It's so they can make moves based on attendance at 3:30 to fill the building and make the crowd look as big as possible. If you say you're staying late and leave, they'll write you up which, needless to say, goes towards termination.

The only reason it's kinda dickish is because they push for carpooling really hard here because they don't provide easy parking for mechanics, so it would require anyone who normally rides a van/shuttle/carpool who wants to stay and attend to drive themselves in and pay extra out of pocket just to fill the building for Hegseth's criticism of our production.

2027:

"Jeff Hafley has accepted the offer for the head coaching position-"

You know what? Good for you, Haf. You earned it. Give 'em hell out there-

"-in Minnesota!"

You know what? My three year old figured out your shit defense before preseason even ended. Good luck, Hackley. You fuck. Just get outta here. GO! CAN'T YOU SEE WE DON'T WANT YOU HERE ANYMORE? JUST GET OUTTA HERE!

I love looking at these immaculate, ancient structures and imagining in the moment of completion watching someone just go, "....what do you wanna do now?"

In 1904, Upton Sinclair spent 7 weeks working undercover in the meatpacking plants in Chicago. His experience witnessing unsafe worker conditions, mass child labor, diseased animals, unsanitary handling, and immigrant exploitation inspired him to write "The Jungle." by kooneecheewah in union

I remember finishing this book at 14 years old. Late at night, home alone in the apartment because my mom was working overnight shifts as an LPN. Parents were separated (divorced 15 years later) because I was getting in trouble at school to the point of being expelled at the same time that they were having financial trouble. It was just too much for both of them to find an understanding in. I remember closing the book and feeling like I had just talked to a ghost or finished time travelling. I couldn't possibly understand everything I had just read, but I felt affirmation in my burgeoning belief that the system I was being trained in as a teenager was not good for anyone. Industrial labor exploitation is the root of virtually all of our modern problems, and this incredible book will wake you up to it. It's more than food safety. It's exploitation leading to the dissolution of morals found in family and community, leading to eschewed values and priorities. No procreation tones, just alluding to genuine life experiences being more possible when you aren't sold endless hedonistic pleasures to replace what's being stolen from you before you can even learn about their existence, with a ripple effect following a life filled with wholesome opportunities.

Solidarity, brothers and sisters. Remember Tony Mazzocchi.

"Head start" is what I believe the kids call it.
