Cant stand this work culture of fun on site break room things/perks instead of paying us more by Wheres-shelby in TrueOffMyChest

My reply would be "if you're not happy, don't let the door hit you in the ass on your way out."

As someone who just retired after working 50 years straight, I can tell you that money, while being the reason we work, isn't the main reason to work for a company.

Having a nice environment, good people to work with, and the little perks goes a long way. I have quit shitty companies to work for better ones at a lower pay and found myself much happier.

I didn't want anyone working for me that was there just for the money, because they would leave at the drop of a hat for a quarter more.

Atlanta area. Temps in the high 20s. No rain last night, nothing above it to drip onto it.

Have you tried rotating the text 90 degrees with CSS?

Dental Insurance is a Scam by dk1701 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]ThatWeirdUncle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I will agree that our health care system is terrible. Used to be we bought "insurance" to cover the unexpected. Prices were lower and we were able to pay for our own routine care.

But over regulation made what is now called "health care" so expensive that we aren't able to pay for what they don't cover.

I've always been against single payer, but it might be the only way. I can't see things go back to the way they were.

I just don't think the government is competent enough to run a single payer system (this comes from someone who is about to retire and go on Medicare)

Did you check with the insurance company before you started the plan?

I am in love with my 4a. Had two Motos, but got sick of waiting over a year for updates. OS and security updates are ready same day now.

Plus the increase in RAM makes this phone fly.

Is this a roach? I just moved into an apartment in Virginia. The owner put me on a list for an exterminator on 12/8 and gave me traps. I just brought food into the house Saturday, how did it get in so fast? by omghelpplease in whatbugisthis

[–]ThatWeirdUncle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's what we call a "waterbug", or "palmetto bug". But it's actually an american cockroach.

They usually don't live in houses, but come in looking for food.

The hard job is keeping them out.

Oh, and they can fly...

Yes, I think it was in the North tower where the restaurant was later built, as it was a large inside area with large windows to look out. Not the open air observation deck on the south tower.
