6 hour round trip, a slipping clutch and a semi-broken starter motor later. Was it worth picking these up? Ohyes. Finally good to be back home.
Sony KV-29F1E and Panasonic AG-500 "microwave". Both in immaculate condition, I don't think the Sony has had any use judging by the clean HV wire and the seller's story about it. The Panasonic looks great too. submitted by /u/hawkiee552 to r/crt [link] [comments]

Stuck in a foreign country, I’m not having fun anymore.
I’ve been in Vietnam since the beginning of February. It was originally supposed to be a 4-week family vacation. However my visa was issued incorrectly and now I’m fucked. My passport was seized by the immigration police because I have an overstay issue. It’s been 3 weeks and no answers. I went into the office today to try to talk to the officer that helped me, but the front desk guy fully refused. I asked for my passport, and he pretended not to understand me. I had SIL on the phone and he said he can’t help because he doesn’t have access to the file. He told me I had to go back to the hotel to wait for the call. So I’m just sitting here like an idiot. So frustrating. I’ve been joking a lot about how I get an extended vacation, I did this on purpose so I could stay near the beach without my family, of COURSE this would happen to me (the only non-Vietnamese person in the family) and blah blah, just so I could not be so depressed. But I’ll be honest I’m over it. The beach is just sand and water and overpriced alcohol. And I have a beach at home. I miss my family terribly. My Vietnamese translator probably ghosted me, my friends and family are back home trying to help to no avail, and I’m here by myself in a crappy hotel with rude judgy receptionists. At least the view is a view. Thanks for reading. (This sad girl dinner is from yesterday - hope that’s okay) Edit to add: This is spicy ramen. Sometimes you gotta switch it up, you know? Also, for the embassy questions. I already spoke to my country’s embassy/consulate and they are unable to assist. They have to abide by the country’s laws and cannot expedite or interfere with their investigation. If I ever figure out what they’re investigating, I’ll let you all know lol. I’m not a criminal or anything, just someone who got the dates mixed up. It’s a costly mistake. Edit 2: For people who think I’m lying about all this, here’s a post from 3 years ago where someone else had the same issue. And no, I don’t need money, perhaps maybe some good wine when all this is over. Edit 3: Canadian Govt Link The info below as an FYI. Overstaying your Vietnamese visa or having the wrong type of visa is a serious matter. You may be delayed from onward travel until a fine is paid. Check the visa validity and conditions carefully. Exit bans Vietnamese authorities may place an exit ban on certain individuals to prevent them from leaving the country. An exit ban can relate to investigations into: - an individual, their family or an employer - criminal and civil matters, such as business disputes or motor vehicle accidents - employment without a valid work permit - unpaid financial debts It is difficult to obtain information on bans from Vietnamese authorities. An exit ban can be requested by people involved in any of these circumstances. You may not be aware that authorities have placed an exit ban on you until you try to leave the country. Your passport may be seized until the case is fully investigated and settled. If you're unable to leave the country because of an exit ban, consult a lawyer and contact the closest office of the Government of Canada. Last edit: to clarify, overstaying is a crime in Vietnam. That is literally the only thing they are holding me here for. I am free to walk around and eat at restaurants and stuff. And lol at the beach comments, I don’t actually live near one but I drive to one two hours north of Toronto in the summer. Close enough I guess? I posted about this a few weeks ago. submitted by /u/RareStrawberry2020 to r/GirlDinnerDiaries [link] [comments]

AIO my girlfriend left me over a cheese wheel
I am NOT OOP. OOP is u/Jems138 Originally posted to r/AmIOverreacting AIO my girlfriend left me over a cheese wheel ---- Editor’s note: please be aware that OOP is from Canada, so any numbers you see in this post, they are based on Canadian currency Original Post: January 28, 2026 I (27M) and my girlfriend (26F) were saving for a house down payment. I work, and she is unemployed. I have saved 32,000 (editor’s note: about $23,594 USD) and she has saved 4,000 (editor’s note: close to $2,950 USD) so I feel like I bear the brunt of the financial decision making here. I was doing the Oxford county cheese trail, and found a “vault release”. They were selling a 140 pound wheel of 21 year old cheddar. It was aged using a traditional cloth bound method That’s practically extinct here in Canada, and with over 21 years it is extremely concentrated. 21 year old cheddar often sells for 120$ a pound (editor’s note: almost $90 USD). The farm was selling the entire wheel for 18,500$ (editor’s note: $13,640 USD) . If I cut it into 200g wedges and sell it at 60$ each (editor’s note: approximately $45 USD) I can make 38,000$ (editor’s note: about $28,016). I bought the cheese wheel, and brought it home in my truck. When I rolled it into our apartment at first she was excited, when I started to explain the financials and investment potential she turned sour. She didn’t yell, but expressed she wasn’t happy about how I spent MY share of our house savings. She is now staying with her parents. I think she’s overreacting because she doesn’t understand the Canadian housing market. Our savings is not enough for a down payment without a ridiculous mortgage, and we need to take these opportunities. AIO? Or am I the only one with ambition in our relationship? TLDR; my girlfriend is staying with her parents because I spent my share of our savings on a cheese wheel which can be cut into wedges and sold for a sizeable profit. Relevant / Top Comments Has OOP been able to slice and taste the cheese yet? OOP: I haven’t figured out how to open it yet, it’s covered in thick wax. It looks like a cannon ball. I have tried using a hair dryer and a knife but I can’t get into it. Commenter 1: Bud. You have no plan. You have no buyers. You are bad at math. You aren’t in the restaurant industry- you’re not connected to unload it while it’s still good. It’s perishable as soon as you break into it. You’ve also said in another comment that you’re trying to melt the wax. Which will absolutely ruin it. You’re fumbling around in the dark. You made a bad call. Like a seriously bad one. OOP: The cheese is no longer perishable. After 21 years all the moisture that would cause it to go bad has been replaced by calcium lactate crystals. Editor's note: the calculations mentioned might or might not be correct. Commenter 2: You say this cheese "often sells for $120 a pound", yet you actually paid $132 a pound for it. In that case it sounds to me like you overpaid and could struggle to turn a profit off it. Next you say: "If I cut it into 200g wedges and sell it at 60$ each I can make 38,000$." 200 grams is 7 ounces. You could get a maximum of 320, 7 ounces slices out of a 140 pound wheel, assuming zero waste. At $60 each that would get you $19,200, not $38,000. Your math is totally off for one thing, and I suspect you're going to struggle to find hundreds of customers willing to pay $60 for 7 ounces of cheese, so most likely you will lose money from this venture. That said, your money is yours to do what you want with, but if you have a partner you are planning a future with it's a bad idea to make big decisions like this without running it by them first. It breeds distrust, resentment, instability, etc. You're supposed to discuss things together and make decisions together. That's how partnerships work. In this case maybe your partner could have checked your math and explained how far off your numbers were and saved you from a costly mistake. YOR OOP: You are dividing the 140 pounds by 7 ounces but you are forgetting that there are 16 ounces in a pound. So if you divide the 140 by 7, the 7 goes into 14 twice. Commenter 3: You spent $18,500 on cheese with no actual plan on how to you’re going to recoup that outside of “Yeah I can totally sell this!!!” 140 pounds equals 63,500 grams. You’re talking about selling 200 gram wedges. That would require you to prepare, package and sell 317 units without any kind of market presence. Incidentally, your math is WAY off. Selling 317 wedges at $60 each comes to $19,050, which nets you a whopping $650 for what will surely be weeks of work on the completely off chance you manage to sell everything. Enjoy being the human equivalent of a Kraft Single. OOP: You are forgetting that there are 16 ounces in a pound so if you divide the 140 by the 7 ounce wedge , the 7 goes into 14 twice Commenter 4: You are insane if you think anyone is paying over a hundred bucks for a pound of freaking cheese. OOP: You can’t compare this heritage cheese to a grocery store commodity, the scarcity dictates the price. Commenter 5: Who is going to pay $120/lb for cheese that some random person is selling out of their apartment? If I was going to spend that much I'd want to know that it was stored and handed properly. And actually do you need a food safety license to do this kind of thing? OOP: 1) It’s not a commodity, it’s a heritage cheese and the value is determined by the scarcity. You can’t get this cheese from a regular retailer. 2) I have my Ontario food handlers certificate. Commenter 6: How in the hell are you going to find enough buyers for this niche cheese? Don't you need a license to sell food? What regulations do you have to follow? After you cut the cheese, how long will the wheel stay fresh? Can you store it appropriately to preserve it for that length of time? Even a supermarket would have a hard time going through an entire wheel of niche super expensive cheese. I don't think you thought this through enough for it to be a good idea. You would probably be lucky to recover the amount you paid to begin with, and are probably going to be skirting the law to sell it unless you are already licensed to do so Your girlfriend essentially moving out because of this seems extreme, but to be fair this seems like you really didn't think things through. OOP: Also the cheese will not spoil, after 21 years all the moisture has been replaced by calcium lactate crystals. Once the wax seal is broken I will be putting it in my chest freezer Commenter 7: How did she "save" $4,000 being unemployed? Unless it was from her unemployment payments, but he never mentioned she was getting paid unemployment. How much does unemployment even payout, total, anyways? Maybe it was Birthday/Christmas money from relatives. If you were to look at it as percentage saved to money "available" or in his case "earned" she saved way more than he did! Why was not contributing his fair share? OOP: She doesn’t have any overhead because I pay the bills, hence why I feel that It is acceptable for me to make financial decisions like investing in high yield assets like the traditional cloth bound, 21-year aged, Oxford Heritage Cheddar Wheel   Update: February 3, 2026 (six days later) Photos in comments as I can’t add to the post I have taken some of your feedback into consideration from my last post. For those curious: my girlfriend is no longer in the picture. She cracked due to low risk tolerance, so I’ve decided to go all in on the business. I initially tried to return the wheel to the distributor to recoup some capital, thinking they’d have some pity. They were actually considering it until they came out to look at it in my truck. Apparently, the minor heat damage I caused to the paraffin wax while trying to open last week compromised the wheel which was already non refundable in the first place. Since I’m now stuck with a 140lb, 30,000+ asset, I had to pivot to asset protection and keep what I still have. I went out and bought a True TBB-2-HC 59” solid door back bar cooler, a professional digital temperature humidity controller, an industrial humidifier, a vacuum sealer, and ripening mats. Total cost was about 8.5k after taxes. Expensive, yes, but I wasn't going to let a30,000+$ investment depreciate value. The delivery was difficult. My apartment door is narrow, so I had to take the door entirely off the hinges and shimmy the cooler into the living room. I had maybe a millimeter of clearance between the frame and the unit. I was exhausted and excited so I started researching installation on my phone before putting my front door back on. That’s when my landlord walked in. Apparently he believes my door being off the hinges somehow removes my reasonable right to privacy. We already have a strained relationship because of my own use of the unit. He still holds a grudge because I was doing some light metal fabrication with a CONSUMER plasma cutter in my kitchen a few months ago He saw the cooler, the vacuum sealer, and the wheel of heritage cheese and started crying about commercial operations and fire hazards. I told him very clearly: The cheese is for personal consumption. There is nothing in my lease that limits how much dairy a tenant can own. The next morning, I found an eviction notice in my mailbox. it’s riddled with spelling errors as if written in a haste. I’m already preparing my defense for the Landlord Tenant Board AIO? I’m being evicted over dietary preferences as far as the landlord is concerned and I feel like this is an unlawful action EDIT: added a + to the valuation as it is possible to increase my margins depending on the quantities I sell in. Also please bear in my mind that I have sold ZERO cheese so I feel like this is premature action. Thank you Pictures of the cheese wheel and eviction form Image #1: the cheese wheel being covered with a squat, black, puck-shaped paraffin wax. On the top is marked with the handwritten date “2005-02-04”, and the whole thing is tightly wrapped with silver duct tape in a cross pattern, as if it was to be sealed or reinforcing it. Image #2: A printed retail receipt of the cheese wheel purchase from Oxford County, Ontario, Canada dated Jan 28, 2026, showing one 140-lb, 21-year aged heritage cheddar wheel for 18,400 CAD. (editor's note: close to $13,470 USD) Image #3: OOP explains this picture of a bevelling machine for a torch made out of scrap. It goes around round objects with a torch and cuts a bevel onto the edge. It’s made using a hand drill motor, dials from a broken welder, and gears from hand grinders. Image #4: Three paragraphs explains the measures of the cheese wheel. A 140-lb, 21-year-old cheddar wheel would be very large, dense, and compact, about 27 cm tall and 54 cm wide, often compared to a “cannonball” in solidity. It notes that it is much bigger and thicker than a typical Parmesan wheel, and that cheese of this age and weight is extremely rare due to long-term aging and dehydration. Image #5: A formal notice to end a tenancy from OOP's landlord. The visible text indicates reasons such as interfering with others, damage, or overcrowding, and notes that it is a notice that could lead to eviction. Much of the personal or specific information is redacted, but the document is clearly an official warning related to housing and possible eviction. Relevant Comments Commenter 1: I hope girlfriend got her $4k back. OOP (downvoted): Integrity is an asset that does not depreciate, unlike her savings which will be eaten by inflation. Commenter 2: Tell us more about this plasma cutter OOP: It plugs into a 120 volt wall socket and I can cut 3/8” thick steel extremely cleanly. OOP explains more about the cheese wheel and how it is being covered with OOP: It has a thick black paraffin wax covering it, underneath that is cheesecloth, and underneath the cheesecloth is the 21-year aged heritage cheddar Why is there duct tape on the cheese wheel? OOP: I damaged the paraffin wax trying to open it, so I put tape over it to keep it sealed Commenter 3: I can't find a cheese shop in Oxford County, ON that ends in the name "Fine Cheese." There's only a few cheese shops and it doesn't seem to be a large county. OOP: directly from the farm not a store front. I would not buy from a middle man Why isn't there the tax on the cheese wheel in Canada?

I found a camcorder in the woods of Japan
Hello, I am an American living in Sasebo, Japan. I spend a lot of my free time doing off-trail hiking in the woods and mountains around the Sasebo area, mainly to search for old bottles, ceramics, and relics from the WWII era and earlier. After getting off work today, I decided to revisit a spot I had explored before. When I first found this location last spring, it was getting dark and starting to rain, so I was unable to cover much ground. I figured I would return today and explore the area more thoroughly. On my previous visit, I found what appeared to be a partially collapsed mine portal. The site is on top of a mountain near my house in Shikamachi, Sasebo, an area that had several coal mines operating from the 1880s through the 1920s, and briefly again in the 1940s for obvious reasons. Because of that history, the mine itself was not surprising. What was surprising was that inside the portal were two tripod bags and a suitcase filled with cables. What I did not find last time was a camera to go with the cables and tripods. That changed today. Sitting about 50 feet from the mine portal was a camera bag. It was upside down, with the main compartment already unzipped. Inside was a neatly wrapped and completely dry Sony HDV Handycam HDR-FX1000, a camcorder that launched in late 2008. The bag also contained two unopened packs of film, a still-wrapped film case, and an empty film case. The film from the empty case was still inside the camera. There was also a neatly wrapped LED light in the bag. The only thing that appears to be missing is the NP-F series battery that would normally be attached to the back of the camera. I spent some more time searching the surrounding area and found the battery pack for the LED light about ten feet from the bag. I also found the rubber eyepiece for the camera about five feet away in a different direction. I took another look at the mine opening and removed a wooden structure that had been covering part of it. That is when I discovered another suitcase inside the hole, buried in dirt and rocks and completely stuck in place. I plan to return with a shovel to try to free it. I am now back home with the camera and all of the cables. I plugged the power cable into the camera, but unsurprisingly it did not work. Interestingly, the power cable was the only item in the bag that was not wrapped in plastic, and it showed clear signs of exposure, so I suspect it may be damaged. From what I can tell, the only way to remove the film from this camera is to power it on and open the motorized tape compartment. At this point, I am considering either buying a new battery and power cable or buying the proper equipment to play the tape and finding a safe way to remove it without risking damage. Unfortunately, it will be a little while before I can provide any answers about the contents of the film cartridge, assuming there is anything on it at all. I am hopeful that, at the very least, I will be able to clean up the camera and restore it to full working condition. Thank you for reading. I will post an update once I make progress. submitted by /u/OtotoxicT to r/creepy [link] [comments]

Is there a legal way I can stop my mother from driving again? She's a terrible driver and she's going to seriously hurt someone.
I am NOT the Original Poster. That is DangerousMotherCar. They posted in r/LegalAdviceUK Thanks to u/BakingGiraffeBakes for the rec. Do NOT comment on Original Posts. Latest update is 7 days old. Trigger Warning: injury from car accidents; hit and run; dangerous driving Mood Spoiler: incredibly frustrating and sad Editor's Note: This whole post talks about the "Motability" program in the UK. Here's a definition from Wikipedia: "Motability is a scheme in the United Kingdom intended to enable disabled people, their families and their carers to lease a new car, scooter or powered wheelchair. It is open to recipients of certain disability benefit, who exchange their weekly payments for a leased vehicle through the scheme. Insurance, vehicle excise duty and breakdown cover are all included, and customers of the scheme are eligible for a new car every three years." Link here. Original Post: October 28, 2025 My mother is a terrible, terrible driver. Whenever I was growing up she failed her driving test over twenty before she eventually scraped through. She has written off four cars in her life and had more accidents than I can remember. She used to just casually bump into curbs and hit other cars wing mirrors like it was a casual oops. There were probably 2-3 curb bumps on each drive home. She didn't understand how roundabouts work and still doesn't "get it." She has serious brain fog arising from one of her conditions. It got to the point where the cheapest car insurance available was almost £8,000 on those price comparison sites. This price was enough to take her off the road. However, she has recently qualified for enhanced rate and is browsing cars that she can get. From what she says they'll pay her whole insurance for her no questions asked. This is going to put her back on the road. (Something which she is incredibly excited about) I need to stop this. She's going to end up hurtingsomeone, if not herself. What can I actually do? I need an answer by Friday. That's when she's going to meet the people about trading her enhanced payment for a car and insurance. I've rang the non emergency police already but they've told me that unless she has had her licence revoked or has 12 points etc. there's nothing they can do. My sole deterrent against her driving was the expensive insurance. Is there some kind of legal way I can stop her going back on the roads? Can I get an emergency power of attorney or something? Some of OOP's Comments: LAUK_In_The_North: What's the medical condition that is causing her the problems with the driving? Unless she's not got capacity then there's no legal way that you yourself could block her from driving. OOP: Fibromyalgia, Asthma, COPD. She's a lifelong smoker so some of it is self-inflicted. It's the fibro that's causing some driving issues with brainfog. But she has ALWAYS been a bad driver long before she was ever diagnosed or suffering from fibro. I don't know why. She's just dangerously bad at it. She's careless. As I said, everything was under control until she got enhanced rate and they told her she could get a car with insurance fully covered. That was how I planned to manage her going forward. No one would insure her for less than £7.5k to £8k with her accident history and 4 write-offs. I'm 25, she's 55 now. She hasn't even driven in almost a decade. I'm freaking out about this. ProfessorYaffle1: There is no easy way. If her poor driving is due to a medical condition you could try raising your concerns with her G and asking them to report to the DVLA [Editor's note: Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency] (Check the DVLA website but my understanding is that they need a report from a doctor, to others) Have you spoke directly to your mum ? IF so, how blunt have you been? IS there a chance she would listen if you said what you have said here , that her driving is so bad it scares you and you think that there is a real risk of her killing herself or another person? [...] OOP: I've been blunt. I've sworn at her and cried at her after begging and being nice failed. She just isn't worried about it. I told her that she keeps bumping the curbs. She just shrugged it off and says, "It's just a wee bump." I told her that wasn't normal. She's adamant that she gets back on the road. She says she enjoys driving and misses it. I told her about her writing four cars off in 9 years. She says everyone has accidents. (All four of these were her fault. 3 of them were for roundabouts). I've tried telling her I'm terrified she's going to hurt herself or someone else. She just laughs it off or accuses me of taking away her freedom. She's extremely excited about getting the motorability car and she's been sending me various models all week. There's no getting through to her. I don't want to have to pick up all the broken pieces. I want to pre-empt this and stop her getting back on the road in the first place. I've tried calling the motorability people and explaining the situation to them. I warned them of what she was like in the hopes that they wouldn't allow her to do it. But they've said they bundle their car insurance through a 3rd party provider (I think it was Direct Line) and they aren't going to be stopping her from leasing a car through them. Pristine-Bet-5764: Unfortunately not, I think the conditions you listed don’t restrict her from driving. If she has full capacity, you will struggle doing anything legally OOP: Fucking hell... she's going to be the death of someone. When I was young she was averaging about 1 big accident every 3 months and a write-off every 2 years. She literally drove into a man once and he went over the bonnet. He was crossing at one of those pelican crossings. He just picked himself off, gave her an angry wave and left, but this is how bad she is. Editor's note: Pelican crossing definition here. Basically it's a type of pedestrian crossing. Update Post: January 28, 2026 (3 months later) Title: Update: My mum drove through two people on a pelican crossing and crashed into another car. I raised my concerns with Motability multiple times. I told them she wasn't fit to drive. I told them that she was basically uninsurable by private companies and that was keeping her off the road. Having spoken with police she drove through a pelican crossing at 50mph in a pelican crossing that has "20mph when lights are flashing." After hitting these two people she swerved lanes and hit an oncoming car, injuring another driver. She's put three people in hospital, excluding herself. She then tried to drive away from the scene before her car broke down about 30m down the road. Is there likely to be a criminal investigation or criminal component to this? Could she face prison time? My mother is being VERY cagey and secretive about what is going on. Is there any way I can stop her from getting another Motability car? I ended up screaming at her last night when I found her browsing motability cars again on her iPad. Some of OOP's Comments: Lanferelle: I'm confused as to how there's no police involvement already? OOP: There certainly could be more police action that I don't know of! I don't know what is going on though because my mother has a habit of hiding things and keeping secrets. She's hidden the fact she had £2000+ in unpaid bills a couple of years ago. She won't talk to me about things like this and on the rare occasions she does I fully expect her to lie to my face. "I've paid that bill already." "I've already paid your school for your Duke of Edinburgh trip. "(She didn't and I didn't get to do my Gold) She's a chronic liar. Substantial-Newt7809: A key compoent will be a medical assessment of your mother, as the sentencing guidelines are different for people with dementia or mental conditions. Unfortunately you've been very slim on details such as why was she uninsurable? Does she have mental capacity? Is her condition physical? You can call Motability and explain that she nearly killed multiple people and wrote off at least one car, that's probably going to stop her yeah. You can also call 101 at any time and ask for their advice as you believe someone unfit to drive who has had a near fatal accident and tried to flee the scene is trying to drive again. You should also report her to the DVLA right now today. Do you believe you mother has diminished capacity? OOP: She's had so many accidents that the cheapest quotations were something like £7,400 to £8000 if I recall correctly. This was a couple of years back. We're talking multiple cars written off. More serious accidents than I can count on my fingers. She treats bumping other cars as if it's a normal thing to happen 2-3 times on a drive. She has no dementia diagnosis or anything. She's 56 now. She argues that her brainfog from her fibromialgia impacts her driving sometimes. I warned Motabilkity about this on multiple phonecalls. Substantial-Newt7809: And has that condition been disclosed to the DVLA? I would hope so if motability are involved but who knows. [...] OOP: I think it has been. I DID catch her trying to cheapen her insurance by "forgetting" to declare it when she was applying on ComparetheMarket. Her condition is bad enough that she gets enhanced&enhanced on her daily living and mobility. OOP replies later to a different commenter: Alreayd informed both DVLA and Motability. Any remorse? She doesn't seem to have any remorse about what happened so far. The only emotion I have detected is annoyance that she doesn't have a car to drive right now. Any medications she is on: Yes. Tyotropium (I think it's an inhaler) Preglabin (for her fibromyalgia) There's maybe 2 others as well. I don't remember what they are though. She has COPD from smoking and fibromyalgia. Editor's note: A pharmacist chimed in and said preglabin can impact a person's ability to drive corbiewhite: It is distinctly possible your mother will be going to prison. Take a look at the sentencing guidelines for Causing serious injury by dangerous driving: https://sentencingcouncil.org.uk/guidelines/causing-serious-injury-by-dangerous-driving/ [...] At the very least she is likely to be banned from driving, potentially for life if the court deems it. OOP: I hope she goes away for a few years at least and a permanent driving ban. Permanent driving ban is what I want more than anything. I tried so hard to keep her off the roads for years. I reported her poor driving to everyone. The fact that private insurers wouldn't touch her was a blessing. The only reason she ever got back on the roads was because Motability gave her free insurance. OOP explains: When it comes to Motability she doesn't choose her insurance policy. I think motability does that on her behalf, which is how she got around the £8000 insurance premium she was being asked to pay by private insurers. From what I gathered, Motability insures their drivers in large batches (possibly through DirectLine) which means dangerous drivers like my mother can get free insurance and slip through the net. submitted by /u/LucyAriaRose to r/BestofRedditorUpdates [link] [comments]

Stuck in a foreign country, I’m not having fun anymore.
I’ve been in Vietnam since the beginning of February. It was originally supposed to be a 4-week family vacation. However my visa was issued incorrectly and now I’m fucked. My passport was seized by the immigration police because I have an overstay issue. It’s been 3 weeks and no answers. I went into the office today to try to talk to the officer that helped me, but the front desk guy fully refused. I asked for my passport, and he pretended not to understand me. I had SIL on the phone and he said he can’t help because he doesn’t have access to the file. He told me I had to go back to the hotel to wait for the call. So I’m just sitting here like an idiot. So frustrating. I’ve been joking a lot about how I get an extended vacation, I did this on purpose so I could stay near the beach without my family, of COURSE this would happen to me (the only non-Vietnamese person in the family) and blah blah, just so I could not be so depressed. But I’ll be honest I’m over it. The beach is just sand and water and overpriced alcohol. And I have a beach at home. I miss my family terribly. My Vietnamese translator probably ghosted me, my friends and family are back home trying to help to no avail, and I’m here by myself in a crappy hotel with rude judgy receptionists. At least the view is a view. Thanks for reading. (This sad girl dinner is from yesterday - hope that’s okay) Edit to add: This is spicy ramen. Sometimes you gotta switch it up, you know? Also, for the embassy questions. I already spoke to my country’s embassy/consulate and they are unable to assist. They have to abide by the country’s laws and cannot expedite or interfere with their investigation. If I ever figure out what they’re investigating, I’ll let you all know lol. I’m not a criminal or anything, just someone who got the dates mixed up. It’s a costly mistake. Edit 2: For people who think I’m lying about all this, here’s a post from 3 years ago where someone else had the same issue. And no, I don’t need money, perhaps maybe some good wine when all this is over. Edit 3: Canadian Govt Link The info below as an FYI. Overstaying your Vietnamese visa or having the wrong type of visa is a serious matter. You may be delayed from onward travel until a fine is paid. Check the visa validity and conditions carefully. Exit bans Vietnamese authorities may place an exit ban on certain individuals to prevent them from leaving the country. An exit ban can relate to investigations into: - an individual, their family or an employer - criminal and civil matters, such as business disputes or motor vehicle accidents - employment without a valid work permit - unpaid financial debts It is difficult to obtain information on bans from Vietnamese authorities. An exit ban can be requested by people involved in any of these circumstances. You may not be aware that authorities have placed an exit ban on you until you try to leave the country. Your passport may be seized until the case is fully investigated and settled. If you're unable to leave the country because of an exit ban, consult a lawyer and contact the closest office of the Government of Canada. Last edit: to clarify, overstaying is a crime in Vietnam. That is literally the only thing they are holding me here for. I am free to walk around and eat at restaurants and stuff. And lol at the beach comments, I don’t actually live near one but I drive to one two hours north of Toronto in the summer. Close enough I guess? I posted about this a few weeks ago. submitted by /u/RareStrawberry2020 to r/GirlDinnerDiaries [link] [comments]

AIO my girlfriend left me over a cheese wheel
I am NOT OOP. OOP is u/Jems138 Originally posted to r/AmIOverreacting AIO my girlfriend left me over a cheese wheel ---- Editor’s note: please be aware that OOP is from Canada, so any numbers you see in this post, they are based on Canadian currency Original Post: January 28, 2026 I (27M) and my girlfriend (26F) were saving for a house down payment. I work, and she is unemployed. I have saved 32,000 (editor’s note: about $23,594 USD) and she has saved 4,000 (editor’s note: close to $2,950 USD) so I feel like I bear the brunt of the financial decision making here. I was doing the Oxford county cheese trail, and found a “vault release”. They were selling a 140 pound wheel of 21 year old cheddar. It was aged using a traditional cloth bound method That’s practically extinct here in Canada, and with over 21 years it is extremely concentrated. 21 year old cheddar often sells for 120$ a pound (editor’s note: almost $90 USD). The farm was selling the entire wheel for 18,500$ (editor’s note: $13,640 USD) . If I cut it into 200g wedges and sell it at 60$ each (editor’s note: approximately $45 USD) I can make 38,000$ (editor’s note: about $28,016). I bought the cheese wheel, and brought it home in my truck. When I rolled it into our apartment at first she was excited, when I started to explain the financials and investment potential she turned sour. She didn’t yell, but expressed she wasn’t happy about how I spent MY share of our house savings. She is now staying with her parents. I think she’s overreacting because she doesn’t understand the Canadian housing market. Our savings is not enough for a down payment without a ridiculous mortgage, and we need to take these opportunities. AIO? Or am I the only one with ambition in our relationship? TLDR; my girlfriend is staying with her parents because I spent my share of our savings on a cheese wheel which can be cut into wedges and sold for a sizeable profit. Relevant / Top Comments Has OOP been able to slice and taste the cheese yet? OOP: I haven’t figured out how to open it yet, it’s covered in thick wax. It looks like a cannon ball. I have tried using a hair dryer and a knife but I can’t get into it. Commenter 1: Bud. You have no plan. You have no buyers. You are bad at math. You aren’t in the restaurant industry- you’re not connected to unload it while it’s still good. It’s perishable as soon as you break into it. You’ve also said in another comment that you’re trying to melt the wax. Which will absolutely ruin it. You’re fumbling around in the dark. You made a bad call. Like a seriously bad one. OOP: The cheese is no longer perishable. After 21 years all the moisture that would cause it to go bad has been replaced by calcium lactate crystals. Editor's note: the calculations mentioned might or might not be correct. Commenter 2: You say this cheese "often sells for $120 a pound", yet you actually paid $132 a pound for it. In that case it sounds to me like you overpaid and could struggle to turn a profit off it. Next you say: "If I cut it into 200g wedges and sell it at 60$ each I can make 38,000$." 200 grams is 7 ounces. You could get a maximum of 320, 7 ounces slices out of a 140 pound wheel, assuming zero waste. At $60 each that would get you $19,200, not $38,000. Your math is totally off for one thing, and I suspect you're going to struggle to find hundreds of customers willing to pay $60 for 7 ounces of cheese, so most likely you will lose money from this venture. That said, your money is yours to do what you want with, but if you have a partner you are planning a future with it's a bad idea to make big decisions like this without running it by them first. It breeds distrust, resentment, instability, etc. You're supposed to discuss things together and make decisions together. That's how partnerships work. In this case maybe your partner could have checked your math and explained how far off your numbers were and saved you from a costly mistake. YOR OOP: You are dividing the 140 pounds by 7 ounces but you are forgetting that there are 16 ounces in a pound. So if you divide the 140 by 7, the 7 goes into 14 twice. Commenter 3: You spent $18,500 on cheese with no actual plan on how to you’re going to recoup that outside of “Yeah I can totally sell this!!!” 140 pounds equals 63,500 grams. You’re talking about selling 200 gram wedges. That would require you to prepare, package and sell 317 units without any kind of market presence. Incidentally, your math is WAY off. Selling 317 wedges at $60 each comes to $19,050, which nets you a whopping $650 for what will surely be weeks of work on the completely off chance you manage to sell everything. Enjoy being the human equivalent of a Kraft Single. OOP: You are forgetting that there are 16 ounces in a pound so if you divide the 140 by the 7 ounce wedge , the 7 goes into 14 twice Commenter 4: You are insane if you think anyone is paying over a hundred bucks for a pound of freaking cheese. OOP: You can’t compare this heritage cheese to a grocery store commodity, the scarcity dictates the price. Commenter 5: Who is going to pay $120/lb for cheese that some random person is selling out of their apartment? If I was going to spend that much I'd want to know that it was stored and handed properly. And actually do you need a food safety license to do this kind of thing? OOP: 1) It’s not a commodity, it’s a heritage cheese and the value is determined by the scarcity. You can’t get this cheese from a regular retailer. 2) I have my Ontario food handlers certificate. Commenter 6: How in the hell are you going to find enough buyers for this niche cheese? Don't you need a license to sell food? What regulations do you have to follow? After you cut the cheese, how long will the wheel stay fresh? Can you store it appropriately to preserve it for that length of time? Even a supermarket would have a hard time going through an entire wheel of niche super expensive cheese. I don't think you thought this through enough for it to be a good idea. You would probably be lucky to recover the amount you paid to begin with, and are probably going to be skirting the law to sell it unless you are already licensed to do so Your girlfriend essentially moving out because of this seems extreme, but to be fair this seems like you really didn't think things through. OOP: Also the cheese will not spoil, after 21 years all the moisture has been replaced by calcium lactate crystals. Once the wax seal is broken I will be putting it in my chest freezer Commenter 7: How did she "save" $4,000 being unemployed? Unless it was from her unemployment payments, but he never mentioned she was getting paid unemployment. How much does unemployment even payout, total, anyways? Maybe it was Birthday/Christmas money from relatives. If you were to look at it as percentage saved to money "available" or in his case "earned" she saved way more than he did! Why was not contributing his fair share? OOP: She doesn’t have any overhead because I pay the bills, hence why I feel that It is acceptable for me to make financial decisions like investing in high yield assets like the traditional cloth bound, 21-year aged, Oxford Heritage Cheddar Wheel   Update: February 3, 2026 (six days later) Photos in comments as I can’t add to the post I have taken some of your feedback into consideration from my last post. For those curious: my girlfriend is no longer in the picture. She cracked due to low risk tolerance, so I’ve decided to go all in on the business. I initially tried to return the wheel to the distributor to recoup some capital, thinking they’d have some pity. They were actually considering it until they came out to look at it in my truck. Apparently, the minor heat damage I caused to the paraffin wax while trying to open last week compromised the wheel which was already non refundable in the first place. Since I’m now stuck with a 140lb, 30,000+ asset, I had to pivot to asset protection and keep what I still have. I went out and bought a True TBB-2-HC 59” solid door back bar cooler, a professional digital temperature humidity controller, an industrial humidifier, a vacuum sealer, and ripening mats. Total cost was about 8.5k after taxes. Expensive, yes, but I wasn't going to let a30,000+$ investment depreciate value. The delivery was difficult. My apartment door is narrow, so I had to take the door entirely off the hinges and shimmy the cooler into the living room. I had maybe a millimeter of clearance between the frame and the unit. I was exhausted and excited so I started researching installation on my phone before putting my front door back on. That’s when my landlord walked in. Apparently he believes my door being off the hinges somehow removes my reasonable right to privacy. We already have a strained relationship because of my own use of the unit. He still holds a grudge because I was doing some light metal fabrication with a CONSUMER plasma cutter in my kitchen a few months ago He saw the cooler, the vacuum sealer, and the wheel of heritage cheese and started crying about commercial operations and fire hazards. I told him very clearly: The cheese is for personal consumption. There is nothing in my lease that limits how much dairy a tenant can own. The next morning, I found an eviction notice in my mailbox. it’s riddled with spelling errors as if written in a haste. I’m already preparing my defense for the Landlord Tenant Board AIO? I’m being evicted over dietary preferences as far as the landlord is concerned and I feel like this is an unlawful action EDIT: added a + to the valuation as it is possible to increase my margins depending on the quantities I sell in. Also please bear in my mind that I have sold ZERO cheese so I feel like this is premature action. Thank you Pictures of the cheese wheel and eviction form Image #1: the cheese wheel being covered with a squat, black, puck-shaped paraffin wax. On the top is marked with the handwritten date “2005-02-04”, and the whole thing is tightly wrapped with silver duct tape in a cross pattern, as if it was to be sealed or reinforcing it. Image #2: A printed retail receipt of the cheese wheel purchase from Oxford County, Ontario, Canada dated Jan 28, 2026, showing one 140-lb, 21-year aged heritage cheddar wheel for 18,400 CAD. (editor's note: close to $13,470 USD) Image #3: OOP explains this picture of a bevelling machine for a torch made out of scrap. It goes around round objects with a torch and cuts a bevel onto the edge. It’s made using a hand drill motor, dials from a broken welder, and gears from hand grinders. Image #4: Three paragraphs explains the measures of the cheese wheel. A 140-lb, 21-year-old cheddar wheel would be very large, dense, and compact, about 27 cm tall and 54 cm wide, often compared to a “cannonball” in solidity. It notes that it is much bigger and thicker than a typical Parmesan wheel, and that cheese of this age and weight is extremely rare due to long-term aging and dehydration. Image #5: A formal notice to end a tenancy from OOP's landlord. The visible text indicates reasons such as interfering with others, damage, or overcrowding, and notes that it is a notice that could lead to eviction. Much of the personal or specific information is redacted, but the document is clearly an official warning related to housing and possible eviction. Relevant Comments Commenter 1: I hope girlfriend got her $4k back. OOP (downvoted): Integrity is an asset that does not depreciate, unlike her savings which will be eaten by inflation. Commenter 2: Tell us more about this plasma cutter OOP: It plugs into a 120 volt wall socket and I can cut 3/8” thick steel extremely cleanly. OOP explains more about the cheese wheel and how it is being covered with OOP: It has a thick black paraffin wax covering it, underneath that is cheesecloth, and underneath the cheesecloth is the 21-year aged heritage cheddar Why is there duct tape on the cheese wheel? OOP: I damaged the paraffin wax trying to open it, so I put tape over it to keep it sealed Commenter 3: I can't find a cheese shop in Oxford County, ON that ends in the name "Fine Cheese."

I found a camcorder in the woods of Japan
Hello, I am an American living in Sasebo, Japan. I spend a lot of my free time doing off-trail hiking in the woods and mountains around the Sasebo area, mainly to search for old bottles, ceramics, and relics from the WWII era and earlier. After getting off work today, I decided to revisit a spot I had explored before. When I first found this location last spring, it was getting dark and starting to rain, so I was unable to cover much ground. I figured I would return today and explore the area more thoroughly. On my previous visit, I found what appeared to be a partially collapsed mine portal. The site is on top of a mountain near my house in Shikamachi, Sasebo, an area that had several coal mines operating from the 1880s through the 1920s, and briefly again in the 1940s for obvious reasons. Because of that history, the mine itself was not surprising. What was surprising was that inside the portal were two tripod bags and a suitcase filled with cables. What I did not find last time was a camera to go with the cables and tripods. That changed today. Sitting about 50 feet from the mine portal was a camera bag. It was upside down, with the main compartment already unzipped. Inside was a neatly wrapped and completely dry Sony HDV Handycam HDR-FX1000, a camcorder that launched in late 2008. The bag also contained two unopened packs of film, a still-wrapped film case, and an empty film case. The film from the empty case was still inside the camera. There was also a neatly wrapped LED light in the bag. The only thing that appears to be missing is the NP-F series battery that would normally be attached to the back of the camera. I spent some more time searching the surrounding area and found the battery pack for the LED light about ten feet from the bag. I also found the rubber eyepiece for the camera about five feet away in a different direction. I took another look at the mine opening and removed a wooden structure that had been covering part of it. That is when I discovered another suitcase inside the hole, buried in dirt and rocks and completely stuck in place. I plan to return with a shovel to try to free it. I am now back home with the camera and all of the cables. I plugged the power cable into the camera, but unsurprisingly it did not work. Interestingly, the power cable was the only item in the bag that was not wrapped in plastic, and it showed clear signs of exposure, so I suspect it may be damaged. From what I can tell, the only way to remove the film from this camera is to power it on and open the motorized tape compartment. At this point, I am considering either buying a new battery and power cable or buying the proper equipment to play the tape and finding a safe way to remove it without risking damage. Unfortunately, it will be a little while before I can provide any answers about the contents of the film cartridge, assuming there is anything on it at all. I am hopeful that, at the very least, I will be able to clean up the camera and restore it to full working condition. Thank you for reading. I will post an update once I make progress. submitted by /u/OtotoxicT to r/creepy [link] [comments]

Is there a legal way I can stop my mother from driving again? She's a terrible driver and she's going to seriously hurt someone.
I am NOT the Original Poster. That is DangerousMotherCar. They posted in r/LegalAdviceUK Thanks to u/BakingGiraffeBakes for the rec. Do NOT comment on Original Posts. Latest update is 7 days old. Trigger Warning: injury from car accidents; hit and run; dangerous driving Mood Spoiler: incredibly frustrating and sad Editor's Note: This whole post talks about the "Motability" program in the UK. Here's a definition from Wikipedia: "Motability is a scheme in the United Kingdom intended to enable disabled people, their families and their carers to lease a new car, scooter or powered wheelchair. It is open to recipients of certain disability benefit, who exchange their weekly payments for a leased vehicle through the scheme. Insurance, vehicle excise duty and breakdown cover are all included, and customers of the scheme are eligible for a new car every three years." Link here. Original Post: October 28, 2025 My mother is a terrible, terrible driver. Whenever I was growing up she failed her driving test over twenty before she eventually scraped through. She has written off four cars in her life and had more accidents than I can remember. She used to just casually bump into curbs and hit other cars wing mirrors like it was a casual oops. There were probably 2-3 curb bumps on each drive home. She didn't understand how roundabouts work and still doesn't "get it." She has serious brain fog arising from one of her conditions. It got to the point where the cheapest car insurance available was almost £8,000 on those price comparison sites. This price was enough to take her off the road. However, she has recently qualified for enhanced rate and is browsing cars that she can get. From what she says they'll pay her whole insurance for her no questions asked. This is going to put her back on the road. (Something which she is incredibly excited about) I need to stop this. She's going to end up hurtingsomeone, if not herself. What can I actually do? I need an answer by Friday. That's when she's going to meet the people about trading her enhanced payment for a car and insurance. I've rang the non emergency police already but they've told me that unless she has had her licence revoked or has 12 points etc. there's nothing they can do. My sole deterrent against her driving was the expensive insurance. Is there some kind of legal way I can stop her going back on the roads? Can I get an emergency power of attorney or something? Some of OOP's Comments: LAUK_In_The_North: What's the medical condition that is causing her the problems with the driving? Unless she's not got capacity then there's no legal way that you yourself could block her from driving. OOP: Fibromyalgia, Asthma, COPD. She's a lifelong smoker so some of it is self-inflicted. It's the fibro that's causing some driving issues with brainfog. But she has ALWAYS been a bad driver long before she was ever diagnosed or suffering from fibro. I don't know why. She's just dangerously bad at it. She's careless. As I said, everything was under control until she got enhanced rate and they told her she could get a car with insurance fully covered. That was how I planned to manage her going forward. No one would insure her for less than £7.5k to £8k with her accident history and 4 write-offs. I'm 25, she's 55 now. She hasn't even driven in almost a decade. I'm freaking out about this. ProfessorYaffle1: There is no easy way. If her poor driving is due to a medical condition you could try raising your concerns with her G and asking them to report to the DVLA [Editor's note: Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency] (Check the DVLA website but my understanding is that they need a report from a doctor, to others) Have you spoke directly to your mum ? IF so, how blunt have you been? IS there a chance she would listen if you said what you have said here , that her driving is so bad it scares you and you think that there is a real risk of her killing herself or another person? [...] OOP: I've been blunt. I've sworn at her and cried at her after begging and being nice failed. She just isn't worried about it. I told her that she keeps bumping the curbs. She just shrugged it off and says, "It's just a wee bump." I told her that wasn't normal. She's adamant that she gets back on the road. She says she enjoys driving and misses it. I told her about her writing four cars off in 9 years. She says everyone has accidents. (All four of these were her fault. 3 of them were for roundabouts). I've tried telling her I'm terrified she's going to hurt herself or someone else. She just laughs it off or accuses me of taking away her freedom. She's extremely excited about getting the motorability car and she's been sending me various models all week. There's no getting through to her. I don't want to have to pick up all the broken pieces. I want to pre-empt this and stop her getting back on the road in the first place. I've tried calling the motorability people and explaining the situation to them. I warned them of what she was like in the hopes that they wouldn't allow her to do it. But they've said they bundle their car insurance through a 3rd party provider (I think it was Direct Line) and they aren't going to be stopping her from leasing a car through them. Pristine-Bet-5764: Unfortunately not, I think the conditions you listed don’t restrict her from driving. If she has full capacity, you will struggle doing anything legally OOP: Fucking hell... she's going to be the death of someone. When I was young she was averaging about 1 big accident every 3 months and a write-off every 2 years. She literally drove into a man once and he went over the bonnet. He was crossing at one of those pelican crossings. He just picked himself off, gave her an angry wave and left, but this is how bad she is. Editor's note: Pelican crossing definition here. Basically it's a type of pedestrian crossing. Update Post: January 28, 2026 (3 months later) Title: Update: My mum drove through two people on a pelican crossing and crashed into another car. I raised my concerns with Motability multiple times. I told them she wasn't fit to drive. I told them that she was basically uninsurable by private companies and that was keeping her off the road. Having spoken with police she drove through a pelican crossing at 50mph in a pelican crossing that has "20mph when lights are flashing." After hitting these two people she swerved lanes and hit an oncoming car, injuring another driver. She's put three people in hospital, excluding herself. She then tried to drive away from the scene before her car broke down about 30m down the road. Is there likely to be a criminal investigation or criminal component to this? Could she face prison time? My mother is being VERY cagey and secretive about what is going on. Is there any way I can stop her from getting another Motability car? I ended up screaming at her last night when I found her browsing motability cars again on her iPad. Some of OOP's Comments: Lanferelle: I'm confused as to how there's no police involvement already? OOP: There certainly could be more police action that I don't know of! I don't know what is going on though because my mother has a habit of hiding things and keeping secrets. She's hidden the fact she had £2000+ in unpaid bills a couple of years ago. She won't talk to me about things like this and on the rare occasions she does I fully expect her to lie to my face. "I've paid that bill already." "I've already paid your school for your Duke of Edinburgh trip. "(She didn't and I didn't get to do my Gold) She's a chronic liar. Substantial-Newt7809: A key compoent will be a medical assessment of your mother, as the sentencing guidelines are different for people with dementia or mental conditions. Unfortunately you've been very slim on details such as why was she uninsurable? Does she have mental capacity? Is her condition physical? You can call Motability and explain that she nearly killed multiple people and wrote off at least one car, that's probably going to stop her yeah. You can also call 101 at any time and ask for their advice as you believe someone unfit to drive who has had a near fatal accident and tried to flee the scene is trying to drive again. You should also report her to the DVLA right now today. Do you believe you mother has diminished capacity? OOP: She's had so many accidents that the cheapest quotations were something like £7,400 to £8000 if I recall correctly. This was a couple of years back. We're talking multiple cars written off. More serious accidents than I can count on my fingers. She treats bumping other cars as if it's a normal thing to happen 2-3 times on a drive. She has no dementia diagnosis or anything. She's 56 now. She argues that her brainfog from her fibromialgia impacts her driving sometimes. I warned Motabilkity about this on multiple phonecalls. Substantial-Newt7809: And has that condition been disclosed to the DVLA? I would hope so if motability are involved but who knows. [...] OOP: I think it has been. I DID catch her trying to cheapen her insurance by "forgetting" to declare it when she was applying on ComparetheMarket. Her condition is bad enough that she gets enhanced&enhanced on her daily living and mobility. OOP replies later to a different commenter: Alreayd informed both DVLA and Motability. Any remorse? She doesn't seem to have any remorse about what happened so far. The only emotion I have detected is annoyance that she doesn't have a car to drive right now. Any medications she is on: Yes. Tyotropium (I think it's an inhaler) Preglabin (for her fibromyalgia) There's maybe 2 others as well. I don't remember what they are though. She has COPD from smoking and fibromyalgia. Editor's note: A pharmacist chimed in and said preglabin can impact a person's ability to drive corbiewhite: It is distinctly possible your mother will be going to prison. Take a look at the sentencing guidelines for Causing serious injury by dangerous driving: https://sentencingcouncil.org.uk/guidelines/causing-serious-injury-by-dangerous-driving/ [...] At the very least she is likely to be banned from driving, potentially for life if the court deems it. OOP: I hope she goes away for a few years at least and a permanent driving ban. Permanent driving ban is what I want more than anything. I tried so hard to keep her off the roads for years. I reported her poor driving to everyone. The fact that private insurers wouldn't touch her was a blessing. The only reason she ever got back on the roads was because Motability gave her free insurance. OOP explains: When it comes to Motability she doesn't choose her insurance policy. I think motability does that on her behalf, which is how she got around the £8000 insurance premium she was being asked to pay by private insurers. From what I gathered, Motability insures their drivers in large batches (possibly through DirectLine) which means dangerous drivers like my mother can get free insurance and slip through the net. submitted by /u/LucyAriaRose to r/BestofRedditorUpdates [link] [comments]

AIO for a company insulting me when I applied?
Hello people of Reddit! I’m hoping you all can cool off my steaming head with this specific company I applied at. So for context. I applied with this company Wednesday and they got back to me on Friday at 5:19PM. Which in my case is past any work hours and into the weekend where I log off completely. (As do many other companies do as well.) You can see I promptly responded on Monday at 7:00AM, and heard nothing. I decided to wait 2 days and reach out again and ask if they are still considering me for the role. To where he proceeded to insult me about being lazy for not… “showing up” to an interview. Which mind you they have not once reached out to me via call/text/message. I have a screenshot of my email folder as the last slide as proof. I haven’t heard a single thing from them since I applied. So I decided to respond with a (yes I know) backhanded response. Letting them know that no one has contacted me for an interview. And I’m sure you all can see how it escalated from there. So I ask AIO for thinking that these guys were completely out of line and unprofessional? They called me names and insulted me, which I know I did back but. I’m a bit of a hot head my self lol. Not trying to justify what I did but then he also attempted to call my current employer and say god knows what. Thankfully I work for a place that values my privacy and gave them no mention of my name. Which is where he thinks I “lied” on my application. Is there anything I can do here? I couldn’t find them on the BBB or anything as such. One way to ruin my Friday lol. Let me know what you all think. submitted by /u/Marksifyy to r/AmIOverreacting [link] [comments]

Dear German motor home tourists, a polite rant from Norway
Dear German motorhome tourists, I hope you're enjoying your visit to Norway. I have a question regarding your driving habits: when you drive at 50-60 km/h in 80-/90 zones and then suddenly speed up when someone tries to overtake you, do you realize how this affects local drivers? It can be quite challenging and even dangerous for those of us who use these roads regularly. Could you please be more mindful of this? Your cooperation would be greatly appreciated. Enjoy your stay!
