Or you could teach him. Better for both of you.

Can you turn off the memories feature?

Before my Facebook account was hacked and I never got a new one, it would show me memories of when my mom died.

Not always. I think the best people think they WON’T be let go and some others who don’t perform, figure they are on the chopping block.

In our case it didn’t matter because they wound up having four rounds of layoffs before shutting that location down entirely. So it really wound up being WHEN you were fired, not IF.

I worked with a guy who’s wife had just had a baby and the baby was sick. The guy was very good at his job but was working from home without really asking permission. We have some leeway in this matter but technically he didn’t clear it. His supervisor really had it in for him and was trying very hard to get him fired for falsifying his time card. I don’t know why he didn’t like him, but the supervisor was a real ass. It may have been racist motivation, but I’m not sure.

I should point out that I had asked this guy to do some work for me that I didn’t have the capability to do and this guy approached it in such a unique way that the customer and some universities were really interested in his work. This is a defense contractor environment where every working hour has to be accounted for. Whenever I asked the guy a question whether via email or telephone, he always responded immediately. It was all computer code so I didn’t see a problem with this.

When he came into work and told me what was going on I immediately contact the manager on his behalf.

Well bottom line is that management pretty much dropped the subject and the supervisor was walked out of the facility. Turns out he had been falsifying his own time card the whole time. How’s that for hypocrisy?

Justice served.

I worked for a company that did just that and it was the best way to do it because a lot of people left on their own.

Yup, I worked for a company that was laying off but they were still hiring because, “they had a hiring policy.” Absolutely nonsensical.

Figures, I read here that he also said that he wanted to drag the dead bodies of Trump’s political enemies into the street and burn them.

Couldn’t read the article. Which AG hopeful was it?

No.

Did you use the calories or the grams of sugar to determine the amount?

It’s funny because what you describe is way BETTER than I would have expected. LOL.

Termite treatment.

Thank you. Nuance, you know.

This is so flawed it isn’t even funny.

You need way more than 1,000,000 fingers. This is America after all. Even if you use all ten fingers, that’s only like 9.9 million guns.

Absolutely, but there are a few problems with this. First, I live in the US. Americans do NOT know how to negotiate a roundabout. There is a roundabout near my house. The instructions of how to use it are posted on signs as you approach. They are wrong. They actually have inside lanes exiting across the outside lanes that can continue around. So not only is it wrong but it’s teaching the locals here what NOT to do at a normal roundabout.

Second, they don’t fit at existing intersections.

Third, I think they would be more expensive than just a piece of tech attached to traffic lights that already exist.

I mean the best solution would be some good public transportation, but I’m trying to be more realistic here. That’s for more civilized nations. In the US the car rules. And the bigger, the better.

Timing traffic lights. They could look down the road and see when nothing is coming, to let the other direction go, like a traffic cop. It would save time and gas.

It’s not just, you know, Halloween?

You mean the worst? I don’t know. I’m just hopeful that I’m not actually the worst. Fingers crossed.

Nope. I’m just that bad. I feel like I have a logical mind but it just seems like the command don’t do what I think they will, won’t operate on a certain type of variable or Holy crap I forgot a friggin space or semi-colon or something.

But when I say proficient I seriously mean looking stuff up on the internet for every single line. And I haven’t used Basic in decades.
