Contest the performance review in writing. You can do it nicely, and factually. Put out a timeline with as factual of a tone that you can. But I would put it on the record and print the email and take it home with you and put in a safe place. Something like this can be used to justify a firing if not corrected.
And yes I know what at will employment is, but putting on record also helps avoid this being used as a pretext for some other illegal firing (e.g., age, gender, race, union activity).
Or someone talking shit about you to other companies - you can sue over that, but again, it helps if you have a record that supports it.
Overall, though: yeah, fuck that company. Go somewhere that you're valued and start finding a good reference at the place you're at. Coworkers that you worked on projects with can work if you don't have someone you reported to that's honest.
Yeah. Angry emails aren't great. But good to get on record before too long.
Write it all out now, and have a friend do a tone edit.
Or post it here and the Internet can do it for you. And hope your employer doesn't do a search on text.
Is it because it's computer generated animation? That was the vibe I got, similar to a lot of the newer anime. It looks ok but something about it throws me off.
Outside of my Switch and Kindle my phone is all I have. It’s a $1300 super device and I find it does more than enough. A magic reactangle with the answers to all life’s problems. The ultimate minimalist device....
My PC has been with me for like 10 years and it's working great. If anything goes wrong with it, likelihood is that I can just replace one component and get working again soon.
All it takes is one slappy toddler or someone knocking into you at the wrong moment, and that 1300 dollar device is not worth the cost of repair and destined for a landfill.
I'm not sure your region, but discount grocery stores are a thing, and offer up very good deals. E.g., 25 cent cereal boxes.
Target and Trader Joe's have staples like plain pasta sauce, beans, rice for very cheap - about a dollar per jar/can/pound.
There's also food banks as a source of some basics.
When Republicans send its people, they're not sending their best. They're not sending you. They're not sending you. They're sending people that have lots of problems, and they're bringing those problems with us. They're bringing drugs. They're bringing crime. They're rapists. And some, I assume, are good people.
State Farm will discontinue coverage for 72,000 houses and apartments in California starting this summer, the insurance giant said this week, nine months after announcing it would not issue new home policies in the state...
It's not about that. That's the insurance industry's cover story.
The real story is insurance companies giving a hissy fit about being subject to regulation by the state's insurance commissioner.
If the insurance industry was only dropping coverage in the middle of forests, or on beachfront or riverfront property, that would make sense. But it's not. They're dropping coverage on infill development in the middle of cities.
I know about the recent stuff using DNA as a storage medium. I am interested in writing a story where humans have mastered everything Evolution has to offer; a time when technology is completely integrated into a vivarium/Bioregenerative Life Support System like ecosystem on multiple levels....
Mine works too. You just need a few data centers of rapidly bred and killed animals (or people) that live and reproduce or die based on how well and quickly they respond to the desired stimulus.
Think millions of rats looking at tiny pieces of a larger problem.
