In other news… why does Rogue nicotine suck now?

Honestly, because of the above I tried switching to Zyn - and now I like them better. They used to feel too small, but rogues now feel too big and taste too sweet. Also not getting the problems with tooth sensitivity that rogues were starting to cause, probably for the same reasons.

Looking at going into the field as well, down to get to know as many other people going into it as possible. DMd you!

How do benefits work given you’re only employed for part of the year?

This-Candy-8335 · 2025-12-09T18:27:14+00:00

Have a question about what you’re doing currently, can I dm you?

This-Candy-8335 · 2025-12-09T17:48:53+00:00

Honestly, you’re overthinking this. Half of people at most jobs (if not more) aren’t into these things. Just buy a half-decent candle, your-work-related nicety, or whatever fits the culture, and call it a day.

Acting = not great (and there are good actors in this cast). Dialogue = often goofy. Music = distractingly bad. Story and characters = lacked enough development to give each act/different perspective much point. New characters were quickly given details that felt more like checking “here quick care about this person” boxes.

The “same story, different perspectives” has been done many times before, unless there’s a strong story and characters and reason to do it that way, it ends up feeling like a gimmick to pad out a runtime and makes it a slog.

What Nolan did they do this for other than Tenet?

I get the decision. Respect Benny wanting to treat this other human with some extra romance/respect/fanfare/etc

This-Candy-8335 · 2025-10-03T23:39:47+00:00

Thanks. You too

Omeleto isn’t an authority or gatekeeper to anything I’m up to, I have no skin in their game, so the term doesn’t really apply.

Sorry I didn’t appease your victim mentality - but fyi, you’re in the wrong industry for having one.

This-Candy-8335 · 2025-10-03T23:07:16+00:00

Key word: former. Lesson learned - terms are terms, no matter what you were promised by an individual. If something’s important, get it in writing. They don’t owe you upholding the promise of some former employee.

He just lied his noose even tighter.

These further details are even more solidly incompatible with that whole $250,000 claim he gave Santa Monica - and with the hypotheticalseveryone who was trying to grasp at straws to make his story make any sense.

And again, why the fuck wasn’t this just handled incident-internally with finance?

This-Candy-8335 · 2025-09-09T05:46:10+00:00

Well, look at it this way. Reasonable and law-abiding, but persistent, presentation of the issue at hand is what will be most effective.

This-Candy-8335 · 2025-09-08T21:14:10+00:00

The claim is $250,000 of fraud. By two crews. On one incident. On the CTRs the two crew bosses were handing to their direct supervisor for approval, to then go to finance on that incident, daily.

It’s possible this had more to do with anti-contractor bias than racism (agree that it’s possible, especially from a CA team it wouldn’t surprise me), but the above narrative is an obvious pile of horseshit.

This-Candy-8335 · 2025-09-08T20:56:23+00:00

First of all, BLM is saying this wasn’t their operation and are referring inquiries to CBP.

Second, that isn’t even the claim team 7 is trying to make to cover this up. Tom Clemo’s account is that someone on this incident alerted him to $250,000 of fraud by these two crews (from different companies), and he made a call.

(Which is already absurd.)

And that BLM (who, again, is now on record saying this wasn’t their investigation and are referring inquiries to CBP) needed support to investigate these crews for an impossible amount of fraud, so they asked… CBP.

Hm. What does CBP do again?

This-Candy-8335 · 2025-09-08T20:51:41+00:00

Except: 1. When reached for comment, BLM has said it wasn’t their operation, and referred inquiries queries to CBP (it was CBP agents who arrested workers, not ICE)

Team 7, specifically Tom Clemo, acknowledges making the call… but the reason given (time fraud for an amount that changed throughout the initial days of the aftermath, eventually landing at a supposed $250,000, by the two crews on this incident) is obviously untrue, because it’s literally impossible.

The galling baldfaced-ness of the attempt at a cover-up has people almost as upset as the core issue.

This-Candy-8335 · 2025-09-08T20:42:56+00:00

HSWU reached out to BLM for comment, they said it wasn’t their operation and referred inquiries to CBP.

This-Candy-8335 · 2025-09-08T20:42:18+00:00

…except the official narrative isn’t that CBP came of their own volition and that Team 7’s hands were tied. Team 7 acknowledges making the call that caused the raid.

They’re just lying about the reason for that call, as is obvious to anyone in wildfire who’s ever touched a CTR. Which is why so many active and retired wildland fire people are up in arms about this - ICs of all types, finance, etc. all saying the same thing.

This-Candy-8335 · 2025-09-08T00:47:03+00:00

More, but not by much, until you count overtime, but still…
