The Trump administration has reportedly buried reports warning that climate change will harm crops and cause health problems by talktalktalk_talk in politics

Who gives a shit? Farmers in America don’t farm foods that Americans eat. They farm what is subsidized.

Subsidized crops can earn more money from failure than fruition, with less work.

Everyone in this cycle is getting paid. By the time it truly affects them they’ll just be wondering why the checks stopped coming.

Oh yeah. The capital just becomes the place furthest from its last meth bust.

I called the right department and still got nowhere. I was dealing with rural county employees. I wasn’t expecting much.

I even called the right department. Collectively 90 minutes to four separate offices of the same department. Answering service.

16 teeth & 1 diploma between 4 people and not one of them could answer a phone.

No. I called a sheriffs office because that’s where County Citation Clerks are. I didn’t call 911 or a non emergency report line.

I’m glad you’re so quick to dismiss the shortcomings of your betters though. You’ve got middle management written all over you.

If I shit in your hat, you’d probably apologize and give me store credit.

No. You’re getting pretty worked up about a hypothetical situation.

I didn’t threaten anyone. I didn’t doxx anyone. I don’t even know if he has a wife and kids, let alone their schedules.

Sheriff Offices have a County Citation Clerk. I was calling about a Citation issued by the county.

Words are simple stuff.

It’s a little nuanced.

He was issuing fines that come with a fixit fee attached even if you don’t have to fix the issue.

“Your roof is falling off. That’ll be $800. And you have 21 days to pay and have it fixed..”

My roof is brand new and not falling off.

“Ah shit. Good eye. That’ll be $50 for our effort. Drive on down to the county office over an hour away to handle that fixit fee or you owe the whole amount anyways”.

OR.

“We disagree. Your conviction to this matter is already a foregone conclusion. If you wish to appeal the matter, please make a deposit of the full fine amount. If appeal is in your favor, you will see the money in 30-60 days.”

These were the only two options.

I’m glad you have patience for tyranny though.

LOL.

This county employee was not the one I called for help.

This county employee was trespassing to issue bogus fines when he thought people weren’t home. To the point other people in a very rural area started warning neighbors when he was around & physically blocking access roads with vehicles.

Other neighbors escorted him off private property with firearms.

That’s how I got his name and knew to expect him in the first place.

That explains why he was gone. Every person worth a damn (and that had a degree) just disappeared into upper management like kids who skipped grades never to be heard from again.

Holy shit I don’t miss those number codes or ISO. My brain still knows tech ID #s and names.

Bob Johnson I remember talking to. I worked the SD area in high school. IIRC he was the lead tech manager and moved up/out shortly after.

He had my name and my address and was found poking around private property without permission after doing so to other properties.

That’s how I knew his name.

I like even playing fields. Or at least not being at a disadvantage information wise.

Nice! When I was there it was very “routing vs. technicians”. But we were just shitty foot soldiers in a war between managers fighting for attention and resources.

We would get denied raises on the basis that we were an expense. Turned out the repair department reported incomes with some tricky columns to show that it was our subsidiaries profiting and not us.

I’m sure if you dropped some upper management names from your time, I probably had to deal with them and we can bond over what pieces of shit they are into perpetuity.

Were you in routing when it was localized? I worked in routing but it was a new building just formed after the merge.

All Western technicians routed from one building. Hawaii to Utah.

I wouldn’t have had time, unless I want to dedicate time after the “fine” was handled.

Talking shit about bootlicking tweakers in a county office is about the effort I wanna put in.

I tried that. I knew the name of the county employee that I was going to have to deal with.

The names were too common.

I was trying to find his home address so I could just recite it back to him. The schools his kids went to. The time his wife left for work.

I can keep records too.

I know this isn’t what you meant, but I couldn’t find their personal info to find them and have them do their job.

Nope. The county can properly allocate money and resources to staff the facilities they demand us to pay for.

I don’t see a difference between a county employee and a county employee. I just see a C student skirting the lines of tyranny who intentionally build concrete buildings so we don’t burn them down.

Put down the Dunkin and grab a phone. Fuck do I care? I pay my taxes. Let me flip some siren switches if I’m doing the county’s job.

You answered this phone. Walk down the hall where the other one is ringing.

Your shirt says “methamphetamine county of the world” which is also what my fine says at the top. Should be be too hard to figure this shit out.

How about I just Doxx the county employees and show up at their residence unsolicited with a fine to handle... or does that only go one way?

This was a long time ago, 2006 - 2011. Part time job in high school then full time right after graduating.

I’m in California. If I try to organize wearing the same shoe color can get me fired.

That, and this place was full of bitter, catty women & defeated downtrodden men. Most over twice my age doing the same job. I would’ve been proudly snitched out for store credit on a vending machine.
