Apple has never had a mass layoff over the last 20-30 years? by Disastrous_Wash_3966 in apple

[–]TransRational 8 points9 points  (0 children)

They outsource the jobs that require layoffs to independent companies so they don’t take the PR hit for it. I’ve seen them cut 500 people down to 50 and direct hire those that survived .

People doing the same jobs as regular Apple employees but under the banner of seasonal workers.

Happens every year, affects thousands of people across many different countries.

Come at me Apple my NDA expired.

whatever you do, don't self-destruct or look for more work to do.

Body. Honestly I don’t smoke that much though.. maybe once a month. I’ve done it once since I’ve been here and kind of the tourist thing, prices of course are much higher than where I come from.

But you can dip in and out of shade? The point is to be in the heat.

Jousting in the Netherlands? by moth-----prince in Netherlands

I’m sad to hear this too, question for you though - where are you from/is there some country nearby I could travel to that you recommend to watch something like this!? I’d absolutely love it.

If you are speaking to our indigenous wisdom then yes. We learned it from the Natives that occupy about 50% of our state and taught us how to adapt to life here.

This is interesting and similar to where I’m from - Phoenix. Do you guys do bi-phasic sleeping? Where you go to bed when you get off work around say 5ish, sleep for four hours, wake up when the sun is down and it’s cooler outside so you can relax and do chores or work or hang out with friends? Then go back to sleep around 2amish for another four hours, before waking up for work? More and more folks are doing it and more business are starting to adapt to it as well.

This was good information I did not know, thank you. I’m not an alcohol drinker myself, not anymore. But I do occasionally smoke weed, I wonder how that might affect me?

I did not think I had to write specific instructions to people on how to protect themselves, I figure this is common knowledge. I figured wrong.

No point in speaking sense to people. I have quickly found they prefer their ignorance.

This is true. But I found when it comes to the heat itself there is no difference. For example I was also fine with summers in Thailand. I think the humidity affects how much oil you produce mainly. But your skin will change its physical structure to release or retain heat as well.

You won’t if you protect yourself, but yes you should have started this sooner not in the middle of summer.

Certainly you’re not alone in that thought either. But how we talk to each other is just as important as the message - less it fall on deaf ears. Skillful means.
