The "EVERY JAYWALKER IS AN ESCAPED AL QAEDA NINJA!!" policies are 100% insurance driven. Getting sued by abuse victims is cheap compared to paying out for disability or death of a cop. Your life is literally worth less than a cop's sore back.

My brother and I got into a shouting match with my father over the summer arguing about BLM et al. My dad is an old white news-talk-radio junkie whose post-college years were spent struggling for work in the downturn of the Carter Administration. He's a lifelong hater of democrats because of the rough time he had before Reagan and that's a shame. Anyways. His viewpoint is essentially that the victims of police violence did something top provoke the violence and therefore deserved it. He went on to regale my brother and I about a time he was arrested for "trespassing" by visiting some friends who lived in an apartment complex that he used to work at until the owner fired him and told him he'd call the cops if he ever returned. The cop arrested my dad who was a long-haired hippy-looking dude who grew up surfing in Florida and treated my dad like the Arlo-guthrie listening likely anti-war hippie that he appeared to be. He threatened my dad with physical beatings if he didn't just sit down and shut up while he filled out his paperwork with the landlord. My dad was basically terrorized into silence and respect for the power of this cop who told him he'd drive him into the woods and beat him unconscious. So my dad didn't say a loving thing and told us this story about how see... you just do what they say and you come through it alright. My loving god. He's never going to get it.

AceOfFlames posted:I mean, what would be the end game of telecommuting? People telecommuting to school then work and then never leaving their homes? If they live in places far away from cities, they will be isolated for life. And with rising house prices no one will be able to move and go back to multiple generation households. It will be a nightmare hybrid of Surrogates and Dogtooth. Just this week I learned that "the huddling place" isn't actually a stand alone short story but is actually just chapter 2 of a novel about the future history of telepathic dogs.

People without good mass transit don't understand how good it is to bracket work hours with two periods of absolutely nothing that needs doing and no responsibilities beyond periodically checking if it's your stop. Also the end result of telecommuting is going to be that Asimov novel where each person lives alone in a multi-square-mile estate, served by an army of robots and having a mental breakdown if they find themselves in the same room as someone else.

Oh absolutely, this person went on for like 5 minutes about the various accolades and "thank you for your service" bullshit from white people as if she single-handedly liberated a city from MS13. Also, that I live in a "bad neighborhood" because a lot of the people she arrests are from where I live. I live in a neighborhood with a lot of Latino, Muslim, and African immigrants and I walk everywhere and never felt unsafe. Lol, the other day I helped an older Haitian woman chase down the citizenship application she got from the library as it was blowing down the street and she told me she told me that God would bless me. That is the kind of people I live with. So I was also quick to correct her that I do not live in an unsafe neighborhood, our crime rate is actually really low and decreasing every year. It was like she got slapped with a trout. In the midterms, an elderly Somali woman worked with a bunch of volunteers I helped out with to bring a lot of people to the polls. She translated for us and we helped them with their voting registrations, transportation, and polling information. She slapped the hood of her beat up minivan like that stupid care salesman meme and proclaimed she was going to fit so many votes in there. My neighborhood is loving awesome and I hate that I am moving next year to live closer to my work.

Most places need you to come in every day for a while before you start telecommuting. But you can work in pajamas, so upsides and dowsides.

Meatball posted:It also ties you to your job. If you telecommute and move to a place with cheap cost of living, where you live wont have many job prospects, unless you can find a job that let's you do it on day 1. Most places need you to come in every day for a while before you start telecommuting. It’s really something you have to adapt to. I previously spent a good 2 or 3 hours a day at my office job dicking around on the Internet. Still do at my telecommute job, but because I’m in my bathrobe with my dog next to me on the couch, there’s a sense of “I cannot believe this is legal”. I get to sleep late because I don’t have to get dressed or anything, but also I have to schedule showers now because the telecommuting aspect has also meant I average 5 hours of meetings a day and sometimes in nonstop blocks. But I can also just take the dog on a half hour walk whenever I have that gap, and I don’t have to sing happy birthday in the common area. But also I’m starved for human contact, so even going to the grocery store after work is a treat. But also I go down to the local a few nights a week after work to force myself out among humans, and that’s had a nice salutary effect on my mood as well. It’s a mixed bag. I can’t complain too much, but I do find myself having to actively do some of the things that office jobs come with naturally.

I got the sense there was a history behind that statement.
