Sounds like Teamsters made UPS cave:

The details aren’t as clear but I also read the contract eliminates a classification of part-time employee UPS was using to avoid giving benefits to some workers.

Sitting in tattoo parlor in between fraternities. Wife getting her 3rd, 20 years after 2nd. It took 3 months for appointment.

She forgot her drawing at home and didn’t say anything, so she and guy younger than her 1st one are sketching it out now. Reason #200 I don’t have any. Like… really?

To the surprise of nobody, Stanford is the #2 worst offender of all colleges in letting in unqualified nepo babies.

The University of Chicago isn’t surprising me at all there. That place chewed up one of my good friends and spit her out. Where fun goes to die indeed. Pro tip don’t have latent mental health issues and go to that place lol.

Major anecdata here but I have two software developer coworkers (both from China, perhaps giving them the perspective required to be like “lol what the fuck is this insane system you dumb Americans take for granted”) who took the realtors’ exam or license or whatever to buy/sell their own homes instead of paying a small fortune for some clown to do it.

As a former Realtor, can confirm the licensing process is a joke, and most Realtors are indeed clowns.

In my state it’s a 75 hour course you can take online, then pass a not-difficult test.

If it saves you the 3% commission, and you buy 1 or 2 or more houses in your lifetime, it’s worth doing for that alone, and you come out ahead… if you have the time to do it.

There are states where you can’t sell your own house without a realtor? That’s fucked.

I don’t super know the details so some aspect of what I said may be wrong, I just recall the general idea.

“Thinking” is not something people getting mad at other countries’ flags seem to do very much.

Should have filed in Florida.

This seems a bit extra.

He was completely unhinged. Very weird behavior.

Who amongst us has not lost their shit online for a day? Let them cast the first stone

Well I have certainly never…mind.
