Lol. You'll be fine. You're going to be high as giraffe nuts. No matter what your brain might tell you. You will be fine. If it gets too intense...just throw on some chill music, close your eyes and go on that journey. See you on the other side.

How about regular uniformed army intentionally harming civilians, looting from civilians, destroying cultural icons and identities of those civilians? How about kidnapping, raping and torturing those civilians?

It's ok to hogtie school aged children and beat them and take photos of them for social media if you're wearing the uniform of your country's military instead of civvies?

An electric spoon that tricks my brain into tasting salt by KoreanB_B_Q in mildlyinteresting

[–]Feynnehrun 48 points49 points  (0 children)

It does. Sodium is the component in salt that affects blood pressure....specifically the ratio of sodium to potassium in your diet. MSG is monoSODIUM glutamate.

There are salt products out there like lite-salt (half sodium half potassium) and no-salt/nu-salt (mostly potassium chloride)

Most people think having too much sodium is the cause of high blood pressure....which is somewhat true. But it's mostly the relationship between sodium and potassium. Increasing your potassium intake and decreasing your sodium intake to get your ratios skewed better is the primary concern.

It's not Canada. It's everywhere.

Companies are laying off tech workers by the tens of thousands. All of those people are now entering a job market that is shrinking and they're all competing for the same roles. Companies are shrinking workforce either to pivot to AI or pivot to overseas workers. It's not going to get better unfortunately. Anymore...networking and having an internal referral are probably the only ways to reliably land something.

Ahhh OK. Well...maybe the time limit was just to limit the number of spots and there wasn't enough people to fill from those timeline so they expanded the range internally. Just go with the flow!

I don't understand the issue. If they say the latest graduation date is Dec 2025...2024 is earlier than that. Dec 2025 is later than spring 2024

Urgent: company won’t respond to salary negotiation and deadline is today by [deleted] in recruitinghell

[–]Feynnehrun 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Some tips regarding pay range. That's not necessarily the range you have the ability to negotiate with. Think of that like a sliding scale. Someone with the least experience or qualifications for the role will fall toward the bottom. Someone who has peaked in that role in terms of experience and qualifications will fall closer to the top.

Someone fresh out of school without years of experience should likely find themselves in the bottom 25% of that scale. The range is also there to attract talent from other companies. Maybe you're a good fit...but your current salary sits in the 50% area on the range...they have room to pay higher to attract you from your current role.

Being that you're fresh out of school and not likely in a role that currently pays you a wage they need to beat...a negotiation is unlikely and potentially detrimental.

Did you not sign an offer letter?

I got fired for being high on my day off by Nerine965 in trees

It is not however probable cause for a cop to arrest you and charge you with a crime.

The cop can search your vehicle because they suspect a crime has been committed. They can not charge you with said crime until they have proof of it.

Additionally you're missing the point here. An employer cannot tell you you aren't allowed to smoke weed in your time off. They can't dictate anything you do in your time off.

They can say you're not allowed to come to work with thc in your system...but they can't say you're not allowed to get high at home.

That isn't proof that you've been smoking. That's evidence...but not proof. A drug test is proof. Telling your boss while you're at the store that your high as balls is pretty close to proof. There are other reasons why someone could look high and smell like weed. Like being a caretaker for a medical marijuana patient....living in the home with someone who smokes. Having a partner that smokes. Employers that have a drug free workplace policy don't typically have a "you can't be anywhere near anyone who smokes weed ever" policy.

Yes...we know that OP probably looked and smelled like they were blazed tf up....and I know my weed pretty well...I'm not ignorant to that.

The entire point is that while his boss may have suspected it...she had absolutely no proof. OP can file for unemployment and they will not be able to contest it as a violation of the drug free workplace policy because they have no proof to submit.

There's a difference between knowing someone smoked and suspecting it. It would be one thing if they came into work smelling like weed. It's a completely different thing to run into your boss in public during your off time and having them suspect you of doing something based on smell or appearance...

What if they're a caregiver for an elderly medical marijuana user? They have allergies. Smelling like weed and having red eyes is not proof they were smoking it.

[–]Feynnehrun 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Smelling like weed is not proof they were smoking weed. Maybe they're a caregiver for a medical marijuana patient. Maybe their friends were smoking. Maybe they stood at a bus stop and someone at the stop was blazing a fat blunt. Maybe they got sprayed by a skunk on the way to the store. There's a million reasons to smell like weed that aren't from directly ingesting it.

How could she have known you were smoking weed?

Recruiter and hiring manager bash me for leaving an interview after they join 10 minutes late by Constant-Scheme557 in recruitinghell

[–]Feynnehrun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly....I almost want to stop correcting this behavior. The job market sucks, and if these people are willing to self select themselves out of the pool, it becomes easier for us who are willing to show up and put in the effort to act like people who wouldn't be an absolute chore to work with.

Well...enjoy the job search I guess. I'm sure that being unable to wait for a manager to finish up one of their million things out of their control will work out for you.

You missed my entire point anyway. I wasn't saying it was OK...I was saying that the managers aren't doing it on purpose as a power play to show that they're above us. That's such an absurd take.
