So in the 17th century, the Bishop of Quebec approached his superiors in the Church and asked whether his flock would be permitted to eat beaver meat on Fridays during Lent, despite the fact that meat-eating was forbidden. Since the semi-aquatic rodent was a skilled swimmer, the Church declared that the beaver was a fish. Being a fish, beaver barbeques were permitted throughout Lent. Problem solved!
The idea that fish is ok makes no sense. It makes sense from the fact that denying easy protein to a culture living in a desert on the ocean would NEVER fly. But not in any way for categorization.
One of their origin stories is, that a monk created them so he can secretly eat meat on Fridays. Since the meat was cut very small and “hidden” in the dough between vegetables and other stuff, God wouldn’t be able to see it. That’s why it’s also called “Herrgottsbscheißerle” in swabian which roughly translates to “small cheater on God”.
The bible says it’s legal to smoke crack if you do it in a room made out of pasta because if God doesn’t see it, it didn’t happen. I didn’t read the bible or anything but neither do most religious people so same difference.
Yeah the idea that somebody has a percentage rating of quality is genuine lunacy. It’s also sociopathic to overlook that being fond of someone despite their flaws or “lower rating”.
This seems to be the whole point. Neg the other person and make them question their own worth. "Oh, no! I'd better keep them happy. Is THAT GUY 10% better than me!?"
If they chew open mouthed and are not amenable to change that is a straight up deal breaker, sorry not sorry, my misophonia doesn't leave room to compromise on that.
It’s funny because I know you don’t work at my company but those are word for word the messages we get constantly as we continue to lose IT people and specialists
PS. We’ve been receiving noise complaints from employees with offices near the cafeteria, outside of lunch hours. Please keep the noise in that area to a minimum out of respect for your peers.
We are getting ready to have to RTO next week. Buy every single person on my team was hired after the company went fully remote and only 4 of us out of 14 are near an office to return to. So, we get to drive in rush hour traffic there and back, not have enough seats/monitors and may not get to be near our team members that ARE there. And, regardless, till have to be on Teams calls all day because the majority of our team is is spread out across the country and internationally.
They won’t even have the cafeteria operational yet, no immediate plans to do so either, nor is it big enough to seat everyone. They will have one coffee shop that they have assured us “serves lunch items”, but we’ll have ~1000 people in the building trying to get lunch and i’ve never seen a coffee shop serve more than one or two sandwiches a minute. So… for the ~120 of you that get fed, congrats.
Also, the nice thing is that they pulled back the original 4 day in office requirement to only 2 days. However, the only reason for that is because they realized they literally cannot get everyone in the building at once and it’s not even close. So, I’m not filled with confidence on the logistics of this.
At my workplace, executives get bonuses for how well they implement RTO. It’s written in their performance agreements. Guess who has all the RTO exemptions?
Our cafeteria is just a big room with chairs. The food court that was next to it has since gone bankrupt during COVID and all the storefronts are empty. It’s a giant Teams call zoo.
10 minutes is rookie numbers. You gotta unpack the standing desk, under desk treadmill, pink gaming chair, kneeling chair, second and third monitors, clamps, cables, coffee warmer, family photos, keyboard, mouse, tarot cards, incense, bobblehead, giant water jug. Ideally, by the time you finish, it’s about time to start packing it up again.
Omg there’s this toy my kid had (we gave it away) that we called the “Euro Crab” and it would play European Rave/EDM type music and frantically zipped side to side around your living room. My dog was traumatized.
For some reason that made me think that if aliens ever wanted to take over the earth, they just have to become CEOs. Nobody would be able to tell the difference.
Isn’t that the whole point of the lizard people conspiracy? That lizard aliens are controlling us by silently sitting in positions of power (CEOs/rich people/politicians).
