I agree with what I saw someone else post. They want people to quit. Blindly forcing RTO is a way to bully employees without being legally "hostile”.
If you quit, you can’t draw unemployment.
The company’s HR apparently still has to approve it even if you are eligible, but it’s at least potentially an option.
What is a “tankie”? I’ve never heard of that before.
I’m autistic. I always apparently seem weird to people. That means any time I use a self checkout, the minders stare at me because they think I’m about to steal something. It makes me nervous, and I start getting uncomfortable and self conscious, which I’m sure makes me seem even more suspicious. And either security or the automated system have triggered the “please wait for an associate” so many times. But they always look at the video and tell me “Sorry, this thing is just sensitive/weird/whatever excuse.”, then leave me alone.
I’m not going to call it discriminatory, because I don’t think it is? But it feels like I have to be on my best behavior or I’ll get arrested because I was so focused on trying to pass as “normal” that I missed scanning a tomato. And for the record, I’ve never stolen anything, even when I was low on food and really needed some stuff I couldn’t afford. Hell, I have forgotten to scan something once and went back in to pay for it.
Self checkout sucks, but it’s normally still better than waiting in line and interacting face to face with a cashier.
Am missing something about my chosen-on-a-whim instance?
“I’m not wrong, it’s everyone else’s fault for not seeing how great I am.”
You have me curious.
I only have Linux on my machine, and have been an advocate for FOSS for many years. But even then I have to begrudgingly admit Windows does some things better. I don’t see why anyone would get all bent out of shape about that. Yeah, evil corporation and massive privacy issues, but that doesn’t change its technical merits.
What was it that people got upset over if you don’t mind sharing?
Holy shit, you’re right.
We’re playing permadeath on the easiest level, and failing.
Or just refuse to install it.
I got some boxes with "x"s in them. Sad.
Still very much worth it, even full price. I haven’t played it for years, and I still think about it. It’s kind of like Outer Wilds in that respect. Small, but very rich experience. I think there’s a DLC out too.
Despite how much I agree, I think there’s one point worth driving home.
They ARE normal human beings. That’s the entire problem. Normal human variety includes self centered pieces of shit as much as it includes selfless heros.
That’s why voting and staying involved in politics matters. If you aren’t constantly trying to keep these assholes out of power, you lose.
Don’t fall for the comfortable lie that genocide and dictators are rare and “can’t happen here”. That’s precisely how they end up happening.
Dude shares the name of an ex. The headline threw me for a loop.
Oats with butter, sugar, cinnamon. Loved that as a kid.
It would be interesting, but is it true? I would tell you nay.
I mean, in a pinch you can get away with just butter and salt. Oats taste fine by themselves, it’s just really boring after two bites.
EDIT: I am not a horse.
I would have an exploding corkscrew penis. I’ll find ways to entertain myself.
I see you’re a person of culture.
He’s so persecuted. Guys, guys, be nice to Elon. He’s just the victim here. There’s no way these strikes are a direct response to his policies and business practices.
Poor thing.
I mean, marketing is bullshit, so I don’t blame people for not caring about product names.
I’ve had “fire hot” and “thermonuclear” hot sauces that were barely hot.
I’ve had “unlimited” data plans that were limited.
I’ve had cereal that’s “part of a balanced breakfast”, but only if you eat half a dry cup in skim milk with no other sugar in your meal.
People are used to marketing lying to them about everything. Not saying they shouldn’t pay attention, but not gonna blame them for assuming the name of a drink is just bullshit.
