  • Why's it your job to deescalate a situation that angry customers turn hostile, particularly after initial attempts fail?

    For most people, that's just allowing them to offload their stress onto you, and that's not fair. We should have to hold other people accountable for their shitty behavior, lest they learn the wrong lessons.

    The only time imo you could argue it's ok is with seniors, because they ain't gonna learn...

  • I could understand Hilary not getting elected, but Harris? She's as blank slate as any presidential candidate could get ( and maybe that was the problem). But the demographics which shifted the most politically, was the Hispanic and black male (whom tend to be less educated) voters towards the right. That could either be populism or misogyny, and considering they were leaning left when elected Biden the previous term, I'm leaning towards the latter reason.

  • Sucks to think about, especially since relative to the past we are in the most prosperous times, but people used to be happier in generations prior because they had cheap third places to go to, had a purpose and community.

    And now our lives are surrounded by substitute and vicarious experiences that will never afford us true fulfillment. And like a drug, it saps us of the motivation to actually change any of it.

  • The wiki article on his death says that the San Antonio PD is saying that there was no evidence of hate crime up to that point, but if this was ongoing for literal years over 300+ incidents, i find that hard to believe. They need an outside-led investigation into that county PD.
