How my 17 year old's first "job" ended by Kalli672 in antiwork

[–]Jonne 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're doing it right mate. Too many parents would tell their kids to 'figure it out themselves' or some other boomer bullshit.

Might be one of those places that run on a revolving door of kids 'in training'. You get a week or so out of them for free, then move on to the next victim.

"Prigozhin now says he has been promised by the defence ministry “all the weapons needed” to continue fighting. The “Bakhmut withdrawal” appears to be cancelled." by IdLikeToPointOut in UkrainianConflict

[–]Jonne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I expect it here. You'd expect journalists to be a bit more trained in critical thinking.

I was really annoyed to see mainstream press just believing this uncritically. The Russians spent the whole conflict lying about everything and you're going to report this as fact without any sort of caveat?

I'm sure he's got a macro to tweet that out at this stage.

I guess the upside is that they'll have to stop doing this for notoriety, because nobody bothers to find out who the shooter is any more because there's always a next shooting in the news.

My niece was fired because a grown legally gambled. by [deleted] in antiwork

[–]Jonne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If a client is big enough they'll hold literally anything over a small vendor's head to get a discount/free work/get someone fired. When I used to work at marketing agencies I saw bosses fall for it over and over again, to the point that they'd do free work just so they'd be in the good graces of $BIG_CLIENT, because they might bring in the account of their main business in the future (which they never did).

God punished him by making him live in the Netherlands.

Chlamydia is cured by taking a single pill and waiting a week before engaging in sexual activity. If everyone on Earth took the chlamydia pill and kept it in their pants for a week, would we essentially eradicate chlamydia? Why or why not? by Disastrous-Bass9672 in askscience

US Senator: "Banks exist on the basis of trust. They're really just sophisticated ponzi schemes" by KAX1107 in Bitcoin

[–]Jonne 3 points4 points  (0 children)

And if you're in this sub long enough, you'll see people shitting on senator Warren for trying to ban Bitcoin as well. There's no point in being partisan, both parties want to uphold the status quo.

Yeah, not sure why they bother with having him drive. Just use a professional driver for those scenes.

Shifting the blame in the hopes he doesn't get fragged.

Clarence Thomas — who let a GOP megadonor foot bills for him for years — said being a Supreme Court justice 'is not worth doing for what they pay' by angela131 in politics

[–]Jonne 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry, $280k is plenty, even in DC, especially if supplemented with books and speaking fees (which is something they all do). If he didn't like it, he could've retired, and it's not like the salary was a surprise before he was nominated.

The same year Clarence Thomas sent a child to a private boarding school on Harlan Crow's dime, a parent testified that the academy used children for free labor by brithus in politics

[–]Jonne 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I don't think anyone would want to subject themselves to the right wing backlash that would generate. Hopefully he's distanced himself from Thomas and is doing well somewhere on his own.

[–]Jonne 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Yeah, you think Thomas has at least the redeeming quality of taking in a nephew that's fallen on hard times, and then you see he just dumped him into a fresh abusive situation, and had someone else pay for that privilege.

Fan puts her baby on the stage during a concert to grab the singer's attention by anmolraj1911 in ImTheMainCharacter

[–]Jonne 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yeah, there's a bunch of people that failed at their jobs for it to get this far. The people checking tickets at the entrance were like, sure, bring that baby in! I guess the baby had a ticket too so it was all fine?

And then there's no security between the stage and the front row?

Former Trump lawyer: Trump is staffing his campaign with ‘chronically unemployable losers’ by MasterfulBJJ in LeopardsAteMyFace

[–]Jonne 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yep, at some point he'll put you in a position of doing a criminal act for him or be fired, and if you choose the former, it's only a matter of time before you're doing time for him. The smart ones quit/get fired.

Is anyone ever going to do anything about these scammers? by yandere_chan317 in australia

[–]Jonne 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wouldn't something like that be handled by the PBX in the hospital? Both numbers are registered to the hospital, so with authentication to the telco they could use the same auth keys or whatever token the auth scheme needs.
