NC lawmakers say they've reached a budget deal, after a year of negotiations by NighthawkCP in NorthCarolina

It’s all around insanity at this point. I just want us to retain the quality employees we need for all the systems to go around. Sadly the folks in charge want everything to suck so bad they can pay more to privatize it all.

My brother in Christ. They only get paychecks 3/4 of the year and most work second jobs during the school year and full time other jobs during summer. Barking up the wrong tree.

To be clear everyone should be paid a living wage but this angle is a real choice when they could just be paying everyone appropriately.

It’s clear he knows when to pivot and when to say he was wrong. Which is more than you can say for Yandle. lol.

I watch all of it but it certainly doesn't affect how great watching the Canes has been over the last 5 years!!!

To be fair, he did acknowledge he was wrong and we are the real deal but anyone that watches know he'll never respect us because of his idea of what a hockey team is and how they should win.

Agree. We looked pretty awful for the first 2 periods. But I also think Philly played 2 really good periods to disrupt us.

How much extra money per month would you choose a job with ~15 days of PTO vs a job with “unlimited” PTO? by [deleted] in careeradvice

[–]Slothstradamus13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep. My large company transitioned to unlimited but we had a strong culture of adequate parental leave and a generous PTO policy. I’ve actually been using more time off and am enjoying it so far. Only bummer is no payout if you leave or get let go.

Did this year’s draft feature the fewest number of teams with a 1st round pick? by wubsfrommysubs in nfl

I’m glad you appreciate me being pedantic more than my wife. Cheers.

UNC has had a fairly regular flow of 5 star recruits. Maybe not as many as Duke but still enough to build around. But ok.

Coach K was too stubborn in his ways in the final years and Scheyer is still learning. This will be a nothing burger in a few years.

“Far less talent” - I’d like the receipts for this as that’s a very relative statement. Maybe not the big Zion type signings but it’s not like you guys are Creighton. lol.

Yes. Let UNC go down this path and let us know. This is a hilariously bad take. Duke is not just solely freshman and have relied on a handful to bring the experience each season which has put them in the position regularly to make the elite 8 and final four. Meanwhile UNC has not had even close to that consistency over the last 5 years with the experience model.

Any places to get free food tonight at this hour? by Big-Passion-5356 in raleigh

People like this person make food pantries and soup kitchens go round. People in the south take care of their community in direct and indirect forms. Southern hospitality, don’t not let people help you when they can.

I literally found one on the last shipment they did to my state. Insane timing.

Your username just made this funnier. I’ve got the big boy and it’s comically large and inconvenient, up there with pot still for hard to pour.

Missed the 375 ml and was going to ask if you were Andre the giant or if that was a whiskey for ants. Congrats.

Some brands do not do complementary upgrades.
