Sure, I worked at Boeing for about 3 years before I went back to school and got my teaching degree. They would give me 3x or 4x the time I needed to do something. So I’d finish my project in like a week and play God of War and walk around for 3 weeks, and they still thought I was fantastic. They actually had me redo the flight computers for the CH-47 Chiniook, it was insane because people just kept adding random code over 50 years to make things work to the point of it failing due to just the volume and inefficiency. I rewrote most of it in a month and they gave me 6. I’m guessing the guy before he just sucked or milked the hell out of it to give them the expectations.

Laughed because I have a Chihuahua pit mix. It’s like mixing a dog with the fury of 1000 suns with a big head and roided body. But he’s damn cute and fun.

VAT (Value Added Tax) is an indirect consumption tax levied on the value added at each stage of a product’s production and distribution chain. Unlike a traditional sales tax, which is only collected at the final point of sale, VAT is applied at every step, from raw materials to the final consumer.
Businesses act as intermediaries by collecting output VAT from customers and paying input VAT on their own business expenses. To determine their tax liability, businesses deduct the input VAT they have paid from the output VAT they have collected, remitting only the difference to the government. This credit mechanism ensures that the tax burden ultimately falls on the end consumer, who cannot reclaim the VAT paid.
For example, if a manufacturer buys raw materials for $100 plus $10 VAT (input VAT) and sells the finished product for $150 plus $15 VAT (output VAT), they remit $5 to the government ($15 collected - $10 paid). This process repeats at each stage, ensuring the government collects 10% of the value added at that specific step.

That’s what I was thinking. It’s so vague and generalized that they could deny almost any claim.

- Comment on Boomers scolding us about how they were able to buy a house working at a gas station... 1 week ago:
Well, to be fair this in an insanely overpriced area of the United States. If Scandinavia was the size of pretty much the entirety of Europe you’d have price extremes as well.
For example if you look up a similar house in the Midwest of the United States (Illinois, Missouri, Wisconsin, Iowa, ect) this house would be under $200,000.

Nice to meet ya! I think Lemmy is better, but you need to tune it for what your interested in more. The conversations are a lot better, you can usually talk to people with opposing views like an adult and not a toddler.

Frelling good show for the budget if you ask me. Went off the rail in the last seasons though.

Good thing they didn’t explain what it is every single episode intro that they “slide” to parallel universes.

I put my text notification as the porn hub intro music for like a month. You have no idea how many people looked at me in lines different places. It’s like fucking say something and admit you know what it is well enough to recognize if.

Seriously. I taught SpEd BD/LD/Autistic for 20 years. I can’t even get into it because I get so pissed. Parents are fucking garbage then they blame everyone else but themselves for their problems they created. Get fucking over it.
