There will always be no new demands. He does not want a ceasefire, he wants a forever war to maintain his dictatorial powers for life.

Well great, now they have to either fix the statue, or rededicate it to The Flash.

Got_Bent , in Is the Great Resignation 2.0 coming? Nearly 3 in 10 workers plan to quit this year

I’ve become too old to be marketable in free agency so I’m stuck, but you better believe the day it’s financially viable to do so, and not a minute later, my happy ass will walk out into retirement and never look back.

Idk what you do, but don’t limit yourself. In my line of work, people with a shitpile of experience are very sought after

Reyali ,

I hired a 65-year-old guy last year. I knew he was older, but didn’t know his age until after he joined my team.

It was also a slightly new career path for him. He’d worked as an IT Project Manager for most of his career, focused on backend systems interacting only with other IT folks. Now he’s a Program Manager on a Product team so it’s not wildly different, but his stakeholders are significantly different and the way he works is different (focusing at a higher level than before).

And he is rockin’ it. I love working with him and seeing him grow into this role has brought me a lot of satisfaction. He is a great member of my team. He’s mentioned wanting to retire within 5 years and I’ll be sad when that happens, but I hope I have the chance to be his last manager and support him through when he makes that choice.

I’m not trying to minimize the challenges of changing jobs as you get older; the statistics speak for themselves. But I do hope that if you want that change that this anecdote might help inspire you. There are other hiring managers who will only care about what you can bring to the table.

Some of our best guys are in their 50s and 60s.

Some of our worst guys are in their 20s and 30s. Not inexperienced - just shitty workers and probably never going anywhere in their careers.

Then some of our best guys are also in their 30s and 40s.

I was there too. Then the company came out with a buyout that was available for anyone with enough years of seniority.

The package was worth more than if I had worked until I was eligible for my pension, so obviously I jumped all over that.

Best career move I’ve made in 20+ years!

My company (megacorp that bought out another megacorp I worked for) appears to no longer do early retirement buyouts.

Every year they whittle away a little more at the things that made it a good place to work. The past year has been especially bad.

Many of you may find this book interesting: Twilight of Democracy: The Seductive Lure of AuthoritarianismAvailable at a library near you, until banned. There are also some interesting audio interviews with the author online.

Samvega ,

Among the key clercs profiled in the book are Rafael Bardají (Spain), Ania Bielecka (Poland), Simon Heffer (United Kingdom), Laura Ingraham (United States), and Mária Schmidt (Hungary).[3] They have, according to Appelbaum, “come to betray the central task of intellectuals, i.e. the search for truth”.[3] Instead, their role is “to defend the leaders, however dishonest their statements, however great their corruption, however disastrous their impact on ordinary people and institutions”.[4]

This might interest more people to read the book, I found it stimulating.

It is a known fact that if your employer is not willing to give market rate comp, it is on you to get the market rate on the market.

But owners knows most of us are lil bitches who loath any discomfort or change. So he is able to attricion us.

If you can, you should be getting raises after 2-3 years per employer. They should he actually offering you more to keep you tbh but that's a sorry for a different time.

Entropywins ,

I’ve been at my new job a year and they said no raises for me this year…I now have 3 interviews next week. Chatted with my coworker and he is 3 years no rase and going on 4 this year but he doesn’t want to look for a new job…it blows my mind

Gloria , in Marijuana and Mexican cartels: Inside the stunning rise of Chinese money launderers

Up until 2019, fentanyl could be bought by just typing it into chinese onlineshops. Since then, China is not diverting the course of being the worlds 1# fentanyl producer and the #1 outlet market is still the USA. But China can not send it straight to the US anymore but is bringing it to mexico and using the already active routes to swamp the US with that deadly drug. The China-Iran-Russia connection would do anything to weaken the west. This is just one of their operations. The british addicting hundred of thousands chinese with opium 200 years ago in the 1830s is still a very big ignominy in chinas victim narrative (Century of Humiliation). Applying this scheme back to “the west” is their tit-for-tat response to pay back. Chinese ambassadors and cultural attaché mention it all the time in interviews in the last 20 years.

Draegur , in Trump, Vance head to Georgia after Harris event in same arena.

It would be so fucking funny if he had a significantly smaller attendance. Like, just a couple dozen idiots. Nobody in the upper stands. I’d laugh SO HARD.

But knowing the Republicans, they’ll probably bus people in to populate the event, because that’s what they accuse others of doing and they’re always projecting.

Kids on TikTok should do the thing they did with his Tulsa really, where they reserved a bunch of tickets and never showed up.

if only i were popular with the kids on tiktok, i’d try to have them do exactly this again

Even just based on the headline I thought, “Trying to obscure their motivations from people? Right-wing psyop”.

There it is.

its mission is to “advocate for minimal government intervention…"

There it is.

Maybe we should stop giving these people a platform and instead interview non-cultists.
