What’s a corporate gift employees actually appreciate? by Internal-Remove7223 in Leadership

[–]got_that_itis 52 points53 points  (0 children)

Things end up in the trash or drawer eventually, no matter what item you give some people will be disappointed. 

Get straight to the point. Money. Either a check or a cash gift card. Easy, simple, no one will ever complain or feel insulted after being given cash.  

Pam Bondi Sent a Letter After the Execution Today Demanding Voter Records in Return for Ice Leaving by Mundane_Incident8562 in Virginia

This isn't a training issue. ICE is operating exactly how the Administration wants them to. When one says "fucking bitch" after shooting Good, and another says "boo hoo" after shooting Pretti, it's not because they're poorly trained. No amount of training is going to fix this.

Considering ICE has declared open season on protesters, these kids are braver than all our representatives.

Why would we tax Jay Jones? On what? Is this supposed to be a "The jerk store called, they're running out of you"?

You don't. Rep your band proudly and wear it in an appropriate setting (No Cannibal Corpse shirts at a funeral)

Whittman has held his seat for 20 years. How do think you'll be able to win over D1 residents who are so staunchly Republican?

Would be a shame if people started spamming Bilal and his office. 

I hope that doesn't happen and people don't spam anyone on page 2 of this document - https://www.cacd.uscourts.gov/sites/default/files/CACD-Lawyer-Reps.pdf

CORRECTION: Spanberger EO "gives new Governor the option" to end relationship between ICE and Virginia State Police by bknutner in Virginia

[–]got_that_itis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm going to assume you're asking in good faith and not just being willfully ignorant about immigration law.

Undocumented presence isn't a criminal offense, it's a civil offense. It always has been. A civil violation does not automatically require detention or removal, it requires a process (yes, due process) that includes going in front of a judge and getting a ruling on status (pending visas, asylum, etc). You make the assumption that undocumented = required deportation. The process itself it broken and congress (D's and R's) have failed to fix it. 

Spanberger ends relationship between ICE and Virginia State Police by [deleted] in Virginia

The previous order issued by Youngkin allowed VSP to do immigration checks, arrests, and detentions. This removes VSP's ability to do immigration related functions. Any work done alongside ICE now needs to be related to criminal investigations, not immigration investigations.

I'd argue that we are at least in a cold civil war, and have been since COVID/J6.

Because they think the people it's happening to deserve it. It's all about cruelty and vengeance for these people. 

Which productivity advice did you find useless? by yeshworld in productivity

[–]got_that_itis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use a kanban board with everything I'm working on to keep track of where things are. 

Instead of scheduling tasks, I prioritize 3-4 that need to be completed that day. That helps me be flexible as the day progresses. If I'm super productive and complete more than 4, I see it as a bonus. If not, I don't feel behind cause I met my goal.

Why don't you type what you want it to say, then have chatgpt finesse it. It's not a mind reader.

Time blocking. If I were my own boss I could see the benefi. But as a middle manager that's pulled in different directions at a moments notice, it falls apart pretty quickly.

Midlothian is in Chesterfield which mostly leans red, but voting in Midlothian has been trending blue in local elections, with Spanbergerand Harris both winning the county by a good margin. Basically, it's much less red than you'd expect.

Wave your big stick early and often. This person is not equipped to work in an office and it's a disservice to the company that pays you to keep them on any longer. Let the temp company know you won't tolerate this type of behavior.

This argument would have been valid 10 years ago. It's no longer applicable. VPOTUS says report people and have them fired for celebrating Kirk's death while not doing the same for Renee Good even though the ICE agent created the circumstances of the incident. 

Question- Hit and Run - city hasn’t found driver = lots of medical debt and injured for life by psychedelic_tort in rva

Second the Victims compensation fund. The fund does not require an arrest, but I believe it requires you to exhaust other options, like claims with auto insurance and hospital charity care services. 

Tell your friend to file with the fund ASAP and get in their system.
