If I were an evil engineer I’d make retractable benches built into the walls that cost money to pull out. If I were a public official I’d have a subscription package for $60/yr that lets you use all the benches in the city. Must have a valid drivers license to purchase.

The worst thing you can do as an employee is prove to your employer you are not needed. The boss said employee was needed but the employee proved him wrong.

Earn in the context of they put in a lot of hours to finish a project or whatever.

Also don’t mention contracts if you don’t know what you’re talking about. There are plenty of contracts that offer zero pto. Again it’s all context. I swear y’all just want to argue and don’t even read what I’m typing. Business bad people good. That’s the extent of this argument at this point.

You are absolutely right. Again all I’m saying is there is no context. A good business will find a way to accommodate for example hire a temp or seasonal.

Im not saying to not give people off. All I’m saying is there is no context here. From personal experience most people are selfish and there needs to be some kind of structure when giving PTO. Everyone should have an opportunity to be off but many places can’t shut down their business for 2 weeks because the home sports team made the playoffs. Again I’m speaking from experience. Some people need to be told no so that someone else that earned it or asked earlier can be off.

And just to add this but hiring so anyone can be off at anytime is not possible. You are essentially saying it’s ok to discriminate. For example if my business is in a predominantly Christian community many employees will want to be off on Sunday but that is a peak day because after church many people want to eat at my restaurant. Should I then reject any applications from Christian’s so I ensure I am staffed?

How are they hypocritical? They said no and gave what they thought was an appropriate consequence.

There is zero context here and if you were running a business and gave anyone off who asked there would be days you would have to close because you are short staffed. It’s very easy to say from your couch what you would do but when you need your business to provide for your family you think a little differently.

Imo it’s a given that if someone is in the hospital and asked for some PTO I would grant it without question.

All I’m saying is based on the initial scenario there isn’t enough information to say the boss is wrong to fire the person.

This is lacking info. I can think of a lot of scenarios where the boss is justified.

What if the boss had granted some PTO for someone else and this person said FU I’m not coming in either. In that scenario I’d definitely fire them too. If I can’t count on you so I can give other people time off then I don’t need you.

I never liked weed. I just tell my family off when their crossing lines. I don’t have the patience to hear the crazy aunt complain about Biden or another family member. Shut up and be grateful. It’s literally twice a year we have to put up with each other.

You don’t need to glorify weed. You can not like it, it’s ok.

People in general like receiving positive feedback. There is no need to assign feedback to gender roles.

The uk didn’t invent English. The German ancestors did hence the term grammar Nazi.

It’s just a qualifier to insinuate that no one cares about a certain topic and then there’s that one person that brings it up out of no where.

That might get you in the door but a poor resume built by AI with key phrases to fool the algorithm will be an insta delete by a human.

Stop putting cover letters on your resume. Recruiters spend 7 seconds or less on 1 resume. A cover page essentially is a skip button because we don’t see any pertinent information and move on.

Resumes should be 1 page with a layout that attracts attention but isn’t distracting. Sentences should be structured like bullet points, short, sweet, and to the point.

One time I called 911 because I was following a drunk driver that had collided with multiple vehicles and kept driving. The operator asked me what direction so I looked at my maps app and it said I was going west so I told them west and they said “Sir that street doesn’t run west.” I was speechless after that.

Not sure if nafta is still active but I don’t think we can tariff Mexico. Mexico has some good coffee options

And I’m not defending trump at all but I don’t think he has any plans on putting tariffs for South America. I thought it was like only a China thing.

These are all the mascots for insurance companies in the US

Work in a warehouse where boxes open all the time and fall out on the floor. This supervisor found a box of spilled pens and used one of them to write something down and they fired him for stealing 😂. I think they were looking for a reason cuz he was kind of uncontrollable.

Thank you 🙏
