Just because these countries are much more walkable than other countries doesn’t mean they don’t have a massive car culture.

Germany and cars are the equivalent of Americans and guns. And Poland has a growing car culture that definitely gets overlooked

That’s why they need all of those consonants, so they can communicate with it

Best brand of rum I’ve ever tried. Their Jamaican casks are my favorites, and the OFTD Overproof and 3 Stars for when I can’t find those.

No no no, it’s called intermittent fasting

Yeah that’s definitely the wrong way

That’s very similar to what I meant lol. Not sure why everyone assumes it’s bad to do. Like with a lot of things, there’s a right way and a wrong way to do it.

Seriously. Sex is already dirty, help your partner by maintaining your hygiene. But seriously wash any raw meat you buy or butcher, and be careful of who cooks your food.

Edit: People assuming I don’t keep a clean kitchen and that I wash raw meat under a running faucet.

I found it pretty easy by explaining that if reddit is a website, then Lemmy is a search engine that just has a similar feel to it.

It isn’t accurate, but gets the point across to those who don’t understand tech.

:(

Dude that’s not their cat, that’s their Khajiit roommate

Well it isn’t going to get done by itself

Of course lol obviously I want a team member that works hard and is motivated, and ultimately polite and easy to work with. But also, people can change. Things happen in their lives that change their motivations and needs.

If they just want money, that’s fine, but I’ve seen and experienced how pushing someone who is working decently (or great, even) can cause their performance to tank if they didn’t want to be pushed in first place.

Managing large teams is less about managing their work and more about managing the people so that they can work more effectively.

I don’t control the hiring process and I don’t control the incoming members of my team, so don’t assume I’m an idiot. My team has excellent performance and I was able to get approval for my team to grow from 30 to 60+ people.

IDK why you assume I don’t try to encourage my team, honestly. We get good results so I reward them well. For our line of work and our company, we have greater efficiency than a majority of our counterparts in our region. If we performed poorly, I would have a different approach.

We do have people the test the boundaries, so I work with them on it and try to improve it. If nothing gets better, I have them replaced.

I’ve been in a management role for the past 3yrs. I always tell my team that I don’t expect more than the minimum stated in our job responsibilities, that I expect us to work as a team when needed, to maintain a moderate balance between their work and their lives, and to try and maintain a positive attitude.

Work sucks, so I don’t care so much about motivation, but I want my team to be happy. None of us want to be working, but none of us want to be miserable, either.

Be authentic but learn to be friendly because it helps you and those around you. From a career standpoint, I’ve seen people go far and make tons of money due to this, even if they weren’t the that intellectual or motivated.

Nah, because chest compressions in rhythm are the best thing until medical professionals arrive. The degree to which the straws / shields help is minimal at best and actually detrimental at worst.

Also, anyone reading this should get certified. In the US, it takes a couples hours in one day and lasts a year.

Actually, please don’t. It’s Lemmy and we need all the users we can get

People like Kirk will see that quote and say things like, “See, not every belief is equal and not every belief should be defended, that’s how we got to this point.” The mental gymnastics is incredible

Personally, I think very few people in life are truly independent and never need help or assistance with something. As far as thriving, I know way more people that are struggling with something like their finances, health, or something else.

I think most people either get lucky early on and their lives generally go well, or they don’t get lucky early in life.

Edit: As a child, I thought life was hard but ultimately a good experience if you put in the work and did the right things. As I got older, I realized that my life is mostly bleak but with some good experiences throughout.
