@YouTube @YouTubeCreators I’m watching a video on my Roku, that isn’t monetized, yet I’m getting pre roll ads. If I watch the video on mobile, I don’t get ads … make it make sense @YouTubeGaming

@HPSupport This issues is beyond me and my printer model. And you know that

[Alexander Hobbes @AlexanderHobbes]

It’s really amazing how many hoops I have to jump through to print something with my @HP printer. Like why do I need an app and account and magical powers just to hit print.

@indeed @IndeedJapan @IndeedUK I can even let slide the “needs degree” jobs but are hiring new to the field (like a just graduated doctoral student) but like literally have seen jobs that state “will not hire recent graduates must have X years experience”… again, not entry level

[Alexander Hobbes @AlexanderHobbes]

@indeed you really need to work on curating the “entry level” on your job board. Like 98% are not even remotely entry level

[Alexander Hobbes @AlexanderHobbes]

Literally @indeed @IndeedJapan @IndeedUK #indeed there is a director job requiring a masters and 15 years of experience… it’s not “entry level”

@firstenergycorp #penelec it would be really nice if your infrastructure was good enough that I didn’t lose power for every quick 5 minute storm. Without a doubt this year if it rains I’m guaranteed to, at the very least, have brownouts, or a 30 second power outage, minimum

Been going to @Americas_Best for years and this year I got to experience see appointment in person where the doctor wasn’t in person… umm wtf is this? Legit soo stupid

[Alexander Hobbes @AlexanderHobbes]

@McDonalds why did the touch screen ordering change? It takes longer to order now and yall got rid of the “make it plain” button for burgers #firstworldproblems

[Alexander Hobbes @AlexanderHobbes]

@Kohls bought a shirt 2 weeks ago for ~$11, they are ~$18 today. Same shirt, same store… what gives?

[Alexander Hobbes @AlexanderHobbes]

@StaplesStores @TSA #clear went to staples, to do clear pre ✅, wasn’t able to make appointment online (was showing a error), and was told they’re booked all day and that I wasn’t allowed to wait in the store. wtf

[Alexander Hobbes @AlexanderHobbes]

@indeed hey when we update applications can we get a new button that say “ghosted” and then The job gets penalized for posting a job and then never doing anything with it again? Like a “hey it’s been a year and then never even looked at applications” button @IndeedJapan @IndeedUK

[Alexander Hobbes @AlexanderHobbes]

Just saw a job listing for a upcoming “job fair”. You have to apply, they look over your resume and will contact you if interested, then they will setup a specific time to come into the “job fair” and only the people who get invited are welcome…. That’s… just… interviews…

[Alexander Hobbes @AlexanderHobbes]

@YouTube I’ve asked this before by why are Roku viewers penalized for viewing in Roku? Like add breaks are more frequent and a LOT longer. What’s up with that?

[Alexander Hobbes @AlexanderHobbes]

@REI is trying to hire part time season employees with AND I QUOTE “no guaranteed hours” with an expectation of 8-12hours or less a week like… why are you hiring? #jobmarket #REI #wtf

[Alexander Hobbes @AlexanderHobbes]

Fun fact if you hire through indeed, it’s pretty easy to click “not selected by employer” to give people some closure. It takes all of half a second to click the button. @indeed #hiring #indeed

What’s does AirPlay work SOOOOO bad? @Apple

[Alexander Hobbes @AlexanderHobbes]

@DonutOperator Yeah do you have a screen protector on that Steamdeck that you just threw into a random place?!?!?!?!?! I could never

[Alexander Hobbes @AlexanderHobbes]

@Kohls how do I contact you? I had a zoom interview today that I was never let into, but throughout the hiring process yall haven’t given me any way to contact you it’s all just “no reply” emails and through your jobs website which has not contact options available. Help????

[Alexander Hobbes @AlexanderHobbes]

@YouTube why do I get penalized for watching a on a bigger screen? I watch a video on my phone and ads are short and skippable in 5 seconds. I watch the same video on my TV through Roku and the adds are only skippable after one minute
