    Dear God. I gag whenever I see the monstrosity that is the YouTube homepage without my logged in recommendations. I’d hate to see what’s served completely randomly. I thought daytime television was a vapid wasteland, but it’s nothing compared to unadulterated YouTube.

    Maybe vapid is the wrong word, but y’all know what I’m getting at.









  • What I’m saying is the strike will not be a boon for USPS as much as people seem to think. On the one hand they have government officials trying to get rid of it, on the other, to cut costs, they’ve offloaded a lot of their shipping to other companies like UPS, FedEx, etc. They’re going to feel the effects of the strike in a negative way. I agree with the guy quoted in the article that the other shipping companies like FedEx and DHL will be the ones getting the increased business. and they don’t have a union.



  • I feel bad for the loaders and sorters. Kinda shitty they’re forced to strike when everything was only ever about the delivery drivers.

    Edit: My friend is a loader. Not one peep from union about any of their issues. They’re all about the drivers. She’s worried about her finances during the strike. Teamsters is gigantic. It’s one big business battling another big business and only the peons are going to hurt. Oh and AC and stuff like that was the easy negotiation that everyone agreed to. The impasse is about pay and only driver pay. Big surprise.
