I thought my job was bad when my expense reports got rejected repeatedly for fraction of a cent rounding errors. Now I just make sure the errors are in favor of my employer and magically they get approved

hobbesmaster posted:How does your expense report have an error thats a fraction of a cent? So the tax rates can be such and such percentage that causes the price of two nights in a hotel (rounded to the whole cent) to be different than 2 x [one night in hotel] at the same rate. We have to break out taxes and room rates separately. It's dumb. The error is plus or minus one cent, but it's the fraction of a penny from the tax rate that causes it.

psydude posted:The really hosed up part that isn't getting as much coverage as Brennan is that they're going to revoke the clearance of a career DoJ employee because of a right wing conspiracy theory. I had a family member tell me yesterday that Brennan losing clearance was justified because he is a secret Muslim ("not that there's anything wrong with Islam!") and he is part of the deep state attempt to discredit and unseat "the duly elected president, which is treason". Also that he was using his government clearance "for personal gain"  .I chose to drink heavily rather than try to unpack that at family dinner.

I don't have my copy of "I Am America and So Can You" handy, but there's a photo of Lyndon Johnson making his dog dance for photographers captioned something like "In the past, the press was easier to entertain" E: if you aren't super into peaty scotch and you get gifted a bottle, use a bit of it to soak a mason jar of freshly pitted cherries for a week or two. Congrats, you now have the best Manhattan garnish there is. I'm gonna pick up a bottle of Bunnahabhain for the end of 45's term in office. People get pissy if you compare scotch to whisky but gently caress it, drink what you like. egyptian rat race fucked around with this message at 13:39 on Aug 22, 2018 |

I remember the days where you could fly to Mexico without any documents, appear at the border, go "lol whoopsie", swear to the customs people you were a citizen and walk on in. My mom straight up forgot her documents on vacation and they let her in. She's white, though

Defenestrategy posted:What theoretically is supposed to happen thes e days? Say you go to Canada and come back and find you don't have any form of pass port or ID on you at the border. Do you just go lol, welp and wait at the check point until a dude can run your SSN or something? I think you have to call your consulate at that point and try to get replacement documents... My story is from '99 or so, right before things got exciting. That's back when they would feed you dinner in coach, too. My future kids are never gonna realize that travel sucked a lot less back in the day.

Good article from the NY Times today... https://www.nytimes.com/2018/08/31/us/politics/beto-orourke-dreams-of-one-texas-ted-cruz-sees-another-clearly.html Favorite quote: "Mr. Cruz, whose given name is Rafael, is a Cuban immigrant’s son who speaks middling Spanish and wants to build the wall. His opponent, whose given name is Robert, is a white man from a border city who speaks perfect Spanish with an accent impressive for an O’Rourke (and not bad for a Beto) and calls the family separation policy the moral stain of our times." The author does a good job of pointing out Texan hypocrisy as a whole, too. The state that waves the biggest American flags cosntantly talks of secession, etc.

psydude posted:I have to deal with a sales guy from Texas. He refuses to wear a seatbelt, even when he isn't driving; he brings his gun with him everywhere, at one point forcing our Canadian co-worker to drive around with it in the glove box of his rental car because he had to fly somewhere on short notice; and he refuses to work with anyone that we hire who is Mexican-American, despite one of his biggest customers having a strong presence in northern Mexico and South Texas. Small-town Texas is going to have a hard time when things turn purple/blue. Hell, barely more than a decade ago my wife remembers majority-minority high school teams having police escorts when playing away games in East Texas. Klan rallies are a recent memory. Compared to my childhood in cow country, CA it is nuts.
