Can't wait for complimentary phone chargers and power sockets at coffee shops and airports and other public places to no longer be a thing because these fucks need to steal every possible resource ever anywhere so they can make negative eight hundred seventy dollars or whatever.

you'd have to be a real sociopath to look outside the window, see a foot of water covering the street and decide "im going to order grubhub"

i already feel bad ordering delivery when its just regular rain outside...and you know those people were pissed when the bag showed up wet

How long before any delivery stops showing up in any reasonable time frame because open biddener

pretty much my favourite day working at a job is the day i quit. immediately you get all the hand in the relationship, and they start begging you, "oh we can give the same days off every week" or "we were just about to offer you a promotion" hahaha.
course the problem is once i decide something, it's basically impossible to convince me to change it, so i just get to laugh at the about-face.

Everyone who works for anything ever has to get a background check. Hell you have to get a background check to even rent an apartment. It's one of the fun invisible ways we cut off all possible opportunities from minorities.

I remember reading that if you score high enough on the social credit score you get free/discounted healthcare services so actually ours is worse.

And yeah, when I got my last apartment the lady was like "if you've ever even been arrested, even if you were found not guilty or the charges were dropped, don't even bother because we're going to reject your application."

In Singapore I like how you are legally allowed to declare a crime-free history for misdemeanors after some time when specifically asked, but not for "charged in a court of law" during the hiring process

Yup, no discrimination happening at all

Maersk posting record profits. Turns out the container shortage is amazing when you own the containers.

It owns when those are rookie numbers versus grifters

It owns even harder when the effective lowest pay rate for ship crew might not even hit $3/hr
