Teriyaki Hairpiece posted:I was with one job where we got a piddly cash bonus for Christmas, then the next year we got an even piddlier cash bonus, then the next year we got a Target gift card, then the next year we got nothing. What pisses me off even more is that a lot of companies have policies where you don't qualify for certain types of bonuses if your pay is below a certain level. The place I work for does that with stock and options grants. If your annual pay is under . . . I want to say $75k/year, you get none, whereas the folks who do get 'em get a minimum of around $25k worth a year.

quote:The European Commission, the executive arm of the European Union, has announced plans to force smartphone and other electronics manufacturers to fit a common USB-C charging port on their devices. The proposal is likely to have the biggest impact on Apple, which continues to use its proprietary Lightning connector rather than the USB-C connector adopted by most of its competitors. The rules are intended to cut down on electronic waste by allowing people to re-use existing chargers and cables when they buy new electronics. https://www.theverge.com/2021/9/23/22626723/eu-commission-universal-charger-usb-c-micro-lightning-connector-smartphones

Not in any real big meaningful way, but that's where the mild ick comes from. Like it's "online" but I'm not sure how it's any different from my mom refusing to watch any movie even remotely involving Kevin Spacey for the same reason, even if he's not on camera.
