Kerry, chime in! Wow, this was an insane read. I’m glad the guy got justice served. What a horrible struggle and that sucks that multiple people were scarred in multiple ways. Did you not go to a hospital after?!

Your boss’s coverage in the aftermath was also great, given how that all probably happened in just 5 minutes or so. With stories like this, I now feel like there could be a /c/Bouncers community on here. I’m glad no one got a TBI or was permanently paralyzed; either of those would have probably been the worst outcome (apart from just straight-up dying, needless to say). I wonder how many bouncers now have pepper spray or other self-defense tools.

I’d contract that to “w’outershins.”

It may help to know that back in high school I had started power lifting, and had been picking up 400lb people out of showers for a good while at this point. I was a big ol boy lol.

Wow, that’s quite the detail. I now think those dementia patients had cooperated simply because of your size, haha. You have such a colorful history!

one of whom later on saved my life a few times

I’m kinda morbidly curious about these…

Interesting, thanks for the detailed explanation. Are you also using this role as a stepping stone to a target career, out of curiosity?

I shave my head, so I was expecting them to take some beard hair, but apparently their policy is to do underarms if that’s the case.

Didn’t know that! I guess it’s to address fully clean-shaven people…

Inspiring. Nothing beats personal touch.

That is one awesome boss you’ve got!!

True, I’m not saying to go nuts on it at all! All I’m saying is that, relative to alcohol or other actually bad drugs, it’s incredibly mild on average. Same with psilocybin; these two consistently top charts in relative drug safety. All other mind-altering substances are more dangerous (again, on average).

Cool! What role is that now?

I don’t know why I did that

It could have potentially put pressure on them versus imaginary competition, haha, though perhaps they desperately needed to hire anyway.

So you worked at NASA? Either way, that sounds so cool!

asked if they could get me a name of a hiring manager

Nothing beats going personal!

Copypasting my answer from the previous thread

Do you mean the one that I linked? I’m still getting used to Lemmy and am unable to access any content there. How were you able to do this, or was it just your own comment that still showed in your account history that you were able to retrieve?

wanting all sorts of degrees

Employers’ postings tend to overshoot, it seems, yeah.

Hopefully you two get along if your presence overlaps over there!

How many applications did you wade through between the two, out of curiosity?

It appears to be 0.1mg/kg of body weight too avoid coumarin overdose (which is much stronger in Cassia than ceylon cinnamon), which is toxic to the liver: https://ovidsp.dc2.ovid.com/ovid-new-a/ovidweb.cgi?T=JS&PAGE=fulltext&D=ovft&AN=01445481-201002000-00007&NEWS=N&CSC=Y&CHANNEL=PubMed

Huh, I didn’t realize that All including all federated communities must be a Thunder-specific feature.

So? My point still stands that it’s one of the safest mind-altering substances in the world, overdose-wise.

Cinnamon can cause permanent damage in high doses.

Other than that and the others mentioned here, probably just old, rotting ones would be bad.

… except cannabis, presuming you don’t have a genetic disposition to schizophrenia. Nearly no one has ever died of a marijuana overdose. Compare that to alcohol (or, indeed, water). In fact, the only reason I say “nearly” is just in case; its safety has been known for a long time.

This is in fact one of the core reasons why I finally stopped being a straightedge and accepted taking it. (Though smoking is still a no-no and the worst way to experience anything, basically.)

He’s jokingly referring to their shopping carts.

What? No, use “All” to browse through federated instances and then subscribe to any interesting communities across the whole Fediverse. Then stick to the “subscribed” feed and only occasionally recheck “All” if you’re bored and looking for new communities with none in particular; otherwise, run searches for them.
