Damn she’s a always gunna be a fucking looney, and let’s not forget about the things she did before getting elected to public office, but fuck at least she can clear the very low bar of not being ok with hiding the rapists on her team.

I would hesistate to word the last sentence like that though I get where you’re coming from. It’s more like being unwilling to learn these basic skills because they believe that they’re above them somehow.

It’s the dudes who bitch and moan about how women need to do all the chores around the house when it’s clear that they couldn’t even figure out how to boil water on their own. The dipshits who don’t even know how to clean their own ass properly.

“The shitty behaviour shouldn’t change and it’s your fault for even bringing it up!”

You’re fuckin’ defective, bud.

And his peanut farm is a massive corporation that can’t stop committing labour violations and the executives keep trying to stab eachother at the watercooler in between bouts of sexually assaulting the secretary.

Exactly. 88mil people were, at best, indifferent to a Trump presidency. Considering just how bad Trump is that is inexcusable. Like, imagine looking at that fuckwad and going “meh, I don’t really care either way.”

The “leftist equivalent” is called reality, and that’s what they want to ban.

They just didn’t vote at all, which is kinda the same thing but there’s nuance to it even still.

He wants to punish TV networks for political bias. Remember, Fox News has, at least in the past, actively pushed itself as a network which furthered Conservative ideals. In fact, you won’t really see any of the “liberal media” claiming to have any stance but media that conservatives and the far right produce are almost always marketed as such. And I’m sure none of that will matter to this piece of shit.

Jesus H Christ that’s wild.

Good on you for standing your ground, though. I think if more people said “wow you should have planned that better then, huh?” we’d be in a much better place. I’ve done longer days only to still get bitched at and so I decided that I will only ever work overtime if I feel as though it was a personal failing or a promise I failed to keep that someone is relying on.

I seriously don’t get how these people get themselves so much power and money. Well, I do, and that’s that they get there on the backs of others who let them do it for one reason or another. If we just stopped taking their bullshit they’d have nothing since they have no real skills on there own. They aren’t fuckin’ archmages who’ll bend us to their will, they’re dweebs with no real skills and their power is only as strong as the people willing to enable them.

The culture, especially for younger people these days, is that management constantly “drops hints” that people who don’t let them commit labour violations will be first to get laid off. You’ve been working for at least 30 years and have a senior position but, bud, it ain’t like it was.

My dad’s a very well qualified verification engineer and even he’s finally starting to realize how toxic that environment truly is. If you don’t let people walk all over you don’t have a job. If you complain when execs set unreasonable deadlines you don’t have a job. If you go home at the end of your 40hrs you’re not a team player don’t have a job. Oh you’re complaining about your two yearly sick days and measly two weeks of vacation fine here’s a long vacation and don’t come back.

I got canned in March because “it just wasn’t working out”. I got along with people, did a good job, and was on large projects so what was the problem? I asked for more money in as polite a way as I could. I pushed back against a senior engineer who wasn’t even aware that his building code needed to be updated. I didn’t make the partners feel like special little boys. North American work culture is, for the vast majority of people, incredibly toxic. I’m glad your experience is different.
