I don’t drink milk often. But that article is so bad, like so unbelievably bad, that I want to replace all liquids in my diet with milk out of spite for that writer. If they fired everyone at Jezebel, and contacted the employers of their families and had their family members fired too all because of that article I…

Oh, I rarely complain about non-trivial things, let alone trivial ones. I’m just saying it was my experience that I was able to help more assholes (which is what my manager wanted me to do) than nice people (who I might have gotten in trouble for helping).

I can honestly say that in this case the best way to have her learn is to help her get away with it. Our corrections system is not built around rehabilitation, it’s built around punishment. And people really don’t learn from punishment. Putting her in jail, derailing her life, would have increased the odds or more…

As much as I like to believe this, I think the odds are better at getting free stuff when you complain than when you’re nice. I have never worked in food service but I used to work at a video rental store whose name was identical to “Blockbuster”. I worked there during the late fee era. It was unofficial policy that…

Yeah, I think most people can get on board that you can (but don’t have to) complain if they leave something out. But, from all the facts presented, I think it’s pretty safe to assume that the fries were there and that he is making this stuff up.

They can, but they’d be prohibited from using the injured hand for the rest of the game.

Don’t you think Pelicans fans have been fucked with enough?

The text of the rule quoted below seems to indicate otherwise... Is there another clause?

DownWithPairs give a good answer. I would recommend going with Child Protective Services or whatever the agency is called in your state (in Maryland it’s Department of Social Services). A social worker will manage the case from there...

Hi, I just wanted to say that your response was perfect. You explained why you did wrote it that way in an educational way and supplied a link to support yourself which I appreciated. It can be hard to reply to snarky comments like that in a polite and helpful way...

It may be inelegant. Being respectful sometimes means being inelegant. Using person first language (saying “person with autism” instead of “autistic person”) is way clunkier. But it is the respectful thing to do...

Ok, I’m going to be the douche who defends the school but hear me out. First, people who work in education are a different set then general restaurant customers. Everyone goes to restaurants, including jerks. But most people involved in education do it because they love kids (in a not creepy way (sometimes in a creepy…

I too have worked in the field. I think it’s a little complicated. As is pointed out above you can make more than the minimum and have trouble paying. The school I worked in was a Special Ed school so there were like 100 kids and 15 social workers but even with that ratio of people looking out for families some needy…

In Soviet Russia bun with a slice of cheese eats you... (for lunch?)

I don’t think that the name calling is necessary. Honestly, I can see his point. Some people ate more concerned with having an enjoyable working experience and team glory, both of which would prioritize winning. For others it’s all about stays and individual acclaim. But I think money trumps all.

Maybe, but money being equal I might go with the situation that will make me look better, which would factor in park dimensions. I’m from Baltimore, but I realize it’s easier for us to attract hitters than pitchers because we have a home run park... I also realize it's hard for us to attract anyone because we have a…

Actually, I feel that most players want to play for whoever will pay then the most. Honestly, if I was making tens or hundreds of millions I’d like to think I’d prioritize winning (which would make work more fun) over a few extra million, but that doesn’t seem to happen that often...

It’s all mandals all the time.

Why? I wear what I want. But what I want to wear is influenced by a variety of factors including my desire to be comfortable, my desire to fit in to a certain degree, my desire to not get written up at my job...

Going by your profile picture you aren’t a haggard old man talking about the olden days. But there really isn’t anyway to read your comment without picturing an Abe Simpson esque person delivering it.
