TidBit Thread.....

Post by Dragon_Cooler »

I thought it might be cool to start a thread regarding tidbits, little things that might help ya through life. We are talking information that might not be known and would be nice to know. This is strictly NON COMPUTER RELATED!!! Meaning no tips on computer stuff. Heck we will leave out electronics all together. No junk posts, only your tidbits, NO COMMENTS ABOUT OTHER PEOPLES POSTS!. You can add a little comment about your own as to why you think it helps or is worthy. Please try not to add common stuff like "you can use coca-cola to help clean things around the house" I will go ahead and start......


At least in Texas.. The extra charge added to your court costs means the judge doesnt like you or you have made him/her mad. I.E. a $150.89 means you are on a crap list compared to someone who has a $150.00 charge. This will let other judges know if you have been trouble or not.

I really like the idea of this thread, but can't really think of anything worthwhile to comment, so I'll just say this:

Don't get into photography in a big way unless you are prepared to spend lots of money :finga:

I have one, but it is "technology related"...kinda.

With most cellphone carriers, if you call someone and get their voicemail, you can press '1' to let you start recording your message immediately.

Learned this from a professor that was a manager at Walmart

According to Walmart's Policies, the only time that you're allowed to be stopped at the door is if an employee sees you pocket something and doesn't break line of sight with you until you leave the store. Other than that, they aren't supposed to stop you and spend half an hour going through your crap even if the alarm went off as you're walking out the door.

i think thats more or less innocent customers were gettin tagged(the majority of it) and/or customers brandishing a weapon or assaulting the employee(havent heard vice versa yet)...I know I 've seen a bit of that when I worked at Wal-Fart a few years back..hell there was even a stabbing at wal-mart for an xbox 360 a few years back and just the other day over a parking spot..don't mess with the customers lol (although they are not really in the right either for being an a$$hole)..i bet alot of policies changed when that violence went up..crazy ass people
