There are already more than enough houses, several times more unoccupied houses than there are homeless people in fact.

A huge chunk of them are not where people want/need to live though.

Vacant housing in Detroit doesn't help people living in SF

Not illegal, as in you've actually gone through this with a lawyer, or not illegal, as in your company does it anyway?

Because Federally, being salaried does not work like you describe: https://www.dol.gov/agencies/whd/fact-sheets/17g-overtime-salary

Working less hours in a day is not valid reason to deduct pay. Working less full days is. (From the source above)

State law does not trump federal law, unless explicitly called out. It's just that federal law is actually pretty lax regarding most things and states are more restrictive.

Or they do it anyway and hope they just won't get caught.

And even if they do get caught, the likely punishment is just paying out the wages they owe, so why not chance it? Fines don't scale based on revenue, profit, or even damages, if there even are fines.

Windows doesn't sell enterprise shit to normal people

This is why you gotta totally avoid sites like this one https://massgrave.dev/windows_ltsc_links

You cannot be salaried and deducted hours you don't work.

Either you are hourly, and paid for the hours you actually work, or you're salaried, and paid regardless of how many hours you work.

What your employer is doing is illegal, and wage theft.

but yes it addresses his point.

No, it doesn't.

His entire point is that subway trains have a lot of doors, leading to a lower seat/door ratio. Your response doesn't at all address that this ratio would change, or the actual repercussions of changing it.

In other words, you don't know what you're talking about, but you're acting like you do.

You’re very adversarial for some reason so ciao.

I am matter-of-factly telling you that you're not making a relevant point. If that's "adversarial" to you, then you need to get your detector calibrated.

That scenario is assuming it's not packed, and that there is only one person trying to do it.

Which is exactly why you didn't address anything he said, and why this still doesn't.

That doesn't address anything he said.

At least where I am, significant changes in your job are grounds for constructive dismissal.

Unless like, you want the changes.

Personally I just use plain old FM radio in my car

Great if you only want to listen to music half the time.

HDDs don’t require power to maintain their state. So that’s an advantage they’ll always have over SSDs

SSDs are not flash memory.

 

The name of the brand and car was stamped onto the side, in front of the driver's door, in that stamped metal lettering. It was some cursive font. I don't exactly remember what it said, and I already tried searching on my own, but I think it said corvette c2 or something like that. I may be misremembering entirely, but it was definitely

It had 6 rear red taillights, rectangular in shape, oriented vertically, in 2 groups of 3 on each side of the car. Like -> ||| |||

The car was red (I realize this likely doesn't help, but it's here anyway), with a spoiler. It was either a convertible, or had no roof at all.

The brand logo at the front of the car was not standing up on an ornament.

When I tried searching, I just couldn't find the taillight orientation at all, let alone the right car :D

It was fairly boxy and angular, which makes me think it's a bit older.

If there's any other details that might be helpful, ask and I might remember.
