Depending on how broad we are talking..

I'm Human Resources. Many would be glad we're gone, but Human Resources are there to do many tasks people take for granted such as setting up benefits (retirement, health, life, etc), to vetting and hiring, and mediating between managers and employees. Often times, these require extensive knowledge on how to navigate labyrinthian laws that sometimes change regularly and less-than-friendly benefit companies.

More specifically, I'm a workers compensation specialist within HR. My job is being a subject matter expert and a liason between the employees and an underfunded, understaffed, stretched to the limits Workers Compensation program that is struggling under the weight of a massive worker population with little in funding being provided to it. I anticipate the needs of the work comp program to try to ease the burden of the workers falling into a denial-appeal cycle.

To be fair.. society would march on without us. There'd be this horrible adjustment period for the workforce where managers who may be industry specialized (Like a manager of nurses isn't really trained to handle most HR functions) have to pick up new skills. And for a while you'll probably see a lot of people not being enrolled, disenrolled, tracked, vetted, etc as people figure it out.

Overall, you'd probably see a lot of unions/angry workers and it would probably hasten a long a massive amount of protests and strikes. Human Resources in the private sector acts like a buffer in some ways. Correcting issues individually before they become systemic.

I had a bug caused by the shipselling bug where each time I went through a load screen my gender and appearance randomized. So I can't even begin to guess how all the noodles are connected.

There's Corinthian Arms between the Lodge and Residential District train. Big yellow building.

I think it's called Corinthian..

Even if that was true, at least they make the effort.

Yesterday there was that article on here about the NLRB reviving rules in a huge win for unions by forcing recognition of unions if an employer fires unionizing employees prior to the vote by the employees.

That NLRB action wouldn't have occurred under a conservative push.

Copy/pasting my response from elsewhere here, sorry.

Sorry, I should have said recovery scam, I guess. They come up and ask if you can help them get access to their google account because they got locked out and [insert excuse why they cant get the code]. They ask you to put in your email so a recovery code for their account goes to you and would you please give them the code so they can get into their account. But its actually your account.

I'm actually not 100% sure how this works, but it's like the Steam access code scam.

Since most people use the same email for everything, they can gain access to services through password resets after they lock you out of your own account.

I love not having to drive. And taking a convenient light rail or bus to meet friends at the bar is great.

My only complaint is my current city has a really bad issue with people camping out on the train cars, trying to do Google authenticator scams. Or I've had a few high as heck jerking off in the car.

It turns out something can have multiple causes. A rising wave of bigotry and easy access to firearms can both contribute to someone being shot.
