themselves. So you're not just getting wrecked by sitting, you're getting wrecked by a system that profits from your pain.

Warning: I spent 3 months using thermal paste from a repackaged tube and ruined a build

Lol I once used mayo in a pinch and honestly it worked better than some of those cheap tubes!

Rant: I just read a report that 60% of small businesses that get hit with ransomware go under within six months.

Passwords are just one part of it, though. People cut corners everywhere because they think being careful takes too much time, like how folks skip backing up their photos until the phone dies. It adds up to a lot of risk that nobody wants to deal with until it's too late.

Used to hang pictures by eyeballing it, now I use a laser level after a disaster in my living room

Eyeballing it was good enough for generations before us.

Rant: I hit 47 minutes on hold with my internet company before anyone picked up

My record with Comcast was 72 minutes while making a sandwich.
