There's just something to be said for investing a little in your employees' happiness, or even just sanity.

People have full time jobs with little to no time off its criminal but there is always the fear of being replaced if you complain and illegal labor factors in with that

Re: July 20th 2018
And with it, over-managed. My new boss is just now taking his first real vacation because he had to build up the time in close to 2 years, and he's only gone for a week and a half. For his underlings, FUCKIN' A, this is a vacation for us too, wooooo! I'm telling that to everyone, fuck off with your request, I may be here but this is vacation for me too, I don't have to deal with his non-sense and orders, fuck off. If he was gone for 5 fuckin' weeks? Good God I might prop a keg right in my cube and plenty of others would pay for it.Tiggnutz wrote:I agreeHeadhunter wrote:Americans are pointlessly overworked.showa58taro wrote:No. Completely separate.Tiggnutz wrote:Does that count for sick time tooshowa58taro wrote:40 days per annum as standard.

Two years to save up for a week and a half? Sounds about normal for me

Re: July 20th 2018
Can't, in a stuck situation (no car, no speaky spanish, only retail part time jobs in area and if I take one I'm stuck walking home in this ghetto gang infested neighborhood at 10 O'clock at night, etc.) and my stuff is clearly not in any demand. I can't even get Tee shirt sites to want to print anything I've done.Tiggnutz wrote:I know it's the obvious thing to say but you gotta switch gigs you are to talented to suffer thisDancesWithWerewolves wrote:And that's just to cover my ass when I'm gone, I still need to somehow save money to do something when I do take a vacationTiggnutz wrote:That's fuckin bullshit man seriously almost third world shitDancesWithWerewolves wrote:And that's hoping I don't get sick or work gets too slow I have to dip into it.
Re: July 20th 2018
are there any movies that help to pick you up? are there any that help you to feel grounded, to help you to keep perspective on things? are there any that are cathartic for you?
Re: July 20th 2018
i'm just upset over stuff. wanted a way to deal with it without talking about it. i'll be okay.
