  • Hey friend you get spam on the internet too maybe you need to go cancel your internet service?

    No I get it there’s many benefits to being on the internet despite the spam, just like the USPS.

    Like the fact that they are required to deliver to any address in the country, whereas FedEx, UPS, etc, will decide to just cut rural routes if they aren’t profitable. Hard for the elderly to get mail order medicines if they can’t get mail.

    Hell you could even spend some time looking into the laws surrounding spam and use of the USPS to that end to understand why it’s that way, and that like most things in our nation it’s driven by lawmakers decisions not USPS policy someone just made up.

    Spoiler alert, you don’t have a government that gives any shits about privacy because business wants it that way. Because buying and selling your data is the backbone of commerce today. It’s why it’s so important to be considerate of who you give your data to. Just like I wouldn’t recommend testing the waters in scientology, once they have your details they won’t leave your alone.

    So if you want to bitch about the state of things put the blame where it belongs like so many of our problems, business and their owned legislators.


  • The propaganda riddled mind… “he’s only going for the criminals my brother isn’t a criminal why was he grabbed off the street like he was?!.. yes i voted for Donald Trump… who is the one doing this”…

    And still unable to make the connection. He voted for racism. Trump told him he was going to do this. What did he think “MASS DEPORTATION NOW” meant when he saw those signs at his rallies? Sounds like he thought they were “the good ones”. Clearly he’s not familiar with conservative nuance.

    He is having the day he voted for. Maybe now that he has touched the hot stove he can consider that the lies he has been hearing about other peoples of color might be more similar to his brothers situation than “they are all criminals except for my brother.” I won’t hold my breath though.

    Even his comments here show an irredeemable nature as I’m sure his idea of “criminals” follows the same conservative “unless they are in my in group any person of color is likely a criminal” bullshit that they just love to apply to the world. Like a reverse benefit of the doubt.

    He can’t wait to call ICE on others but is surprised others see him and his brother as criminals through the same criminal lens. I feel no pity for this man, and only pity for the brother if he didn’t support this shit. Otherwise he’s just enjoying the fruits of his political endeavors and I definitely prefer when those consequences also fall on those who are not victimless themselves.


  • Did you know wage theft is the single greatest body of theft in the US? Larger than all other categories of theft combined. Like they are stealing so much of workers money its bananas. Wild to think about but a good table setter for the topic from my experience imo.

    Heaven forbid you have the gall to entertain multiple offers. Just like they have entertained multiple applicants. Sometimes you get staggered offers and one ends up being a better offer later in the game. Are you required to go explain yourself to the lesser offering? Nah. If it’s earned sure. Otherwise fuck that.

    “Sorry I got something better.” Sounds easy but these guys seem like vindictive shits that I’d argue are untrustworthy narrators. Absolutely possible the hiree sent a note but backing out at the last minute that was seen as an absolute betrayal to their seemingly mid offer… This reeks of their thinking they had a big one on the hook for cheap and they are mad it got away.

    “Nothing personal it’s just business.” Is the typical unlubed response to the worker. I fail to see how these thin skinned twats deserve any better, especially with their response here. I’d argue this business deserves the treatment hiring such liabilities in their HR department are clearly bringing them by not dealing with this behavior. Job security for the lawyers I guess.

    I understand your point, we should all generally try to be good and respectful to each other. My point is with the imbalance of power in the hiring orocess, propensity for fake interviews we know businesses use, AI use in the interview process, and general lack of respect for the candidates in the pool are all reasons i think you are holding yourself to a standard they refuse. All of these are just the tip of the iceberg of shit in getting a job.

    HR and hiring reps do not generally deserve the courtesy unless it’s been earned by being exemplary in demonstrated respect and such diring the process. Because for every instance of this, they’ve likely abused many more people doing similar things to them without blinking an eye. This is just manipulation.
