If death of an employee is certain, ensure employee positions their body as shown in figure 1. If positioned correctly, spasms from the deceased can be capitalized on to produce additional value for the company post mortem.
Killing a bunch of poor people in war isn’t going to save the planet. And countless animals die and have their habitats destroyed. Earth would benefit from a lot less wealthy humans.
The scenes were emblematic of the crisis gripping the small, Oregon mountain town of Grants Pass, where a fierce fight over park space has become a battleground for a much larger, national debate on homelessness that has reached the U.S. Supreme Court....
It’s getting to the point that you can’t sleep anywhere legally unless you’re paying someone for the space you’re occupying. Most of the cities near me have destroyed the woods that homeless people lived in, forcing them to move and leaving behind a weird ass looking stand of trees.
I used to work with homeless people and as much as being outside sucks, shelters can be worse. We had people in their 70s who went to shelters and slept on the floor, their heads almost touching their neighbors. They had their meds stolen and had to sleep on top of their belongings to keep them safe. A lot of people chose to sleep outside in the summer because they felt safer.
Not sure that I have ADHD, but when I remember to, I put the empty bottle on the floor outside of the shower. I still forget or can’t deal with it when I get out sometimes, but it won’t sit on the floor indefinitely like it will if left in the shower.
Yeah, I’m in my 40s and just now being tested. Based on the one test I did, it seems I probably have it. If I do it will explain a lot of my struggles, but thinking about all that lost time being untreated is gonna tear me up a bit. I always heard ADHD was one of those made up illnesses and all boys are hyper, and I believed that for a long time.
I worked at a MSP as a tier I tech that was like this. Their yearly revenue was like $360 million dollars and they held quarterly meetings telling us about the big promotions for upper levels, and how they’re doing better than ever because of remote work due to the pandemic. They paid people starting $16 an hour. I was making $18 when I left. A 1 bedroom was about $1200 a month, and that was on the lower end. I kept asking for more and telling them I could work at a gas station and make the same. They bought us pizza once a week and they’d take us to a bar a couple times a year and my bosses would get shit faced. When “important” people came they had nice food catered and made us stay in cubicle land until everyone left and we were allowed to have the scraps. They still wanted us to dress up, though. Fuck corporations. I’m trying to leave the one I’m in now.
The officer shot exactly 1 time and shot in a non-lethal manner (the hand was shot). This was not a murder attempt, this was in a way the extra mile, the kid will hopefully make a full recovery.
It’s hard to tell if the shot was intentional. The office is talking to the kid and exiting his vehicle when he shoots him. Cops aim at your center, not your hands.
The fake gun is not an orange tipped fake, it’s very similar to a real looking gun. The kid also was not with friends “playing pretend” or anything like that.
Orange tips haven’t stopped police from shooting people in the past. They’ve even claimed criminals paint orange tips on real guns. If he were playing with friends police would probably be responding to reports of an armed gang.
The officer does have a messy history, particularly when alcohol is involved and when off duty, but was entirely sober at the time of the shooting and has never been known to be drunk while on duty.
I’m not seeing anywhere that the cop had his BAC tested, or that he was tested for any substances after this shooting.
We have had issues in the past few years locally particularly with teen violence. They’ve been trying to solve it, but some kids are carrying guns and robbing people, some kids have been carrying guns to protect themselves from the other kids, and evidently some kids are carrying fake guns too.
I’m not sure what your point is. Should police treat teens in your area as threats because some are carrying real guns?
This kid will absolutely have mental distress and is probably going to be terrified of cops forever. And if the officer did do something wrong and they get to the bottom of it, then what? This cop has already proven he’s a danger and hasn’t faced any real consequences.
It would be incredibly hard to intentionally shoot someone in the hand in this type of situation. I don’t think his hand was the intended target. The cop hasn’t even fully exited his cruiser when he shoots. It says he shot him within seconds of the encounter.
The cop isn’t acting like the kid is a threat to him. He rolls up maybe 15 feet away, directly in his line of sight, talks to him through the window, and starts to exit his cruiser. He didn’t observe from a distance, or seek cover, or call for backup. He needlessly put himself in danger if he thought this kid was going to try to kill him.
Plainclothes Chicago police officers fired nearly 100 gunshots over 41 seconds during a traffic stop that left one man dead and one officer injured, according to graphic video footage a police oversight agency released Tuesday....
Yeah, we can see the lights from the video’s perspective, that doesn’t prove Dexter saw them. If we’re going off what the video shows, it doesn’t look like they pulled him over, it looks like they boxed him in with their vehicle.
Experiencing once in a lifetime events should have you riddled with guilt because you’re not putting in your 8 hours. If you want to look at a bright light, look at your fucking monitor, you have 3 Teams meetings before noon.
What if your parents are dead, or abused you, or rent and aren’t allowed to add you to the lease?
Don’t own a car? For millions that means no way to get to work, no way to get supplies, isolation.
Not everyone has a lot of choice in where they buy food, especially with no car.
It sounds like you don’t understand how big the US is and how absolutely shit public transportation is. Where I live, I can get to town in 5 minutes by car. By Bus it would take 40 minutes. There is a 5:30pm bus that would get me home but if I missed it the next bus wouldn’t come until 8pm.

I kinda doubt white people are experiencing daily racism in Coeur d’Alene.
Why do you need people to feel surprised by something that’s been happening their entire lives? I’d rather people show outrage and make racists garbage humans like the ones in this article afraid to live in society. Right now they’re fucking flourishing.
