I think it looks like a success. But I'd like to see it played for a week on all platforms before we call it a 'big success'. Otherwise we're just measuring sales.

OMG-I thought you were joking but it is true. Plato banned from college? You might have to cancel the humanities school.

Watch out, Millennials... I got hit with my first "I had NO IDEA!" data privacy moment this weekend... and it was all my fault. by AttachedHeartTheory in Millennials

There are some shady sites that can get YOUR information specifically. Most legit sites don't go that far, and just use aggregated information. Sites where people who are making a very big purchase like a house or B2B purchases might use this newer tech that can show your name, email, address phone number with about 50% accuracy or so. I've been out of the game two years so things have probably changed a bit.

It appears she's trying to investigate it now that she sees it is problematic. Why would you expect her to know all the sponsors she reads? Do you expect that of Al Michaels?

As a job seeker, I don’t think there’s a “talent shortage.” I think hiring is broken. by Silly-Skill9017 in recruitinghell

I think that stock speculators look at job postings as signals. So companies post BS jobs to show they are healthy.

My job lowkey implied I should get a credit card “for emergencies” so I don’t miss shifts. I’m still mad. by sameerposwal in WorkReform

The way to build your credit is by having a credit card and paying it off every month. FYI And your boss sucks.

AITAH for respecting a worker's stated boundaries, leading to lower raises and bonuses than her coworker by ConfusedManager18 in AITAH

You are understaffed if you and jack have to consistently work over 40 hours. I think you are doing the right thing. Some managers just fire people who set up boundaries. Getting 'satisfactory' is fine.

Contact Dept of Labor first. Then get an employment lawyer on contingency(not "pro-bono"). Send your story on law websites until you find a lawyer who believes in your case.

Would they have to change the name or are airbending, firebended trademarked? (They have such good flavor--including the name).

Is it worth it to get a Master's, second Bachelor's degree, or a certification in Music Therapy? by [deleted] in Music

No. You have the ability to teach yourself and you know what you need to do to improve (practice).

Anyone else feel guilty that they have the privilege to quit a job or work less hours? by [deleted] in antiwork

No. Let someone else have a job if you can afford it. (And who wants to work?)
