They would have you do cleaning and stuff, and just do less cleaning on the busy days. Or they'd have you watch the mandatory annual safety videos.

It was their problem, not your problem.

I'm still bored at work occasionally to this day, but I'd rather that than have today's poor boundaries on my "days off". Your whole day can be shot de facto on call with no compensation.

So anyhow my wife, kids, and me all have different last names. Complicated hippie stuff yada yada.

At first, my dad was all disappointed the family name ends with me.

Fast forward fifteen years. My dad discovers that our family changed their names when they moved to the "old" (middle?) country 100+ years ago, to assimilate there. They just didn't anglicize the name when we moved here.

TL;DR: all names are just made up

In the 1990s and 2000s, employers would just have more people show up than needed most days. We used to have "easy" days sometimes when there was more employees than work.

The whole calling people on their day off thing used to be rare, and it's absurd that saying no is now counted against you. What we consider fully staffed today has shifted considerably.

I thought Kurzweil predicted 2045?

One of my coworkers is like this, and it's a small company. I keep having to remind myself that he's a wage slave too.

If Trump supporters all had good aim, he'd be dead.

I see other people talk to their bosses like that sometimes. I'm always shocked at how blunt they are in a clearly hostile business arrangement, but these guys do exist.

Makes me thank my lucky stars my boss is just a normal person.

I mean don't get me wrong you gotta assert your boundaries, but I'd just say "no" and not offer a detailed reason. You can hear how I really feel while I'm on the clock. 😜

Congress is one of the worst possible examples. They could easily delegate their vote on days off if that were allowed.

Digital artists and illustrators are abandoning Elon Musk’s blogging platform X (formerly Twitter) over the introduction of a new controversial image-editing feature powered by artificial intelligence (AI). According to reports, the creators claimed that the new tool could be used to modify others’ works without their consent.

One such popular creator championing the boycott is Mu-jik Park, the renowned South Korean artist known by the pen name Boichi. Boichi is the creator of the hit manga series Dr Stone and Sun-Ken Rock.

My understanding of federation is that it's like email. If one server is misbehaving, then they get defederated.

So how come email spam still exists - why don't spammer domains get defederated? It seems like we've got the worst of both worlds, where it's hard to get your emails relayed when you run a small email server, and easy to get them relayed if you're a spammer.

Is there anything about Lemmy's architecture that will prevent this problem?
