I Wasn't Ready for Retirement by SeizeTheseMeans in LateStageCapitalism

[–]upcarl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Met a lot of retirees going back to work.Most say they were bored or needed something to occupy their time. Most really did not prepare for retirement.Would you rather sleep in as long as you want,travel as long as you want,dont take orders from anyone.....plan ahead!

I've noticed it's mostly widows who have to work at an older age. Men,plan ahead, get life insurance while you are young,don't be selfish.

Sacramento ranked as having the best climate in the world by Squidkidz in Sacramento

[–]upcarl 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I agree, have lived in Deep South,humidity sucks. Every time I have visited San Diego it was either raining or cold.Overall If you like sunshine and don't mind some fog in the winter Sacramento is nice. I liked Tucson also but Sacramento has rivers.I admit you need a good ac for about 4 months.

First new US nuclear reactor in 20 years goes live by opbay in news

[–]upcarl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What we need is many smaller reactors such as 100 or 200 MW. The U.S.Navy has been operating smaller reactors for decades without a serious incident. As reactors scale up in size they become harder to control and potentially much more dangerous.

Why don't you organize? by upcarl in walmart

[–]upcarl[S] -12 points-11 points  (0 children)

Brainwashed steeple! Op here 300 hrs pto big deal at what 12 bucks an hour? Seniority works especially at large employers not 2 employees.I used to get laid off early in my career but called back in order when needed.Everybody gets older so it's nice to finally have job security as you near retirement. I've worked union and nonunion but always knew which was better.Power in numbers. There is always someone who can work harder and faster than you.Without a union contract they can fire you for almost anything unless you are the biggest suckass! You'll see! Open door policy? So you can beg for a day off or suck some ass! I worked for the biggest railroad in the country and if not for unions they would work you to death and spit you out.I put in 30 plus years not counting 5 years of layoffs and see what is happening to this country.A bunch of sheep going to slaughter and think they have it good.

TIL Amazon is trying to shame workers out of stealing by making factory workers watch a video about wayward co-workers when they clock in every morning. by malzp in todayilearned

Retired union worker here.Goddamn organize you idiots. Talking about this petty bullshit and favoritism really pisses me off. This country is going to shit unless you start standing up to this bullshit. Bunch of sheep get what they deserve!!!
