The rice does need to be rinsed but "clear" is not really the yardstick and the more wet it becomes the more starch is going to leech out. Just thoroughly rinse until reasonably transparent and only stir gently. Unless your goal is super sticky rice its a very important step for nice fluffy grains.
This. I'm honestly kinda surprised they mixed it enough to have the rice turn to mush, but well I've never tried mixing it that many times. Though normally even then it gets pretty clear at some point. Can't help but think they were also mixing too hard
normally it only takes like 10 minutes of running water through the bowl and lightly stirring the rice every couple minutes. It should def not get soggy that quickly, but cleaning the rice does matter.
I think this "rule" is total BS if you follow it literally. I might wash the rice 3 times and it is still cloudy, but it does not matter at this point.
OP: "How many times did you think I rinsed the rice?" Manager: "Uh...Seven?" OP: "37 times. Should I continue?" Manager: **Surprised Pikachu Face** Power tripping bosses and managers are the worst, seriously.
Things that are translucent are sometimes referred to as "clear". The first rinse is always cloudy, but by the second (or third) it's translucent, and I let it go at that. Also, the amount of time spent in each rinse is important. Rinse, dump, rinse, dump, rinse, dump. It's less than 30 seconds total. If you let it sit, you're going to affect the cooking time. The age of the rice is important too, older rice is drier. Until I began cooking rice for sushi, I never knew there was so much to know about handling rice.
Exactly, youre not get it completely clear after 3 washes,and it you can overwash rice. Edit extra notes. But you should still wash it 3 times. It does get the best mid max result.
Isn't it amazing how Story 1 Manager accused OP of stealing company time and resources, and here it is and HE was the one stealing time and resources. Dudes like this tell on themselves.
its that good old projection bias. they know that they are doing something bad, but convince themselves that everyone is doing it to justify why they should do it too.
The name for this phenomenon is called projecting and it is funny when it turns out that someone claiming that someone else is doing a wrong is actually just the first person projections their own wrongdoing
Malicious compliance, grandma edition: My grandma's phone number was a digit off of a Swiss Chalet. She tried to complain to them and they brushed her off. So she just started pretending to take their orders and telling them to pick up their food in 20 minutes...for months. They had a ton of angry customers. 🤣
rSlash a day keeps the sadness away Edit: I only say this in the context of listening to the podcast while doing work to help me not get stressed while working
My sister had an issue with her number being mixed up with an attorney's number due to a misprint on the website or something. (It's been quite a few yeears) She called them and told them what was going on and that they're losing clients left, right and center because she was telling the callers that the attorney no longer practiced in the area and would refer them to another attorney. They fixed it pretty quickly
I get why he’s not mentioning it but I bet rslash has to be in the best mood for the last few months with a certain RU-vidrs seeming endless freefall from grace. The high road really pays off sometimes.
Pretty sure illuminati. From what I heard from a deep dive on her, she was determined he was using bots to artificially inflate his numbers. As to how, how not? I suggest watching one of the many creators covering it if you're interested.
@@MiroslavMiroljubic Years ago, Iilluminaughtii went hard with claims that rslash was boting subs. Rslash didn’t really stoop to her level and has been completely vindicated now that she’s been exposed for being awful.
I honestly feel bad for the patients at the clinic, especially anyone with chronic health issues who might have been waiting a long time to make an appointment, anyone who had to take a day off work (that they might not get back), etc.
I don't. Every appt I make, I get confirmation that says the business and address. Why would you text a number and ask for an appt without verifying you're making an appointment at the clinic?
They could easily read the number correctly, not OP's fault the patients were lazy. If you can't double-check your number and call the correct place, then it's all on you. It sucks for them, but maybe next time confirm the clinic's number.
Yeah, I used to be a caretaker for my granddad - we had a lot going on at the time, so if not for my mom being the one to handle the big appointments, I easily would’ve been fooled by a stunt like this, and it would’ve put my granddad through a lot since he wasn’t able to get around much (he’d be really sore after car rides especially). I feel bad for the patients, but I don’t blame OP either. The clinic really should’ve resolved the issue when it was brought to their attention. Letting their clients continue to call the wrong number, having no idea who that person was or what they could’ve said to them, was unprofessional. What if OP convinced them that they needed to “confirm their identity” or “confirm their card on file” by giving up private information? They really could’ve gotten scammed if they didn’t know better. It wouldn’t’ve taken much to at least space out the numbers a bit on the website, and it would’ve helped out their clients.
Same here. Maybe it's easier to get appointments where other people live, but it's a nightmare here, and, no, we don't always get confirmations. That being said, I personally wouldn't text for an appointment without some way to confirm it, but that doesn't mean those people deserve to have their health messed about with.
Aside from the obvious, I have never understood the 'any bills over $60 will not be covered!' mentality. I had a job where the meal amounts were inadequate (think $5 total for breakfast in a city where even fast food goes over that). So, while I am good at finding good, inexpensive places I did, on occasion, go over. BUT if I spent, say, $5.85, my company covered the first $5 and I was out of pocket $0.85. The allowed $5 was still reimbursed. It was irksome to be out the overage due to an inadequate allowance, but at least my actual allowance, that I was entitled to by the rules, was still covered.
I had a job that occasionally required travelling for several days or weeks. We also had a small meal allowance that was inadequate unless you ate at McDonalds for every meal. However, there were times when I was working in an area where all of the restaurants within walking distance were crazy expensive. On a couple of occasions, I rented a car just so I would be able to drive and get an affordable meal. The other way around the limit was to create a dinner "meeting" with other employees and have one of us pay for everyone. For some reason, this was allowed.
Story 2: Honestly, that "Water looks unclear" task sounds impossible. Once water hits something, like dirt or food, it won't be clear, no matter how much rinsing you do
I was raised by a Filipino family and I've never had this dude's problem with washing rice, how do you rinse 37 times and get Horchata, Why 37! and what kind of rice are you using, dear lord
Fun fact about rice. The reason you wash the rice is because if you didn't the rice will come out super sticky. This isn't true with all rice. But just washing it removes the starch that accumulated during processing and distribution. The 3 time or until it runs clear rule is basically a rule of thumb. In the kitchen, you have to be able to use your best judgement.
Story 3: and that's how you get a someone who isn't trying to take advantage of you to take advantage of you. If you just work with people who are reasonable to begin with you probably won't have this type of issue.
Wikipedia, the Peter principle: "The Peter principle states that a person who is competent at their job will earn a promotion to a position that requires different skills. If the promoted person lacks the skills required for the new role, they will be incompetent at the new level, and will not be promoted again.If the person is competent in the new role, they will be promoted again and will continue to be promoted until reaching a level at which they are incompetent."
Yo, rSlash, I'm sure you got a good amount of videos already lined up, prerecorded and ready to be uploaded, but if this reddit thing keeps going longer, I'd suggest having us, your fans, submit our own stories. In fact, it could be an interesting video category. "Subscriber submitted stories". Just a thought.
@@kdepp90iirc they want 3rd party apps that Mods and subreddits use to pay a mint to access their new API. As such, many free, indie developed tools that people created in their own free time to make managing things easier will now have to pay Reddit to connect. This will kill so many tools that made life easier for people who volunteer their own time to manage a community. Despite how some mods are power trippy douches, when they do their job, everything runs smoothly.
Story 1: upper boss has no clue how easy he got off, getting fired after what he did was really just a slap on the wrist, the company couldn't easily sued him for, stealing company resources, forcing his responsibilities onto someone who isn't legally allowed to do so, and embezzlement (amung other things)
Hopefully Rslash has enough stories to make into videos after the massive protest on reddit. I just check and only one I saw that I couldn't was this subreddit. Others that he make content of still public
@kdepp90 basically reddit is self imploding due to the its new API policy screwing third party apps. So now a bunch of popular sub reddits such as f***youKaren and publicfreakout have made the subs private to protest this
I think most subs were only going off-line for 48 hours. That's what most of the mods said on Twitter. Which is silly because what's the point of telling the site how long the protest will last, especially if it's only two days because then they know they just have to wait it out. In any case, RSlash should be fine.
(short version) I was changing a tire on a helicopter one night and my gubment issued flashlight died because the batteries died. There was a street light near by so I had enough light to see what I needed to see. My supervisor came out and asked me where my flashlight was. I told him the batteries were dead, but I don't need it. He demanded that I go get batteries for it. So I went back to the hangar (1/2 mile away) to get fresh batteries. I took an hour, ate my lunch, smoked a few cigarettes and went to the bathroom. When I went back to the helicopter, he was still sitting there in the dark. He asked me why I took so long. I told him the tool room was closed and I had to wait til it reopened to get batteries 😅
@@Tues48 I'm sorry I'm 30 years old been washing rice for a minute the amount of pressure needed to break rice is quite a bit... Here's what I think happened you are mostly like correct he was washing it roughly a long with hot water and letting it soak as he washed it.
4th story: Typical Karen. Instead of fixing the problem with the number, they just add another way to set up your appointment. They would rather make more work for themselves than to admit they were wrong. Totally not the butthole.
I tell the only way my boss's tasks if he would have put it into writing so I have it as a "reminder". Being so self-absorbed he probably would. Then I walk straight down to HR and higher management with it saying I'm being abused and bullied by my boss.
3rd story, so let me get this straight. Your company billed the client for your manager telling you to take the client out for dinner? I wouldn't pay it either lol. Were they aware they'd be paying for that "treat" from your company? Is this normal in corporate world to treat your clients to smooth over bad blood and then send them the bill for it?
I came to the comments section specifically to get clarification for that story. Why should the client be paying in that situation, even if they foot the bill for food expenses normally? Then, after the owner settles the expense and smooths the situation over, OP upsets the client again by digging the issue back up, then starts deliberately overcharging the client out of spite. Model employee. Sounds to me like OP submitted the expense incorrectly.
First story: yea OP boss should went to prison but the fact he just got fired my theory that either he know to much and blackmailed to stay out of prison or he got blacklist from that company and every company they know and second story: there alway a manager that alway break the system and it ruin everything like everyone heard that if not broken don't fix it and OP manager broke the system and it and try do another way which almost cost her store not to open cause she wanted try a new way and in the end OP won and OP you probably should ask for a raise since you literally know how to run the store and if she won't give to the raise look for another job
Start the Day with Rslash and it chase the Karens away Thank you for letting me know that my hubby and i should go non contact with all of my family aside from select cousins lol i throw shade at them by playing your vids Rslash! The Dramir Crew are shady and petty so we have you read them for filth like the biggest of bosses put here! Hope your wife, kiddo and Puppster are amazing! Also draw to your vids!
Rice should not be rinsed till it's clear. The nutrients and vitamins are all in the water. A few rinses should do. If it's clear, your rice has very little nutrients and the rice will be very individually separated.
Rslash's videos are what grt me through the day. They give me a reason to keep going even when I don't want to. I know he probably won't see or notice this, but thank you Rslash. I really appreciate you and your videos❤
Rice story: This definitely happened at Chipotle. I was a manager there myself. That manager is an idiot. You don't piss off the grill and prep people before you open.
Rice washing, yes it won't be very "clear", it would just be less murky. I'm Laos (asian) and even I know at a fifth wash it won't be clear water, it would be clean but the water be transparent enough to see the rice.
That phone number story sounds similar to my parents phone number, which is two digits transposed from the local YMCA. It’s always amusing to hear people trying to book squash courts and swimming pool time, especially since they don’t have any of that stuff! They used to get calls every other day, but since the internet came along and the site now has a webpage, the calls have decreased significantly.
Was he rinsing the rice with hot water? How did it become mush before the water ran clear? I rinse rice all the time, that’s never happened to me even when I’m making sticky rice.
If there was some way to tell whether or not the 404 error was generated by clicking on a link within the website itself versus just a user typing in random URLs then maybe it could be useful but I don't think that's possible.
unrelated to the stories, but idk about the new AI generated thumbnails. On one hand it's better than using real people for something mean, on the other .. they look incredibly uncanny.
You'd think companies with meal expenses would implement a system where said expenses would only get flagged if the daily average ended up exceeding the allotted amount as opposed to denying any expense that was even _one cent_ over the limit. I work as a courier using my own vehicle and I set aside an allotment for gas every day. It's not the end of the world if I overspend on one day because the multiple days where I'm below my fuel cost can offset it.
When I was at university, I constantly got calls from people looking for accommodation at The Captain Stirling Hotel. I figured out my new landline number was their old number, which was now changed. So, people would call, and I would pass the new number along. But it was getting annoying. It took me months to track down exactly how my landline was still being given out. It was listed in a nearby hospital registry for interstate visitors. I informed the CSH and asked them to make sure their new number was listed in the guide. I was told they would "look into it". The calls kept coming. Now, given the prospective customers were not from Perth, I started telling them that The Captain Stirling had burned down, and they would need to look for accommodation elsewhere. After about 6 months, the CSH went under and changed owners.
If I had a dollar for every time I was listening to one of these videos and the story was about a person who had a certain budget that they were allowed to spend on usually food and then when they submitted their receipts it was under that number to a significant amount but one time it goes over for a special reason then they got in trouble for it at one point and decide to start charging the maximum amount every time after that I would have a lot of money.
The second story has to be at an Chipotle. I’d gladly bet my entire pay for the rest of the year on that bet. I’ve been in this exact situation at least three times a day.
Story 3. Honestly if I had a daily lunch budget of $60 and my food cost around $30 every day I would just tip $20 every day! Would probably encourage others in the office to do the same. No skin off my nose and those employees need that extra $$$
Wait... You rinse the rice? That's just drowning it! The best form to do it is pouring oil into a cooking pot, using one cup of rice, stir until the rice turns white. Then add 2 cups of boiling water and let the rice be cooked until the water is almost gone.. Then put the cooking pot over a Chilean Toaster (look it up) and let it cook in low fire by 20 minutes. Then it's ready and it's delicious
rSlash, I really love your content. It's been a routine to wake up to your videos to years. Do you have a plan for continuing with Reddit doing all this bs?
About rice. Recently broke a microwave because I put rice into a rise cooking pot without water. The small of burning rice and plastic was unbearable so much so that we couldn’t breath at one point. The cooker is broken, the microwave smells like melted plastic and I was in big trouble.
The rice thing, if you wash it properly, after 3x the water should run mostly clear. Mostly. Some folks don't include that one very important word. You do this to 1 wash the rice if any dirt from storage and 2, remove the excess starch that leaves rice gluey and nasty. Even sticky rice and sushi rice gets the same treatment so they're sticky, but not like school glue.
hey rslash idk if ur using ai art to create some of ur more recent thumbnails but just to lyk its better to use copyright free stock images or pay artists/photographers than ai art bc supporting ai art means supporting the stolen use of many artists' art/styles to teach the ai!
If I'm working and i get a dumb instruction my rule is question it once, and explain the possible risks. If they still insist on it, then go ahead and do it their way. Luckily I i haven't had to get anything in writing yet, but my bosses know I'm not afraid to speak up for myself, and that I will, and have involved a lawyer when necessary. 😊
I rinse and wash my rice till the rice 🍚 shines blamemy Asian step grandma she would smack my hand with the rice scooper if I didn’t mind you she would make rice in bulk cook it then separate it in plastic wrap and freeze it 😂 pop that rice in the microwave boom fresh rice still do it till this day.
Anytime you have a manager who's mistreating you, guaranteed they're doing other things wrong too, and they WILL be found out. You just have to wait until Karma arrives.
Earlier last year I went through my email that I've had for 15 years and cleaned it out. I went from over 8,000 emails to about 600. I had to look at each header to make sure I didn't delete anything important so it was a pain and a half. Never letting it get that bad again.
Yeah, Alonzo's or Alfredo's or whatever Pizza over in Elmhurts, did full-page spreads with a bud's number instead. Maybe not the *exact* number but close enough, like -4981 vs -4891. Same issue, they just tell him to change his number. He started "taking orders", being rude when people would call to complain they hadn't gotten their pizza, telling people absurdly low prices for their orders, telling them the place doesn't do delivery anymore, just takeout, etc. The place suffered something like a week and a half before they changed their number to a "personalised" one, like 94-PIZZA or something.
Sorry but 2nd story, how bad must the quality of the rice and how dirty it is if the water doesn't run clear after 3 washes and it starts to absorb water and becomes mushy JUST FROM WASHING IT??!?!?
Until the water _begins_ to run clear. It's not a _rule_ it's a guideline. OP was 100% right, 2-3 times is where you want to stick unless you want a different consistency but for right rice...for the love of the flying spaghetthi monster--... 2-3 times is FINE. Source; my younger broke butt living off top ramen and rice.
The story about op who worked as a cook in a restaurant is that op should have told her stupid manager don't ever tell me how to do my own job unless you find yourself in a world of hurt
For Story 1, I have to assume execs didn't push for criminal charges because they didn't want outside investigators looking closely at their books. Even if the execs weren't doing anything intentionally wrong, that is a risky proposition...never know what a third party might find and be obligated to report.
I'm pretty familiar with washing rice because I make sushi. It makes sense to have a rice washer if you are in the restaurant business, but I used to just put it in the bowl and run the water through it until you can shake the rice around and the water isn't clear. It doesn't have to be perfect, but it does matter if you want good quality rice that sticks.
I feel bad for the lady in the rice story, she was only doing her job as put on the label: ensure everything is of satisfactory quality which the OP clearly doesn’t care about by cutting corners (cleaning rice 2 times instead of 3)
Never think staying under your Per Diem is a good thing/doing your company a "favor". All it does is show your management exactly what happened, you can exist with less and then this always happens. THEY DONT CARE IF ITS UNDER, they only care if its over.
Yes, but with the per diem story, there's another aspect to it. OPs company was fine with it, but their customer wasn't, perhaps because they felt like they shouldn't have been charged for that part (but rather OPs company). Still not OPs fault, though. And OPs manager should have definitely picked up the tab, since they approved his actions in advance.
Have you guys heard the one about Google’s spider destroying a website? The spider doesn’t run JavaScript so it was never required to login to the website and went to all the delete this page links completely deleting it. Very faulty security
Honestly in the expense report story, I could understand if it was a "Strict policy" thing, But the mere fact the customer then complained about the 60 dollar exactly meals tells me it wasnt that
What kind of demon rice is this?! I live in the US and I rinse my rice until it is clear and it isn't 37 times. He probably had MEGA industrial rice and a lot of it too.
My rule of thumb for rice is wash it three times period. If the water's still cloudy it's still cloudy. The point is you got most of that surface starch and any particles from the polishing process (fun fact: most rice is polished to remove the outer layer that would normally make it brown rice) off of the rice. I never quite understood the "until the water's clear" notion because while you are washing rice it is also releasing the starch within the rice grains which, surprise surprise, clouds up the water again.
hi r slash thanks for giving me a good grip on other peoples perspectives and sometimes I forget that and you're like a wake up call for me to remember im just as human and so are the people that might be rude to me or kind
