I mean the other names make sense with additional context

Both Tit- and Cock- as prefixes used to mean small (no laughing in the back, please)

And Hoary means grey-haired or old-looking

edit as I had to look this one up: "Booby" is an ellision of "Bobo" - as in "No seas tan bobo" (Spanish) - meaning "silly, naive, dumb..." as they tend to be quite tame birds

Usually about once in incident every 90 seconds. That's why we have to only talk about "mass" shootings, as if you count incidents with fewer than 3 victims it becomes unmanageable.

Just off the top of my head: Stockouts, exceptions, recalls, availability, change in supplier, natural disasters (or similar like the Suez canal blockage), things like cyberattacks, materials shortage or inflation might cause internal or external changes both in your direct supplier or else in the manufacturers supply chain.

Consider also some warehouses are forward stocking and you might run inventory management software to ship from warehouse A while stock is above x% and switch to warehouse B if it falls below that level (or, again, your supplier's supplier might...)

Other products might have multiple ingress points to your supply chain and you have a dedicated buyer who makes changes based on the best price (perishables especially), others might be seasonally affected - either foodstuffs or things like sunglasses, winter coats, inflatable pools, pumpkin spice, christmas decorations... that are seasonable supply

What's the difference between emocore, metal core, hard-core , speedcore and death jazz?

People like to pick their own labels.

gonna be that guy but as you said you might be moving into education soon - and I used to make the same mistake myself but "remedial" has the same root as "remedy," so a "remedial class" fixes something wrong. "Remedial exposure" doesn't really make sense here as that would be "exposure that fixes something wrong with me" which is not quite what I think you meant

We did a year of unlimited time off. I took 2x1-week and 1x2 week and a few days here and there.

At the end of the year they announced no time off except Christmas and Thanksgiving days during Nov thru Jan and you can't take more than a week off at the time.

They couple this with a company wide raise but if they don't change the policy after the moratorium ends in January I think I'd rather earn less and have more time off.

i do fairly often. just because you personally don't need to print stuff doesn't mean no one has to.

...until there are no cars without DLC

"I'll just buy a used car"

They'll just find a way to add DLC to used cars once all the new cars are fully monetized
