To support sustainable food production, BHP is building one of the world's most sustainable
cottage mines in Canada.
Essential resources responsibly produced.
It's happening now at BHP, a future resources company.
Welcome to R-Slash, a podcast where I read the best posts from across Reddit.
Today's subreddit is R-Slash Choosing Beggars.
Who's trying to give me a car or a ride to work every day?
I work at McDonald's in rice.
You need to give me a ride home too.
I can send you my schedule every week.
Or give me a car so you don't have to deal with the BS of rides.
Sim picks of what you got.
I have a beat-up cavalier.
The AC doesn't work though.
We can work at a payment plan or something if you can't pay the price at once.
My boyfriend won 600 bucks for it. I ain't driving no beater without AC LOL. And no, didn't you read my post?
I'm not paying for your junkie car cracking the F up. Wow, just trying to help. Good luck getting a free car or free rides to work at McDonald's you broke turd.
And unfortunately, entitled people like this guy are apparently pretty common.
Down in the comments, Sbashi says, when I was a scheduling manager, I had an employee
always told me that they needed to work when certain people were working so they could
have a ride to and from work.
But never asked any of the other employees if they were available to do so.
Yeah, a guy didn't last long.
And then do I offend you ads?
I gave out rides for years.
I would show up at people's apartments and have to knock on the door and wake them up
for work most of the time.
Once Ward got out, I was picking up like 3 people and never got gas money or thank you,
so I finally said that if you weren't waiting outside when I got there I would drive by.
This was pre-cell phones and they would get pissed.
Looking back on it I was really taken advantage of.
In search of experienced Mason, prize free.
I'm looking for an experienced Mason to redo the steps on our home.
You pay for materials.
I will not pay for the job.
But my name has a lot of pull in this town.
My reference is worth far more than a job.
First come first serve.
She ends the pose with first come first serve.
Is she honestly expecting more than one person
to take this offer?
Free firewood, pick up only, message me for the address.
First come, first served.
You'll definitely need a couple of people to live them safely.
Whoever bucked that up did not do a good job.
I'll need it in smaller, stackable pieces.
Sorry, I'm giving them away as is.
I need to borrow your chainsaw to cut it up.
Home Depot rents, lol. Lend me the money.
The woods free, tons of savings there. Can I sell the wood? Ah, never mind, nobody's going to buy
uncut wood. And then down in the comments we have this story from a mine. I bought a house in a city
that had about 60, 40-foot tall scrub trees on the small lot. My dad took them all down solo
without damaging the house or the neighbors.
People watched for days.
He would trim them, then cut down,
then slice up and stack the logs.
As soon as the work was done,
people would come out in droves,
offering to help him out by taking the wood.
We were giving it away because that's a ton of wood
and we have zero places to burn it. And as soon as he'd say take what you won, the begging started.
My favorite was the old lady and her 30-something-year-old grandson. She went in my dad to not only
chop the wood into kindling, she also wanted him to deliver it and stack it for her. I came
out and said, sure, that'll be $500. She went ballistic. He said
the wood was free. The wood is free. Chopping it into pieces as size you want, delivery
and stacking are $500. She literally called the cops because we wouldn't do more work
and then deliver it to her. When the cops got there, it was beyond hilarious. She couldn't understand why they couldn't make my dad chop the wood into the size she
wanted and deliver it, since we told her the wood was free.
We did, however, get several cops to come pick up the wood after their shift because, hey,
free wood.
Some dumb mother effort tried to get a discount on a kayak because it was displayed outside
in the rain, as
if kayaks sole purpose isn't to be wet.
Ugh, what am I supposed to do with a wet boat?
It's ruined now!
Also, we have a couple of stories down in the comments.
X-Tepi-G says, I had a gentleman asked for a discount because the bike he was buying
was pre-built.
I was so dumbfounded by his stupidity,
all I could say was, sir, we pre-build them for your convenience. My co-workers said I should have
offered him one of the bikes still in the box. They don't come with instructions on how to build them.
I'll always regret not offering him the box bike. And then, head case in a half adds this.
I was working at the front desk of a hotel that happened to sell the local newspaper for 50 cents. A man who was waiting on the bus
came over and asked me if I could give him a newspaper. I said absolutely, it's just
50 cents. The man looked at me disgusted and scoffed. I just wanted to read it. Um, yeah
dude, that's why people buy newspapers, to read them.
On this next post, Opie had a date with this girl and the girl stood him up and then
got annoyed when he refused to pick her up the second time.
Also, this message isn't very broken English and I'm cleaning it up to make it more understandable.
You didn't want to pick me up.
I have lots of boys chasing me from tinderandmeetup.com.
They're buying gifts for me and pampering me.
They're not letting me be by myself in public transportation to catch coronavirus.
Not safe. I went a boyfriend with a nice car, nice house, nice job, and an Australian citizen.
After I become his good loyal girlfriend and sleeping together, he helps me stay in Australia. I asked you, and you didn't tell me you have a big house, good job, money, and citizenship.
I'm studying, I don't have any money, I'm a pretty girl, I don't need work one day.
I'll find a rich boyfriend spoiling me and buying me makeup and paint for surgery, letting
me look beautiful all the time.
So between the broken English and her saying that it's super important that she meets someone
who's an Australian citizen, it sounds like this lady is just looking for a green card
marriage.
So that makes her a choosing beggar, gold digger scammer.
Dude, I think you're probably better off without her.
On this next post, a choosing beggar requested that someone buy them nitro boost for their
discord server.
Hi, I saw what you wrote in the main chat. Well, now you have Nitro, smiley face.
Okay, but I wanted Nitro Boost not Classic Nitro. I already got Classic Nitro before.
Oh, I thought you've never gotten any Nitro before, but it's still Nitro, right?
I've gotta go now, have a good one. If you have enough money to buy Nitro Classic, then you have enough money to buy Nitro Boost.
The money difference isn't much. I see that you have Nitro Boost right now. Why couldn't
you have just given that one to me and you could have gotten the Classic? I swear, you
people are just one of the most greedyest people on this platform.
Do you still have the face masks for sale?
Yes, I have 8 left in stock.
Hey, I need 9!
Unfortunately, it takes a little bit for me to get the fabric, but I can provide more
as I get enough.
That is not okay.
Your advertisement said you had 20.
If you're gonna try to scam people out of their money, just say so.
Scam?
How am I scamming you?
I'm giving you masks for free.
You lied in your advertisements.
No, I just ran out of stock.
You filthy whore.
I'm going to make sure to tell no one to buy any masks
from you.
Ha, ha, ha, ha.
I'm giving them away for free.
Fine, bring them to my house.
No, our business here is done.
FU JIRK!
Yo white girl, OP, I need a big favor.
I know.
Ha ha ha, how do you know since I didn't even ask you?
My first book is complete.
I just need you to re-edit a flyer you made a couple years ago.
Nope, I'm too busy for any of that.
Plus, it's not like I have any of those project files still.
What was that?
It's only a couple words.
I can send you that stuff again.
Time for you to learn a new skill, my dude.
Go to Blank and Play Around.
It's an online tool where you can easily create graphics for any social media.
Dude, I need you to edit one word.
Don't be so self-righteous.
No, I'd need to do the whole thing from scratch because I don't have the Photoshop file.
You don't be so lazy.
Learn a new skill and get your problem solved in the process.
Then you can stop asking me for this stuff every other month.
The person that pays $300,000 for his skill and everyone else is lazy.
Huh? That doesn't even make sense. I linked you to a free resource.
If you don't take advantage of a free resource, you're the lazy one.
I didn't even learn Photoshop at school.
O.P. please!
If you didn't go to school, you wouldn't know how to do these things.
You have a bachelor's degree in a field and so do I.
I can email the thing to you when you can convert it a bachelor's degree in a field and so do I. I can email
the thing to you when you can convert it. That's not how it works.
That IS how it works. We're talking about the context, not the graphics.
Please stop. You have no idea what you're talking about.
I learned Photoshop by watching hours of YouTube tutorials in my free time. You're ignorant,
dude.
If you think you know how this works, then you should just go ahead and do it yourself.
You can't, because you don't know how it works.
Stop being prideful.
Just learn a new skill and you can do these things for yourself from now on.
Your selfish and self-righteous dude!
I can't even tell you how much free work I've done for you over the past years.
I'm sorry if you feel like I'm selfish for finally saying no.
Pretty astounding thing for you to say.
As the world's population grows,
so does the need for resources like potash
to support sustainable food production.
This is why BHP is building one of the world's most sustainable potash mines in Canada.
Essential resources responsibly produced. This is what BHP has mines in Canada. Essential resources responsibly produced.
This is what BHP has committed to Canada.
The future is clear.
It's happening now at BHP,
a future resources company.

at any time on the tracks. Remember to follow all traffic signals, be careful
along our tracks, and only make left turns where it's safe to do so. Be alert, be
aware, and stay safe.
Our next post is from a Facebook group dedicated to giving away free masks to members of the
community.
Hey, I got some masks from you for my daughter's daycare. It was 30 for the care gippers?
Yes, how are you?
Well, I'm a bit taken aback. The stitching doesn't complement the fabric, and I'm embarrassed
to give them to the teachers. I'll need you to make more. The stitching doesn't compliment the fabric and I'm embarrassed to give them to the teachers.
I'll need you to make more. The stitching has to match what fabric you use.
You should know this, like really. Um, are you serious? I made you 30 masks. They were free.
Free! I took my fabric thread elastic and my time to make these to donate to your school.
All of these supplies are difficult to find and I use what I had on hand.
Making that many masks takes time.
Changing thread and bobbin colors for each mask adds a lot of time.
If you're not pleased with what I made, please donate them to someone who's more appreciative.
Thanks for your privileged feedback.
Okay, I need you to make more than.
I don't think so. I don't think so.
I don't think you understand.
I went 30 more masks like the one you made, but with the correct coordinating thread color.
I promise the teacher is and you're making me look bad.
I don't think you understand.
If you need a special order, then you have to pay for them.
You'll need to provide the fabric, the thread for each mask,
plus a bob in that fits my machine for each color.
I'll need interfacing and elastic enough for each mask.
You'll need to include detergent so I can wash the fabric.
You can get nose pieces as well.
When you have this gathered, you can leave it on my porch.
The charge will be 25 bucks per mask.
That'll help me be able to continue to donate to others.
After I complete my wait list, I'll consider making yours.
I don't know where to get these things. You're being very unreasonable.
I don't think I like the way you're talking to me. No problem. Buy then. Down in the comments,
still Mighty brings up a very interesting point. She's trying to resell them and knows she can get
more money for cute ones. Teachers don't care if the masks are cute.
They want to get back to the classroom and a little thread color isn't going to bother
them.
She's a choosing beggar and likely a scammer as well.
This next post is a cross post from R-slashamide the Butthole.
In my Butthole for not letting my sister and brother-in-law sleep in my room instead
of the living room, my sister, brother-in-law and their son moved in with me due to financial issues.
They've been here for around a month now.
I only have a two-bedroom place though.
So my sister and brother-in-law have been bunking down in our living room and their son
is staying in my son's room.
They've asked if they could change the sleeping arrangements so that they, my sister and brother-in-law,
get one of the bedrooms and the boy stays in the living room.
She said that she and her husband were having problems because they never have any privacy
for just the two of them.
I said no to that because my son, who's autistic, needs to keep his sleeping arrangements
in space the same, otherwise he'll have a meltdown.
And I'll have a hard time getting him to bed.
My sister understood that and then asked if I could stay in the living room then.
She thinks it makes more sense for the single person to sleep in a living room instead
of the couple who could share a bed.
And yeah, from a neutral point of view, it makes more sense.
But come on, this is my home.
I want to keep my private area to myself in my home.
It's already driving me crazy having them here all the time.
It's only going to be worse if I don't have someplace to retreat to. I also don't want to have to sleep on
a couch or air mattress in my home. I wouldn't sleep in my bed where I won't wake up with
a backache. And let's be real, I don't want my sister passionately hugging in my bed.
If I had a guest room I wouldn't care, but them being in my own personal bed just makes
me uncomfortable.
Like, I totally get that not having privacy and not being able to passionately hug sucks
for them, but I don't think that should affect me.
So I told her no to that too, and now my sister and brother-in-law are basically giving
me the silent treatment.
They're also both getting snappy with each other and arguing in hushed tones.
OP, your sister-in-law's nuts.
If she really wants privacy that badly, she can buy herself a tent and go passionately
hug in the backyard.
This is the beginning.
I'm on a mission to travel to every country in the world and have brands and businesses
pay for my flight and accommodation for each trip.
I will document the entire journey both here and on the website. The first
post might be the most difficult, while followers are low and risk of me completing this journey
is high. However, if a brand takes part early, they can choose the destination with the cheapest
flight for me to travel to. I'm willing to fly for a day trip to save the brand or business
on hotel costs. So, who's going to stamp their name against trip number one on the sponsor, traveler, and gain exposure to the hundreds
of thousands of followers to come? Speak soon! And the best part about this post is that
it has 67 likes. Good luck, lady. The only way anyone would follow you is to figure
out how on earth you scammed businesses in the giving you free travel money.
