I don’t know if you were addressing the specific case mentioned, but if someone has a softball game they want to go to, and they say they have a medical procedure to take care of, that could easily be grounds for termination.

Best answer I can think of is to unionize and negotiate a CA that includes shift trade rights. Short term, I don’t think there’s much you can do if the company wants to be a dick.

Fuck the haters. Buy what you like.

I’m getting ready to umpire a ballgame when I’m like 20. Come out of the room five minutes before game time, and both teams have gone sprinting to the dugouts because this massive swarm of wasps (bees? Maybe bees… it was over 20 years ago) came buzzing right over the field the game was supposed to be on. Heading southeast. Partner and I nope back into the room for a while.

Anyways. The insects continue on doing whatever wasp- (or bee-) like activities they were doing and we play the game.

Game goes well. I get changed and go home. Home is somewhere between 5-10 km southeast of the ballpark.

As I park and get out I notice that the family is freaking out. Swarm of wasps (or bees) had just buzzed their way over from the northwest and taken up residence in one of the walls of our carport.

Bidet attachments are like $50–100 on amazon, installable with very little know-how, and your family is under no obligation to use it.

Having very strange dreams. I fell asleep with the tv on the night before. Never really did that before or since. Woke up between the two impacts.

Fuck you. Imma tear down your fucking walls, Gorbachof.

People breed toxicity, especially if you disagree with them. The more people a site has, the shittier it is. People suck.

The phone goes away before the tp gets involved, and doesn’t come out again until I’ve washed my hands. We’re good on that front.

They drastically altered the shift patterns from a relatively simple 2 day, 2 night, 4 off to a pretty complicated 5 on 3 off with 7 start times that you would cycle through each week. (5 straight 2100-0700 shifts suuuucked.) They also made us bid for team assignments. The real wtf moment was when they didn’t bother posting enough vacancies for everyone to bid on because of the anticipated attrition.

Right? Absolutely no point to the pads, since you can dematerialize anywhere and rematerialize anywhere else. They might as well hide the equipment and make a nicer reception area.

I would train my staff that unless I say otherwise, when I give you an order I mean get the fuck on with it, not do everything and then sit there waiting for a second order.
