If sessions is out, the whole house of cards probably collapses, because he doesn't have someone at the DOJ pulling for him to stymie investigations.

Wow. Now I suddenly understand your "why do people stop working" post. I get the context of these words now.

let me ask you...on your current job, do you ever have to:

-stop people from letting their child come behind the register and take a literal piss in the trash can under the counter because they don't want to go find the bathroom and their son is "special-needs so he should be allowed to?"

-break the rules about not leaving the store in order to go have a good cry in your car on your short lunch break because an angry customer called you "a loving ugly cuntfaced bitch" because you couldn't do a return for him without a receipt on a 20$ item, and your manager came out and instead of defending you, threatened to have you disciplined or fired for arguing with the customer?

-sat in a bathtub for an hour every night after work to get the shooting pains in your legs to stop because your boss wants you to wear at least an inch high heel on a concrete floor all day because it's "just more professional"?

I had a guy try to cut me with a boxcutter that he was using to try to steal graphics cards while working at Best Buy. Good times.

The president�s advisers acknowledge privately that Trump�s unpredictable behavior could complicate the trip in ways big and small, from potentially escalating the crisis on the Korean Peninsula to flouting complicated rules of procedure. �You never know what he�ll say,� an administration official said, adding that the grueling schedule could heighten the risk of mistakes. An outside adviser to the administration concurred: �The potential for error is huge.�

hey i know addamamere's posts are incomprehensible but dude's got depression blinders on which makes it hard to empathize with those walking in previously-unconsidered shoes (to say the least) and he's acknowledged the hell out of it in posts that you might've skipped

he has been checking his job privilege and all he's been seemingly trying (and not doing a v good job at, judging by engagement!) to say is "i like what i do and it keeps me out of the gooncave of few boxer shorts; i can't conceive of wanting to retire as things are goin for me rn"

this is being twisted to "lol you can't conceive of anyone wanting to retire?"

he, himself, isn't so hot on the idea of wanting to retire

read some posts of his over the past few pages and you might see what i mean

i didn't see his other acknowledging posts so I will check my page-skip blinders and go back and read them, thanks goon friend

Me, to HR lady at new job: "You mean I can just like, not show up on these days? And you still pay me like I was here? I can call in sick and you won't cut my hours in retribution?"

I once did the entire inventory of a 2.5 million/year restaurant, paper and food combined, when I had walking pneumonia.

Every single restaurant has at least 1 sick person working at all times

Yeah I hate my job and consider it a waste of time, but it pays a fair wage and it's a cushy office job with fantastic health benefits so on balance I have it extremely good.

I just have that office ennui where I know what I spend 8-10 hours a day doing is ultimately extremely meaningless and nobody actually cares about anything I produce. The company I work for makes things that people use to help other people (medical records software) but my own role in the whole process is so amazingly removed from anything good actually happening that I can't help but feel thoroughly worthless.

But again if I take even the tiniest step back I know that I have nothing to complain about in any sort of real way and my real problem is probably my student loans more than anything

I had a woman put a blender inside a comforter bag set at Sears and try to steal it by buying the bag set and when I found it and called the manager about this silly stocking mistake we made, putting blenders in blankets by accident (we weren't allowed to call ppl on stealing stuff out loud), she told my manager *I* was trying to steal it. Some. How.

Honestly, if you can sit, have steady hours/pay, autonomy, and don't have customers/at least tolerable co-workers and supervisors, that's better than almost everyone.

retail companies do tons of poo poo that's illegal to their workers, they know most of their workers are too desperate for the paycheck to quit and too poor to hire a lawyer (and at the end of the day, you've sued your company for a payout thats usually like a quarter of your annual wages and companies can and will refuse to hire someone who sued their company)

Here is a story from my time at Best Buy:

One time I spent a half hour having my time wasted by some old guy who kept wanting me to track down different CDs we didn't actually have in stock, and always turned down my offers to put in an order for him or find it at a nearby Best Buy.

Once he left my manager told me the same guy had been kicked out of other Best Buys in the area for trying to lure children into the bathroom and apparently they couldn't kick him out preemptively at this one because what if he wants to buy something this time???
