$1488 OFF
The Nazi regime was just the Antebellum South with German characteristics CMV
You know it’s funny, I do a job where I calculate values of business related numbers for various timeframes in excel all day and I’m so uncomfortable with this fucking number than when it’s like, for example “between 5pm-7:30pm we did 148.8 units of work” I’ll be like “hmmm, surely management would actually like to know what was happening from 4:30pm-5pm also. Uh, between 4:30pm-7:30pm we did 167.2 units of work. Yeah much better.”
It doesn’t happen every day, but like a couple times a year a calculation randomly comes out to this and I can’t fuckin abide it
Ugh
Even if it was unintended, just fucking round up
$12 isn’t going to break your business, Mr. HVAC
Actually 1488 happens to be a completely calculated discount optimizing a balance between consumer savings and profit
How compelling
what is the significance of 1488?
The 14 words, a neo-Nazi slogan - we must secure a future for our large hwhite sons and nephews (or something to that effect)
88 - The 8th letter is H so it stands for “heil Hitler”.
fuckin sneaky nazis, man
I hate to be that guy, but what are the chances this was some accounting quark? Like that was the most they could offer off while still making a decent profit on the service, and it just happened to be the Nazi number?
I’m not denying there’s a lot of white supremacist small business Kulaks in the US, but I think most of them lack the cleverness to be this subtle. There’s a racist mechanic in my town and he doesn’t bother with subtle signaling like that, he just posts a bunch of off brand MAGA signs outside of his business.
I’ve seen a small business where the owner was Chinese add eighty-eight cents to every price, I figured it was just an “eight is a lucky number, especially for money” thing. The fact that there are so many other 8’s here makes me wonder if it’s something like that.
I would honestly find it more
if it was JUST 1488 and all the other prices were normal.I could go both ways with this case. A few months ago I bought some random items from a store and it came to a 14.88 euro total so this number can definitely come randomly but like it’s definitely a bit weird to give exactly a $1488 discount, why not round it up to $1500?
