This happened at my work with internal docs as we switched from an ancient intranet to a new service that had a ton more features but no backwards compatibility so all the pages got updated to PDFs with helpful links that went nowhere and it caused chaos for like 3 months.

It’s an older meme sir, but it checks out.

And Trump just copied the slogan from Reagan anyway.

What a refreshing meme use. Makes me want a beer actually.

I was a mod of a decent sized sub until an admin came in and…somehow…convinced the top mod to make the admin top mod. Left a bad taste in my mouth for sure.

I’ve been applying to some jobs and the remote jobs are getting so many applications while the Hybrid/on-site in my area are not. Obviously the talent pool is larger for the remote jobs, and that means better candidates.

Kinda crazy that people are picking worse candidates they can see every day over better candidate further away.

Congrats on your sobriety.

If it’s a big corporation there is probably a President but it’s the same person as the COO or something. If it’s smaller the owner might be the President even if they don’t actually work. If it’s even smaller maybe there used to be a President or maybe they’re just quirky.

36 hour shift in a 36 hour week actually sounds kind of cool. Kill yourself for 2 days and have 5 days off. Would definitely not want to do 36hrs in 2 days and then proceed to have 15 hour days for the rest of the week too.

The wealth of all 2660 billionaires combined is $12.2 Trillion. Spread that wealth around to everyone in the world and every single person, including the billion people who live on less than $1/day, would get $1,550.

This is part of every tight labor market, the marginally attached come back in when the employer is willing to pay up.

Imagine someone retired for 6 months and then a big project comes up at their old employer…they might go back, but it better be for 30% more or something.

It’s what this leadership was elected on, so it makes sense. I’m actually surprised and impressed at the solidarity of getting rid of the tiers, theoretically the non-tiered people could get a better deal if they left the tiers and prioritized other things. But that’s part of it I think, the tiers turn the union against itself in some ways.

That is a bad survey question. It’s wrong to equate jobs that involve little social/community value with fully useless “bullshit” jobs.

Anyone in sales is not helping the community, they are selling a product or service to make themselves and their company money. They often do a ton of actual work and make a ton of change, but it’s business competition, not social change. And it’s the same for a lot of jobs. They are doing work and would be noticed if they were gone, it’s just in the service of economic growth and not social change.
