timothy get (@TimothyGet) reportedBack in the day, when I was doing mid-tier / database web work, Indeed and the job boards, craigslist where the go-to places to get employed. When I lived in Orlando, I could walk downtown and knock on doors and get a coding job within a week. (usually a day) Somehow, a week became months....and now nothing. No problem... However , something else has changed. "The Corporate Environment" ? I frankly DO NOT WANT TO WORK FOR SUCH ******** EVER AGAIN. I will build my own business, even though I do not like "business" and work for God and His kingdom. This is rant is courtesy of my mailbox in-feed with lots of Indeed and Linked In nothing burgers...and do not get me started on the "Hello, Sar...This is SuryaPravda Oopta, I share this job with you that is nowhere in your resume" Then there was this dream job interview and it went well until the woman wet herself asking me, "So t What do you think about DIVERSITY!!!!!" This is a long way of saying that "Our Economy" is not here anymore. #DNWTWFSAEA

marqix ☆ (@fwmarqix) reportedBought a bike off Craigslist in Tokyo. ¥8,000. Good deal. Seller was a 20 something guy. Seemed rushed. Him: It's a great bike. No problems. Me: Why selling? Him: Moving back to Osaka. Seemed legit. Week 2: I'm riding it and someone STOPS me on the street. Stranger: WHERE DID YOU GET THAT BIKE? Me: I bought it. Why? Stranger: That's MY bike. It was stolen six months ago. Me: No, I have a receipt.. Stranger: Check the serial number. I checked. It matched his police report. Me: Oh my god. I bought a stolen bike. Stranger: I'm calling the police. Me: Wait! I didn't know! I have the seller's info.. We called the cops. They took the bike as evidence. I was out ¥8,000 and had no bike. Week 3: Police called. Officer: We arrested the seller. He stole 14 bikes. Me: Can I get my money back? Officer: He already spent it. Me: So I'm just... screwed? Officer: Essentially, yes. I was pissed. But fine. Lesson learned. Month 2: I get a random package. Inside: ¥8,000 cash and a note. "Sorry I bought your stolen bike. Here's the money you lost. - The original owner" Me: WHAT. I tried to find him to return it. Cops: We can't give out his information. Me: But he sent me money! Cops: That's his choice. I felt awful keeping it. So I donated ¥8,000 to a charity for bike theft prevention. Month 4: I get another package. Different handwriting. Inside: A photo of the charity donation with a note. "I'm the guy who stole your bike. I got out on parole. Saw what you did with the money. I'm sorry. Here's ¥10,000. I got a job. Trying to make things right." Me: THIS IS THE STRANGEST REDEMPTION ARC. I didn't know what to do. So I bought a new bike. ¥10,000. Left the receipt and ¥2,000 change at the police station with a note: "For the thief. Use the change for lunch. You're doing good." Month 6: Police called. Officer: The thief wants to meet you. Me: Uh... is that safe? Officer: He has something to say. We met at a café. Police supervised. Thief: I'm sorry I stole from you. Me: You didn't steal from me. You stole from the other guy. Thief: I stole your money when you bought it. Me: I mean... yeah. Fair. Thief: I'm trying to pay back everyone I stole from. Me: That's... good? Thief: You're number 4 out of 14. Me: You're tracking this? Thief: shows spreadsheet, I have 10 more people to find. Me: This is weirdly organized for a criminal. Thief: I'm a FORMER criminal. We're friends now. He finished paying everyone back last month. I bought him a beer. He bought me a bike helmet. Crime is weird in Japan.

Danielle Dyer (@danielle4657) reportedI'm pretty positive my sister was the one that attempted to organize the institutionalization at UNM's ER on May 10th 2025 I know what the staging of the ER is - it's like thing they try to pressure patients to go to because you have such little rights there for inquiry / access to patient information related to the exam I was screaming outside of that Roswell, NM hotel on May 10th 2025 as my dad put me into the car - begging him not to take me saying I had been being made to go insane all day in Roswell was agitators, crazy makers and my dad saying to me that I was just having issues still because I had told him about the ***** trafficking thing, same with my mom both of them still not believing me about it believing he was some craigslist kind of scammer or something

Marcus M. Long (@Ol_Marcus) reportedAlso finally threw out an old TV set that I bought over 20 years ago off Craigslist. In my mid 30's I carried it into the house with no problem. At 57, I almost gave out carrying it to the curb.

tp53 🍊🥕🦪🥩🥛☕ (@tp53guardian) reported@Rationale_Male No it's not. I used to run with a whole gaggle of knuckleheads from poor and broken homes. 1 is in prison. The cousins he was raised with are both dead. Some are alcoholics and burnouts who are 30 to 40 years old still living with their parents. The ones that are ok are divorced, sometimes 2x over, or living lives of service doing charity work for troubled kids through churches. The few determiners between me and everyone else I grew up with is slightly more money ( I was lower to middle middle class) and the fact I had a two parent home. Where as most of my friends grew up in poverty , raised by single moms , or an aunt in one case. Or by an alcoholic step mom in another case. I wouldn't trade my life with anyone I was friends with. I wouldn't trade the outcomes or lessons learned between me and them either And given the account I'm replying to, a couple in some instances may have attracted more women when they were 15. But not by the time I was in my 20s , and I'm the one who ended up in a stable marriage with a kid that excels. At best they ended up with baby mamas with kids that curse them out in the grocery store. If they got a woman or a kid at all There's nothing glorious or glamorous about struggling as a youth 1 out of 100 learns amazing lessons from it. Most get trampled by the experience and never exceed the adults that raised them Come back and talk when you know girls that went into porn and it just seemed like a no duh bc her mom sold her *** on Craigslist. Or when your buddy who's mom was a ****** and dad was a unknown John , mom died so Grandma took him in. Grandma dies so he becomes a foster kid . Aunt figures she can get social security check so she brings him in but soon as he's old enough to work odd jobs he has to buy his own toilet paper, toothpaste and grew up using water with cereal bc he wasn't allowed to touch the milk used from his aunt, cousins and whatever man she was sleeping with . He ended up in juvie and later as an adult . prison . Or the twins who were raised my mom and daddy number 3 with 4 other siblings who got beat by their sherrif step father Or the dentists child who got divorced and dentist won custody. Remarried. Dentist gets nailed for dealing drugs. Step mom raisj the child and she's passed out on the couch every night from drinking Or or or..I could write. A book of stories. The fights. The theft rings. The drugs at 13 and 14 years old that most people don't even get offered until they're in college , at best. My childhood first girlfriend was raw dawged ********** at a house party 3 houses from where I grew up. About 2 to 3 months after we broke up. I had to turn down ' my turn'. I was barely 14. She was 13. So yeah. Uh. **** kids struggling. A whole lot of other **** comes along with being raised by struggling parents who are trying to do it alone , they're over worked and come home exhausted and stressed to the point they hide in a bottle or zone out in front of TV while their kids run around tearing down the world.

FAFO Farms (@FAFOFarmsTX) reportedSad news the calf did not make it. We brought him inside at 7pm because he could no longer stand. We gave him a second round of electrolytes for the day. 20 minutes later he was starting to move his legs and head and his breathing was getting fuller. After getting the twins down to sleep came back out at 930pm to him no longer moving or breathing. The people who sold us him also have not responded since I reached out earlier today. This is heart breaking and stressful. We are now 3 for 3 in getting cows/calfs that are not healthy through craigslist.

𐡀 (@Xyleniqq) reportedThere's a deli two blocks from my office. I've been going there for 12 years. I order the same thing every time. Turkey, provolone, lettuce, tomato, mustard, on rye. Today, the guy behind the counter looked at me. Guy: Can I ask you something? Me: Sure. Guy: Why do you always order this sandwich? Me: Because I like it. Guy: You're the only person who's ever ordered it. Me: What? Guy: In 30 years. You're the only one. Me: How is that possible? Guy: I don't know. But we keep rye bread in stock just for you. Me: Just for me? Guy: Yeah. I didn't know what to say. Me: I can order something else. Guy: No. Don't. We like the consistency. Now I feel obligated to order it forever. --- ## 9. A guy on Craigslist paid me $40 to attend his improv show and heckle him. It went horribly wrong. I needed $40. I saw an ad on Craigslist. "Need someone to heckle me during my improv show. $40. Must be loud." I responded. The guy, Tyler, called me. Tyler: You comfortable yelling in public? Me: Sure. Tyler: Great. Just show up. Sit in the back. When I point at you, yell something mean. Me: Like what? Tyler: Doesn't matter. Just be loud. I showed up. Small theater. Maybe 30 people. Tyler's improv group performed. Fifteen minutes in, Tyler pointed at me. I yelled: You suck! The audience laughed. Tyler: Oh yeah? You think you can do better? Me: Yeah! Tyler: Come up here then! I didn't expect that. Tyler: Come on! Let's see what you got! The audience started chanting. I walked on stage. Tyler handed me a prop. Tyler: You're a detective. I'm a criminal. Go. I froze. I had no idea what to do. Tyler: Come on, detective. Interrogate me. Me: Uh. Where were you on the night of... the thing? The audience laughed. Tyler: What thing? Me: The... crime thing. I was bombing. But people were laughing. Tyler: You're terrible at this! Me: I know! I stayed on stage for ten minutes. At the end, Tyler handed me $60. Tyler: You were hilarious. Me: I thought I was supposed to heckle you. Tyler: You were better as a participant. He asked me to come back next week. I said no. But I'm thinking about it.

CAPT Shuyan Huang MD (@CptHuang) reportedCaution with this #goatmilk lady - i ain't offering the #refundpolicy when y'all get into trouble. 1) false pretenses 2) the cyberstalking via craiglist 3) told me that she wanted me to sign some papers; the next day, it was probably a DEA staff. [?White male in blue SUV or something?]

Larry M Jr (@LarryMJr51501) reportedThe alternative is to find an obscured listing on Craigslist or Facebook or drive down industrial roads looking for handmade rental signs. I'm not trying to play 6D chess just to replace the assets I already have.

Arben Prifti (@ArbenPriftiGoat) reportedHello. I am Arben. I have a terrible track record online. Tried to sell a bunch of stuff on Craigslist. Several women offered me their body in lieu of cash. Joined a dating site. All responses were fetish chicks. I didn’t know that adult women like to pretend to be babies. It was weird. Been on x for about 1-2 years. So far, so good.

𝕮 (@XCzsnx) reportedMy business partner and I built the taco truck from a used food trailer we found on Craigslist, painted it ourselves in his driveway over a weekend, split every cost down to the propane tanks. He called me on a Sunday to say he'd bought a second truck, said it like an update, not a question, said he'd already lined up a new logo and a new name for it, one that didn't include mine anywhere. I asked whose name was on the LLC for the new one. He said just his, said it was "cleaner that way for taxes." I didn't argue on the phone. I went by the commissary kitchen we shared the next morning and looked at the schedule board, saw our regular Thursday spot at the farmers market now listed under the new truck's name, our truck moved to a Tuesday slot near the highway nobody requests. He was there loading ice when I walked in. He said, "I figured you'd rather keep things simple, focus on the original truck, not stretch yourself thin." I told him that wasn't his decision to make for me. He shrugged, said the market coordinators had already approved the swap, nothing to be done about it now. I called the coordinator myself that afternoon, said I had questions about the vendor agreement, asked her to email me a copy of what he'd submitted. It's sitting in my inbox now, unopened, the subject line just "RE: Vendor Info Request." I keep meaning to read it between shifts, and keep finding a reason not to.

🇺🇸🇺🇸Ritch Ason🇺🇸🇺🇸 (@ElonMusky_Fish) reported@Neutral_OC This is what home warranty gets you. Home warranties are a ******* scam. They send out the bottom of the barrel technicians from random companies. They send out a guy from Craigslist and after he doesn't fix your problem and charges you money you will never see him again.

Marcia Goldstein (@robbiemay33) reported@SacAppraiser I don’t understand. So via Airbnb no problem; via Craigslist scam. But why did it matter if the sign was outside? Because scammed guests would arrive and realize they’d not be getting in?
