I saw this earlier and while I find it to be almost defensive of these people, it makes sense imo



but also they're just horrid assholes

lmao at the idea of ordering "the usual"

Either you're well known enough there that they just make your order when they see you and you have your usual banter or you need to tell them what you want.

Chickpeas aren't as good as lentils nutrition wise but they are by far the most snackable bean and friendliest to mass consumption

Restaurant supply place was out of lentils, had to go with just 10lbs of chickpeas. :( I like lentils, cause they're pretty tasty by themselves, and quick to cook in a normal pot.

They are in just about every way the perfect food.

Chickpeas are still a good choice. Bean prep to me is like nothing to me ever since I got my instant pot

I don't know if I'll ever feel comfortable about going into a place like that again. Not just because of my health, or other people's health, but because my job and my co-workers jobs were threatened if any of us get it.

It'll take a proven vaccine, readily available testing even if folks aren't symptomatic, and probably competent contact tracing before I'll feel comfortable in spaces like that again.

One of my coworkers was suspected of having it, but came up negative. Before the test results came back though, we got emails from management that were basically "if they have it It would be bad for our PR and it would affect the future of your contracts".

I'm sure if it came to a legal issue they would deny that they were threatening all of our jobs because of a possible illness of even one of us, but threats are in the eye of the beholder and we definitely beheld a threat from the person who signs our paychecks.

I've already made copies on my home PC, but I don't think they would do any good. Even though in Japan it's illegal as it is anywhere for employers to make hiring and firing decisions based on their employee's health (or personal life or heritage or family situation or whatever) it absolutely totally completely happens all the time and no one can do anything about it.

Edit: Not a literal screen picture though, so I guess I'll do that. Thanks for the advice.

I hear a lot of people talking about themselves like they’re loving up when they are having to adapt to a new style of work in chaotic and traumatic times. You can find guides for WFH that you might find useful and several goons have posted good tips.

a lot of the standard WFH tips really fall flat for me because they haven't been updated to reflect that none of us are working from home, really. We are in lock down, during a global pandemic, trying to work.

like, I think my DILO strategies should probably be a bit different now, what with everyone being terribly loving (some situationally) depressed, but welp can't buy that training off the McKinsey shelf so here we are

idk, plane tickets are really cheap if you don't really care where you go? And spending a quarter of your salary a year on the stupidest possible thing isn't really hard if you have trapped yourself in extreme rural maine and can't move away but can't stand being there full time and the choice was between taking a bunch of insane long weekend trips on the stupidest and flimsiest premise or like... opioid abuse.

Well McKinsey has been training people how to work 18 hours a day, in an unergonomic setting, never escaping the small group of people around them, while situationally depressed, for 90 years now. It just turns out it’s their own staff and they don’t really know how to share the knowledge. It’s a weird time in consulting rn.

Yeah, everything needs a little tweaking now. Most tips for coping with depression suggest you get out and socialize and no of course don’t do that.
