The crosshairs are not figurative. Not sure the general public has understood this yet.

grabyourmotherskeys , 4 months ago to politics in Nazis at CPAC is a frog-in-boiling-water moment for the right

The beginning of backroom concessions to the crazy wing of the party that are so very, very obvious.

Imagine that feeling on your temple. Some people get mild headaches. I can tolerate it but it kind of feels sore after 30 minutes or so. Personal preference, I guess.

I really think people think no one will notice. If you are stealing time and resources from your employer, you probably lack respect for them or have an inflated sense of your importance or expertise.

That... never occurred to me. I am not sure if I can personally but if I can't maybe a watch repair place could. Thank you, kind stranger!

Just to piggyback, this is a common way to deliver audio and is discrete but it drives some people nuts. There are lots of inexpensive bt headsets that use this. I'd try one before I spent a lot of money.

Yes I might but was hoping to resolve this with them amicably first. I work for a high volume ecommerce business and we have customers doing this even as we are working to refund them so I try not use this if I can help it (it's a tiny, tiny percentage of transactions before people start saying we must be terrible at customer service).

I'll try that. I spent weeks going back and forth with swatch support sending detailed info and pics, then they sent me the "bigger" band and it was same as what we had. Also out $50 some for the strap. Sigh.

Not half but a very large percentage. Nothing has made me lose more faith in humanity than this. It's wild.

You should probably lock your door when sleeping down the hall from him.

The band (not Jim) was the talent for sure. But as someone who was born in '72, I did enter teen years viewing him as the personification of Dionysus (which he cultivated). As an adult, I have no doubt he was an insufferable ass. :)

I have a beloved swatch from the nineties I am trying to expand the band on for my brother (he has MS so I'm trying to help with this as he has a hard time with phone calls, emails, and so on). Even swatch said all they could do was provide a larger band which was the same size (I am out $50 and they are not responding to my emails asking for a refund or replacement).

I'd love advice on this too!

Also the most insincere and cynical line in any speech he's ever given.

Of course, the people he aimed it at don't really believe it either or they'd maybe read the new testament even just a little.

You are probably very new to working in IT/programming if this shocks you and a clause like this is new to you.

I would ask myself how much a regular salary is worth over the value of a "maybe" idea you are not committed to already.

My personal advice is spend your time and energy honing your skills to increase your leverage with employers. When you are ready to take an idea to market you'll need to understand how businesses work, etc. You can learn that at work. Pay attention to everything.

You could not enforce "everything you do is ours" in Canada. You cannot write a contract that overrides employment law. Seems crazy you could do that but maybe US legislation allows it. I can see this, especially in states that are more "pro employer".
