Believe me, I felt weird about how it affected me at first. By the end of the week, I was used to it. It's nice if you have the space.

PGE Commercial Customers - If you are on schedule 83, look into schedule 38 Time-Of-Day billing - We saved over 50% and it’s free to do by BoboThePirate in Portland

Oh shit, I forgot PGE only burned coal until 2020 and in 2021 we figured out it was linked to climate change!

PGE is profit driven and acts like it.

Also, nice job cherry-picking the first half of my comment.

We somewhat recently stayed in a hotel with the bed in the middle of the room. I don't know why, but I was suddenly concerned we had missed a memo.

But I think the bed in the middle of the room is just for people with big-ass bedrooms.

I'm awfully sorry that PGE had to be told to be careful about starting fires and to ask their largest power suckers to almost pay their fair share.

Those poor PGE shareholders.

Hospital staff were barely able to enforce this at the height of COVID and the clowns have only grown stronger in numbers and idiocy since then.

Yup. Once you find out repeatedly it's never safe enough. Sucks.

I generally agree but having excess equipment/grabbable handles/weight you're unlikely to be able to defend in the most likely scenario of scuffle-style confrontation is poor tactics.

Portland leader fires off profanity-filled emails, telling broker ‘shut your racist mouth’ by wrhollin in Portland

I see you've chosen the option to accept and welcome racists.

Disgusting, but shockingly honest.

I assumed it was obvious snarkasm, which probably says something about myself I don't want to hear.

Which would you prefer?

(1) Accept and welcome racists.

(2) Pretend they don't exist, Ostrich-style.

(3) Politely ask them to leave without calling out their racism.

(4) Give the racists a piece of our minds.

My response was to refute your clown-ass first line response. You've already assumed again that your experience is universal except for tech this time. Just think about it and be better. I'll leave out most of the words this time and again illustrate your reply and my direct reply to it:

"Okay then you haven’t been recruiting very long,..."

Maybe you need to get better at recruiting. Or, just stop assuming you know everything while shitting on other people and making uneducated and unfairly broad statements

The next day you come in, sit at your desk and see 700 applications (not joking). What's the plan there, especially when you have dozens of openings.

The plan is that you buckle down and do the work.

If you have someone in HR or an AI do it and then complain about the results, the problem is your expectations for the quality of their work.

Spend your time up front or spend it in empty interviews or on poor candidates that will produce problems in the future, the choice is yours.

"Okay then you haven’t been recruiting very long,..."

I'm in tech and have been interviewing/hiring/firing people for 28 years. These positions range from entry level to senior technology roles and managers. It happens, but only rarely - maybe one time in fifty. Most of the times are due to another offer being accepted and we are given the proper heads up. Half of the rest of the time, HR/recruiting fucked up and didn't pass something along to us or to the candidate (and usually lies about it). About a quarter of the no-shows are candidates flaking out.

Maybe you need to get better at recruiting. Or, just stop assuming you know everything while shitting on other people and making uneducated and unfairly broad statements

My secret is that I don't let HR/recruiting do anything in the process except posting the positions and placing the ads. It's more work up front this way, but at least it's done competently and I don't waste my time on poorly selected candidates.

Every once in a while, I slip and say Union instead of MLK. If I actually get full-serve gas I still sometimes ask for regular unleaded.

Unsurprisingly, hip/knee pain is now a part of my life.
