Re: By Thy Words

Here's another thing about the folks who run dirty laundry websites. Are they OK with having a bit of mockery and critique directed at them as well? Is it OK to critique the criticizers? Sometimes that doesn't feel safe; as if they are the only ones certified for the role of a cynic. Many people wh...

Re: "We all quit"

I didn't mean 'required', I meant 'expected', as in "a common expectation or practice". The cynical part of me thinks that most employers are not going to give you two weeks notice before firing you. Yeah, you don't get a 2 week notice on being fired. They just want you to.give a 2 week n...

Re: Your attitude/perception towards unemployment benefits?

I don't know where you are from, but it is simply false to say that all wage workers pay into unemployment. Some of my employees contribute a token amount, but a sizeable percentage contribute nothing at all. The bulk of unemployment insurance premiums are paid by employers, not employees. Historic...

Re: Your attitude/perception towards unemployment benefits?

For people saying get rid of unemployment......

Then you will no longer have someone to work making box trucks as Morgan often has temporary layoffs and if their workers couldn't get unemployment they would all leave and find jobs that never have "down time"

Re: Your attitude/perception towards unemployment benefits?

Unemployment insurance is something that all wage workers pay into when they are working. So I think they are entitled to draw benefits when unemployed. Just like any other insurance policy. In fact, non-wage gig economy employers like Uber should probably be required to pay into unemployment so th...

Hiking

I spent a few hours today taking a hike and watching Bees. It was so wonderful to be out relaxing in nature. So wonderful to just see the beauty in the forest and watch all the wonderful animals

Re: The release of Bill Cosby?

I think people not realizing what rape actually is in all it's forms shows that we still have a far way to go in education. If a person is drugged they can not consent (even consent given if drugged is not consent). Any sexual thing done to said person is legally rape. Just like a child can not cons...

Re: The release of Bill Cosby?

Why focus on just one? Pedos and rapists should all be brought to justice. No need to focus on just one. They all hurt people AFAIK Cosby is not a pedo or a rapist. I'm sure he took sexual advantage of women using his fame and power, the defense was able to show a consistent pattern of these women ...

Re: The release of Bill Cosby?

People should focus their hate on Roman Polanski, and ignore Bill Cosby. The collective defense of Polanskyi is a large part of what led me to the conviction that as a Christian I could not support or consume Hollywood's product any longer. Why focus on just one? Pedos and rapists should all be bro...
