Doctor Butts posted:Their duties are greater than 100% therefore we should not have to pay them for having greater than 100% of duties. Yea that makes sense. The infographics suck (as usual) but the >100% sum kind of makes sense. Ordering products or scheduling employees likely involves paperwork and they are making up their own definition of what managing employees means so they can categorize anything involving customer service as "leading by example" to show or constantly remind the employees how the work should be done. So a shift manager should work the register when

CommieGIR posted:Again, Chic Fil A quietly said they were withdrawing support and funding for groups like the AFA and others. While I'm sure they are still donating under the table, their latest financial transparency reports show them only funding their own Foundations and no others. We had 100+ years of "no colored allowed" signs being fine and dandy, I don't see posting a "no gays allowed" sign having any more of an impact. And as to Chik-fil-a they still saw a robust and continuing bump of support for being anti-gay even if they did stop directly funding anti-gay groups.

We're in a different sociological climate, the sort of climate that allowed Jim Crow is no longer politically acceptable, regardless of what the Tea Party and GOP say. While during the Jim Crow era you could pass racially and religiously biased legislation and expect it to stick, now the GOP passes it not hoping that it will stick, they KNOW it will not, they pass it to appear to be listening to their constituents, and can just shrug when it gets struck down. Its not the same.

They let the rage run for a bit and once the flood stops clear out all the bogus reviews. Removing them while the story is still hot just makes it last longer as people post more to get ahead of the removals. That said I imagine their rating will never recover as people who have visited and are pissed about the bigotry will update their confirmed valid reviews.

Can't quote as it's the new thread but on the rennie gibbs thing. I confess, I didn't read the link in its entirety. I've been following this case for 6 years and I was googling as a citation, not with an eye to presenting someone unfamiliar with it a complete overview. I wanted a link with the umbilical around the neck thing near the top as that was a stunning and recent revelation. I've had far to many arguments on the Internet over this case that shred my soul. Assholes and pro-lifers are quite willing to imprison a child for life for being an addict who got pregnant. The expectation that a positive pregnancy test can heal someone of addiction is absurd but common. Decades of research trying and failing to find a link between "crack babies" and miscarriage bounce right off far to many people's heads. The umbilical thing finally shuts those people up ... For the wrong reasons but OMG FINALLY! She miscarried in 2006 and was arrested and charged with "depraved heart murder" at 16. In 2014 .... 8 years later ... Those charges were dropped ( speedy trial indeed ) and the state indicated they would pursue the case by seeking an indictment for manslaughter instead. http://www.salon.com/2014/04/03/murder_charges_dismissed_against_mississippi_woman_on_trial_for_giving_birth_to_a_stillborn/ Manslaughter. When it is known that the cause of death was most likely umbilical strangulation and science has clearly established that cocaine doesn't cause stillbirths.. Per the link above the national advocates for pregnant women has records of hundreds of cases like these. There is insufficient resources to give all of them extra help. Rennie is thus lucky as she became a rallying point and was able to pay for good legal defense as well as eventually make bail. Over 70 medical organizations came to her aid filing an amicus brief with the court stating that the drug link was bullshit and providing studies showing that what they were doing causes pregnant drug users to be afraid to seek the medical help they need - which causes a lot of harm. And still she's been fighting this for a third of her life with a host of restrictions placed on her - even when out on bail you can't do things like leave the state which other people can do. And all of this with no evidence of wrongdoing. People caught with gun in hand standing over a dead body have faced less jail time and less of a legal battle than women like rennie and Bei Bei have.

Even if they back down now there is going to be billions of damages long term, bigots may be happy to shove chicken sandwiches in their faces but they don't have the monetary capital to enact the kind of destruction that you see when corporate sponsors are worried about having to put their PR people out there. Easier to relocate conferences, games, whatever rather than risk your bottom dollar.

I can't feel a shred of sympathy for Pence. He was warned about all of this beforehand by these institutions and the business community and legal experts and he purposefully chose to go ahead with it all in spite of that to appease the religious fringe. gently caress him and I hope all these organizations decide to not return to Indiana as long as he's governor.

I don't know why anyone would feel sympathy for Pence here. He signed the bill knowing full well that it would legitimize anti-gay discrimination, and then repeatedly lied about the bill when trying to defend it.

He needs a reason for the bill to exist in the first place and it cant be the same reason it exits in Indiana (even though it is) so blame the Feds and hide behind the Feds at the same time and hope no one says anything.

Actually, it does kind of make sense. The federal law can be later changed to be even more liberal-friendly; if the state has their own law, it helps them lock things into place to slow down later advancement. Possibly delay things several years when it comes to it down the road.
