So is the SDA a front owned by big businesses to gently caress over their employees or does it just look like it

Another hot, hot, HOT take at the SMHquote:The next time you are asked to volunteer or fundraise or donate you can say, "I gave at the office", because you pay taxes, or "I'll write to a politician instead". Let's fix the broken systems.

AgentF posted:Yeah, and I like to have hope, but is there the possibility that boomers will be replaced by enough younger conservatives that there is no real shift? Or that the LNP moves just enough to the centre that they make up for it - such as by adopting more liberal social policies while still gutting the economy? The hippies were a minority in that generation. It's all you ever hear about that generation back then because the rest were the same boring conservative cunts they are today.

Anidav posted:I only get a half hour lunch break where as some of my managers get up to 2 hours or more for lunch. At this point I've realized that I, as the youngest person in the office and having no pressing family concerns, am the only one held strictly to the hours I spend working. It can't be me being the most junior employee, because in the time since I've joined they've hired about a half-dozen other people. It can't be discrimination from me being trans, because this started before I came out and started presenting as such. But I'm the youngest person in the office by at least ten years, one of only two people that isn't married, and in a minority of people without kids. And I am also the only one held to half-hour lunch breaks, the only one that gets addressed for not doing unpaid overtime and just coming in at 9 and leaving at 5 (fun fact: both of these are demonstrably untrue), and the only one told to time and record their non-lunch-based breaks on a timesheet. I've also got a tiny amount of actual work space, being crammed into a sealed doorway in a corner, but that's not a discrimination problem, that's a 'boss forgot how little space we had when hiring more people' problem. None of this is related, but I'm still mad, and there aren't many places I can voice this frustration.

I think you guys woudl be proud of me, tonight a friend was complaining that the founder / boss of the hedge fund she works for in New York sent out a blistering email saying that anyone who works from home during the blizzard will have half a vacation day taken out of their leave or whatever, and i asked if she had a union and got to make the easy point that this was exactly the kind of thing that unions are for. at at a table of pretty rabid capitalists. it didnt;' go down great but i was prety pissed after a good day at the circket and it's all sweet.

CrazyTolradi posted:The edit history on his wiki page is hilarious, you can tell it's an attempt to use Wikipedia to boost his image as a 'community leader'. it gets better http://www.thecourier.com.au/story/4274902/baby-bolt-babys-early-birth-brings-fastest-man-to-ballarat/ Amaya’s father, Melbourne City soccer player Nelly Yoa, was in Melbourne with close friends Jamaican sprint-superstar Usain Bolt and Australian Olympic medalist John Steffensen when he was told his baby was coming early. The three men raced to Ballarat, arriving at Ballarat base hospital in the early hours of Saturday morning. “On Friday night we had a call, I had to rush down from Melbourne city to Ballarat and lucky we were together,” Yoa said. “Usain, I’ve known him since before he was well known, I met him back in Beijing just before he started racing and ever since we built up our relationship, through him and through John (Steffensen). “Usain is a Man United supporter, I trialed for Chelsea – he hates Chelsea and I hate Man United.” USAIN BOLT.

Are they seriously trying to say these guys just ran out to Ballarat from Melbourne? Like, I get people do that, but if your baby is being born you're not going to run the 110-120 kilometres to get there.
