Happy Final Independence Day
With SCOTUS and Trump and Project 2025 aimed at basically destroying all the protections and things that make us poors unable to live, like taking aim at OSHA and I wouldn’t be surprised if minimum wage and OT protections are next, I’m greatly concerned that this July 4th is the last July 4th we in the U.S. can honestly call “Independence Day.” So how are you all marking the end of US democracy?

Amazon can afford not be subsidized
We all know it: Amazon pays many of its workers so little some of them need public welfare to get by. But what would it look like if the State didn't subsidize their labor costs? Amazon's annual net income for 2023 was 30.42 billion dollars. They had 1.5 million workers in that same year. If Bezos suddenly became mad, turned mildly socialist and decided to distribute 50% of that net income to Amazon workers, every single worker at Amazon would have made an additional U$10,000 a year (U$845 a month). Amazon would still have grown by 15.21 billion dollars.

Top 1% loopholes
So you know how when ceos get paid in stock so it’s value is not realized and they just take out massive loans at the bank and live off that against their stocks and shares.

Perfection doesn’t exist
A student who got 3.8 CGPA is unhappy because another student got 4 CGPA. The student with 4 CGPA is unhappy because he/she is not placed in a Core Company. Student placed in a Core Company is unhappy because his colleague has more salary than him/her. The person having the highest salary in a company is unhappy because he/she has no time at all to enjoy their life with friends and family. This is what happens when you get trapped in the infinite rat race. You are never happy. And you will never appreciate or be grateful for the life you have. Come out of the Rat Race. -admission warriors Steve Cutts Copied.
I interviewed for a cook job yesterday, I was upfront about my part time work only 20-25 hours due to a disability I have and that I talked about. I bring up my disability quickly in interviews because otherwise the interviewer is beating around the bush trying to figure out why I have these limitations on my schedule. I also tell them upfront what I can physically do, and what I can't, that way I don't take a job that expects more than I can provide. Basically I'm upfront during the interview with all my issues. I don't need accommodations, just a part-time schedule. At the end of my interview I'm offered the job, I sign an employment letter as required in NY as well as other forms. My first work day was today at noon but I'm to arrive a half hour earlier to complete the new employee paperwork.…
