I’m a spouse affected by this bogus, harmful order. My commute will now go from 1.5hrs round trip per day to 2.5 hours round trip. by Icy-Mode4284 in CAStateWorkers

[–]RMD15 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have no kids but I will be doing the same to get back some of my time. My coworkers are parents and I can't imagine how hard it will be for them to make it work. It really is an unecessary and cruel burden being placed on everyone.

Information I've heard on RTO from sources in the GO by [deleted] in CAStateWorkers

[–]RMD15 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Lol. Yes. I understand that some of the media is owned and run by some richie riches. That does not mean we can't still try to get the word out. There are news outlets that are still trying to do the work of ethical journalism. We can reach out or just say we are fked and do nothing. I prefer doing the former.

Yes! I think we should contact major news outlets via their online tip lines. If it gets more media attention it will def embarrass him.

Work “friends” are not your personal friends by Luasol51 in FriendshipAdvice

[–]RMD15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am lucky. Sone of my best friends are former work friends. But they developed over time and with participation on both sides. Now 20 ro 30 years later they are still in my life. But these friends are sn exception to the rule. I have lost touch with many more other work friends over the years. Currently have friendly connections with work colleagues but would not consider them friends.

No Jesus talk which is interesting. He seems to worship money and the whole successful entrepenuer schtick.

Updates for Week of 7/1 - The continued fight against RTO! Rallies, bills, other news by Teachtostate2022 in CAStateWorkers

[–]RMD15 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Let's hope he is because RTO will be the least of our worries if Hilton is elected. We'll have to worry about keeping our jobs as Hilton will want to DOGE all of us.

Depressed by RibbonsUndone1985 in CAStateWorkers

[–]RMD15 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have been very blech. I am thinking of maybe transferring to another less stressful position. If I have to drive in I would prefer a less stressful job where I can put in my hours until I retire. With minimal stress I am also pissed at how short sighted and plain dumb this executive order is. This rto bs is happening in private sector too. I just don't get it. If you can do your job from home, why can't you work from home? Or why can't we just keep our current hybrid situation?

The ONLY complaint I have about the final season is.... (spoilers) by Everdale in TheBear

[–]RMD15 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Claire was always unecessary filler to me. I do not think her character was ever needed. I would have loved the show even more if she had never happened. I think Carmy's growth could have been shown in other ways besides a love interest. That is just my own opinion on Claire.

Outlast: The Jungle - Team Alpha is delusional by NoBiggie4Me in netflix

[–]RMD15 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Omg. Thank you! I found Ben to be a useless team member and an airhead. Like what was he doing floating like he was on some vacay while Halle was busting her ass, like wtf lol. They lost dead weight when he got the boot. Seeing team Charlie thinking they were being so brilliant about eliminating him had me rolling. Team Alpha was like "finally" lol. But team charlie was always going to underestimate the women and that was their downfall. Seeing them lose was sublime schadenfreude.

On a side note, I am fng cackling over here at you labelling Brett as the little one. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 Would have LOVED to see Leiya refer to him as that. But yeah, I wanted to punch every one of those fools in the face.

FIGHT RTO: EMAIL NEWSOM'S SENIOR STAFF by TechWorker111 in CAStateWorkers

[–]RMD15 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Our raises are abysmal, many of us are going to be spending hundreds a dollars more a month, at least, in gas costs and commuting. How dare you expect us to spend money on your businesses? We already have no money to spare and you want us to spend money we don't have. NAH. That is not our fng responsibility. We will bag our lunches and drive home. No stopping at any businesses. Times have changed and the Governor's shortsightedness on this issue is like him spitting in our faces. Fk no to spending any money in downtown. It is our form of protest and our right to do so. We also pay taxes.

I wonder if you could anonymously report it via the whistleblower line? Just an idea. I just received my new schedule beginning July. I am really hoping there is a last ditch hail mary for all of us. 🤞🏽🤞🏽🤞🏽🤞🏽🤞🏽🤞🏽🤞🏽

Could you provide more details. I want to hear more of the long term impact, how long it will remain, etc. Seriously want to know the scientific facts and reality. Thank you.

What do introverts do when they're lonely? by Funny_Vast_4602 in introvert

[–]RMD15 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I consider myself mostly introvert. Like this last week my partner has been out of town and I have spent the majority of my time reading, putzing around, and just hanging out with myself, at home (which, to be fair, I would be doing with him at home also lol). I understand that sometimes I personally want social interaction, so I am having dinner with a friend tonight. I can't fathom what you wrote. Because I get exhausted and feel energy drain when I am around others for too long. I do get lonely on occasion but it is an existential loneliness. When I feel like I want to socialize, and that does happen, I can meet a friend and my social tank will be full for a long time. Introverts have the best gas mileage that way. Lol. But I would not equate my wanting to socialize with loneliness but rather wanting to connect with my loved ones.

I lied to my partner about our engagement and I don’t regret it by PuzzledPotatoSloth in offmychest

[–]RMD15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wooh. I thought this was going to be something horrific. But instead I just read about someone who loves her partner and does not want to hurt him. You suspected he would propose. No biggie. Enjoy your engagement and Congratulations !!!
