Bubs

The people with no or few friends tend to be weird but not really bad in any meaningful way: socially awkward, shy, odd interests, neurodivergent etc. Difficult to get to know, plain and simple.

*Raises hand*

Just a little tidbit to add:

One of the common reasons I’ve seen trunk-or-treats, instead of traditional door-to-doors, is due to dangerous neighborhoods. One community had a high crime rate, so the local church set up a trunk night so parents could bring their kids and feel safer.

New complain is this:

In a complaint filed Friday, the NLRB’s Los Angeles office said the tech giant imposed “numerous” unlawful rules on workers, including confidentiality agreements, non-disclosure policies, non-compete policies, misconduct policies, and social media policies that violate the National Labor Relations Act.

This is a fun extra from last year:

In June of 2023, the NLRB regional office in Oakland, California filed a complaint against Apple alleging the company illegally fired, disciplined, threatened, and interrogated an employee for engaging in protected union activity at its headquarters in Cupertino, California. And in December 2022, the agency’s Atlanta office accused the company of interrogating employees and forcing them to attend anti-union meetings. Both of those cases are awaiting rulings from NLRB administrative law judges.
