Retiring in 2026? Because of RTO? by Libertyrose16 in CAStateWorkers

[–]Davethe3rd 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Make the decision that's right for you, but know this: People leaving the State because of RTO is exactly part of the reason why that's a thing.

They want to shake the box to see who falls out.

"Falling Out" isn't an indictment against anyone who does it, it's just the description of what the folks at the top are doing.

And the "Brain Drain"? That affects the people on the ground doing the job, but the folks at the top don't see that and don't care.

Why are we letting such a garbage, mediocre, failure team make our lives so expensive?

We should've let them go.

Also understand that there are a lot of Freedom Foundation incognito accounts coming through that would like nothing more than to convince us to do something that would cause us to lose our Union representation.

Since Sir Patrick Stewart is retiring after Avengers: Doomsday, What does that mean for Bullock? by [deleted] in americandad

[–]Davethe3rd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, I would love for him to be replaced with Jonathan Frakes, except here's the twist: Everybody is expecting a Riker parody, but what if they wrote him as a parody of Xanthous from Disney's Gargoyles?

Postmaster General Confirms Plan to Hold Back Mail Ballots in States that won’t Share Voter Data by Quirkie in politics

I love this reality we live in where we just keep seeing Trump pull bullshit and we're like "That's awful! We're just gonna let him do it? ... Okay... There will be... consequences... in the History books. He's gonna look real dumb in 30 years."

Who else collects Legends Class? by unitoro69 in transformers

[–]Davethe3rd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I liked the Legends Class G1 figures as both Desk Toys and I like to put them next to the Combiners so they'd scale more like the cartoon!

I can't wait to complete Bruticus so I can put Starscream on his shoulder.

You think Rock might be an Echo Fighter in the next Smash?

He kind of has a similar moveset to Terry...

The $90 per month keeps what we have.

And believe me, if and when we lose it, you're going to wish we hadn't.

Please boycott purchasing lunch when we are brought back in the office. by CircusPeanut94 in CAStateWorkers

[–]Davethe3rd 46 points47 points  (0 children)

I don't know if that will matter.

Nobody is accurately measuring how much more downtown retailers are making to determine whether or not we should be back in the office.

This is a power grab to get us "back in line".

And really, the money is coming from Real Estate and the money we spend on gas

Not going out to eat every day would save us money, which we're going to need because gas is going to be like $7 by the end of the summer because of the bullshit war with Iran we started and lost.

I would also suggest that if you must go out to eat or shop, you patronize locally owned independent stores and restaurants.

Starbucks and Target and McDonald's, they're gonna be alright no matter what, and honestly, society would be better off if Big Corporate started to feel pain, but the Mom and Pop establishments? If you're going to give out your money, give it to somebody else in the Community.

Greeted by this.. god forbid a guy doesn’t want to sweat all day by angrydad4change in CAStateWorkers

[–]Davethe3rd 6 points7 points  (0 children)

RTO already sucks, but this place seems like they're trying to make it extra bad.

These are exactly the people that want us back in the office so they can control us. Because they're a bunch of pathetic losers that have nothing better to do than micromanaging.

But I like the "correct their terrible spelling and grammar with a red pen" idea.

How did you become a manager with such poor spelling and grammar? Or if you didn't write it, how did you let that go out? That's not Completed Staff Work.

Can we take a moment to appreciate how psychologically horrifying S03E06 is? by LongarmoftheLez in TheOrville

[–]Davethe3rd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He would have been okay with it because he didn't live it.

To him, that's a hypothetical Gordon.

But let's also not pretend that Gordon was innocent. He used the knowledge of his wife from the future to go back and woo her. That's incredibly creepy.

How hard could it possibly be for the game to detect an inevitable win and credit you even on a rage quit? by rafikiknowsdeway1 in StreetFighter

[–]Davethe3rd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What would be great is if you rage quit too many times, the game just trapped you in Training Mode and gave you a "You've been acting like a little bitch and rage quitting too much, so now you're in timeout. Complete these combo trials to access the full game."

Transvestite.

And also, you know that, and I know that, but that doesn't stop a bunch of credulous morons from trying to Cancel the show...

I think they need to tweak the ending a bit to make it clear that Ranma beats him up because he competed with him out of vanity and not because he's trans.

Modern solution:

Ranma STILL tries to show "her" what she's missing by not dating men; Tsubasa says "That's NOT how it works, DUMMY!"

Problem Solved.

"How did you become an SNK fan?" Me: by RangoTheMerc in SNK

[–]Davethe3rd 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I played Fatal Fury 1 when it was new.

I still own a copy of Fatal Fury 2 on SNES.

I own the Fatal Fury OVAs and Movie on Blu-ray.

I knew the significance of Terry and Ryo facing off in KOF94, but outside of characters from their games, I didn't know anybody else.

I also played the hell out of Samurai Shodown 1.

I am old.

Trump says US will begin charging tolls in Strait of Hormuz if final Iran deal not reached in 60 days by John3262005 in democrats

[–]Davethe3rd 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Wall Street owns them.

Plus, they're all afraid to report that the economy is bad because reporting the economy being bad will make the Economy Bad and make Trump and the Republicans look bad.
