There is nearly always a contract and the business will submit tax paperwork with your compensation to the IRS.

Under the table workers are illegal and on their own

I’m an American and I’ve always had a contract. Even in retail. Of course the contracts are all bullshit and just a waiver of my rights.

I didn’t read it as humour I read it as a threat or perhaps a dig on trans folks?

Regardless I didn’t need to escalate.

Yeah, or even just budget cuts. I am sure it’s cheaper to just lock it down.

I was at a subsidiary of a very large company and had work slack, email, and all my code on my phone, without even the thing that lets them remote wipe your phone.

It has to do with culture and willingness to put in the effort by the security organization

What does your contract say? With this back to work bullshit I made sure my contract explicitly said I was remote.

Doesn’t mean they won’t change their mind but maybe I’ll get severance instead of fired for cause of they have a back to the office push.

The hell does that mean? They are a shithead CEO, doesn’t need to be more than that.

I used an lcars windowing system decades ago. Can’t recall if it was a windows theme or a Linux window system.
It was neat but not really that usable at the time

Sign me up!

That is IIS, all it means is you are probably talking to a windows server. Is the traffic encrypted? What port is it going to?

But but, we’ve been told Bethesda hears us and was fixing it!

I read the first few sections and it’s not that interesting

As a fellow person with a mental illness and a coping mechanism with alcohol, this sucks.

Everyone can benefit from talking to a therapist and a psychiatrist. You don’t have to be alone.

Talk to your vet. Senior dogs may have incontinent issues but just clean it up or put pads down.
You don’t necessarily need others help.

When the time comes, just think of your pet and don’t let them suffer. I let my little boy suffer at least a day longer than I should have because I couldn’t say goodbye, but don’t let your best friend sit in pain.

Don’t feel bad if they have a medical issue that you can’t pay for. That is common and doesn’t make you a bad pet owner.

They are right, I moved here and I have means to leave so it is a fair criticism. I fled Texas and my ex wife to be by family. First time I have been close to them in 15 years. But I agree. I don’t want to be in the south. I hate the heat and the politics and the fact that Poseidon keeps trying to reclaim the city. But my sister won’t leave, so for now I am helping her out.

Now all my low income brothers and sisters here? They have no fucking choice.

I’m in Nola and I don’t vote for this cunt. Be mad at the real enemy

Why not spin the spoon in food so it costs the entire spoon and then just eat it as normal

I can’t guzzle tequila all day tho :(

Most plants and really most foods in general have some sort of effect other than calories, at least for individuals that may not have a fully complete diet.

Additionally there are more and more studies about phytochemicals, which appear to have a lot of potentially healthful properties.

Humans are hard to rest though so basically, just eat healthy. Eat a lot of plants and reduce animal products (maybe, this is a contentious recommendation) and mostly just don’t eat processed food if you can.

Even white rice and white potatoes are “healthy” in the right quantities and ratios.

Not really want you asked, but if you are curious “eating on the wild side” by Joe Robinson is a great book that talks about phytochemicals and how to pick vegetables that might be more “healthy”.

We solved this like a year ago! Though I had completely forgotten what it actually was.
