That one is entirely his fault. I never practice my talks but I at least go through the slides and make sure the figures look right before I get up and give it. For such an important thing only looking at the text was wildly irresponsible.

Lol what? Seems like this was entirely his son's fault. A reasonable person wouldn't feel the need to review a file that they worked on just a few hours prior just in case it was tampered with.

Hell even if he had caught it before giving the presentation the son deserved an rear end whooping.

Nah, the kid should be punished, just not physically.

I glossed over the kid being 13, he should know better by now. Maybe the problem was not enough spankings when he was younger.

Seriously tho I'm not a big fan of corporal punishment and hope to avoid using it on my own children, but imo a huge problem in this world is kids grow up unaccountable and don't give a gently caress anymore. Behaving appropriately out of fear of the consequences is kinda how society works. I didn't even curse in front of my parents until after 18 just in case, lol.

Maybe the fact that people only do things out of fear of the consequences is why our society is completely hosed up and rotting from the inside out though

Or maybe it's because we make excuses for everyone who screws up and don't actually help them improve.

I think the key point y'all are missing is that autism isn't real. If spergs knew they'd catch an rear end whupping every time they try some 'tismy bullshit you best believe we'd have more neurotypicals around, and fewer Sonic games.

Admittedly, this is kinda my mentality towards it.

When I was like 8, my mom's friend's son was 6 and had bad autistm. You could look him in the face and talk and he would have no idea you were talking and especially not to him. He would randomly have episodes and bite chunks of flesh out of other kids. We were all terrified of that little animal lol. So yeah I believe Autism is definitely real, but I also feel that probably way more kids are diagnosed with it (and ADD/ADHD and other behaviorial problems) than actually have it. And it's not that more beatings would fix this, just better parenting in general.

One of my buddies had his kid diagnosed with Autism when he was like 3 months. Now I don't know if he has it or not but IMO maybe treating him like a weird outcast from the start is not the way to go.

Literally half of my high school friends were diagnosed with Aspergers or ADHD when in reality they were all just lazy potheads who didn't want to own up to their own failures.


Sorry for the off topic rant, I am super bored at work.

This is the right answer:

There could be a punishment appropriate for a 13 kid. Revoke access to video games and the Internet for a reasonable amount of time.

It's up to the victim to decide whether it was sexual harassment or not. If you don't care or think it was funny then it's not harassment.

Not really dude. The sexual harassment policy at my (megacorp) job is basically a zero tolerance, everything must-be-reported immediately, even if you are the vicitm. If someone walks by and smacks your rear end, you report them right away and they are terminated. If you wait 2 weeks and report it, then you are both terminated. Them for harassment and you for failing to report harassment.

If it's never reported then there won't be an issue, but if I'm the boss you gotta can the guy otherwise you take the risk that he reports to HR that he is being harassed by his dominatrix and you get canned for not reporting when you knew.

Dangit I missed temperature chat.

Being both American and a classically trained scientist, I respect both units of measurement. For me, Celsius is superior when using in any kind of formula/math and Farenheit is superior when describing temperature as experienced by man.

For example, the perfect temperature for hominids is 69*f. In America, we say "wow it's 69* outside, loving awesome." I'm not familiar with the third world, but I assume they say something along the lines of "click-bop-durp-brexit hmmm feels nice out, it's probably a hair less than twenty and two thirds degrees."

For real though the one indisputable advantage of Fahrenheit is that you have more degrees at your disposal. Celcius has 100 units between water freezing and boiling whereas fahrenheit has 180. You are able to get more specific with Fahrenheit. Another time I feel the U.S. Standard code is superior is when describing height. Seems anytime I read something written by a European describing men's height, every single dude is like 1.7-1.9m tall or something. It's hard to tell the difference. The equivalent range in the US would be roughly 5 feet 7 inches - 6 feet 2 inches which "feels" like a bigger range.

Why would companies be afraid of calling the cops? To much paperwork?

From a couple pages back and I didn't read the subsequent posts, buuuuut:

In banking, it's extremely rare for the banks to involve the police when they've caught an employee breaking the law. Pretty much every retail bank branch you've ever seen has had an employee steal cash at one point or another. The banks usually terminate the employee but they don't press charges because the bad publicity isn't worth getting $xx,xxx back. The headlines won't say "goony mcgoon caught stealing from cash drawer at job," they will say "bank of America employee caught stealing customer deposits." Banks are petrified of bad press and they usually don't even try to get the stolen money back from the ex-employee. Source: seen it many times.

He'd also have a large legal bill.

The age of 16 may be legal in most states, but the age difference is also important. Some states have so-called Romeo and Juliet laws to protect the older participant in such cases if the age difference is only a few years. A 16-year-old with a 19-year-old may be fine under that law, but with a 30-year-old it would be illegal.

FL has that type, but GA has the "your average 16 yo girl is banging a 23 yo college drop out" kind. Also, pretty sure Hawaii has full consent at age 14, lol.

Cheating wife goon, you'll do nothing. Of course you know that which is why you sat on your phone getting updates while some guy hosed your wife instead of getting up and doing something about it. At this point just file an amicable divorce, sounds like she'll let you have the kids and house and she'll stay at the new guys place.

Any kind of pattern drinking can be considered minor alcoholism. Hell I've heard an AA "story" about a guy who bi he drank 1 day a year (4th of July??) and didn't touch booze be rest of the year and he's considered an alcoholic.


Realistically 3 beers spread throughout day is probably completely fine IMO.

Also, much respect OP. I used to drink a beer on the way to work for a while just cause why not.

If you actually take week breaks here and there, and don’t just think you can you should be fairly ok for a few years.

One of my uncles died at 52 from alcoholism related complications and he maxed out at a bottle a day. The trick is to keep eating and drinking water. I remember in his last year he didn’t bother to eat, the body couldn’t hold anything down but liquor.
