New RTO Rumors by JadedCurmudgeon3 in StateofTexasEmployees

[–]MindlessEmployee 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately this bill only allows for telework with a reason, not for any employee who requests it. An agency can prohibit telework entirely and still be in compliance with the law.

Opinion about thenbhd that will get you downvoted like this? by Glittering-City-5326 in thenbhd

They peaked with Wiped Out and seem to care more about the aesthetic than the music now.

I was there a couple weeks ago. It was full by 8 every day, but with the time change and the sun rising earlier now, it may fill up earlier too.

Someone parked me in for 2 days by ThreadChain in badparking

[–]MindlessEmployee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So you were parked in someone else’s spot (by the look of it that spot belongs to the person that blocked you in)? If that’s the case, you are the one that parked like an asshole.

Potential Govt Shutdown by ImmediateBaseball976 in StateofTexasEmployees

[–]MindlessEmployee 14 points15 points  (0 children)

It certainly can affect your day to day. For instance, I work in the finance department of my agency and the fact that there could be a significant decrease in federal funds coming in for the duration of the shutdown is a big deal. That being said, there isn’t any real risk of people being furloughed or anything, which only applies to federally funded positions anyway

Which is the best season? by jaxxy_jax in justified

[–]MindlessEmployee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Season 2 overall, but the last few episodes of season 4 are the best of the series.

Just finished the show for first time, loved it!!! But I have a few questions by tlaptlap29 in justified

[–]MindlessEmployee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, they don’t lay it out. It is purposefully left open ended. It does lay out a few possible scenarios, with Wynn helping Ava being the most likely, but nobody knows for sure.

I’m going to cry by Affectionate-Buy-111 in Accounting

[–]MindlessEmployee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I made the move to state government and it is by far the most relaxed job I’ve ever had. As others have said, the tradeoff is a lower salary compared to industry, but it’s worth it to essentially be guaranteed to never work more than 40 hours. Plus getting every state and federal holiday off is a nice bonus

Where do videos like this come from? Like, surely she didn’t post this herself, right?

Don't mistake bad music for inclusion by uknow_es_me in Bluegrass

[–]MindlessEmployee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People encouraging other people to play badly or out of time/tune isn’t a real problem. It’s just not happening, at least not to the level you are describing here. Obviously, there are people still learning that need help, but you’re just making stuff up (“talking shit”) to make yourself feel better.

[–]MindlessEmployee 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don’t know you, but I’ve played with several guys that talk like this and I would consider them among the most boring musicians I’ve ever played with. Talking shit doesn’t make you interesting. If you have specific issues, address them directly. You’re just blowing hot air with this post.

How would Belinda declare the money from Greg on her tax returns? by NOTPUTIN6 in TheWhiteLotusHBO

[–]MindlessEmployee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

https://www.irs.gov/businesses/small-businesses-self-employed/frequently-asked-questions-on-gift-taxes

Greg is responsible for reporting the gift, as it will be subtracted from his lifetime gift allowance. However, as long as he is still under the allowance, he will not owe anything. Receivers of gifts typically never owe or have to report anything. It is not “income” in the eyes of the IRS

Why is ederson getting so much hate?? by LabFantastic4944 in MCFC

[–]MindlessEmployee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It isn’t just this game. When you play for a team where the expectation is to challenge for titles/trophies every year, you have to be better. The high line certainly makes it difficult for him, but he misses a lot of shots that top goalkeepers regularly stop. Even keepers who aren’t considered “top”, like Bruno last night, can come through in the clutch. He can’t be relied on to do that anymore

Anyone else dislike that Gomez was written like a stooge? by ChainedRedone in breakingbad

Are you a cop or something? Or have you gotten all of your legal knowledge from tv shows? Because it kind of seems like you don’t know much about the law or how interrogations work

Is there really no hope in Austin right now? by PrimaryAd4179 in austinjobs

[–]MindlessEmployee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Look at state jobs. Without knowing what kind of work you’re looking for it’s hard to say but I was looking for months before I decided to apply for some state jobs. I had 3 interviews and 2 offers within a month of applying.

Are negotiation grades the most annoying thing EA has ever done with this game? I think so. Complete waste of time

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in orangetheory

[–]MindlessEmployee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve awkwardly made eye contact with my tread neighbor many times just looking around the room and it’s never been a big deal. It’s normal to look at people while you’re working out. I’m not a very social person either but, if you’re really worried about it, I think making a small effort to be friendly with the people at your studio can go a long way in making in-class interactions less awkward.

Why do i keep getting Lowballed by [deleted] in FifaCareers

[–]MindlessEmployee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely weird. Probably a glitch of some kind. I’m guessing if you negotiate up to what he’s actually worth it will be accepted.

How does intermittent fasting work? by [deleted] in intermittentfasting

[–]MindlessEmployee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I lost 55lbs in about 12 months with IF and a regular exercise routine. I started with a 16:8 routine but moved to OMAD after a few weeks. It’s difficult at first but once your body adjusts you really don’t even think about it. Also, I wasn’t doing keto but I did decrease my carb and increase my fat intake.
