Regular lurker, irregular poster. this is my last visit - posting here to say thanks for the memes.
I took some free dirt, but there was more free dirt underneath the original free dirt.
She was the fake amidala in prequel trilogy

I mean, it was entertaining for a few seconds before the real-time censorship kicked in (I'm in the UK, if that makes a difference)!

My hours haven't changed (although hours in office have slowly crept up and lunch hours crept down by a few minutes either side), so guess what, this eats directly into my personal and family time.I think a reasonable compromise would be paying half the costs for commute time - after all, they NEED you to go to work, but YOU need to go home afterwards. 4/4
For me, my journey to work used to take a half hour (driving) - with a toll road both ways (it would cost a lot more and take much longer to use trains, buses etc) - I accepted this as par for the course when I took the job, but a few years down the line, toll is up by 50%, fuel is up by 25%+, insurance and maintenance for car is up, traffic is heavier, and worst of all - they've dropped ALL speed limits on my commute from 30mph to 20mph - effectivey adding 50% to my commute time.
Afterwards, you hope you'll get a raise, or can work from home sometimes, but what usually happens is, fuel cost go up, traffic gets heavier, cost of public transport goes up and becomes less reliable, overtime creeps in (or more likely a few minutes here and there extra unpaid begins to become the norm) - or all of these. Soon, your 8 hour day when you add all this in, becomes 10 hours+ for the same wage - suddenly you're earning below minimum wage.2/4
I agree somewhat. But, when you first apply for a job, you factor in the commute i.e. How much time, money and effort to travel to work vs compensation for that days work - is it worth it? Yes/No. If you took the job, then the answer was 'Yes' - Might be a genuine yes, or it might be mitagated due to factors like 'How much do I need this job, and what pain am I willing to suffer, even temporarily, to get a foot in the door.1/4
How long until you retire? Now imagine doing the job you're in now for that length of time - that should motivate you to find a new job!
Same vibe...
You have won cosplay.

Use 2" wide tape instead of rope and have it come straight down from the ceiling - that will self stabalise after a while.
I'm freaked out that someone could trip and land on this bit:
Needs less wheelie bin and more lightning.

Guns create new economy streams for pop up panic rooms and child sized body armour. Jobs and taxes are up, said some sleazy politician probs
It's a nice design and NOT the same as the other one (no swastika for a start). We should reclaim these icons for good.
