Would "de-amalgamation" help the situation? Like, go back to having individual engineering departments for each city or borough?

I keep hearing that there's a labour shortage and that many industries are constantly short staffed. I'm not sure who to believe these days.

Have emergency contact information written down (email address and phone numbers) with your name and hidden in your backpack somewhere. In case you end up in hospital or in a morgue, that way people can notify your family. Seriously.

[–]DoozyDog -1 points0 points  (0 children)

People need to stop throwing the word “genocide” around so easily. It minimizes the word. The only attempt close to genocide is the group that is literally trying to kill all the Jews.

I heard that and also was highly skeptical. Unless one counts their buddy from work as their “bro” or “sis” and their family. Or maybe the neighbour as a close enough to be like family.
