I lost my job on Wednesday, so, the rest of this week has mostly been about that. I’m torn because while I know I made some stupid mistakes and was not giving the position my all, I also felt from the beginning that I wasn’t given adequate guidance in my role and had almost zero feedback or oversight. I know that some…

I have pretty much had all I can take of Big Foot’s attitude today. She went to court earlier in the week which amounted to me signing a paper and filling out a form to be assigned an attorney. I drove more than two hours to sit in a room for 5 minutes. And now the attitude has kicked in- she sold her shoes to her…

Shockingly, making something illegal does nothing to keep the workers marginalized by those laws safe and protected from workplace violence and employer/client abuses.

I’m disappointed in my fellow women.

I don’t get this reasoning because being able to afford food but not a drink is the result of bad financial planning. If there is indeed such a great need to give back, why not partner with the owner to spend a day for charity, or for the restaurant to sponsor a local sports team/shelter?

So let me get this straight. People came to IHOP to eat, but cannot afford a $1.50 refillable soda?

“Me and the owner weren’t seeing eye-to-eye.”

I have little sympathy for that jeep driver. Pay better attention next time! And maybe leave a little bit more following distance.

Oh man, that kid. I feel so sorry for that kid. You also missed the part where he was black and gay. And super pro-Trump, because he believed Trump was the only pro-gay candidate, and then even after Trump came out against gay marriage the kid still supported him.

I don’t think it’s a question of intelligence; I think it’s one of caring. She will never need an abortion or social welfare benefits, so in her mind those issues are unimportant. It’s like when I hear about how tax plans affect people with a lot of investment income — that’s not me and it’s never going to be me, so…

I’m beginning to think she’s not very intelligent.

Yes, it might make it easier to compare, but at this point, most people expect that most airlines charge fees for stuff like checked baggage. This bill, if passed, will make it harder for “low cost” carriers like Spirit to keep their prices low. They are an example of an airline that uses the fees as a way to…

While this sounds great, if this passes, all that will happen is the fees go away and the base prices go up to cover the difference. The airline industry has been enjoying huge profits lately and they will not want that to end. Right now, all these fees help to subsidize the base ticket prices.

It was going to be a no-win situation anyways with the native Americans and magical America. Don’t bring them up, and you’re erasing them. Draw upon native traditions, and you’re appropriating them. Make some shit up entirely, and you’re caricaturing them.

100% uncontroversial take:

The domestics already make better cars than VW. This has nothing to do with lobbyists and everything to do with flaunting environmental regulations. Do you really think the EPA only targets foreign firms?

No, that’s what most of Europe does knowing the US is footing most of your defense bill.

How about just giving everyone way more vacation time that carries over. I’m not going to have children and it seems unfair that if I made a life choice that required me to miss 6 months of work I’d lose my job while my coworker wouldn’t.

I have coworkers who leave work early or don’t come in at all because they have to do something for their kids and they get upset when I give them the same treatment as someone who misses work from a hangover or leaves early to catch a movie. We all have lives. Yours isn’t suddenly more important than the rest of ours…

How do other countries finance it? Is it part of their healthcare or are the private businesses on the hook? I can see making it a part of comprehensive healthcare, but making individual businesses pick up the tab seems shitty. Not all employers are a Fortune 500 company. And if a woman has six kids should the public…
