ugh. yes. I used to travel for an advertising company and I came back and filled out the reimbursement forms. The owner of the company told me the budget was tight that month and they could either pay me back for the money i incurred on my business trip, or pay me my salary... not both... as we walked to his brand new

Ugh. I represented a group of workers who just wanted a week paid vacation. The week I filed charges, the company owner sent out a Christmas letter, with pictures of his brand new marble floors in his mansion.

I worked for a printing/marketing company a few years back. The company was struggling and everyone had their pay cut by 10%. My $10/hr went to $9/hr. The owner let us know right before he and his wife went to Germany for a few weeks while he had his custom BMW built there. SMH.

Particularly because having a good and well-paid staff made it easier for her to do her job. It’s kind management and it’s also pragmatic management.

This is one of the big reasons that inequality has grown so much. American workers are (though a mix of technology and “culture”) more and more productive each year, earning companies more and more money, but their pay rate has not increased to match these improvements in productivity, so the money moves to the top.

A huge paycheck for an executive is very, very rarely worth the expense of a staff of good, happy, talented workers with a low rate of turnover. I think that there are many companies that would have a better bottom line if they realized this.

The whole thing was touted as being very transparent, and all suggestions for cuts were going to be made by teams of staff and faculty. We spend a year and a lot of damn money on this

Big deal.

This is the kind of heroism that literally every single American CEO should be capable of:

So many things wrong with this argument. First of all, what is “normal women”? Given that they’re not testing for elevated testosterone unless you’re flagged (likely by winning), there’s no evidence that anyone on the field has less than elevated testosterone. And since hormone levels exist along a range in all women

The first. The latter is perfectly fair, provided she’s naturally producing the testosterone.

I love wild n out, you monster. I know its scripted and corny as hell but it makes that elliptical time fly by. and one time they made Kevin Hart sit in a children’s car seat and he fit and it was hilarious.

Aw, remember when this was called Wild n Out?

Gasp!

I never understand this argument. Superheroes with magic powers that include flying, layers shooting from the eyes, gamma radiation that doesn’t kill you, turning into any or beast that has ever walked the Earth, controlling weather, etc.=totally believable and accepted.
