Woke means litter boxes in schools and people that hurt my feelings very indirectly. Have I met any? Well, no... but they're a problem let me tell you.

If your coworker complains about woke things just feign ignorance and ask them to explain what woke means. Gets me out of so many rants.

So you’re honestly not afraid of Jehovah’s Witnesses selling you into sex slavery? You’re braver than I.

It's so wild to me that this person is worried about sex trafficking when there's a lot of other reasons to be worried about the kind of crazy that would ask you to bible study unprompted stalking you.

I don't want to go all reddit atheist and say Christianity is the only real evil- frankly, bad actors will abuse any structure they can for power. But like, you don't have to make it so easy for them.

organized religion that sets itself up as basically a religious corporation is pretty evil tho, ngl. Because then instead of prioritizing being a center of spiritual guidance, the focus becomes about protecting the organization's reputation (and keeping money flowing in to support it) and welp, that's ripe fertilizer for corruption. Catholicism comes to mind....

Actually, local temp companies would hire a guy to drive their van and pickup and drop-off workers over the term of a shift. He didn't work, just read the paper or a book all day. So, not so crazy?

I'd draw a line between a company hiring someone to drive a company vehicle for the benefit of workers, and Dave Rando driving my personal vehicle and squatting in it all day while I work, but maybe that's just me.

I remember years back I saw an ad for a service called Dial-A-Driver which was basically a designated driver for hire, who'd get dropped off and drive you home in your car when you're under the influence. It seemed to me like a neat idea, but on some thought I can see how logistically it'd probably end up not worth it.Tarkus posted:Actually, local temp companies would hire a guy to drive their van and pickup and drop-off workers over the term of a shift.

Things designed to appeal to drunk people while drunk and convince them, while drunk, not to drive home don't have to be sensible. Sometimes a drunk guy won't want to take a taxi and leave his car behind, because then how will he get to work in the morning? He needs his car! So instead he gets a "taxi" with 2 drivers, one of which drives his own car for him while the other follows behind. It doesn't even have to appeal to drunks, it can be advertised to the bars themselves who don't want to get into trouble by letting an obviously impaired person drive home.

But I can see it raising more problems than it solves on the business end between things like insurance, operating someone else's car sight unseen (and whatever condition and state it's in) and being at least as expensive as a taxi service while employing twice as many people at a time.

If it helps understand the logistics - this was in a very rural area where being able to find a taxi was already pretty tough - having to get a second taxi back to the bar the next morning to pick up your car would make it more expensive than having someone drive you back, and would have also made you late for work.

Letting other people drive your car is a whole industry with valet and city parking. I'm the sure the insurance is a solved problem

# ? May 5, 2024 11:48 |

it's solved by the driver's employer being bonded and insured, both of which can be expensive and neither of which I imagine Dave Rando is

It doesn't even have to appeal to drunks, it can be advertised to the bars themselves who don't want to get into trouble by letting an obviously impaired person drive home. When I spent some time in Japan, I found that this was a very common thing. You go out with friends and/or coworkers for drinks, and at the end of the night you call the service. They send out two drivers in a car, one drives you and your party home and the other follows you and picks up your driver. It wasn't expensive at all and was considered normal. Of course, Japan has (or had, this was twenty years ago) an absolute zero tolerance policy. If you were found to be driving while registering any alcohol at all in your system, you lose your license. Not getting in an accident, not being inebriated above a certain blood alcohol level, any alcohol at all. I wouldn't be surprised if it was a subsidized service, which would be smart.

If you need your work van to do house calls, but have too many DUIs to drive yourself I guess it works. I'm guessing this guy could be cheaper than a helper who does other chores instead of draining my car battery listing to tunes all day.

Chaos What you aren't realizing is that it's nothing but a prop setup for a plumber to get incited into sex with MILFs. I've seen several documentaries on this TotalLossBrain fucked around with this message at 23:02 on May 5, 2024 |

I just this moment saw the connection on the right, with the orange connector where the whole setup goes into the wall, and hopefully to some kind of outside drain. Up until then it looked like the only outlet was upwards, which was horrifying to me.
