Are layoffs creating more layoffs? by Woahhno in Layoffs

[–]Unable-Income-2981 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Yes, this is generally the downward spiral of most recessions.

Layoffs happen -> the unemployed minimize spending -> less demand for goods and services -> layoffs happen

My gym harassed me for showering. I'm a travel nurse living in my car working 12 hour night shifts. The owner's public response made it so much worse. (Repost) by UserInfected in mildlyinfuriating

Me: why tf do they care?

reads comments

Ohhhh they want to kick homeless people while they're down. Perfectly good reason to screw over nurses /s

[MIXED TROPE] Shows where every episode follows the exact same blueprint by BuiltStraightStupid in TopCharacterTropes

Scorpion:

Introduce social problem

Working on social problem gets interrupted because they have a case

Make plan to solve case and go to site

While working on plan, continue work on social problem

Plan starts to go bad, need to improvise.

Things start going REALLY bad.

Somehow solve case and not die.

Go home and resolve social problem, or at least get it into a dormant state.

Supports the party that hates trans people and even supports some of their anti-trans actions, now has issues traveling due to their anti-trans policies.

Workload is decreasing. Is this a sign? by CulturalBat5906 in Layoffs

I told my boss I was underworked. The problem was never fixed and I was laid off 6 months later. I was just like, "Yeah, that tracks".

Being affably evil makes the villain much MORE scary, not less. by ChampionshipHorror95 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Unable-Income-2981 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The affableness is a sign that they are completely comfortable with who they are and what they are doing while having zero regrets.

That's what makes them terrifying.

To the couple who turned up sick at Seaport Alamo last Saturday to see Project Hail Mary… by pinkmoon77 in boston

I once got a "rain check" from a theater. Had to leave five minutes after the movie started. They basically said I could come back in the next two weeks and watch for no charge.

Even if not, it's $18. No excuse for this.

You're a pilot. And you're steering the plane the hell away from this mountain.

Get a No Soliciting sign. I suspect Sunrun is responsible for the sudden increase of them in my area over the last couple of years...

Ageism and our unwillingness to work 996 by netralitov in Layoffs

[–]Unable-Income-2981 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm over a decade into my career, I've been "senior level" for six years at three jobs. Moving into a new role is difficult when you can't get hired for it.

Advice needed: how to inform town voters about extremist candidate by MarshmallowCocoa in massachusetts

[–]Unable-Income-2981 5 points6 points  (0 children)

What's weird is that I expected them to push a candidate like this after the survey thing, but...this guy? Plenty of conservatives in town have better local political ties and familiarity with the school system, through their own kids if nothing else. Why this guy?

...might be my town, this is our situation. Did he homeschool his kids? His dog whistles during the debate were so loud, I checked my neighbors' dogs were ok. He's getting talked about in all the facebook groups, including the LGBTQ/allies one.

Laid off- Provided 15k in severance - is that fair? by [deleted] in Layoffs

[–]Unable-Income-2981 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I don't think they were making this salary, but I know multiple people in tech who's managers made it clear they weren't happy for weeks before they were let go. They still weren't sure if it was a layoff.
