I've only ever been to one IKEA, but at least for that one, there were somewhat subtle but definitely visible holes in the walls and displays to allow you to cut through the maze.

ETA: Also - again, for that one - if you know what particular item you want, you can find that item's location on the website and go straight to the warehouse to grab the item off the shelves.

You can escape the wildcards as an alternative.

The first time I heard anything by Ratatat, I was driving past a road named "Ararat Rd." It's a dumb connection to make, but it still makes me chuckle.

In theory, Ross Scott is (or at least was) trying to get something done about this. https://youtu.be/tUAX0gnZ3Nw?si=acNlZLK8MRqKWwgh

I believe that Reolink cameras plus an NVR allow, but don't require, completely offline recording.

I don't think you failed.

I know the name, but essentially nothing else of him, and did not realize that this was him or a real ad. I thought it was a reference to the boneitis guy.

That said, thank you for indirectly explaining this to me.

I've been told that generally, this is so the company doesn't have to pay you back for unused PTO if you leave the company.

I can't vouch for this as true, but it makes sense.
