also it would be a step in the right direction but it also still wouldn't be enough; because sooner or later either lawns (and massive sprawling suburbs) are entirely outlawed, or they eventually become infeasible.

Trees can exist without lawns.

if it is too much work to scythe your own lawn, then you have too much lawn.

My neighbor scythes his lawn. He's also an ultra paranoid reactionary gun nut.

I myself use a manual reel mower because I'm a man of culture :smug:

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

I'm not exactly fond of completely digital ownership and distribution but this poo poo is making me look on the bright side

It's not PTO. The store will be budgeted 10 extra hours for a staff member to be rostered on to help.

No you misunderstand. The store who wins is budgeted additional staff hours, so those employees are not quite so badly overworked.

Also, they were expected to make the videos on their own time, and the sun total of the prizes was like $140 for the whole store (not counting the labor hours). It was GameStop trying to do a social media marketing campaign using basically free labor.
