Anyone surprised by something Trump does is either an idiot or been living under a rock.

I have no idea what normal people do, but I avoid ads at all costs. Sometimes I pay premium, sometimes I just don’t watch.

Or you could teach him. Better for both of you.

Can you turn off the memories feature?

Before my Facebook account was hacked and I never got a new one, it would show me memories of when my mom died.

I actually hope she does so she will learn there are consequences.

I usually ask what the hell it even matters to them and I usually get the Republican talking points. They’re not going to change their minds because you shame them. Haters gonna hate. It’s a shame but humans have a very long history of hating those that are not like them. Keep trying though, you never know…

Well voting with your dollars is about all you have to work with really.

Yeah, that’s probably true of most of them. I haven’t really looked at mine.

Really? How can I MORE boycott them than I already do?

I don’t think you actually understand just how much money Apple has. They shrug off billion dollar fines like ducks shrug off water. I think the idea only works if it’s a significant portion of their revenues.

In their defense you would think just being against fascism might be enough. Turns out it isn’t.

Maybe if she becomes part of Trump’s cabinet, she can finally get control of that sweet hurricane generating tech she said exists.

Not always. I think the best people think they WON’T be let go and some others who don’t perform, figure they are on the chopping block.

In our case it didn’t matter because they wound up having four rounds of layoffs before shutting that location down entirely. So it really wound up being WHEN you were fired, not IF.

I worked with a guy who’s wife had just had a baby and the baby was sick. The guy was very good at his job but was working from home without really asking permission. We have some leeway in this matter but technically he didn’t clear it. His supervisor really had it in for him and was trying very hard to get him fired for falsifying his time card. I don’t know why he didn’t like him, but the supervisor was a real ass. It may have been racist motivation, but I’m not sure.

I should point out that I had asked this guy to do some work for me that I didn’t have the capability to do and this guy approached it in such a unique way that the customer and some universities were really interested in his work. This is a defense contractor environment where every working hour has to be accounted for. Whenever I asked the guy a question whether via email or telephone, he always responded immediately. It was all computer code so I didn’t see a problem with this.

When he came into work and told me what was going on I immediately contact the manager on his behalf.

Well bottom line is that management pretty much dropped the subject and the supervisor was walked out of the facility. Turns out he had been falsifying his own time card the whole time. How’s that for hypocrisy?

Justice served.

I worked for a company that did just that and it was the best way to do it because a lot of people left on their own.

Yup, I worked for a company that was laying off but they were still hiring because, “they had a hiring policy.” Absolutely nonsensical.

Why do you keep talking about the US in response to me. I’m not arguing that. But saying that an apple is bad doesn’t make an orange good.

That’s an analogy. Oranges are awesome.

Figures, I read here that he also said that he wanted to drag the dead bodies of Trump’s political enemies into the street and burn them.

I doubt it but I don’t really care since I already own zero Apple products.

I never said ANYTHING about the US in my post. I’m merely pointing out that Singapore may not be the best example to use as a counterpoint.
