I saw Wells Fargo discard peers of mine because they were older. Despite, their ability to perform. And they were with the company for 20-25 years. This is my upbringing in the corporate world. They sure loved celebrating someone retiring after that time and would send out emails and throw parties but when the dust settled, you didn’t matter to them as an employee. People got to see that especially in the 2008 downturn.

The reason there’s no organization man is because people in the current times have been exposed to the lie that is being part of the organizational “family”. Since employers are willing to discard employees like they are trash and cut pay and benefits while spouting the rhetoric of being a part of the family really laid bare how all of it was a PR campaign. I will change jobs as frequently as I need to keep advancing my career. If employers don’t deliver on their promises, I don’t need to show them any loyalty.

Humans deserve everything we’re about to get as a result of climate change but watching things like this happen is heartbreaking.

I think most companies do have a M365 subscription. If you are in a corporate environment, you will likely have access to the services. But it is dumb that you need to be internet connected and paying for a subscription service in order to integrate python visualizations. Still sucks that Microsoft like every other tech company is just about nickel and diming their customers into oblivion.

They just raised the price to $109. My daughter watches Disney but I’m about to start downloading her shows and movies. That’s absurd.

This is in no way to undermine the argument that UPS drivers deserve every penny they get paid. I am regularly very stressed out by my current client. Consulting can be an absolute bitch.

For sure. I escaped with my pregnant wife at the time. We left because their healthcare is dog shit and I absolutely hated the people there. Most of them were transient rich people that treated everyone like shit.

I lived in Florida for a couple years before moving back to my home state and I can't imagine having a trans, gay or non-binary child. It's absolutely demoralizing to be in a place that is actively sparking hate against you.

Exactly. It’s just text prediction software that is really good at making itself sound plausible. It could tell you something completely false and have no idea it’s stating a lie. There’s no intelligence here. It’s a very precise word guesser. Which is great for specific settings. But there’s a huge amount of hype associated with this tool and it’s very much by design (by tech companies).

Awesome. Thank you.

Because healthcare has been gutted and carved out by monied interests for 60+ years and they all have too much money at stake to let people just get affordable healthcare. They’re all busy skimming off the top. It’s absolutely sickening.

Downloaded. Looks great. Is there a plan to allow multiple account logins?

Bernie has his moments. AOC briefly had hers. Ilhan Omar is consistently on point. Despite Pelosi throwing her under the bus.

Absolutely. It’s become harder and harder to justify the pure evil that is the Israeli state. And the fact that so many Israelis are open about killing women and children.

Russian Jew here that hates Israel. Can confirm fuck Israel.

She looks very sweet. Ours is old and sleeps a lot too.

They do! That’s crazy. How old is your pup?

she looks exactly like my old dog! He’s 14.
