I offered a helping hand at Target today. Got zero appreciation. (163 pts)
My wife and I were walking through Target when an employee in front of us dropped a mannequin’s arm. Since her hands were full holding the rest of the mannequin, she couldn't bend down to pick it up. Naturally, I picked it up, held it out to her, and said, "Here, let me give you a hand." She took it in total silence. My wife just stared at me.

A man wants to put money in a Swiss bank (973 pts)
"How much do you want to deposit?" asks the bank employee. Whispers the man, "Three million." "You can speak up," says the bank clerk. "In Switzerland, poverty is not a disgrace."

Top Comments:

[264 pts] If you're a Swiss citizen, you can open a bank account and deposit as little as you want. If you're a foreign citizen, 3 millions might be a tad bit short. It's high enough to raise all the questions about its origin, but not high enough to answer them quickly.

Top Comments:

[14 pts] What sort of irrational nonsense is being posted on here now?!
[2 pts] Lets take 1 minute for the Engineers 🤫
[1 pts] Fun fact, in 1668, an early draft of the metric system proposed defining 1 meter as the length of a pendulum that takes exactly 1 second to swing from one side to the other (a half-period of 1 second)**.** The formula for the time period of a pendulum is `T = 2 * pi * sqrt(L / g)` If you plug in a period of T = 2 seconds and a length of L= 1 meter, the equation simplifies like `T = 2*pi*sqrt(L/g) --> 2 = 2*pi*sqrt(1/g) --> 1 = pi*sqrt(1/g) --> 1 = pi/sqrt(g) --> sqrt(g) = pi` The AcadƩmie des Sciences eventually decided to define the meter based on the circumference of the Earth instead, because the local gravitational force varies slightly across the planet, so the meter would be inconsistent. But the two definitions were close enough in length that sqrt(g) remains a close approximation of pi. No frickin' clue why e is in this picture though.

driveFasterProjectManager (6139 pts)

Top Comments:

[687 pts] I just love it when they make a sale based on features that don't exist and then act like it shouldn't be a big deal to implement them.
[207 pts] When Sales says, ā€œThis will take five minutes,ā€ the Senior Developer can already see the end of the project šŸ˜‚
[155 pts] This is completely erroneous. Sales has already promised the client that the software already does it, and now Dev has 3 business days to implement it before the client discovers Sales lied - and management will blame Dev if that happens. At least that's how it worked everywhere I worked. So glad I'm not a (professional) programmer anymore!

Top Comments:

[1 pts] OP (Zu_Qarnine) sent the following text as an explanation why they posted this here: --- > I'd like to know what is the bad math all about and also what does it have to do with the image of the car ---
[342 pts] Ok SO. I found the original post and: the photo of the car isn't meant to be so pixelated, it just happened when the image was screenshot and then shared over and over. In the original photo the license plate reads: "AH 498 SI." The original post is also in Spanish and so, when you translate the entire original joke it reads: \-buddy, how much is 250 + 248? \-500? \-no no, think well \- (License) Ah, 498, yes.

Petah , what was the question? (4285 pts)
And why did the interview take an unexpected turn?

Top Comments:

[1 pts] u/Sure_Kangaroo1863, your post does belong here!
[2014 pts] The interviewer asked them if acting in space movies was nicer because then they could be in socks all day instead of wearing shoes, iirc. They proceeded to talk about how nice it was to not wear shoes. And then went on to talk about other more comfy clothes. ETA: I think the casualness of the question took them by surprise. And they had fun answering the question. Question was not what they would have expected from a usual interview.
[579 pts] The [question ](https://youtu.be/Ox5_jc3LGdE?t=151)was "Is filming a movie about space great because you get to wear socks all the time?" And they both lose it because they never actively realised EDIT: Added timestamp to link

[2228 pts] Hey, it's Bart Simpson here. The joke is that the achievement is only half of a saying, implying that you are going to have to fight a bigger, more difficult boss before long. This will then give you the last half of the saying as an achievement
[425 pts] Achievement implies theres a second harder achievement that would complete the phrase ā€œā€¦the harder they fallā€ This could either mean the boss is not really dead or there’s an even bigger boss (or alternative version) you still have to fight

[11 pts] I think you had a cool idea but it didn’t get delivered right. You need to make the pink thing feel like an actual object instead of a random blob in a void, it’s not subverting any expectations if an abstract object becomes a cape. Maybe like an eviction notice gets reused into a cape?
