  • Are the donors really going to stick around if the Dems get plastered every election (if there is another one) and never win anything? One of three things will happen, to wit.

    1. nothing changes and the Democratic Party is toothless, useless and abandoned.
    2. The working populace starts a new leftist party and the Democratic Party is dead.
    3. the DNC pushes further left and wins back some votes

    I think #3 is the least likely to happen. Although in the near future I think it doesn’t matter at all, because we’ve sunk into the mid to late 1930’s Germany. I hope our allies in Europe is prepared to move forward without our support.

  • I’ve been in your exact situation, and I’ll tell you what was once told to me by someone older and wiser than myself. When you determine that your plate is full, you ask your manager to help you prioritize the tasks you’re being assigned. You lay out all the shit that’s been dumped on you, and ask for the order in which they want it done.

    If they understand, they’ll stop piling on and you’ll get some relief.

    If they don’t understand or say something like “you’ll figure it out” look for the door and find another job as quickly as possible.

  • Hey, since you mentioned gout (and I read the rest so I know you don’t have it) that’s definitely something totally preventable and treatable, and also definitely something you don’t want to leave untreated.

    But hey, fellow Clevelander beehawer, welcome aboard!

  • “None of this is an endorsement of Donald Trump’s vile, racist agenda, which includes advancing the apartheid and genocidal interests of a foreign state while falsely claiming to put America first,” the letter said.

    The irony is palpable here, because not voting against Trump is specifically endorsing Trump’s agenda. I’d discuss it further, but there’s no point. They can do whatever they want, it’s a free country for now.

  • I’m old enough now that I’m more financially secure than I ever have been before, and I still think we should tear it all down and create a more equitable system for everyone. Perhaps I’m in the minority though for people my age.

    Politicians sew division, fear, and hatred knowing that this will allow them to continue fleecing everyone who works for a living. We should never forget that it’s a big club, and you ain’t in it.

  • Impostor syndrome is a bitch

    Yes it is, but look - onboarding at a new place is always tough. I’m assuming you didn’t lie and your resumè isn’t completely full of shit; you’ll do great. Bring in the knowledge you hold from your previous experience, and be willing to learn from your new employer, and you’ll rock out. You can handle this for sure.
