Is this a game to you? Do you see the dead-serious commitment on this man’s face?
Make no mistake, I see it as very likely that this problem doesn’t get solved without significant violence.
Great, now I’m Team Old-Testament-God
The high road is gone.
Republicans reshaped their party from the inside via the Tea Party dorks. We’re all worse off for that, but - at this point, the only path forward is for Democrats to do the same, reshape the party by going hard left, vehemently attack the corporate Democrats (almost all of them).
E: typos
Ah interesting, I think for some reason I assumed it’d be more of an administrative career path offshoot for someone working in chemistry, but architecture does make more sense. And I know how you feel, I started my career in industrial controls because the idea of working at the interface between invisible electrical black magic and moving valves, motors, and other machinery seemed real cool.
Quickly learned that in that world, creativity and innovation are treated more like liabilities than anything else lol, and rightly so. There’s a few great, proven ways to do most things, and rarely is it wise or fruitful to develop novel approaches over one of the proven solutions. I wouldn’t want to be a chemist in a lab toting multiple new designs, lol.
I found it stifling, but could’ve tolerated it a lot better if the majority were WFH like yours!
Lmao but why? Are Polish folks especially concerned about the bathroom habits of their elders?!
Edit to add: before even knowing what it meant this one was my favorite.
Seriously. There’s no reasonable argument that they should have been allowed to continue to exist after that.
I really wish we’d start prosecuting and imprisoning leadership boards for really anything the company does wrong. It’s really amazing the way we let companies just get away with every single thing, I mean how much more predictable could the slide to shittiness be?
thousand acre welfare queens
Holy shit lol
Old comment by now, but you’re a lovely engineer for that and I, for one, appreciate you lol
A lab planner! That’s one of those cool (sounding at least) jobs that are obvious when you think about it but I’ve just never thought about it.
Definitely piqued my curiosity though. How much of your work is designing new labs vs retrofitting existing ones, how much travel is involved / how much area do you cover (the question there is really about how many labs exist needing such services), and what are any weird or surprising elements of your job?!
Let’s just all start smoking with acetone as our bong water! So many problems solved :)
Right? Most corrupt fuckin cop, there strictly for his own photo op of course, escorting a political-divide-spanning legitimate American folk hero. Seems like a pretty predictable response to me.
Couldn’t agree more. There is no solution to this exploitative pattern that doesn’t involve drastically curtailing the profits made by participating in the pattern. The details matter obviously, but the situation is really that simple. There’s no solution for us that doesn’t require ending the rewards of this behavior for them.
Great insight, and really this is emblematic of the idiotic hyper-focus on growth, as much and as quickly as possible. It’s always better for society and broader stakeholders if growth happens organically. Growth should happen to satisfy growing demand, it should not be forced to go as fast as possible because there’s ridiculous money to be made by getting in early and inflating demand.
Every damn thing “investors” get a fuckin whiff of they ruin this way, housing being probably the worst (repeat!) offender. We have to figure out how to disincentivize this behavior. It guarantees toxic trash for industries in their wake and just further enriches the worst among us.
Edit: clarity
With a name like that you are destined for weapons-grade mischief.
Naked greed has a way of making even the orangest turd seem to sparkle like gold.
