The part where you insert a clip is too close to the edge of the glass for this to be viable in a short amount of time. https://vgy.me/iuPL28.jpg
Of course it's easy to pick when you don't have glass in the way. On top of all of this, any customers I see standing near locked cases I call out on the radio. Our AP strategy already accounts for this
Looks like you're on Android? Try this version of MyTLC. It's being developed actively by our own /u/masonmilby and usability is WAY better than the old version.
Anyone know if it’s tied to your account? If it’s just $5 dollars, I’d rather just give it away since I don’t have anything in mind to buy.
A little late but here you go:

Buy a pair of blue light blocking/anti glare glasses on Amazon. They work pretty well at helping reduce eye irritation.
Different manufacturers have different training sites for retail associates. Each one is different. Some let you accumulate points and use them towards products, others are just there for knowledge.
The two I've been using lately are:
Lenovo's training app is new but I like it because it's easy and fast. They do monthly drawings for prizes. You need a referral code for it. You can use 49955.
Intel's retail edge is great because you earn points and can buy products at a heavy discounts.

Halfway through the article it tells you how to change your audio to come out via HDMI. You're using ARC so everything should play well together.
The culprit is probably wireless interference. It takes a lot of bandwidth to transmit high quality sound and if your/your neighbor's router, babymonitor, microwave or whatever is transmitting at the same frequency, they use up all of that precious bandwidth. Generally it can be fixed by either moving your router farther away from it, or changing the band that your router is projecting through. Generally its just a setting you can toggle on your router.
If you didn't want to do that for some reason, or still couldn't get it working, it is a totally valid reason to exchange it. The only downside to that is that swapping it to a different set, or to the wireless Astros you will still probably keep having the same problem.
both "mice" and "mouses" are correct when it comes to the computer peripheral. when talking about the animal, only "mice" is the correct word
https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/mouse
i usually say "mouses" when i talk about the computer peripheral but now that i think about it i probably look like a retard to most
I mean...you could look at actual verifiable numbers of actual infections and deaths. You are just straight making shit up quoting numbers like 9.8 million.

Good advice here. The hardest part for many is learning how to manually set boundaries that naturally exist while working at a store where work is in a literally different location.
The upside is that a lot of people learned how to work from home in 2020, so there's plenty of great advice out there.
On the customer service side, I learned a lot from this book, which I've long argued should be sent to every employee that deals with customers.
If you have an iPhone, I recommend Betternet. My school blocks certain sites on their wi-fi and this VPN has been working amazing for my friends and I. There are ads in the app, but that's the only way Betternet can still be free and make money. There's just like 1 in app ad and every time you connect, you have to see a small fullscreen ad
Honestly, the ads alone are worth it because it's been working flawlessly for me, the ads aren't annoying at all and I've never had the VPN randomly disconnect on me like others have
* Not sure about Android since like 80% of my school uses iPhones lol
While I don't recall the term of service outright stating that rooting/jailbreaking would void it, any damage done as a result will not be covered as it would be deemed intentional (I.E. the root fails and hard bricks the device/you modify the power to a component and now if doesn't work). Obviously if you dropped the phone and it doesn't work because of that, you should be fine. It is worth noting your manufacturer warranty will be void as Samsung has a Knox counter that will go from Zero to One when you modify it.
Oh you haven't actually enrolled in it yet?
You can only enroll or change your health insurance during:
A) Open Enrollment. Begins in October, but its a window of time, once a year, where anyone who is eligible, can enroll or make changes to their plans.
B) Become Full Time following 60 days of continuous work.
C) Be Part Time and work average of 30hrs/week for the past 12 months. You will get a notice if you become eligible.
D)QLE (Qualifying Life Event) Best Buy calls it a qualifying status change. It may include: losing your current healthcare, turning 26 and leaving your parents healthcare, getting married, moving, having or adopting a baby, etc.
When I signed up myself it was because of D. I did it online however you can also call the HR hotline and do it that way. Especially if you have questions on the process you may want to call in. They can also confirm your eligibility to enroll.
Also on the HR website go to Benefits - Health and Wellness - Full Time Health and Welfare Benefits.
That page should have everything you need to know, what number to call, and links for further details.
Sorry to hear your order got canceled. If this hasn't been resolved by now you should be able to give Enterprise Customer Care a call (or email) and they are usually pretty quick to respond. There is a live chat option, as well as email and phone numbers here: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Global/Customer-Service/pcmcat87800050001.c?id=pcmcat87800050001
Before moving on, you might want to try a replacement set of ear tips made from memory foam. Amazon has a few options, I went with the Comply assorted size set to figure out which works best.
Memory foam seems to conform better and hold in my ears, making them sound better and stay longer during workouts and bike rides.
Ditch the idea of wireless and plan on pulling wire. The best wireless you can get is a Sonos move. However there are infinite possibilities with passive speakers. Look up sonance garden series speakers or the patio 6.1 system.
If you can’t get the amp inside the house. Use this https://www.amazon.com/Waterproof-Outdoor-Weatherproof-Enclosure-Cabinet/dp/B0042ZKWBG/ref=mp_s_a_1_49?keywords=outdoor+enclosure&pscroll=1&qid=1653852275&sr=8-49&wIndexMainSlot=86
Install it somewhere outside near a power outlet then pull 16/4 or 14/4 speaker wires from the amp to where you want speakers.

Something can be wrong with a case still. Ripped, magnetic area not disabling the screen, ect. Saying nothing can be wrong with it because it's a case is ignorant.
Then, doubling down, you are wrong about the fact it couldn't be fulfilled by best buy and ordered on Amazon., you can order best buy items from Amazon. If you don't believe me go into OMA Advanced search and check Amazon under fulfilment.
Still don't believe me? Check this insignia tv for an example. : https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0874YZVWK/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_glc_i_dl_KTHSHXAY46M313HWHC6H
And if you have an issue with this and contact Amazon, they tell you that you can take it into a best buy store. Crazy development over the last year or so, isn't it?
Asking if I'm drunk and saying I don't know what I'm talking about, while absolutely having no clue. Are you drunk sir?
I also work in a different retailer, and we also see a bit of theft of these. We did move them to right next to the POS counter for a bit, but we've ended up just putting them on a rack directly across from the POS desk, with clear sight lines.
We also found that putting the USB-C and Lightning headphone adapters right next to each other also reduced theft by ~60%. My hypothesis is that they are similar enough that the type of person who might shoplift can't tell the difference between them, and also doesn't have the smarts to just steal both, so they have to ask about them.
On some of our other higher-risk items like SD cards, we use anti-sweep hooks that stops almost all theft of those items, something like these.

Customer here - just got a Best Buy "your order is delayed" email for a Apple Watch Series Seven Stainless. Supposed to be able to pick up on Friday and the email late Friday saying delayed. What are my chances of getting it before Christmas? I'm in the Dallas area.
Here's the email:
https://mail.google.com/mail/u/1/#inbox/FMfcgzGllVmNRbGbzmgdkTMrNtLkZzMW
Most likely not. What area are you looking to pick it up?
Found the same pack at Walmart though. Looks like it's the last one: https://www.walmart.com/ip/49404026?wmlspartner=wlpa&adid=22222222227036962361&wl0=&wl1=g&wl2=c&wl3=101642203248&wl4=pla-142744627968&wl5=9032477&wl6=&wl7=&wl8=&wl9=pla&wl10=8175035&wl11=online&a...
You would want to ask the client if they are comfortable with you removing your mask before doing it. There should be some face Shields you could usen too
Also if you have an Android phone you can use Live Transcribe which will caption voice, it's very useful for deaf clients to see what you are saying
Honestly I would let them know how it's affecting the front end department and what your perception is of the whole situation, it would be a bit different if he was being asked by a store leader to leave the post but if he is doing it on his own that's something that can be nicely talked about, I wouldn't bring a manager involved if its something you can fix by just being real with them.
Has anyone else noticed this same pattern or just you? If other people have seen it then instead of using yourself as the perceiving individual refer it to "The perception of others" it's hard to argue when other people are seeing the same behavior.
Best of luck :)
Also you can use the sandwich method here is a link that can help you with what can be considered a difficult conversation
https://www.ionos.com/startupguide/productivity/sandwich-method/
So today I probably had the rudest customer I had ever dealt with.
After greeting them at the front door, he tells me he wants to see a Sirius XM channel guide. I tell him I have absolutely no clue what he was talking about, since I was thinking it was a chart like we use to have by streaming devices, but offer to take him there. He agrees, saying he knows we have them and there is some small talk.
We get there, I notice some folded papers and hand him it. He finds a channel guide on the last page and then says something like "well, look at this, what do you think this is?" I glare at him like he is a real piece of work and say nothing. He then continues "it appears this is the guide I was talking about" and then proceeds to ask me if I make commission and rambles on about how I should these things, I would try harder if there was commission and this would've been $40 that I lost.
The thing that annoys me isn't so much he felt the need to belittle me for not caring about something in another section, much less an item that is extremely unpopular, but I actually took him there, found the paper (he didn't seem to notice it) and still felt the need to tell me this like that would've really changed the sale. Not to mention the ability to look it up online and not requiring an associate to just know these things.
Here for the benchmarks. This website is one of my go-tos for information like this
As for PM, no users need to have an active TM account to access their PM. Yes we do have a mobile app.

If you check out that website you'll find Webroot is not a top performer. I hear you saying that it catches things and that's good. It should. That's what it's designed to do. But overall Webroot is a less secure product than trend micro. If you don't believe me just ask Asus why they out trend in their routers and not Webroot. NASA uses tend micro too.
There are some price history sites that can let you know the historical price for items.
According to honey, it's dipped down to a low of $529 a couple times in the last 60 days, basically it goes on sale twice a month
The only modems that's will have the connection for their phone service is the ones that they provide.
Keep using the spectrum one untill you cut the cord from your house phone.
Side note, if you're only reason for keeping the home phone is that you don't want to lose the number then I would recommend porting the home phone number over to Google Voice. $20 one time port fee, no monthly charges.

If you go with a Samsung beware that the holes to mount the soundbar are located on the bottom of the soundbar not on the back like they used to it. It comes with 2 L brackets so you can mount to the wall or above and below your tv. In my case since my 55” tv was already seating on a tv stand I went with something similar to this to mount on top off my tv. https://www.bestbuy.com/site/rocketfish-soundbar-mount-black/8870244.p?skuId=8870244. I had to use spare parts from other projects to the soundbar mount connected to the L brackets.

It's pretty easy to find parts for most computers that are < 5ish years old.
Also pretty easy to install yourself, but if you're not comfortable, Geek Squad will install it for $40 if you bring it in. You're on your own to get the part, Best Buy can't do that for you.

They're fantastic. I have two blue gaiters and two charcoal gaiters.
Take the neck gaiter and combine it with something like these and you have yourself the perfect face covering. It's easy to pull down when you're drinking, eating, or at the end of your shift. It doesn't hurt your ears, it doesn't hurt your face, it's very breathable, and the metal nose bridge sticker keeps it snug while also preventing fogging if you wear glasses.
I don't see the wiring wearing out. Most likely the little silicon pads under the buttons. They're available on Amazon for really cheap. Unless you've already opened the remote and seen the wires wearing out. In that case, you can easily replace those, you'll just need solder. Check this out.
Probably so expensive because they are paying for the shelf space rent since they never sell. Amazon has them for less than $50.
Well theres a few point to look at here:
1: That distance is a bit of a stretch regardless but there are some pretty good PCIe and USB based cards that should handle it okay assuming your walls aren't made of brick. The one you posted i believe should be up to task but give it as much of a fighting chance as possible by maybe using a USB extender and placing it out from behind your system.
2: Unfortunately on-board wifi isn't the highest quality from really any of the manufacturers. Some boards that have actual antenna ports tend to get a little bit better reception but its not uncommon for even people buying higher end $400+ motherboards to either use a hardline ethernet connection or add in a PCIe wifi card as even high end boards can have less than ideal wifi.
3: If your router has antennae that can be removed then you could try replacing one of them with a highly directional patch antenna and point it in the direction of your room. Theres a few of them on Amazon that work pretty well like this one: https://www.amazon.com/Alfa-APA-M25-directional-connector-WL-ANT-157/dp/B00R1PA9EO/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=router+patch+antenna&qid=1590003827&sr=8-1

Download the company portal app and sign in. One of the options is to install the company app. It will ask for permission to install from 3rd party, allow that.
When ever the app says to update clicking the link within the app fails for me. The solution I've found is to resign into the portal app and redownload it. It installs the latest version.
When I was on the sales floor I bought something similar to the ones security would use, and they worked so much better because it was inside my ear and not over it.

These are the wheel locks you should get https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000CMJ2QE/?tag=100568-20
They are free spinning (which means the old hammer socket trick will not work on these). Never keep the key in the car unless you're going on a road trip. Just make sure you have AAA for towing incase you get a flat locally, so they can tow it home or tow it to the dealer. Gives you time to get your wheel key.
Amazon has had them up all day off an on as well as Gamestop.

There's a bulky adapter you can buy online that is made specifically for these Motorola walkies. It's way too big and expensive to be worth it, so I never tried.
Honestly those Zagg shields are a huge pain to install correctly, even moreso with the glass versions and curved screens. I would recommend trying for that return if possible and looking into an IQ shield. I use one for my S8 and installed it myself perfectly first time. The pack should come with 2 incase one is messed up.
Unfortunately we can’t price match that because it’s sold by a third party. The only one that we would match would be this because it’s sold and shipped by Amazon. So you could save $0.99 if you want to match
Look into these instead of the rings. Put one on the top and one on the bottom of each acrylic, they seem to last longer than the rings and don't leave residue when they come off.
Still have to use the rings for the big acrylic stuff (iPads and the info signs), but at least the price sign holders don't come off daily.
The main thing that really pisses me off is deceptive marketing. I don't think my coworkers are liars, but one of them tried to sell my dad a premium HDMI cable. It seems that home theater employees are easily deceived by bullshit, because another one of them was buying platinum wiring for his own system. In addition, I was told that I would be laughed at if I asked them if we sold some device that can convert analog inputs to HDMI. That's asinine, because I know full well that they are not fundamentally incompatible or complex to make, and that they even exist, from this piece of crap to the Framemeister.
Upselling isn't terrible, but there's a reason everyone hates (or at least hated) GameStop and their stupid PowerUp rewards cards
Definitely wouldn’t be. I found this on amazon but I’m not sure if you’ve tested these or not.

I guess that sounds like that could be pretty efficient.
When I was working back in computers, our store tested these out. No one really liked them, it was hard to organize.
O RLY? Cuz my schedule in TLC says I'm off at 9 PM, not off at some ambiguous "when finished with closing duties". It always kills me when they try to hold me over and I'm like "Nope, I had plans after work, see ya tomorrow!".
Maybe instead of trying to coax people into doing the right thing they should use their leadership skills to actually set expectations (like not standing around during their shift) and get it done the right way? At my last retail gig where I was in a leadership position we were basically forced to read a book called Crucial Accountability... honestly I learned a lot from that book, certainly more than I expected.
It's all about the shoes for me. I bought a pair of these.
I can work 8 hours straight before my feet get tired.
If you're an audiophile or just love good audio for games check out the V-MODA accomodation. You can choose between all of their products, but I got the Crossfade M-100s:
These headphones have received so many awards, and after having these for a few months now, I can say they live up to their reputation. The deal we get on them is amazing, and there's even a code for the accessories if you need them (like the boompro microphone for gaming). They kick the shit out of Beats (but most do anyway, honestly), and Sennheiser only has one set that can compare to these.
EDIT: The accomodation also includes personalization options, but it only covers the fiber shields and not the aluminum shields, for obvious reasons.
Personally I hope you don't work in computers (or are new), but yes as others have stated you can't go from a lower quality, VGA, to a higher one,HDMI, with just a cable alone. They do make converter boxes that allow you to do that.
