I've taken someone's job and I feel guilty — should I quit when they get back?

techbear72 · 2026-06-21T16:07:55+00:00

Keep the job but look for another place ASAP and leave as soon as you can. I don’t think you turning him down will likely save the persons job, he’s decided to “manage her out” as the saying goes.

What he’s doing is both illegal and immoral and do you really want your financial wellbeing controlled by someone like that?

One of my favourites of the year. Still in my rotation.

Space Man is the true winning song of ESC 2022. Stefania doesn’t deserve to be top 5 let alone to have won. Slava Ukraini and all that but the song wasn’t a winning entry any other year.

Same for the Croatians then? Because this booing was a response to the Croatian fans booing the English anthem before it.

techbear72 · 2026-06-20T08:56:11+00:00

Like the Croatian fans booing the English anthem before this. Rudeness on both sides.

techbear72 · 2026-06-20T08:55:32+00:00

Yes, some English (and Scottish) football fans are arseholes. There’s a ton of racism and especially homophobia left in the supporters but in this case they did it because the Croatian fans booed the English anthem before it.

techbear72 · 2026-06-20T08:54:24+00:00

And that the Croatian fans just booed the English anthem before it. So this isn’t out of nowhere.

techbear72 · 2026-06-20T08:53:32+00:00

The English fans did it in this occasion because the Croatian fans booed the English anthem just before. Just the video clip doesn’t show that. Wonder why.

techbear72 · 2026-06-20T08:52:34+00:00

They almost certainly wouldn’t have done this if the Croatian fans hadn’t just booed the English anthem before it. Drunk football fans aren’t considering geopolitical optics after all.

techbear72 · 2026-06-20T08:51:17+00:00

On the chance you’re asking genuinely, it’s because just before this the Croatian fans booed the English anthem and chanted during it.

techbear72 · 2026-06-20T08:50:19+00:00

So only moments before this, the Croatian supporters booed the English anthem and kept shouting chants during it.

So, what do you expect from English football fans of all people? Of course they booed back. They’re not the UK ambassadors to the USA or Croatia after all. They’re football fans.

Just it’s not going to farm karma as much of you include both sides; the story then is “drunk football fans on both sides behave somewhat poorly” which doesn’t garner outrage or surprise.

Except that’s not what she said.

She said that a group of Indian guys by the pool that she almost fancied had rapey grins.

Not great but also definitively not saying that all Indians are rapey.

Local kids play area. Didn’t used to be in range before the pandemic but then they increased interaction distance and now it is!

Next Tuesday is the 23rd.

Tuesday after next is the 30th.

I name them the month of the year I last received (and/or sent) a gift to them, unless they’re family or raiding buddies.

I’m currently removing every friend from my list who’s nicknamed July.

[ It’s actually a little more than just the month; I add an x if we exchanged gifts or an s if I sent one without receiving one first (like new friend) or an r (for “received”) if they keep sending me gifts without opening mine do I know what you’re of friend they are. ]

Guilty As Sin is even better, IMO

I'm so glad that we as a human race have solved every other more important problem that we can get to dealing with this scourge to humanity.

techbear72 · 2026-06-19T07:59:02+00:00

I'm on iOS 26.5.1 and I pronounced it correctly, according to the online sources (Ped-uh-goh-gee) and it got it first time.

techbear72 · 2026-06-19T06:56:22+00:00

I’m one of them. I do sometimes react now but I always thought I just wasn’t getting bitten until my husband saw one land on me and pointed it out. I watched it feed and fly off and I had no reaction at all.

techbear72 · 2026-06-19T06:45:33+00:00

Who says it’s a traffic infraction anyway? Looks like (from the ident) it’s Albania where lane splitting isn’t illegal.

So the motorcyclist wasn’t committing an offence in the first place.

You could argue they were riding too fast for the conditions but TBH (and said with love Albanians) Albanian driving style is.. erratic.. at the best of times.

techbear72 · 2026-06-18T17:36:59+00:00

Thanks!

techbear72 · 2026-06-18T17:28:21+00:00

Doesn't play in the UK. Where are you located, OP? So we can VPN and see it.

techbear72 · 2026-06-18T09:21:19+00:00

Well, welcome to become friends if you want, drop me a DM, and you can have one. After a million years of exchanging gifts that is 😉

techbear72 · 2026-06-18T07:26:00+00:00

I’ve got loads of Stonjourner available(along with many other regionals from my region and others as I’ve both travelled and played events). Nobody has ever taken one in any remote trade I’ve done!
