Idk how strict you guys are with the 40 hours a week. Does 39 count? 38? 35?
I also struggle to see why travelling out of the country is not allowed. Unless it’s some sort of really secretive and sensitive work, why can’t employees leave the country? Are we talking vacation? Time off?
Gen Z and I work in customer service. The average consumer has become such an entitled, idiotic, immature prick that you cannot reason with. Guess what age range these pricks tend to be?
If people are consistently breaking an internal rule, that means the rule should probably be looked at. I work with gen z, I manage gen z, they’re just people that society has kicked in the balls over and over and over again and their will to do anything has been eroded since they were conscious. Their primary social years cut off in the middle of a global pandemic. Maybe work with empathy and someone will want to work with you.
Hey man if you’re going around yelling at service employees I think it’s clear who’s in the wrong.
Current gen omnibooks are really good if you can ignore or cover the AI branding. They’re also a really good value especially with how often they’re on sale. Source: I bought one a year ago and it’s been very good.
Also want to point out that Anne Wojcicki is founder of 23andMe.
I drive a 2024 VW GLI 6MT, bought it as the best bang-for-buck MT available new. Fantastic car all around. What I wish I drove is my dream 2-car garage. The first would be a classic Cooper S, or any decent Miata, or any decent Boxster. MT on all of them. The second would be a Giulia Q4, or Volvo S60, or an Audi RS2. Any combination of these is dream material for me.
😭
This is so funny because I’m Indian and I’ve never come across a Hindi sub on Reddit.
Everything that you hate Preceded by Makes halfway decent music on occasion Subjective vs objective. There is no agreed-upon good music, Bad Bunny is hugely famous, obviously a large number of people don’t hate his music or new pop. Green Day makes music that a lot of oldheads can still enjoy, in part because they’ve been making music for like 30 years.
And I’m disagreeing that pedophiles can’t help their feelings. This dialogue only occurs because of the recent conflation between sexuality and pedophilia. I’ve always been of the opinion that they need to see a professional, and that needs to be a non-negotiable. I reject any conversation on their feelings being a choice because as evidenced in this thread, people conflate ideas that apply to sexuality to pedophiles. I just responded to someone who accused me of arguing for conversion therapy. It’s pedophilia, it needs to stay stigmatised because of how huge the consequences are if they act on it.
It is important to mind the language we use and how it affects things and people. Softening language around pedophilia does not serve a better society. I agree that society is harsh on pedophiles. It is rightfully so, because the consequence of acting on these thoughts is massive for the other. Harshness is necessary because these thoughts should be treated as vile, repulsive, and something to get rid of. It is tricky to approach seeking help with something perceived as repulsive, but pedophiles can take solace that counsellors are confidential, trained professionals who will refer them to someone else if they cannot handle the subject.
If there is a conscious being that cannot consent, object, or otherwise appropriately respond to one’s attraction, then that attraction should not be held onto. Ways should be explored to move past that attraction, whether they be through counselling or self reflection.
“MAP” is not a part of queer communities or cultures, stop trying to make that the case. First off we need to stop softening the language around them and call them pedophiles, because that’s what they are, whether they act upon it or not. They should seek therapy because sexual attraction to children is not an acceptable part of society.
Bizarre equivalencies here. Firstly, regardless of my personal beliefs on large age gaps, those are consenting adults. You’re equating them to children. Children are not consenting adults, it is a problem if you feel sexual attraction to them. Same thing with animals. They cannot consent. You have some really messed up ideals if you’re equating psychiatry and therapy, especially modern-day versions of them, to conversion therapy forced onto gay people. This is exactly why I called it excusatory MAP bullshit because you go right down this slippery slope. Being sexually attracted to children is not a sexuality.
Yeah, but prefaced it by saying you can’t help who or what you’re attracted to. Right out of the MAP playbook. The thoughts and attraction in itself is a problem and requires counselling because “children” are not a sexuality. You can and should help what you’re attracted to when that what is a child! If you’re having suicidal thoughts, you should see a counsellor. If you’re having thoughts about harming others, you should see a counsellor. If you’re having thoughts about diddling kids, you. should. see. a. counsellor.
“MAP” type excusatory bullshit, fuck off. Pedophilia is not a sexuality because “child” is not a sex or gender expression.
I’m a designer, I don’t know a single designer - from school or work - who doesn’t know what the terminal is. Sure I don’t really know how to use it but that’s because I grew up on Win 7 and later, where GUIs ruled. Most designers are pretty tech literate, it’s half the difference between us and fine arts folk.
Thank you for clarifying, it seemed crazy high. I know the stereotypes but still.
