My main problem with her on survivor was that she was pretty obviously being kept around because other people thought she was weak and not a threat, and then she acted like she was a bad ass for lasting so long.

Thank you. They keep trying to make Hough happen but should have given up a long time ago.

My heart breaks for Enjorlas

Aaron Tveit deserves better than this. He really does.

I’m not saying that she wasn’t pushed out, but I have been told by a few moms that sometimes it’s more important, and/or rewarding, to be at home with the kids when they are a little older and need some guidance as opposed to supervision. I would not survive staying home all day with a toddler, but being there to help…

Well, it’s only fitting. She’s been telling other women that’s their proper place for years.

Her kids are older now, no? I am loving that she won’t be on TV any longer (even though I don’t watch to begin with) but suspect her reason is BS.

That’s very sad when someone has to scrounge a few dollars worth of cans to supplement their paltry wages. Shame on you, WalMart.

My day job is in a state’s unemployment agency. By law, I can’t provide specifics, but I’d guess that at least 40% of the true WTF stories I have involve Walmart.

I know I shouldn’t be (as I’ve lived a long enough to have seen it regularly) but I’m constantly amazed at the mean streak and lack of empathy a huge portion of our population seems to suffer from. Are they lacking some part of their brain that allows them to put themselves in someone else’s shoes?

I got fired from Barnes & Noble for using a gift card that had like 2 dollars left on it after a customer left it for me. I was told anything given in the store belongs to the store.

Buy if he’d taken them out of the cart (so customers don’t have to use carts with empty beer cans in them) and thrown them in the trash, that would be fine, right? Because it’s not like Wal-Mart wanted them. Wal-Mart just didn’t want him having them. Logically.

Loving that you put this up after the Kardashian push present post.

So, you’re saying a woman who was the best thing that ever happened to you, couldn’t have children...so you left. Adoption is an option these days, you know. I hope she was understanding and sympathetic to your needs. And that in no way she was made to feel bad about her inability to have children, which i am sure she…

I remarked to my girlfriend after she heard about this story that “if I ever get that kind of brain damage from anything, please, pull the plug. I don’t want to survive that.”

To which she said “if I found out you got brain damage after a night in a whorehouse, I’d gladly pull the plug.”

Valid question, sure, but the whole debate, the day after? Bleagh.

While I think it’s a valid debate question, I’m inclined to agree. We aren’t going to hear anything new here. It will be “our hearts go out to Paris,” “we condemn terrorism,” “we stand by our allies,” peppered by maybe more focus on improving intelligence just to add a sheen of substance, but I doubt any candidate…

But as the article says, ROWE doesn't work for every position. I think it's more appropriate for office jobs and creative jobs (one part of the article explicitly says "knowledge workers"), where such nitpicking about a minute here and there is just that - nitpicking.

Regarding the nitpicking over "getting to work five minutes late" - many of the jobs listed in the first paragraph are service jobs based around shifts, meaning that when you're late for your shift, the person you're supposed to relieve has to stay late. It's really inconsiderate to your co-workers to be late on a…
