Could this BE any more of a drag.

RIP

2 hours of overtime is $30? OP needs a union.

Can we stop doing videos as news and opinion please? They're an inefficient, annoying, and intrusive way to communicate this kind of information. If it doesn't need to be visual, it is in video format only for monetization reasons, which I'd think would be more concerning to this community.

When was the last time you accidentally told someone at work to calm their tits and twerk for you, and in what psychotic universe is that innocent

If you've firmly but politely articulated what your skill set is, and they've told you it's fine, you're literally being paid to skill up. I don't see the problem. You haven't lied about your qualifications, instead you've been told they want you on the project, even though you don't know the language yet. This is a good thing.

Bold of you to assume they went for the $24 end of that range instead of the $5 end.

Double fuck you to the crew on top of the scabbiness.

"Y'all been out of work for months, have a gig that doesn't cross a line. JUST KIDDING"

Your title is un-self critical and condescending, so your conversations probably aren’t terribly productive in either direction.

That turn of phrase has never been used by someone conversing in good faith and with an open mind.

Edit: Jack Nicholson excepted

You may want to remake this with a worse font, if there even is one. I can still read it, which was clearly not what you intended.

I think it suggests that the thing is unprompted, and nobody asked for it.

Everyone happily careening toward totally preventable catastrophe, then doing surprised pikachu face.

When Patrick Stewart did the ice bucket challenge by putting a single ice cube into a glass of whiskey, then signing a cheque for ALS research.

Nah. Let the man be. Normalize resting bitch face.

Not an appropriate reaction by the driver, but have you met children?

You accidentally posted this to c/news instead of c/wanks

Please stop. We do not care.

No, they meant "Gees"

It's a good question, since termite gees may be different from bee gees.

Yes we should be out to revoke chiropractors' degrees, but I'm not sure why that's coming up here since you asked about science specifically. Which chiropractic is not.

No one should be ok with people who run around pretending to be doctors and occasionally paralyzing babies and crippling people by trying to work magic. It's also revolting that any of it is covered by insurance and health plans, which materially takes real resources away from real medicine for people.

While they're at it they could add "potential to cause spontaneous human combustion" or "potentially damaging to time-space continuum." Potentially. I'm no porn fan, but my understanding is the evidence on the addictiveness claims is super weak.

The causal arrow between porn and the brain development thing could easily go either way. It's hard to tell.

That's your issue? Not that 14 year olds shouldn't be working in bars, where hours interfere with school and growing brains properly, and pervs get pervier as they get drunker? Not that child labour is bad?

Why are shitholes like this allowed to exist? I thought y'all had separation of church and state. Indoctrination farms are antithetical to democracy and human decency.

Edit: I see from another comment this is a private institution. Disregard.

Edit 2: apparently private indoctrination farms get federal money. Boooooo
