I think some people are judging Fred Rogers a little too harshly and not considdering the time of the event. It was the late 1960s, could Fred have done BETTER? I mean, yes, he could have drawn an outright line in the stand and stood up unquestionably for the gay staffer. ...I also probably would never have been…

LOOK AT ME. I DO NOT DRINK ALCOHOL. I COMMENTED ON THIS POST PURELY TO ANNOUNCE THAT I DO NOT CONSUME ALCOHOL. LOOK AT HOW I DO NOT CONSUME IT. GAZE UPON MY SUPERIORITY!
Are you maybe confusing it for that flash based 2D Half-Life platformer? Or maybe I’m confused there. Codename: Gordon I think?
Ohhh... Okay, see, I wasn’t thinking that footage of a player, from ANOTHER players perspective, being streamed would be considered the first player’s ‘Content’ to anyone, so that’s why I was like ‘Buh?’
“You stole my fucking content.”
Yahoo, not Amazon, it was picked up by Yahoo. ‘Yahoo had video streaming!?’ you ask, yes, we all asked the same question when Community was picked up by Yahoo.
So... Delete that Facebook photo of you bed covered in money, huh?
So, in all seriousness, I wonder how well people would cope with that. If lottery winners are any example, a good portion of people are pretty short thinking in the face of windfalls.
I mean MAYBE the bill numbers are flagged so you might want to not directly deposit that money into your bank account. I’d say keep the cash and sit on it till a busy shopping holiday and then spend it. It’ll be mixed in with millions of Black Friday dollars.
Looks like we’re actually both right sorta, but my answer is region specific. Looking it up in BC it’s Citizens and PR’s only. Where as Ontario, where I live, it includes any working visa longer than 6 months.
Also, considering that PR’s can’t VOTE, I wouldn’t call them ‘Basically Canadian’, being unable to engage in…
But this isn’t the employees fault. It’s managements failure which they solve with brute force effort and the increased cost of overtime pay and the decreased productivity as people wear out.
This is not true. Permanent residents and most on working visa also receive coverage. Though I don’t think there are any students. Basically anyone legally ‘working’ in Canada, longer than 6 months, plus their families who are also legally in the country, are eligible.
I live in Ontario, not BC, and different things are covered by different provinces. But yeah my benefits package covers things like dental, eyecare, chiropractor, long term disability above what the province would pay, life insurance, prescriptions, hearing aids, hospital room upgrades, a transportation benefit if I’m…
This is why I’m happy to be at a VFX company that does a lot less OT. But at the last company I was making a LOT of extra money that I put to good use but the ‘big OT cheques’ are no longer a real incentive with everything paid off. And yeah, I’ve liked nearly all of my coworkers... Managers not always, but the other…
Visual effects for film and television. We’re basically all nerds. Though overtime can be a huge problem. At my previous employer I did 370hrs of OT in 2016 for example... Plus 26hrs of work on stat holidays. It was all PAID at 1.5x but I have some lasting ‘scars’ from that many hours. >.< My current employer is a lot…
I think the trick is to not leave the audience asking ‘Will they or won’t they truly acknowledge their feelings, or just sometimes almost kiss before being interrupted and saying they hate each other for 13, 26, 56, or a million episodes. D:’
Some guys had ‘boobie figures’ on their desks so that was my counter. :3
My workplaces have literally had Hogwarts house and GoT family flags hanging from the windows, people with Digimon minis over their desks, someone had the USS Lakota (What a very specific Excelsior Class to have on your desk) and even my desk was covered with figurines of cross dressing anime boys which I called ‘The…
I’m in love with this show probably just because I’m an adult nerd (And Fujoshi. >.> ) and it’s about adult nerds (Half of whom are Fujoshi. >.>). It’s just so refreshing to see an anime where the characters can drink, have jobs and aren’t doing an episode where they cram for exams. And they KISS in the third episode.…
Fact: If I saw this costume at a convention, I would grab a pan and chase them around while making excited ‘Swedish’ jibberish.
