Seriously. I want highly detailed, equally highly concise emails. Send me an email with the topic in the subject and only relevant bullet points in the body and I’ll love the hell out of you.
Get out of here with your nuance, don’t you realize you’re on the Internet?!
In all seriousness, thanks. I think what a lot of people tend to forget is none of these things are inherently bad. They’re just often misused and/or overused, typically due to the insatiable capitalist profit motive.
My wife also works in HR and I now work in an adjacent department, EHS. I came to post pretty much the same as you did.
I will add that it’s interesting reading these threads and seeing the conspiracy theory type comments uniformly painting HR across the world. They speak as if the employees that comprise HR have no agency or are uniformly of one mindset, protecting the company at all costs, even though that doesn’t benefit them personally at all. It’s a simple solution for a complex situation, so it sounds good but doesn’t hold up under the merest scrutiny.
We get the same shit in EHS, how we’re just there to prevent company liability and don’t really care. It’s quite frustrating since it’s anything but true and tends to be perpetuated by employees who don’t actually engage with EHS, so they don’t actually know who we are or what we do. Reading through the comments, it’s much the same here.
But if you’re on the Internet and not providing unsolicited, passive-aggressive advice, are you REALLY on the Internet?
I feel Musk is an experiment testing what would happen if you gave an Internet troll of middling intelligence billions of dollars.
I doubt anyone here believes that what you stated is untrue. You’re getting downvoted for being a passive-aggressive, melodramatic wet blanket.
Is this you too?
At a child’s birthday party: “What awful parents, providing dessert. Don’t they know childhood obesity and diabetes are on the rise?”
At the pub: “Get your shit together, chronic alcohol consumption doubles your likelihood of stomach and liver cancer.”
With a friend: “Why do you hate yourself? You’re clearly at least 20 pounds overweight. The earth has limited resources, stop using your advantage as a member of the global North and eating other people’s food.”
They’re all true and, like your comment, needlessly needling and hyperbolic. Consider there’s more to communication than your false dichotomy defensive reaction of “true or not”. There’s also appropriate time, place, and tact, all of which you clearly didn’t consider. That’s why you’re getting downvoted.
This is the way. We had what we suspected was a neighbor’s cat that used to come visit. She didn’t have a collar, so we bought one and attached a little metal keychain pill holder so we could pass notes to them. It was fun and we got to meet a new neighbor.
A little of both, but I think it’s mostly enshittification. I’ve had nothing but trouble with Asus, to the point where I don’t buy their products anymore and try to persuade others to avoid them.
Luckily, while this has happened in the past, there isn’t a recent incident tied to this post.
The smell is often also moist.
LOL
A post about bathroom usage seems an appropriate place for douchery.
I was taught the same. I got extra credit for memorizing that the Nile River was a “notable exception”.
While I didn’t go to school in Texas, our school district used material developed there. It figures.
I have stout, wide, “Fred Flintstone” feet. Is there a market for my people?
I have ADHD with ASD tendencies, despite not being autistic (long story). People like us are more frequently the types who find something new to be interesting, then dive in and learn EVERYTHING about it. For example, I recently bought a new car and spent days near obsessively learning about it. How it works (first electric car), how to model current vs acceleration, how to tear it down and rebuild it, etc. I’m now in the process of compiling a FAQ for my wife, who doesn’t share my obsessive tendencies and can’t retain my frequent “hey sweetie, this is interesting!” data dumps, and setting up monitoring and automations for it on our home lab.
I used to think this was what everyone did. Turns out it’s not normal.
I just tried this and it’s genius! I haven’t ever given side mirror adjustment any thought.
Idaho, the South of the North. I now live in Washington, where that kind of shit doesn’t fly.
No, you’re fine! I didn’t specify. I lived with it for so long, it didn’t even occur to me to outline the process.
