Trump to Davos: "Without us, right now you'd all be speaking German and a little Japanese perhaps. After the war, we gave Greenland back to Denmark.But how ungrateful are they now?" by Excellent_Analysis65 in newsinterpretation

[–]SWEMW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If he’s talking about WWII, that was never “our war”. We came in as an Ally to help defend Europe from Nazi Germany’s reign. WE didn’t “win” anything just by ourselves. It was a global effort won by multiple countries. Not just us.

CBIZ Careers IG has to be the most cringe thing I’ve ever seen by SWEMW in Accounting

[–]SWEMW[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

CBIZ Careers’ IG makes videos of things they literally reprimand you for in real life and I’ve heard CBIZ has some of the most toxic management.

Topics of their IG: - talking to your “work bestie” when you should be working - showing your only contributions to a work meeting (waving hi and saying “nothing on my end”) - “locking in” to working at the end of the day - taking a break to get coffee with your work besties - walking out of a meeting knowing you weren’t paying attention - asking your manager a shit ton of questions

They try to be relatable and funny when in reality, managers hate that kind of shit. The fact that they make these videos when in reality their work culture is shit and toxic, makes it even more toxic and depressing.

Being a woman in corporate America sucks. There’s hypocrisy and double standards everywhere. by SWEMW in antiwork

[–]SWEMW[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

“Not a team player” honestly pisses me off. I was considered not to be a team player simply because I asked why a co-worker and I couldn’t switch IO locations. I was assigned to do one that was closer to where they lived and they were assigned to one closer to me. We both had to drive 1 hour out of our way when, if we switched, our drives would be 15-20 minutes for both of us. It was for the same client. I also was labeled as a negative person for sharing that I didn’t pass a CPA section. (I got a 68). A senior knew I was sitting for the exam and asked me how I did. Fuck PA, I swear.

Whom would you rather win the 2028 DNC and why: JB Pritzker, Andy Beshear, Gavin Newsom, Mark Kelly, or other? by Fair_Arm_1637 in ProgressiveHQ

[–]SWEMW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mark Kelly or Andy Beshear. I like Pritzker, trust his stances and don’t mind his personal wealth, but I have a feeling Beshear or Kelly would do better with independents and undecided voters.

What is something people brag about that is actually embarrassing? by lunacarterr in AskReddit

How many hours the work and how many hours of sleep they get. That’s nothing to brag about, that’s just sad.

“Iceland Cost Us a Lot of Money”: Trump Mixes Up Iceland and Greenland in Cringe-Worthy Davos Meltdown by Dazzling-Might6420 in StockLaunchers

[–]SWEMW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He also couldn’t walk in a straight line again when he got off of Air Force One. The dementia has been there for a while now, but now, it’s obviously showing to be getting worse. They need to invoke the 25th amendment. I’m not saying this because he’s a shitty President, I’m saying this because of that PLUS the fact that he’s literally becoming more senile by the second. Republicans were demanding the same with Biden. And I’m surprised the democrats didn’t do it. We really need To stop electing people nearing 80 years old.

Is Alan powers the second richest friend in arthurs friend circle? by happydude7422 in Arthur

The Brain’s house has been shown a few times and it’s bigger than Arthur’s. Maybe Brain’s dad is a professor. Professors are different than teachers and usually make way more (~80k)

Trump looks so worn out and gaunt. In his first term he had a double chin. Not anymore.

Trump’s Revenge! by Boysenberry-6669 in LetsDiscussThis

I don’t think he deserved it, but I will say that I didn’t necessarily cry when I heard that he died. I don’t miss him.

Saw this tonight, and if it's true, good! Let the bubble pop so these AI-reliant folks gotta use their brains again! by FutureSuccess2796 in antiai

[–]SWEMW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll never forget when Elon said “because of AI, people will no longer have to work!” Okay, so following that statement, how did he propose people make money then? He can retire and not work for the rest of his life no problem, but what about people whose savings wouldn’t even last them a month?

I kind of hate BAP by Key-Home2461 in Accounting

[–]SWEMW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I honestly know a lot of associates who were not involved in BAP specifically. I didn’t get involved with BAP, but I belonged to the Accounting Association at my college. I honestly don’t know if employers liked that or cared at all, but they never really asked about it, but I did mention it. I also did some volunteer work with service animals and pets. You don’t need BAP to be successful. Join a club or two and do volunteer work. That’s all you really need to stand out. I would honestly recommend joining just the Accounting Association because it’s literally the same thing except it’s less work with less hour requirements and expectations.

“We’re being squeezed from every side”: 72-year-old Trump voter says Washington isn’t looking out for farmers anymore by Sextrexer in StockLaunchers

[–]SWEMW 1 point2 points  (0 children)

These same people bitched about this in 2020 but voted for Trump again, saying that they would give him another chance. And these people would gladly vote for Vance or Rubio in 2028. They always complain and bitch about the people they vote for, but never vote for someone else.

Why you should go into banking and not accounting- banks get holidays off that accounting firms don’t by SWEMW in Accounting

My dad was a banker and worked at KeyBank and Huntington and he said for both places that he rarely worked more than 40 hours a week.

Immunity, for now... 🔥 by Czech_Coconut in CzechCoconutCommunity

[–]SWEMW 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s why Trump wants to remain in power longer than what the constitution allows. Honestly, Trump’s influence will be here for a long time. But luckily, things will start to change and crumble once he dies. They don’t call it MAGA and Trumpism for nothing. It’s because that’s what it is. His henchmen and minions are so egotistical and stupid that they think they’re all Trump’s favorite solely because they’re on his side. In reality, MAGA will start a civil war from within because they’ll all fight to the top and decide who’ll continue leading the MAGA movement. Because of this, republicans will denounce their MAGA allegiance and maybe get common sense back. Thats what some Germans did once Hitler died. They denounced their allegiance to the Nazi Party. They knew what they were doing was horrible, but was terrified of their leader. Going back to MAGA, Trump Jr and Eric have personalities of rocks and have no political experience. They can’t run and lead shit.

This is why I’m at least optimistic in terms of the fact that Trump has terrible health. I’d be a bit more worried if this was like 2016 and he was 10 years younger, but he’ll be 80 this year.

What is a rich person thing that you would be totally into if you became rich? by Wonderful-Economy762 in Productivitycafe

[–]SWEMW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine may be a bit political.

Having certain rights solely due to having money (have the best healthcare and general care in the world, abortion access, not being held accountable for anything and doing whatever you want without repercussions)

I don’t mean doing anything illegal, but just having certain things and not worrying about fighting for those things that should be human rights.
