~~I feel like a good bit of people don't understand how FMLA works~~

I actually dont know how FMLA works and have been corrected, apologies lol.

An FMLA violation would be dependent on if the FMLA claim was even opened which usually falls on an insurance agency not your company. You can't violate something that hasn't happened yet, right? A request for time off is not the same as using time available on an intermittent or continuous FMLA claim. No one has an intermittent claim for medical leave in case they are shot and hit by a truck lol

So even in a normal circumstance of not being shot say you're taking care of an individual at home. You open an FMLA claim. But you still have to call off. You try and call off but it's denied because Ricky the dick from packaging is already off. Well you're obviously not going in so you get points either through an automated process or a supervisor with no spine that won't exercise discretion in the name of floor coverage. In the meantime you call your insurance agency responsible for your company's FMLA claim handling and they process your claim. Once your claim is approved by a case manager and supporting documents then your points go away and you can choose to consume paid time off or have excused unpaid absences and any point accumulated from this leave is negated.

This tweet was captured on 1/3/25. Today is 1/4/25. Claims do not process this quickly to have the potential of being violated.

Someone shared with me having to calculate the resistance of a resistor once. I sent them the color band chart to figure it out lol

It was more of a convenience thing. If you had 1 drive you had to babysit the read portion to then install the CD-R after. If you had two it was just load both and carry on for 20 minutes and come back to it.

That was just if you were burning a copy and not ripping. But you're right it wasn't necessary. I just remember more than once wanting a second drive so I didn't have to sit and wait to put the CD-R in after.

It seems kinda grey because they're not saying he committed a crime they are saying that he was in certain camera frames and the police were looking for him. If the police announced a name then the news would be reporting fact. The camera bit could be debatable I think. If they were speaking more about the actions of the crime they'd have to alledge, which they did alledge about his "type" of bookbag.

I could be wrong I just found your comment interesting.

I've been here a year and still don't get it. Do i have to make a new account to comment or post on .today? If so, that's probably not happening. Why's it have to be so segmented so long as something isn't blocked.

there's already zero expectation of privacy at work so i don't mind using it there. have fun reading a history of allen bradley manuals from 1987 to 2024 lol

shout out to zscaler for being a heap of spying shit and constantly interrupting my network connections, and lookout for work having access to every permission imaginable.

No table saw needed. You could use a 10 dollar hand saw from horrible freight, measure the length and pull from the finish end and cut it like a normal person.

I guess it's good he didn't cut them to match so it stands out for the guy who pulls weeds in between the property lines. They'd be less likely to get stabbed by a 16 penny nail. Even getting scraped by a nail hurts like fuck. Anyone dismissing the nail portion of this job as "ok" or "have a friendly conversation" is missing as many brain cells as the person who fixed this fence.

I just recently adopted an old gateway PC with this intent in mind. I'm excited about it.

A well researched pre-owned is the way to go. I bought a 6900xt a couple years ago for a deal.

 

Being the most favorable game market does not mean "there is no competition". It's just the competition is doing it wrong so everyone flocks to what they like or have stuck with.

 

This toggle is annoying because what was once 1 press to turn on BT is now 2. It gets me every day.

 

They really didn't have to redesign a text box. Please stop reinventing the wheel. I don't need another pop up in my life.

 

After using bootp to turn off DHCP and set a static IP, 2 hours later I didn't realize that I also had to turn off DHCP in RSLinx.

Thank you fork truck driver for smashing the working one.

Kind of crazy they can cram the same technology into point I/O modules. Had to take this guy apart today to move jumpers to change it from -10vdc to 10 vdc range to 0vdc to 10vdc for a system upgrade.

Really made me think how convenient new stuff is. Those jumpers are a mouse click in studio 5000. Was a fun experience today working with some old reliable tech mixing with new stuff. This module might be as old as me.
