i legit want to know what he was doing in gov and what he's doing now because $120k is gs-13 or 14 (depending on location) which means he was either a subject-matter expert or in middle management, which is the point where you can leave government work and make more in private industry, and yet he took a pay cut to do it????

the hiring panel probably was like "what's your interest in [company]?" and he told his story and they instantly knew they could lowball him

the standard libertarian ideological principle of “doing the opposite of what is in your best personal interest.” as demonstrated when john galt decided to make his perpetual motion machine open source and shared it with the masses.

any paid time off is time where you are getting paid for not working. zeroing it rather than capping it ensures that your employees do not get paid for not working. seems pretty simple to me that's before you get into the part where greedy people also tend to be very spiteful assholes and love making GBS threads on anyone below them, of course

I think if you're sick for idk two weeks they want to see some sort of evidence that you have something serious and I 100% guarantee HR monitor sickness stats to look for patterns so idk, maybe it ends up the same?

small business attracts so many of these little hitlers because owning a small business is a fairly easy way to get power if you don't mind a relative lack of wealth that would otherwise normally accompany that power. people whose sole desire in life is to impose their will on other human beings, above all other material and spiritual considerations

https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/my-big-coin-founder-convicted-cryptocurrency-fraud-schemequote:According to court documents and evidence presented at trial, Randall Crater, 51, of East Hampton, founded My Big Coin Pay Inc. (My Big Coin), a purported cryptocurrency and virtual payment services company headquartered in Las Vegas, Nevada, and offered virtual payment services through a fraudulent digital currency, “My Big Coins,” which he marketed to investors between 2014 and 2017 using misrepresentations about the nature and value of Coins. Crater and his associates falsely claimed that Coins was a fully functioning cryptocurrency backed by $300 million in gold, oil and other valuable assets. Crater also falsely told investors that My Big Coin had a partnership with MasterCard and that Coins could readily be exchanged for government-backed paper currency or other virtual currencies. Crater promulgated these misrepresentations through social media, the internet, email and text messages. it's always the most low-brow cons, like the guy was just going around making poo poo up and 6 million dollars worth of rubes did fuckin zero followup whatsoever. Dude's like "yeah, mastercard partnership, vault fulla gold and a balance sheet fulla commodities behind it, accepted everywhere and you can exchange it for anything" fuckin out came the money from these idiots
