It's not just in education.

Retail pharmacy. My company ~2 years ago decided to start offering clinical services to patients - great! In my store, they walled off part of what used to be the stockroom, expanding our waiting area and giving us a dedicated vaccination room (previously in a sectioned off part of the waiting room) and a health care room (where all the new services went).

To support these new services we got all kinds of really fancy tech - 20 inch 1440p (?) touchscreens for check-in. Very high end blood pressure machines. Two (2) computers in the healthcare room for the one (1) healthcare provider, because, you never know. These changes can be seen in a majority of this company's stores.

If you haven't guessed by now, they've decided to not go through with those clinical services. All of the tech we bought (if I had to estimate, very conservatively, $15k USD for my store) is either reboxed or installed but powered off on the sales floor, has been for ~12-18 months, and has no plans of ever being repurposed or sold. The vaccination room serves zero additional purpose to the area we had before, and the "healthcare room" is now used as the pharmacy stockroom (since, y'know, they removed part of the stockroom to build it). This is all ignoring the money spent on actually building these rooms (with lighting and climate control nicer than the rest of the store) and profits lost during construction.

But we don't have enough money for raises, or enough hours to functionally staff the pharmacy ๐Ÿ™ƒ

Yeah I don't even get what is supposed to be the taboo thing that is sending the person to hell on this one. It's literally just a benign pun

Oh no, he's snuck his way in with you guys now? Christ, we're really pulling Canada down with us, aren't we.

Big "I don't need you to make me look stupid" vibes right here

I see. It came out clean.

If I may make a suggestion for if you make a similar design in the future, there is a model I found for a dice tower that has a logo indented maybe 0.2mm on the front of case. You print this side face down on the plate, it prints the face with the logo cut out; swap the filament before the following layer, and it will print mostly smooth against the build plate with your contrasting color.

Of course, what you've done comes out with a thicker indented logo, so if that's what you're looking for this wouldn't be the same look, but just wanted to throw the idea out there in case you wanted to play around with it for the future.

Well done! Big fan of the two tone finish.

Was the top piece printed as a single part with a filament swap part way through, or is it two separate pieces stuck together?

What if I'm the person I'm upset with ๐Ÿค”

Life...

You could say it started when I was a kid.

Like most people, I was different. But not like the others.

Holy shit, he is so wise

Thanks for providing these, I'll take a look when I've got a minute.

I hope my questions don't come across as me dismissing or distrusting what you are saying, but this is the first I've heard about this information and I find it interesting.

When you say that it caused a distrust in aid workers, where did this distrust come from, and where did it end up? To rephrase, from my understanding, bin Laden wasn't exactly a good guy locally either, so if civilians found out that he was taken out with the help of undercover aid workers, would that not strengthen the trust that the aid workers were there to help? The only people that should be wary after finding this out would be his supporters, no?

Unless the fear is more of an outside force interfering with your government, good or bad, which is more understandable, especially in a time and place where information wasn't as readily available. I'm sure it's obvious, but I'm a US citizen, and though I absolutely detest the man and his following, I'd be pretty fucking concerned if China had Trump popped.

You HAVE to realize that there are people who can't even afford the groceries in the first place?! Not everyone is your mom wasting money on stuff they can't afford! Some people don't have it in the first place!

After this I'm convinced you've never seen a single actual difficult day in your life, sorry. To say that you're "traumatized" by having too much food in the fridge and spending too much money on buying stuff is fucking hilarious, though.
