Well, did you?

Stop trying to make your shitty politics into memes.

God you lot are insufferable.

So I could move to bumfuck nowhere and get paid to chill out in my car, while my coworkers pick up my slack?

No, that's Alice's problem.

It sounds like an incentive not to hire people who live too far away from the office to me.

Because the simplest option for the company is not to hire Bob.

Bob chose to live and work where he does, he can live with the consequences of his choices.

I don't feel sorry for bob.

Who would hire Bob, in that case?

So either move house or move job then.

They have the choice of paying for the convenience of living close to work, or spending time commuting. That's not something an employer will or should care about.

Is this their time as well, or just travel costs?

The answer is they don't compensate them, because that would be silly.

Why would an employer care how far away their employees live, or compensate them for their travel?

Unless the employer also gets to decide where they can and can't live, why should they compensate them?

This is why I put a cat flap in my bedroom door, my cat does exactly this and doesn't understand the concept of closing it behind him.

Realistically, a government couldn't notify every single map maker, but my view is that the map maker should be obliged to act when notified.

In the case of paper maps, if they were notified of the bridge, and proceeded to publish a new version of the map showing it as operational, then yes, they should face consequences. paper maps don't provide turn by turn directions though, so less safety critical.

OK, that explains a lot actually. Do you think she'll try and hold on another four years if Biden gets reelected?

Not an obligation to proactively update the map, but if someone notifies them about a closure or other safety issue, in my view they have a duty of care to act.

Lawyers for the Paxsons allege that several people have tried to flag the washed-out bridge to Google and have included email correspondence between a Hickory resident who tried to use the “suggest an edit” feature in 2020 to get the company to address the issue.

If Google were notified of this, and failed to act in a timely manner, they should face consequences. Obviously they're not the only people who dropped the ball, but they definitely failed this person.

America in general seems to have a massive problem with absolute geriatrics refusing to make way for the next generation. Their politicians, lawmakers, judges, all older than the hills.
