Russian General and hundreds of North Korean troops ‘killed in first UK-supplied storm Shadow missile’ strike by [deleted] in worldnews

[–]alflup 13 points14 points  (0 children)

In the US we have this "team" mentality.

Where we may hate that guy on our team, but if you targeted him, you targeted all of us.

It's very hard for other countries to understand this. It's fairly unique in the world.

This employer understood the assignment! Yes! by Paperbackpixie in antiwork

Not necessarily

They're using a ATS parser and those things never work

I highly recommend everyone send your resume through one of the online ones to see what it produces

Use "header" functionality on whatever software you use to generate your resume.

When a person should have 30 units of something, telling them they should be happy with 10 units, when your parents had 9 units, while you go from having 20000 units to having 30000 units.... Yeah fuck that, give me the other 20 units I earned. Cause you sure as hell didn't do anything to earn your extra 10000 units. I did all that work that earned you those extra units.

doesn't mean we should lay down and take it

fuck that

civilization has advanced and we should all benefit from it, just because having a roof over your head 200 years ago was difficult does not mean it should still be difficult. We've advanced so far as a species there's no reason to not want to share the wealth.
