Do it. but first let me go buy some puts.

why? that graffiti or scratch is just gonna rust off in a day or two

Ever noticed how lots of police departments label their cars in very low contrast lettering? That’s so they can blend into traffic without being instantly noticeable as a police car. I think it’s obvious what I’m pointing out here.

you mean that automatic siren built into the body paneling isn’t gonna help them blend in?

I’m imagining the cybercop bouncing off the car they meant to pit and flipping/rolling until the cop is skidding on nothing more than a car seat and holding a steering wheel.

Yes, it’s cartoonish.

Add some salt. Generic water softener salt will do,

Might get ran over even with a bike lane.

Workers at TJ Maxx and Marshalls are wearing police-like body cameras. Here’s how it’s going (www.cnn.com)

Retail chains like TJX, the parent company of TJ Maxx and Marshalls, are equipping some store employees with body cameras to deter shoplifting and improve safety. This is part of a growing trend in the retail industry, as stores respond to an increase in organized retail theft and violence against workers. However, some...

Tomorrow’s recipe adjusted based on yesterday’s shrink? 👨‍🍳

Nope. They have fancy overpriced mathnerds (“actuaries”) that build models to predict future shrinkage and price that into today’s prices.

The shrinkage is paid for before it ever goes out the door. Probably, before it ever came in the door in the first place.

These mathnerds that work for these corporations are some of the best in the business of risk modeling. Second only to insurance companies.

I’ve worked in contract security for too long.

Not with retailers. We charge too much for them, and they really wouldn’t like my recommendations.

And take it from a manager- Unions are vital. Corporations would ratfuck their own mother if it would increase their profits by a buck.

But their attitude is a bit more like “shrinkage is unavoidable.” So they plan to mitigate its effects before it ever happens. Unfortunately the easiest and most cost effective way to do it is to bake it in and pass that cost onto customers.

Seriously.

Like if you think mass-shoplifting hurts them- that shit’s already baked into the price of goods being sold before it ever happened.

Unionizing will hurt their profits far, far more than shoplifters ever will.

My magic 8 ball says “most likely they get arrested before that happens”.

At the end of the day, we’re just talking about some pigments and solvents smeared across some cloth.

I agree some of it can be art, but it’s still just trash. And don’t even get me started on the lumps of mud!

Actually, if we want to get pedantic, I would suggest the kits are more in line with prints rather than original paintings, but just because you see it as trash, doesn’t mean it is.

Each box is easily worth 1-2 hundred. On the low side. They’re legos. and some of those sets are the limited-time only sets

The falcon sets are all 500+, if I’m reading the thumbnail right (paywall, erg.)

If we assume 100 per, that’s still 300k in value. “It’s just plastic”… might be a legitimate reason to not buy the sets, but c’mon. You wouldn’t knock collecting art (“it’s just canvas and paint.”)

Evil and stupid are kissing cousins.

In Alabama, they’re also married.

They meant to invade Belarus. Hey, it’s really hard to read maps when the vodka’s all you got going for you.

But don’t count Hunter short, if he was running today it could be the exact same campaign as Joe and people would use all the same talking points to support Hunter.

That he’s not trump?

Naw. What’s shocking is that this is a yes/no headline that’s answered with “yes”

They’re probably not allowed to adopt. Which is good, because I wouldn’t want to put kids into that lunacy.

It passes the “does it smell bad enough to spread on my neighbors yard” test….

What? Nobody likes that guy.

Hard disagree.

Alito can call the agency responsible for protecting them (Supreme court police? Marshals?) and say you threatened him.

Who’re they really going to believe? Richness whitendude who sits on the top court or random newly weds?

That’s like swatting on steroids and they’ll just pass it off as a mere misunderstanding
