Eric? You mean State Informant #1? The rats will abandon ship quicker than you can imagine. First one off gets the best deal.

Whaaaat, you mean that white men whose stated purpose was to shill young girls to other white men solely based on their attractiveness were not, in fact, gentlemen of the highest character? Surely nobody could have guessed.

As sure as grizzly bears like salmon streams, sexual predators will flock to modeling agencies, beauty pageants and similar workplaces; and child sexual predators will flock to youth groups, youth pastoring, and youth sports.

My teen just got her first fast food job and was so flattered when they started to give her tons of hours, wanted to train her on closing, etc., and I put my foot down. Yes, do your job, enjoy the money you make from extra hours, but I don’t think my 16 yr old needs to work a 10-hour day.

I remember on Mad Men, the characters went to the funeral of someone like this—total type A workaholic who traveled all the time, boozed it up, stayed at the office, and so on. They all gave eulogies about what a hard worker he was but how he always remembered to pick up a souvenir spoon or whatever it was for his…

“incentivizing people not to work is “just plain un-American.”

preach. It’s such a valuable lesson not to fall for the trap that your employer is your “friend” or worse, your “family.” Can you make friends or even find a spouse at a job? Absolutely. But your boss, as you aptly pointed out, will cut you loose in a heartbeat if it helps their bottom line. (Imagine my kids’…

IDK what definition of UBI you’re using. But with 28% of households in the US being single people and 30% being married couples without children, there’s nothing universal about this income.

Good luck there. And best wishes to your boss “adjusting” to the idea that her employees care about things other than her business. 

At my first real job, I was obviously eager to prove I was capable and reliable. So I would jump in to volunteer for all the extra projects and late hours. I made friends with a guy a few years older than me who had worked there for a number of years. We were talking in the breakroom one day and I was griping about…

I was hired into a new job during the pandemic and can definitely say I’ve adjusted poorly to the new work culture (my boss is very adamant that work be a “family” and I respectfully disagree lol). I’m a stickler for boundaries, take my breaks and my lunch and log out after my 8 hrs and am no longer available. During…

Gates seems to think because he presents as being an unassuming nerd who’s image is being a benign philanthropist, he should be able to proposition women at work as long as he presents it as their choice. It’s peak willfully obtuse Nice Guy TM behavior. He knows damn well that he is their boss, old enough to be their…

See, Republicans WERE right. There was voter fraud!

There is no even remotely close to okay way for the married boss of a company and the richest person in the world to ask out a subordinate employee at his own company. At worst it’s coercing someone into sex that they cannot refuse. At best it’s creating a hostile environment because the employee has to turn down sexua…

“people are getting hurt through questionable choices involving fuel hoarding”

The inheritance is because she took care of him with no ulterior motives other than to take care of him and everyone else around him was a vulture with the same ulterior motive. 

Agreed. His wife’s statement makes this seem like a sudden, unexpected thing to her, so there is just no way this ends well.  I just hope she doesn’t destroy him. 

This may be unfair but I’m really wary of people who would date someone who JUST got out of rehab. Not making major relationship changes is a pretty standard recovery rule. I don’t think it’s cool to try and broach that when a person is in a vulnerable state. Even if they initiated I feel like it should be a “I like…

Knives Out was badly written? You really want to criticize someone else's writing?
