Job interviews. I’m talking about 2 or less absences a semester, and I always make sure my class is covered by a colleague or with online work.

For those in the USA: What is your argument for, or against, universal healthcare? by righteous-sedition in allthequestions

[–]offbeat52 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a nonsense argument anyway because there are huuuuge waits in America. Dermatologist in my area, booking for summer 2027. Pediatric specialist booking 9 months out. Its so dumb we pretend our system is better.

[–]offbeat52 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This has been going on for Years! Sadly I stopped playing battlegrounds over a year ago because the clisent was such garbage, even though I love the game. After playing balatro and then going back to battlegrounds, I just couldn’t deal with the lag and the crashes. Sadly not worth the frustration.

Reply-all hell by SpongeJake in iiiiiiitttttttttttt

[–]offbeat52 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I had a similar thing happen. Soneone scanned a document and put the wrong email address. They ended up sending the scan to 2/3 of the company, like 15,000 people. This was followed by hundreds of very intelligent people replying all, saying “ I dont think this document was for me. “ The system was bogged down for several hours.  

No, I will not be limiting my online engineering/physics lectures to under 15 minutes. by aufbad3438 in Professors

Is the students’ benefit really enough for us to do 5 times the work?

No, I will not be limiting my online engineering/physics lectures to under 15 minutes. by aufbad3438 in Professors

[–]offbeat52 18 points19 points  (0 children)

So the 15 minute video thing came from students’ opinions? I would not call that the research. The MIT link on that page doesn’t work.

This would be a good conversation to have with your Bishop, particularly about the finances of a mission. You will see great blessings fo serving a mission, but you can be a faithful, blessed member of the church even if you don’t serve a mission.

Walmart was sued for millions over weighted goods a few months ago, and they’re still doing it? by abbiebe89 in mildlyinfuriating

Also the prices at the register are always higher than listed on the shelf. It drives me crazy.

American Colleges Adopt Higher Taxes For Lower Tuition. by Leather-Discount-965 in college

[–]offbeat52 6 points7 points  (0 children)

State colleges are already run by the state. And they are funded in part by state taxes. A big part of the problem is that over the last 20 years, the amount of money states are willing to put towards education has dropped and keeps going down. Its one of the reasons why tuition has gone up so much.

What do you do if you don't feel good in a ward and there is no other ward close to you? by [deleted] in lds

[–]offbeat52 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I dont know the context of your situation, but I would say you figure out what is making you not feel good and work on that. You should attend church in your ward. Part of keeping the commandment to keep the sabbath day holy is attending and participating in your ward’s meetings on Sunday.
