Private Trump, you’re a disgusting fat-body. Your ass looks like about 215 pounds of chewed bubblegum, do you know that?

Thank fuck for the vacuum. The Son of Shark, the Anti-Calculus, Destroyer of Integrals

Just beat it (beat it)

I suppose employee value is for any given company to decide. Companies that determine there is value in having employees onsite, and as we know there are plenty of them out there, may place more value on their in-office employees–even if they allow certain positions to be remote.

From what I’ve seen many remote advocates don’t want to discuss the extra benefits they receive from working remotely as compared with their in-office peers, but it’s true nonetheless.

I say all this not because I’m anti-WFH, but because I advocate equal compensation for all employees. Folks who expect equal pay while also having zero or reduced commute burden are thinking only of themselves as I see it. Commuting is a pain in the ass, the costs are always rising, and it’s been a problem that employers have passed on to workers for entirely too long. So as long as employees find ways like WFH to mitigate the problem, all employees should benefit in some way. Fair is fair for all, not just some.

Because remote employees don’t spend their own time and money on commuting to work. Those factors, along with saving on childcare, are the main drivers for desire to work remote, yes?

A company can reduce its office footprint to account for fewer in-person employees and save money. But that alone doesn’t address the factors above faced by employees who commute, so those workers should be compensated.

Maybe that’s the approach for hiring…remote employees are hired with the understanding that they will earn less than equivalent in-office employees. Commute time, transportation expenses, and any other incidentals make up the difference. It’s all made clear and transparent upfront.

If remaining remote limits an employee’s promotability for reasons of company need, this is also made clear.

Done, I’ll use the guidelines if I post again. Take care!

This is what they do. They get out ahead of bad news for him by announcing it themselves and downplaying the wrongdoing. They seek to control the narrative, normalize what he did, and plant seeds of doubt. When the consequences hit, his supporters will be outraged due to all this brainwashing.

I think they’re setting the stage for more Jan. 6 events.

I think holding a grudge is not good for anyone. However, remembering details about who wrongs you and over what is important–you take measures to avoid letting them take advantage of you again. They have damaged your trust in them.

Your trust level in people should reflect how they’ve treated you. It should be possible to earn back trust over mistakes when someone truly regrets wrongdoing, but people should understand that this takes time and consistency. Anyone who doesn’t understand this is not worthy of your trust.

I think the article was updated since this post was made:

Trump already faced 31 counts of illegally retaining national defense information, but prosecutors have added a 32nd to the list. That count centers on a now-infamous conversation Trump allegedly had at his golf club and summer residence in Bedminster, N.J., in July 2021, focused on what has been described by others as a secret military document concerning Iran.
In that conversation, which was recorded, Trump allegedly said: “As president I could have declassified it. … Now I can’t, you know, but this is still secret.”

Pretty damning.

If it existed, was proven safe, and was widely available enough for anyone to use, then of course.

The auto and airline industries would collapse, reducing pollution and global warming.

The biggest downside I can think of offhand is that everyone could vacation wherever they like, and that would quickly overcrowd and ruin all the nice places.

So much so that he’ll set aside the ethic and moral standards he and all those “God-fearing, law-abiding, patriotic people in this country” profess to uphold.

You give him too much credit, he didn’t write the song. In fact, he only wrote four songs from his ten albums, most recently in 2009. Like most of his country contemporaries he’s not an artist, just a pandering performer.

She doesn’t have any sense at all, does she? She has no business even running a bake sale. I’ll never understand why so many choose to be represented by morons.

Yes, good, let the projection flow through you

You might try Exofficio. While I can’t speak on their traditional boxers or briefs, their boxer-briefs are great imo. They’re comfortable and breathable.

And durable–I’ve had several for over 6 years and the only thing showing wear is the waistband–buy this is definitely a reflection on me because I got lazy and gained weight.

I originally heard of them from a reddit bifl thread, where I also discovered Darn Tough socks. I vouch for both brands and use them exclusively.

In addition to other points, the election machine wants it this way. Advertisers, lawyers, staff, venues, news organizations, and all the other hangers on make good money from the nonsense.

So I agree with you, changes are completely necessary. I just don’t see how when the money makers pay off those who could make real changes.

It seems significant that a GOP controlled committee is looking into one of their own. If he’s found in violation he should not only be removed from office, but also tried and convicted. Think he’d worry then?

I think having a rule against considering lifetime warranties is taking it too far. If a company believes in its product to the extent they offer lifetime replacement, it stands to reason that consumers can “buy it for life”.

Sure there will be schemers who offer this deal to make short-term money, knowing full well they plan to fold. That’s why I think it’s important to look at both the product and company history before shelling out on something, and all of that makes for good discussion around here.

Criticism for being exposed using shithead tactics should be humiliating. But I’m neither a politician nor a conservative, so I guess I’m not supposed to understand.
