User ID: 72194485 ![]() 06/11/2022 08:31 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Workers??? Quoting: Moniker Shmoniker There is a place that has monthly new employee orientation. They haven't had one in 2 months due to lack of applicants. This started even prior to the pandemic, but the pandemic amplified it 1,000 times. At an old job of mine, I would hire a dozen people and tell them to be at new employee orientation on Monday morning. Six might show up. Of that six, one or two *might* make it past their 90-day probationary period. After the pandemic started, I would train eight new employees at orientation, and half of them wouldn't even come back from lunch. Not going to get into why I think this was happening; just stating personal experience. I’d be interested in knowing the “why” you thought. But understand if you don’t want to get into it. I find it interesting that folks would go through even that much bless they needed it for unemployment claims. The pay rate for the hard physical labor in extremely hot temperatures was pathetic. I know I would have rather taken a $10/hour job at a fast food joint working in air conditioning than the $12/hour those idiots were paying to work outside in the blazing sun. And they kept asking me why the only workers we could get were ex-cons. The owner of the company was a hard-core Republican and Trump supporter, which is why I didn't want to get into the "why." I was there the day after the election in 2008 when he said his employees "were too happy" and he was "going to lay off any employee with an Obama sticker on their car." That experience left a nasty taste in my mouth because it was just shy of voter intimidation as far as I was concerned. People should be able to vote for whomever they wish without having to worry about losing their jobs over it. This is the same Covid-is-a-hoax fucknugget who fired me in mid-2020 because I wouldn't shut up about them not allowing me to enact or enforce any real Covid safety policies. I am so glad I am out of that hellhole now. Yeah. Sounds like a real asshole. Trump or not - an asshole is an asshole. Both sides of the fence. Thanks. |

User ID: 82247046 ![]() 06/12/2022 06:33 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Y'all want to hear something crazy? The grocery shelves are stocked better down here than they were in the states. The biggest thing I noticed is the BABY FORMULA is FULLY stocked. Quoting: Tarnished Halo FDA regulations make it near impossible for foreign dairy products to be sold in the US. There was never a shortage, it would have taken 1/20 military cargo flights between the US and the EU to carry the supply needed, but that formula would be unfit for the US market but their regulations because they need subsidize domestic production. These regulations are not per-se bad, there are good reasons to be as independent as possible but it does show when you monopolize a market like baby formula to one manufacturer for 60% of demand and their supply drops by 20% because they were to greedy to clean machine's.... There is no baby formula shortage just bad management, which is common in monopolies where people fail upwards. Vaid Status: It's a small world after all! |

"such as a 1 world govern will bring peace" Look back at most of the wars/uprisings not started by US over the past few decades. None of those were started for a desire to become part of some larger group. The war in Ukr is a war of conquest and it is rare in that sense, All the world is rejecting and fighting russia aggregating more land through force. What makes you think that a war to unify the entire world under a 'NWO' would be plausible/possible? Subjecting people takes force. There's not enough force subject earth.

User ID: 79324350 ![]() 06/12/2022 08:01 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | So, my idiot Uncle came up from Massachusetts to visit my parents last week. He's the only family they or I have seen since COVID started, hasn't been up here since last fall. I was over their house most of last weekend doing yardwork for them, and we did a bunch of grilling and had some beers. My Uncle seemed kind of stuffed up and was coughing, he said it was just allergies. He had been staying at my parent's place for 2 days already before I came over, so at that point they were already fucked. My Mom started feeling off on Sunday and had a fever, my father didn't show symptoms until a couple of days later. They finally went out and got tests on Friday and were both positive. After hearing my parents got sick, my Uncle took a test and was also positive. I was around all of them more than enough to get infected, but so far nothing a full 7 days after the last time I saw any of them. My mother was only sick from Sunday to Wednesday, the old man was a couple days behind but it seems at this point he's past the worst of it and is on the downside. He did have some trouble breathing when trying to sleep which freaked him out, but a good cough medicine helped get the shit out of his lungs and he's OK with that now for the most part. Neither lost taste or smell, but both had a bit of brain fog. It's sort of a relief. They were going to get it sooner or later, and at least it wasn't from me. My father checks off just about every box for co-morbidities with COVID, and it looks like he's gonna get away with out even having to seek medical attention. I was around my Mom pretty much all day last Sunday when she had a fever, she didn't bother to tell my until about 4pm. I'm waiting until all of them are 100% over it and I know they will survive until a give her shit for that. There's no way I didn't receive enough exposure to be infected, so either I had already had an Omicron asymptomatic infection or I just did this week. Either way, my immune system does not seem to have been "destroyed" by the vaccine. Last Edited by R. Wordsworth on 06/12/2022 08:07 PM |
