  Bad form and swinging at it like it’s a baseball instead of making a chip shot.

  [Not] fun fact: US dropped 7.6 million tons of bombs on Vietnam. So damned close.

  If I die and find myself at the pearly gates soup counter, only to be told, “No soup for you! You come back one year five hundred years!” I’m going to be pissed that the Catholics were right the whole damn time.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Calm your tits⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This reminds me of a buddy I used to have. He wore jackets exactly like this and even had two little dogs. He was a Vietnam vet and did, in fact, kill a whole bunch of people during the war. Something he never forgave himself for.

  One time I asked him what that was like. He thought for a minute and said, “When you have your weapon trained on someone, for a split second you have the power of God in your hands. You get to decide if that person lives or dies. Nobody should have that kind of power.”

  He was a character but a good dude overall.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Corporate management is now too lazy to even physically go to locations now.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh that’s not new. I worked for a small utility (7 locations, < 300 employees). I was based at corporate but expected to routinely make visits to the other facilities. One time the CEO happened to be at an office the same day I was. No sooner had he walked out the door when four other people stuck their heads in the office I was working into to ask, “Who was that?”

  They genuinely had no idea who the guy was. Not surprising though. He was the type of executive who thought his employees did not deserve the privilege of his attention for any reason. If you wanted to talk to him, you had to basically ask for the privilege of being summoned to his office. If he didn’t like what you had to say, you would be written up.

  The people who “lead” (if you can call it leading) like that have no business being in leadership positions.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hell nah brah⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Interesting. I guess I must not talk to people on the phone a lot because I hadn’t really experienced that much before.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hell nah brah⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  One of the strangest things, to me anyway, that came out of the pandemic is this habit of texting/messaging people to ask if you can call them. I’m not saying it’s right or wrong. It’s just an interesting change in communication dynamics.

  It sort of makes sense for Teams, Slack, etc. where even if the person is available, they may not be prepared to receive a call for technical reasons. But a lot of people do the same thing for phone calls.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Member when all it took to lose the confidence of the American People was too much enthusiasm?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  To me it seems like the DNC has kept with the strategy of pushing the candidate that they feel has the most cross-party broad appeal. Both parties used to do that to a point. Republican’s really began to pivot hard in the late 80’s-90’s.

  Now we’re at the point where there the GOP has embraced a cult of personality and anyone with half a brain or any moral fiber has either abandoned or effectively been exiled from the party. If Democrats were going to secure any more of those votes, they would have already done it. The third way Democrats are DOA whether they want to accept it or not.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Human Condition⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Look at me. I’m a human. I pay taxes, I have depression.

  Ha! So relatable.

  I’m behind on chores.

  Ok, why did you have to bring that up? I said I would get to it. Stop reminding me already!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Oof. That hits in the feels a little. I’ve told my wife that I hope she outlives me. Maybe it’s a little selfish in a way but I honestly think she could handle being alone better than I could. She’s like my center of gravity. The person who keeps me grounded. I’m not sure what I would do without her.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Jamie Dimon popped off at the 1,200+ JPMorgan employees fighting against full-time RTO: 'I don’t care how many people sign that petition'⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve had it with this stuff,” Dimon said during the town hall, according to Barron’s. “I’ve been working seven days a goddamn week since COVID, and I come in, and—where is everybody else?

  Let me make sure I understand this. You’re the chief executive of the world’s largest bank. You have vast resources and an army of other executives at your disposal. What exactly is so urgent that you have to work 7 days a week and why is that anyone else’s problem?

  Wall Street treats Jamie Dimon like he’s some sort of guru but it sounds to me like he’s an fucking idiot whiney baby who doesn’t manage his time wisely or recognize that he got to where he is on the backs of his employees.

  1. Build an “AI” platform (by stealing work from basically everyone).
  2. Lie your ass off about its capabilities.
  3. Stage an IPO.
  4. Profit.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Back at a time when I naively worked 80+ hours every week, I had a doctor lecture me about slowing down saying, “if you want to have a heart attack at 50, keep doing what you’re doing.”

  Naturally, I ignored that advice. What made me stop was the realization that my employer did not care about all the nights and weekends that I gave up for them. It was totally meaningless to them. Just as meaningless as OP’s nights and weekends are to their boss.

  She said she made Instagram, tiktok accounts and whatever for all of them as soon as possible so they have the “good” usernames and it’s their birthday present when they turn 12.

  Geez. No better birthday present than an impending mental health crisis. My wife and I watched, with regret, what early access to smart phones and social media did to our oldest and decided that her younger siblings can buy their own smart phones when they’re adults. Not going to repeat that mistake.

  Lol. JK. You’re going to be a wage slave until you die, probably during the climate change induced famine.
