My mom ironed everything that came out of the dryer (and everything that came out of the washer went in the dryer)
- Comment on I ordered my daughter a pizza, something I don't usually do. I got Domino's smallest size with two toppings. I got her cheese sticks and two sauces and tipped the driver 20%. $31.07. 5 days ago:
Next time buy her a large 1 topping and pick it up for $7.99.

- Comment on My mom's doctor be like 6 days ago:
I remember the big arguments about enacting a no smoking rule in meetings at work. Just the meeting rooms. It was of course presumed that people could smoke in their office.
- Comment on My mom's doctor be like 6 days ago:
My mom smoked until her last breath after slowly dying from COPD. I just assume she didn’t quit or slow down any of the times she was pregnant.

My company was acquired last year and the new company basically gave us extra vacation days to “keep us whole”. They also adjusted our salaries to make up for a slight difference in 401k match, etc.

Dude think about it – do you really want to eat pizza that’s been duct taped to the box? I was also working the funny.
- Comment on Fuck the law 1 week ago:
You should have opened the box and taped the pizza down.

Smaller companies are better IMHO. I’ve worked for evil giant software companies (via acquisition) and fairly small companies (~50 employees) and the only thing the big companies do better on is healthcare costs (volume pricing) and believe or not holidays. Maybe companies are just cheapening out but 10 holiday days was the standard. In 2017 I switched jobs and that company only had 6 holiday days a year (and they are terribly cheap in many other ways). I left that job and was back to 10 days. But that company got bought and the place that bought us only has 8 holiday days. At least they gave us 2 additional vacation days to make up for it.

All good!

As I said, they may not have support to pay or provide benefits in the area where they live. So perhaps you need to move to a different state or country but can still work remote. E.g. Maybe I take a remote job with a company in the UK but I decide to live in Glasgow instead of London.
- Comment on How many people actually want fully on-site IT jobs? 1 week ago:
It’s entirely possible that people can work remote but still relocate to an area where the company has a presence. For example, they may not be set up to pay taxes in a certain jurisdiction. For example, my company could not hire Canadian residents until we had a legal entity in Canada. Thankfully we bought a cabadieb firm.
