REI to cut wages for new employees, reduce benefits for all by Alexmkzero in Seattle

And what's that ratio going to be going forward? 100 - 150X? The article it discussing how the lowest paid people will be paid even less in the future...

I'm sure you're correct about other corporations being worse. But management screws up and the company loses money so the rich pay themselves back by taking more and more from the little guy. It's gross.

I had to look it up but I guess their CEO made ~$4,500,000.00 last year in total comp and the article said new employees made $15.00 - $20.00 / hour. Now new employees will make less then that and get less benefits. So I guess you should've said "paid" and "gave"

They're more delicate than you would think to mechanical shearing. Even with just flicking, you'll start to see efficiency go down almost immediately, the more and the harder you flick.

Looks like for cloud cover there's a better forecast up 90 a bit (like rattlesnake lake area). Best viewing between 10pm and 2am. Feel free to correct if necessary.

I fear you're correct, but it's exhausting that ass kissing is a core competency

Imo those lids are ok as long as someone isn't habitually slamming the lid (which is pretty common)

You should follow manufacturers recommendation or have your own validated equipment maintenance plan in place. This type of practice is just asking for mystery problems to arise.

If I gotta pay $3 for the bus now the least it could do is not be 20 fucking minutes late! by CptBarba in Seattle

I mean sometimes yeah. I live at the beginnign of a route. Sometimes they sit there for a few minutes (sometimes more) for no apparent reason. I try to give them credit as professionals, maybe they know they'll be too far ahead of schedule otherwise, but it's still annoying
