'Did they think they were gonna make money from their wedding?': Newlyweds "devastated" after only gaining $3k from wedding instead of the $10k they expected

By cheezburger.com
Published On :: Wed, 13 Nov 2024 08:00:00 -0800

This newly-married couple is going to be in a world of debt after throwing a lavish wedding that didn't exactly pay off. 

Weddings these days are a bit different than they were 50 years ago. Besides the obvious changes in decorum and decoration, there's a whole new tradition around gift-giving. Many couples choose to live together before marriage these days, which can be quite beneficial. You can learn if you are compatible with someone before legally declaring it forever. However, if you live with someone for a few years before marriage, you'll have to buy everything for your house in the meantime. In the past, couples were just starting out, and would move in together after marrying. Their gifts would often include cookware, baby items, furniture, or other presents designed to start a new couple off in their home. 

Nowadays, you may as well give the newlyweds some cash. They probably have a lot of furniture and pots and pans already. But they might be going severely into debt to pull off their dream wedding, just like the couple here. It's an eye-opening read, as shared by @kaylajohnsonatl. Commenters debated the state of gift-giving these days–check it all out below. 

After that, this interviewer lamented that "[It] is just really tacky" after noticing that a job candidate did something that gave him pause.

New hire gets fired 10 minutes into their shift after boss claims they were ‘not being proactive’, coworker reveals it was not the first time this happened: ‘I was the 4th person they hired’

By cheezburger.com
Published On :: Wed, 13 Nov 2024 10:00:00 -0800

Everyone remembers their first real job, the place that kickstarted their career and made them who they are today. And since everyone remembers that experience, no matter how much time passed, it shouldn't be hard to be nice to those who are just starting out.

If every boss would recall their first week at their job, they would remember how stressful it is to prove themselves, and they would remember how important it is to have the right guidance, to have someone who can train you and help you get the ropes of the job on those first days. 

However, instead of providing that guidance to new hires, bosses insist on doing the exact opposite, while some go as far as firing people if they don't show the right 'initiative' on their first days. Much like the boss in this Reddit story, who fired their new hire 10 minutes into the shift simply because they thought it would be wise to wait for instructions, and not act on their own.

Keep scrolling to read the full story, and let us know in the comments down below what you think of the situation. After you are done, check out this story of a parking dispute between two store owners.

By www.joomlaworks.net
Published On :: Mon, 14 Sep 2020 20:28:29 +0300


A plugin for supporting K2 in sh404SEF.

Use the plugin to configure K2 URLs when using sh404SEF in a multitude of options.

Unlike the previous built-in implementation for sh404SEF, this new plugin provides new URL manipulation options and it has dual compatibility with K2 versions 2.7.0+ as well as the upcoming K2 version 3.

The plugin has been successfully tested with sh404SEF versions 4.6.x in Joomla 2.5 and 3.x.

Requirements

  • K2 v2.7.0 or newer
  • sh404SEF v4.6.x or newer
  • Joomla 2.5 or 3.x

Installation

  • Make sure you meet the requirements above and that K2 and sh404SEF are already present on your Joomla installation.
  • Upload the latest version of the plugin on your Joomla site.
  • Locate the plugin under the "sh404SEF ext plugins" group in the Joomla Plugin Manager.
  • Click the plugin name to edit its settings - most options are pretty self explanatory.
  • Make sure the plugin is enabled and hit "Save & Close" after you adjust settings as you see fit.
  • Clean your sh404SEF URLs cache.
  • Clean Joomla's cache if it's enabled.
  • K2 URLs should now be optimized by sh404SEF.

Travel Blogging Turns 20 Today

HP Virtual Museum
Today marks the 20th anniversary of what's believed to be the first travel blog post. So happy birthday to us, and maybe you too!

In honor of the occasion, travel bloggers worldwide are raising a glass (ok, they were probably doing that anyway), Jeff Greenwald, the author of that first travel blog post, uploaded from the tourism bureau in Oaxaca, Mexico, reflected back on the experience for "Wired."

A recently-released program called Mosaic was revolutionizing what might be possible on the World Wide Web. "What we hope you'll do," the editor [at O'Reilly Media] said, "is write columns for us - from the road. We'll publish them live, on the GNN [Global Network Navigator, O'Reilly's website], where people can read them as you travel." The Travelers' Center, he told me, would include a feature that sounded miraculous: A map would be displayed on their website, with dots showing the locations from where I'd sent back posts. People would simply click on those dots - and see the story I'd written from that location!
