The "do horrible thing to save someone" story, yeah, maybe.
But the pig thing had been going around for years about the then/former prime minister. Some kind of hazing at eton or wherever those posh folks go. The episode was just a reference to that.
I am in the wrong thread man. My comments are purely based on the billet labs thing where this thread started, and those not directly involved with the sexual harassment being grouped in with the unethical lack of integrity brush.
Yeah I mean things drop through the cracks. Humans is humans.
As a foreigner in the same city as LMG the work culture is to never say no, I get in to a bunch of professional trouble when saying no. So turning down work to make yourself less busy is hard for some here. I'm just suggesting that this may not be mallace and pure evil, the situation is a product of the work and office culture there. It would play out differently in different parts of the globe.
Badly worded, my main take away to see it again, I do see past Ken. And like you say, if you're witnessing people saying that Ken made the movie then that's the exact problem I'm conveying.
It's probably overwork, rather than a malicious lack of integrity. Guy left a to field empty and moved on with his day, well probably was sending 900 emails a day and can't keep track. Sexual harassment in the workplace? Can't think of that we have deadlines!
(downvote edit lol: not defending Linus, not defending the actions, or those involved in it all. Just pointing out that mistakes are made when overworked rather than tainting everyone at LMG with the unethical / lack of integrity brush)
It felt odd, marketed as a female movie, It had a female lead, women that talk to other women, but half way through I commented to my partner that this feels like a movie about Ken.
My only take away as a dirty male is I can t wait to see it again for Ken, but when it's streaming.
From memory of a video saw on the topic, in the district where it was lodged there is only a list of 7 judges to pick from in florida. But it gets narrowed down to two for various reasons (security clearance?), and it turns out the other judge is busy or on holidays.
Edit: this legal Eagle video covers a bit of the selection https://youtu.be/_S8R2Nri5pU. TL;DW: "random" from list of 7 judges but cannon has one of the highest chances of getting the case.
Used to work in garden/hardware supply company. The best selling product cost $16 for manufacturing and delivery to our warehouse from China. They would sell in [national hardware chain] for $699. It was about a 40% markup in store, the rest of that $699 was eaten up by warehousing, shipping and staffing costs. If you couldn't move that product in a reasonable timeframe then you'd start losing money on warehouse costs.
I figure most items I've purchased are 40% profit, 50% warehouse/shipping/staffing, 10% manufacturing/import.
I made a little brown bump.
