American here: Costco's food court is amazing, but the shopping experience is absolutely terrible. For such a 'great' company, they only manage to staff less than half the registers as lines form throughout the store.
It is not because they cant find anyone to work there, it's just they want to save as much money as they can by overloading their employees with work/metrics.
I'm just anti-fascist, which include the US and China. You can tell who's a boot if they come to the defense of these two
Our individualism + believing we're exceptional
No, just your job duties are split amongst your team until you get back. The corporate overlords keep churning, even if your parents or child dies. Don't have enough PTO allocated? Then you'll get fired.
I did IT for a major Tool Manufacturer in the US and this scenario actually happened to me, being the person who went under a mental breakdown.
Same shit my co-workers said to another member on the team, except in her case she chose to be with her children instead of sacrifice her parental time for shareholder profits. I knew when I took my PTO+sick days that my team would said the same behind my back.
It astonishes me that the majority of Americans are OK with this type of work life.
You mean the NRA is a golden funnel that received money from Russia to funnel into republican politicians to buy their vote to promote Russian interests.
McCarthyism back on the menu, heterosexual boys!
This is Republicans soft launching "children yearn for the mines" rhetoric. USA is effectively regressing and removing what originally made this country "great." I fear for my children as they grow older. I can only do so much as a parent to steer them onto a path of least hardship, but Republicans are increasingly making that difficult.
Consumers punting the accountability and responsibility of their demise to the next generation of consumers. I hate how feeble and weak willed we are all as a species.
Forgot to mentiom: Zone 10B SoCal
I'll tie a mesh bag to capture some seeds as rods I saw a lot laid out on my driveway
DoD uses to be called DoW, but was changed to give a better image of the country. Reverting back to DoW under this administration, is not the good sign people think it is.
Also, that joke Pete Hegseth can't even do a proper pull up, let alone a chin up. Pathetic.
