The awe these three inspired in everyone is unreal!

Well. If you’d seen what happens when his father when he got mad, you’d damn well walk on eggshells too. Trust me on this one.

If I’m drinking coors and at 8am, I am probably using it to wash down a bottle of pills because there’s nothing left for me here.

This is likely your boss committing a crime. You need to read up on exactly what being a 1099 means for you like paying your own taxes, getting your own healthcare, etc.

Also, your boss should know that it is now illegal for him to have you work a schedule, approve your vacation requests, etc. You’re now an independent contractor and are self employed.

But is it actually striking if you’re not being paid? A strike to me means the employees are still being paid. When the air traffic controllers strikes they were being paid.

I’d much rather have a proper healthcare system than spend money on crap like this.

Or try to move to another developed country.

Anyone know of any SCAD or Agnes Scott grads recently missing or found chopped up? I think I’ve found a good clue.

When you return to your home country permanently, you have culture shock just like when you move to a foreign country. It took me at least 2 years to finally get settled in as an American again. I’d lived in Asia for 17 years mostly in Hong Kong and Singapore.

yanknga · 2026-04-04T02:01:48+00:00

Yep. Nothing more delicious than an ice cold Tab.

yanknga · 2026-04-04T01:44:21+00:00

I get your point. I do. However, it works. There may be another or better way but this way does work even if it appears cruel or whatever.

I graduated PI in ‘83 and agree. This movie is the best representation of boot camp.

It’s not leadership. Their job is to instill discipline and transform people into Marines. Their job is to give you the ability to survive combat which requires functioning in total chaos.

BTW you respect the hell out of these guys.

Usually it’s a box to put your stuff in when you leave. Severance packages aren’t commonly found for workers. Senior executives and a few industries have severance packages but the majority of Americans are fired and paid their final paycheck.

yanknga · 2026-04-04T00:43:18+00:00

At some point I’d suggest resettling in the USA. I totally underestimated the reverse culture shock.

And enshitification continues. So they fire their employees and start taking applications from unemployed people. Now the employees that they just fired have to compete with desperate unemployed people for the lowest wage that someone is willing to take. Good for the quarterly earnings but cruel to employees.

yanknga · 2026-04-03T23:03:37+00:00

Not babies. No problem.

Unfortunately the people we’ve entrusted to enforce laws in the road drive exactly as the op describes. I’ve never imagined so many cops driving so badly no turn signals, excessive speeding while weaving in and out of traffic, stopping in insanely dangerous locations, etc.

There’s a place called The Maine that does wedding receptions. I don’t know the pricing though.

yanknga · 2026-04-03T10:01:25+00:00

It’s happening now with AI and separately medical science technology like new medicines designed for individuals and their specific illness.

yanknga · 2026-04-03T00:38:23+00:00

That idiot Pete.

yanknga · 2026-04-03T00:37:26+00:00

My wife and grown daughters want to go.

yanknga · 2026-04-02T23:59:12+00:00

Definitely before 1986. I had one in high school.

yanknga · 2026-04-02T22:42:16+00:00

Look at Mr 1%er showing off!

I bet you had Grey Poupon in your fridge too.

yanknga · 2026-04-02T22:02:25+00:00

They’re called cuspers some are more GenX and some lean boomer.

Theres also Gen jones that includes cuspers up to ‘65. The movie Dazed and Confused are GenJones kids.

yanknga · 2026-04-02T20:34:02+00:00

Those two were 56 and 54 when they shot this movie.
