What’s the connection between being reactionary and also anti vax? From my understanding being anti vax is a thing jihadis are also into.

"(((those people))) are corrupting our pure children with them"

Jihadis are probably anti-vax because the CIA used vaccination aid programs in Pakistan to find osama

Can they even write physical prescriptions? Because if you're on certain medications (schedule 2 controlled substances) you need to hand-deliver a physical, hand-written prescription for no more than a 30 day supply with no refills to the pharmacy, no fewer than 28 days after the last time you had the prescription filled, since they can't hold on to it for you until your fill date. To make this "easier" your doctor is allowed to write up to three prescriptions in advance, with "do not fill before xx/xx" on each one, spaced 30 days apart.

If, like me, it's medication you need continuously, guess what you get to do every single goddamn month with a window of only 2 days to do it without running out :thumbsup:

i got a similar setup at my office. I'll pretend I'm leaving for lunch, then sneak down in the basement and use my lunch hour for a nap. It's a lifesaver especially if you have an infant at home.

No one here would ever suggest that you couldn't take a poo poo at work. You are fully expected to take all your vacation days off and you can even take 2 weeks (or even 3) off in a row without anyone so much as batting an eye. Under normal circumstances you are not expected to look at your email after hours or on the weekend. I've even gotten flack from my Dutch colleagues for scheduling meetings with our counterparts in the US that fall outside of our working hours here.

Americans used to have all this I'm sure and we let it all go in times of economic duress and corporate never gives anything back. I'm not sure how I am going to adjust when I have to come back to the States and work.

Lead by example. There's lots of places where you can get away with all of what you described without getting fired, you just have to stand up for yourself.

I was at the self-checkout line at the grocery store and the woman next to me flagged down a cashier because she'd scanned one of her items and the machine listed the price as $0 and, in her words, she'd "feel pretty bad about it" if she didn't pay anything. I wanted to lean over and tell her that the grocery store is owned by Cerberus Capital Management and their bottom line wasn't going to be ruined by her getting a free bag of chips, but I didn't because I'm a coward.

Years and years ago I worked at a Walmart, doing the day shift in the grocery, walking up and down isles straightening things, helping customers, etc. They had me scheduled odd though, basically every day shift person left at 9 at the latest, however I was scheduled to 10. At 9 all the night crew would come, bringing all the pallets out, restocking, filling the isles leaving me without anything to really do, and every manager left at 9 to, so whoever was there for night crew, or if there was a night manager, never met me, or knew who I was. So at 9, I would just go into the break room, into the old smoking room off to the side (used to have a smoking section but with smoking banned it just had couches in it) and I would just lay on a couch and sleep for the last hour of every single shift.

I also during the day would duck behind all the pallets of water and stuff, inside the shelving of that isle where no one could see me and just chill out there. Sometimes steal a snack off the shelf, have a little, then pretend it was opened/damaged and leave the rest back in the loss area when I was done. The great part was basically no one ever needed to find you, and if they did its a huge store and you could conceivably be anywhere in front or in the back warehouse, so it was really easy to just disappear without anyone noticing/caring.


Man what a dumb job, I also stole other poo poo like some games and stuff in the store in ways that wouldn't be seen or noticed, away from cameras and just looking like I'm doing my job.

I miss stealing stuff from my job. My current job has nothing good to take, I haven't stolen anything good in like 5 years now. When I worked retail I got so much free stuff. Of course the pay is better outside of retail but no free stuff.

Sometimes I think back on all the stuff I ever stole from different jobs and I realize that I never felt bad about any of it, I still don't.
