I don’t buy this bullshit argument and you know it’s a bullshit argument. You know there are more people working in McDonald’s than broke teens only looking for an entry career. You know there are people who are stuck in the shitty life of a McDonald’s employee because there aren’t other opportunities, or they’re…

This is somewhat related, and extremely important.

Not to be that guy* but isn’t this more Ping territory? Ramps and all

That looks great already!

Franken/Ferguson 2020!

Hey here’s a fun thing; consider what kind of world we’d be living in if 2009 had opened with the following headlines.

People forget. People have no institutional memory, no inborn sense of history. The people who are voting away their own affordable care, Social Security and Medicare right now by voting in Republicans, for instance, have no direct experience of the world as it was before the safety net: no memory of old people dying…

I’m solidly middle class quickly moving into upper middle class as a result of a white collar job in real estate/finance. My other two siblings are also quickly moving into upper middle-class. We’re all college educated. But we would not have had the privilege of a secure childhood that allowed us those things had not…

My dad worked for GM, as a union member, for 42 years. Because of the UAW, he was able to buy a house (not a fancy house, but a house), send me to college, and save a modest amount for retirement. We always had good health insurance, food on the table, and a little bit extra for luxuries like movies or going out to…

GOOD FOR DANNY GLOVER!!! After I stopped working for my dad at the age of 20, I worked 20 years for the UAW, then another 20 for a construction union......Union is the only way to go{sorry pops}

What’s really weird about that is that he doesn’t even need it; there’s at least three inches of the narrow half sticking through the loop. What’s even weirder is that he doesn’t know how to roll the tape inside out so he could stick it to the back of the narrow part instead if he simply must use tape.

I have to take a special enhanced course because I work with vendors and am at a “high risk for bribery”.

Every year, I have to take federally mandated anti-corruption and anti-bribery training because of my job. Why don’t these assholes?

I wouldn’t have used “rectified” in my letter in this situation.

Nope. Just not ready to say he is a horrible person person of this film was the only environment where this shit happened. Perhaps he copped to his bad behavior during arbitration. We don’t know what happened on set (other than a disgusting film that intentionally blurred the line between fact and fiction) or after.…

The level of unthinking schadenfreude in this post and in the comments is frankly making me uncomfortable.

His domain name selection reads like a confession.

May I celebrate for a moment?? My artwork showed up in the background of a New Yorker cartoon this week!!!! No big deal...just the culmination of a lifelong dream and the coolest thing ever. Ever ever.

The issue I have with this is anyone I see who has affirmed they will be participating in a strike keeps saying they’ll be “taking the day off” which I take to mean they are using sick or vacation leave. That’s not really a strike. They’re notifying their employer of their intent, they’re being paid for their leave...

“She” and “Persisted” seem unnecessarily capitalized
