One sleeve per bite. Take one sleeve in the morning and one in the evening. Call me in the morning.

Wow... You okay?

Bloodletting was dismissed in the 1870s. The first double blind rct was 1943.

Additionally, we use leeches for certain situations.

In the last 25 years leech therapy has made a comeback in the area of microsurgery and reimplantation sur­gery. Hirudo medicinalis can secrete several biologically active substances including hyaluronidase, fibrinase, proteinase inhibitors, and hirudin, an anticoagulant.

The leech can help reduce venous congestion and prevent tissue necrosis. In this way it can be used in the postoperative care of skin grafts and reimplanted fingers, ears, and toes. Because of concern regarding second­ary infections a “mechanical leech” has been developed at the University of Wisconsin.

I've never seen it as "vaccers" only "vaxxers". Also, 2018!

Musk, Zuckerberg, and CEOs don't make social value. The workers do.

We don't call them group nouns either. We call then collective nouns.

I really dont think I am. I really do think it's a mass noun.

Fair enough. But we have a number of English word from Latin that we pluralize using English rules. Campuses and stadiums come to mind.

And the plural of antenna is antennas! 🤯

Grains of sand.

This is exactly how mass nouns work.

A lot of mass nouns have specific words for when you want to separate them, like “slices” or “loaves” for bread or “grains” for sand, salt, wheat, and rice.

Nice story bro.

fck this stuid ss study. It's sht.

I don't feel any better.

Nah... Just kidding. That felt great.

Why not start the process of transforming it into a coop sooner? I know a business owner getting ready to retire, in the same boat as you. Except now he's gonna have finance the sale for them and not all of them want to be an owner. To me, that is silly, but more power, more problems.

I agree with the OP's response. It was well written and gave you several options. In particular, the point about cultural expectations sounds like the most pertinent. I don't know what your working relationship is with your director, but the fact that they first apologized and second, when they understood your motives, lauded you.

It does suck having your good faith questions misinterpreted. However, it's unclear what your director did or said that made you feel you were kissing his ring. Did he scold you? Or just explain how he felt about your question?

Others have given resources about coops and flat heirarchies, but this sounds like you want a very specific corporate culture. Even in the right fit, you are influencing people and will have to work with their personalities. Politics will always be part of the game as long as there are limited resources and risks in allocating those resources.

I don't see how taxation changes the balance of power. Their power is not, as you said, the size of their bank account, but in their ownership of the company's assets. They also don't create the company's value with their work. The employees do.

This is more of what I remember.

I want to dip my balls in it.

Sand worm's maw.

A wizard! Tis why they fled.
