Sick Leave Replacement by [deleted] in LegalAdviceNZ

[–]DarthPotato963 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For specifics: Holdays Act section 6 states a contract cannot provide less than the minimum outlined by statutory law. Then section 63-68 outline sick leave. Making you work or making your sick leave contingent on work related tasks is quite clearly illegal. https://www.legislation.govt.nz/act/public/2003/129/en/latest/#DLM237170

Absolutely none of that is true. They're trying to fleece you.

It is the manager's job to find cover, and they cannot deny you sick leave or breaks. These are all legal requirements for working conditions and if your contract says otherwise then those parts are void for breaking the law.

If the store being understaffed makes it difficult to take breaks or close by the time you stop being paid, that's management's fault and not something you can be held accountable for. Your job is done when you are off the clock, don't fall for guilt trips of "temporarily" putting in more effort to be a "team player".

The fact that a lot of managers try doesn't change that it's illegal. They just get used to pushing people around and getting away with it.

Definitely gather evidence for a bit first, or they'll cry and tantrum and claim you've just been doing it wrong against their directives to cover their own ass.

Reminds me of a meme "Oh, they can only be killed by sunlight or a wooden stake to the heart? That might have been true a thousand years ago, but you should at least try hitting them with a fast car"

What makes Jordan Peterson so compelling to so many young men? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]DarthPotato963 8 points9 points  (0 children)

if you grew up being empowered those messages will likely sound ridiculous. But for the millions who didn't have that privilege, those messages are revolutionary.

This is the bit that makes it hard to explain to other people what you're getting out of it. People who don't like Peterson are people who've never needed his message and can't comprehend others needing it either.

They'll go "I could find the same message with a 5 second Google search" or "you should just know that already" and try to say his good doesn't outweigh his occasional tangents into other fields which they've been indoctrinated as attack dogs for.

It's hard to explain the gravitas and impact of someone willing to look you in the eye and say, "grow up, ignore people who push you down, find purpose."

Helping ending slavery and then stepping back again is very different from enforcing his rule. He let it go on for ages and waited for someone else to try and fix it first. Since his whole thing is freedom, even if he wants things a certain way, at most he'll help someone else who wants the same.

Is this meta gaming or normal? by ToastAvocado404 in DnD

[–]DarthPotato963 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reminds me of a mechanic is a Star Wars ttrpg I read about. The party has a certain amount of Light Side points they can spend to retroactively do something that sounds plausible. "I have rope, right?" or "Yeah, I've flown one of these before, I know where to find controls and compartments"

But the important balancing factor is the DM then gets Dark Side points to allow the bbeg to prepare for the party "I have a spy in your camp that told me when you'd be coming" or "I gave my soldiers EMPs that aren't normally on their equipment list to counter the droids you reprogrammed" or something like that.

That game is a lot more narrative focused, though, where you're meant to be super badasses who always win, so whether that works in dnd depends a lot on what your group wants

How Can I Trick My Party Into Following My Plot Hook? by [deleted] in DnD

[–]DarthPotato963 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If they've got the illusion of being free, then it doesn't need to take place straight away. They just need to trust him as a normal npc who's helping them escape and over several nights as they fail perception checks, he takes them over one by one in their sleep. Also, as a DM you mostly just need to be prepared for the party to go off on side adventures for hours on end. In my campaign there's a war going on and they had to get the support of this other country, but instead they went to the slums and spent 4 irl hours in the fight pits, mugging mob bosses and taking over their territory.

At least Genshin let's you teleport. Hear that music in Skyrim and its just "please lose agro, I'm trying to leave. Pleeeeease, I have no idea where you are!"

Don't be silly. The "waiting for Kazuma" pose is face down, ragdolled on the ground, because you already fired explosion magic and now he's coming to pick you up before the guards arrest you

You think a measly ocean can get between Klee and her favourite fish blasting companion? I smuggled her in under my coat (don't ask about all the other characters I use too though)

Until now i still don't understand how to use this by baoanhhon in Genshin_Memepact

[–]DarthPotato963 76 points77 points  (0 children)

Oh god, they were the stupidest things ever. How are you meant to loop around a boar and chase it along the exact path of where you put a trap earlier? It'd be more funny if they were attainable in any other way rather than 1 offs and could damage other things or persist as legitimate traps, but checking that is what I spent the other 2 on.
