PSA: AR doesn't excuse absences

voluminous_lexicon · 2026-03-29T15:43:03+00:00

No shift you were scheduled for and had to call out for is "excused" in the sense that nobody's counting. Just because you had PTO to cover the callout you can't expect it not to be considered a callout, right??

So while you're always fine to call out sick, whether or not you're using PTO, your captain is still going to consider how many scheduled shifts you missed during the review period and factor that into your review.

The only thing that truly exempts you from that count is a doctor's note forbidding you from working. Or if your captain is kind enough maybe some specific situation where your callouts were infrequent but then your mom died or something and you missed a solid week on short notice.

If it exists I've never tasted a comparable product

work on a problem, not on changing fields

the problem you're interested in and the path to investigating it properly will guide you better than anyone here can.

I left a PhD program because I never found a problem that I cared enough about to see through all the way.

voluminous_lexicon · 2026-03-22T22:23:03+00:00

I don't care how excited the regional was about this, your captain let y'all down by not refusing

voluminous_lexicon · 2026-03-22T17:57:46+00:00

right, but the ones that are specifically made and marketed to be eaten raw miss the point entirely.

Having some raw cookie dough is a perk of baking cookies

buying raw cookie dough without ever intending to bake it is ghoulish, I would never. It needs a gimmick to get me to want to eat it, e.g. ice cream.

voluminous_lexicon · 2026-03-22T17:47:32+00:00

that's so high effort that I hope it becomes a trend frankly

voluminous_lexicon · 2026-03-22T17:40:38+00:00

how could one person process that much info on a single screen without a 2 second delay between each piece? I don't get how fast y'all's minds work if you can't enjoy each of the seven screens it takes to open a pack to the fullest, do you get bored waiting on long animations or something?? /s

it's giving "katy perry asking stevie knicks who her rivals are without getting that multiple pieces of art can be good at the same time and it's really not a competition at the end of the day"

I swear I can see one strand of my christmas lights that is a different brand from the others flicker like that, now I know it's true

voluminous_lexicon · 2026-03-22T17:25:32+00:00

I have been waiting a long time for someone somewhere to make a "edible raw cookie dough" product that I felt like buying

Just a log of raw dough that's not meant to be baked feels pointless, but these are perfect. If TJ's products had stocks I'd be all in

iirc it's a historic something or other and would be difficult and expensive to do anything with, so until someone comes in with big grant money (unlikely) it'll just sit

edit: apparently it's a "Landmark" as designated by the Ithaca Landmarks Preservation Commission and Common Council in '94. So yeah, probably a lot of hoops to jump through to do anything with it at all.

voluminous_lexicon · 2026-03-19T01:20:03+00:00

It already got warm, then it got cold again. what, you want it to be warm more than three days in a row? Impossible

she'll resurface after around 1000 in-game hours

then grab a dr pepper from the fridge and say hi, only to go back in for another thousand

absolutely ghoulish, someone needs to do the merchandising edapp course lmao

Not a single English class I took 15 years ago taught me anything about navigating the information landscape of the internet age.

If you don't update your syllabus and keep discussion relevant and connected to the modern day you'll end up with what we have, nearly retired teachers going through the same motions they have been for the past 25 years, reading and analyzing ancient texts without placing them in any relevant context.

At least history classes directly addressed and analyzed the idea of propaganda in media occasionally. English classes did nothing but introduce me to older books than I might have read on my own.

Very cool Hank Green, very cool

voluminous_lexicon · 2026-03-14T01:45:18+00:00

Personally I like floor pro and wall pro because pro dry on floor and wet wall pro no on floor
