Včera jsem byl hnusný řidič.
V Londýně přistoupila dáma, lístek mi švihla před očima, tak abych neměl čas reagovat.
Tak jsem ji zastavil, že ho chci vidět.
Jistě, lístek na předchozí autobus.
Prý nepřijel (zdravili jsme se, když jsem parkoval na pauzu).
Ale já byl “rude” a bude si stěžovat.

Takový #protip
Když máte problém, zkuste s jednat na rovinu.
Mě je u prdele, jestli mám 51 nebo 52 pasažérů.
Ale pokud si se mnou chcete vytřít držku, tak si připravte pevné boty, čeká vás dlouhá vycházka

Continued thread

I do have a black cocoa powder in the cabinet, so I'll use that instead.

Also, #protip, don't line your mold with plastic wrap if you're going to pop yours into the freezer to set up. The wrap will tend to tear, leaving annoying little bits of plastic around that you'll need to pull off with tweezers. Nobody wants that, tbh.

Something I'm learning as I get a bit older: make notes/recipes for large, multi-step processes.

To whit, when I looked at my local instance of HexDescribe to generate the contents of a new area that the PCs are venturing into... and I had that "WTH DO I DO??? I FORGOT!" moment.

Now I have a text file in the same folder as the hex maps, explaining exactly WTH to do...

#ProTip: if you toot successive sentences beginning "Potting up…" and "High time…" you might just gain some unexpected followers!
But anyway, time with a second extremely large whisky in hand, to sink like hot knives through butter into a piping hot bath!
And BTW, rest in power Martin Slavin, amongst other talents a gardener who knew his weeds.

#ProTip: If you change the number from which you text customers to something with no callerID in a different area code, you should NOT just send an initial message to all of your customers saying “$SERVICE is important, click here for an appointment" without any indication of who you are or why you're SPAMMING them. And when you get back foul-mouthed reponses, just accept that you fucked up.
In related news: I need to find a new dentist.

#ProTip if you ever think using 2 day UPS shipping with shopbeam.com will be a faster way to get your order, think again…

…placed two orders last Friday and the one that is coming USPS is coming today…

…while the one coming UPS never left their warehouse and is "stuck in fulfillment process”…

…and to boot i was saddled with a customer service rep who is either dishonest or a moron or both…

…never will i ever try using 2 day UPS shipping again

Today's random baking #protip

If you want a shiny, crackly surface to your bread but have a hard/impossible time getting it (like I do, I have a gas oven and it's near-impossible) you can get one with a quick starch glaze. Mix flour and water in a 1:10 mix (1g flour per 10g water), nuke it for a few seconds and stir to properly gelatinize the starch, and brush it on the loaf before scoring and popping it in the oven.

You get a lovely, shiny crust. Mmmm, tasty.

Des années de télétaf comme support technique, voici une astuce très importante :
Que les gens vous voient ou pas, la pause c'est vital

Il ne faut pas avoir peur de dire avec naturel, sans se justifier, "Dans une/zéro minute je dois raccrocher, on se rappelle dans 5 ou 15 minutes"

Sinon jamais vous allez pisser.

Avec naturel : c'est naturel !

Si ce sont des correspondant⋅e⋅s réguliers que vous aimez bien, expliquez qu'iels peuvent aussi le faire, ça fait du bien de faire une pause !
