exocrinous , in what do you do?

I didn't get panel 4 at first because I assumed she writes at a restaurant. It's not as cliche as a cafe, but sometimes the lines are blurred.

walter_wiggles , in what do you do?

She's a secretary, she probably can't afford to do anything.

Dude, the only redeeming thing about being disabled and out of the work force is being able, at any time of day, to grab a drink of whatever I want, and go chill in my back yard.

Coffee, tea, hot chocolate in cooler weather. Ice water, lemonade, or iced tea in warmer weather. There may or may not be a half shot of bourbon involved on very rare occasions (I'm really not much of an alcohol drinker).

Like, we have chickens now, and I'll sometimes go out of a morning with my beverage of choice, my camp chair, and just fuck with the rooster while he crows.

I strongly encourage anyone still working to find time to do what this post describes. Just do it.

The best time to start lifemaxxing is 20 years ago. The second best time to start is today.

What do you have against horny rottweilers?

Ulvain , in What would you do?

Well technically the worst (but absolutely legal) thing you can do, from their perspective is to be very well versed in your rights for the state or province you're in. Is it a dismissal without cause? Then what severance are they offering? Did your negotiate it? Basically they'll want you to sign something and promise not to sue - in exchange to signing this they'll offer something. Negotiate that... Usually in the form of X weeks of pay per years of service at your employer, but X can vary and be negotiated. You can also negotiate a referral letter from your boss even though companies usually say "we don't make referral letters" - as part of my package negotiation you will...

I hope it helps!!

anarchrist , in What would you do?

That's funny and all, but the real answer is call in sick to fuck with them, provided it's the kind of job with sick time/vacation time.

Viking_Hippie ,

provided it's the kind of job with sick time/vacation time.

And even if it isn't, what're they gonna do? Double-fire you?

cyborganism , in What would you do?

You know what sucks? For all the employees there, including HR, they would definitely sympathize with the person pulling this.

The people at the top however? CEOs and whatnot? They wouldn't fucking care. I don't even think they would have an ounce of sympathy.

That's the reality.

jaybone , in Work really hard...

Spoiler alert: this will also be you if you don’t work at all.

Anticorp , in Work really hard...

I suppose that's a better tombstone than "excessively masturbated in public".

Hey, why do you have my tombstone?!

E: also who defines "excessively" really

Anticorp ,

also who defines "excessively" really

In public? I'd say one time. One time is excessive.

Glaive0 , in CEOs Are Using Return To Office Mandates To Mask Poor Management

Contracting job I had pushed a “return to work” (not return to office, return to WORK) mandate. We put up a stink and they had to do an in person HR meeting with everyone. They listed all the nonsense that “return to work” would solve m. I asked how they had already tried to solve those problems for the hybrid remote environment. They looked like they hadn’t even considered it a possibility.

I looked elsewhere.

eatthecake , in We don’t exist to be exploited by billionaires

Stop buying stuff. Essentials only. Kill the economy. Staycation. No fashion. No makeup. No upgrades. No games. You do not need an air fryer.

KairuByte , in Who would have guessed...

I get it, but these substances aren’t “legal” in the same sense meant in the quote. Amphetamines, in the US at least, is a Schedule II drug. Meaning it needs to be prescribed.

If you’re using it in the same way you would cocaine, you’re abusing it. Which is still very much illegal.

That's not the point. The point is that workers are so dehumanized and alienated from their life essence that they need stimulants just function under the capitalist mode of production. The legality or the drug itself isn't the point. Had antidepressants and antianxiety meds existed in Marx's time he would have mentioned that instead. Indeed, elsewhere he talks about opium
