  • They did during the pandemic, and then they rolled it back. There were a LOT of cyber security issues. I think people should be able to work from home, but we were dealing with a bunch of personal data. If we fuck anything to the entire company and everyone who needs them is fucked.

  • They'll pay for your license and training! I worked in the auto department, and we were licensed in personal lines. Technically, we can sell home, boat, pet, etc... It's pretty decent. It's your standard call center environment. Good benefits, decent pay, okay leave, and hours are pretty flexible due to hours of operation. There's a strict word tree you follow and a series of resources. I worked at corporate, though. I never touched sales or claims. They paid more, but it seemed a lot more soul sucking, IMO. The most stressful thing was dealing with payments.

    If you show a good history of customer service, they'll probably hire you and pay for your license.

    I'm not sure which department would require that specific license. Casualty was wrapped up pretty well in personal lines, but that's for CA corporate. In customer service, we mostly helped people get insurance at car dealerships, helped people process payments, and answered questions. Sorry if this is the wrong state. That's a big thing as well. CA license carries over well for a lot of states.

  • When I worked at Geico, we'd say, "Hi thank you for calling Geico, this is *******, your licensed professional. How can I help?"

    One time the southern slipped out, and I just said, "Howd'y this is *****.", and stopped talking.

    I didn't even realize it until my boss started laughing at me and played the recording.

  • That's my definition as well. I've drawn different conclusions, though. Hedonism, nihmism, etc... they've all gotten a bad name because of Edge lords who burn out. You don't have to be over consumeristic or do copious amounts of drugs. That would go AGAINST hedonism because you'll be unable to pursue pleasure in the future. It doesn't have to be an immediate payoff.

    You're upset with people who are short-sighted, not hedonists. Those things aren't exclusive, but I think you catch my drift.

  • Good story

  • What do you have against hedonists? I think it's pretty bad ass to be happy regardless of how others judge you.

  • Like a certain alien species from The Xeelee Sequence?

    Edit: woops wrong series. Does anyone know another series with an advanced alien civilization that sends themselves back in time to give birth to themselves? It's right before the heat death of the universe due to another alien species that lives in stars.
