I kinda feel like any place that's reasonably close to Boston has it rub off on them.

Everybody knows that a tornado does not strike the same place twice so I would just buy my home in a place that was recently ravaged by a tornado and would be safe forever.

Fun game with my weather app now is watching a two-day forecast climb 15-20F degrees over the following 48 hours

Tomorrow is up 10 degrees from the forecast yesterday so far. I'm thinking it'll hit that beautiful +20F actual again

Listen, I've been around a bit, you know, and I thought I'd seen some creepy things go on in the movie business, but I really have to say this is the most disgusting thing that's ever happened to me.

I got sent a link to this and did not think first about how it would make me feel man. My dad was in there. I knew he was lucky to have such little damage, but see it this close? Jesus. Ik what he meant by "the power went out and then the roof was gone a few seconds later." Only three injured and none dead atm. Im worried the physical healing will be easier than mental at this point. Especially since seeing this

not just gently caress off into retirement with the giant insurance checks, and instead use it to rebuild the company as it's meant to be used

After finally getting an employment contract to a company in the EU, I will never work for an American company again. If I want to quit I have to give a two week notice. In exchange, if the company wants me gone, they have to give me a two month notice. If they want to lay me off they have to prove they have a financial need to lay me off.

The feeling of never having to wonder if I will be randomly let go is an enormous amount of stress that is no longer there.

yeah employment here is a loving nightmare and it's wild that so many people who stand to benefit immensely from massive changes are dead set on keeping the status quo

i am currently on a twelve-week paternity leave and I'm immensely grateful for it because of how much better twelve weeks is than what like 90% of other people in the US get, but at the same time it's horrifyingly stupid that I'm grateful for what would in any reasonable society be considered below the bare minimum

Use the insurance money to pay their workers for at the loving least a few months while they figure out if rebuilding the facility is doable. Not loving fire them 2 days after the goddamn tornado nearly killed some of them while callously calling them "family." Even here in loving hellworld america, this indeed does happen and people are not loving fired days after an act of god destroys a building in a flood or tornado or hurricane.

According to the Lincoln Nebraska subreddit (so take with a grain of salt) the employees only get regular pay until the 24th plus any owed vacation pay, and their insurance will run to the end of the month. Apparently the company sent layoff notices and then locked all employee accounts without a thank you or apology. Given the state of business in the US I see no reason to doubt this. Too bad the tornado couldn't have just hit the boardroom when it was filled with executives, and left the rest of the plant standing
