Most countries have been open for at least a year now. All unemployment benefits related to the pandemic ended in Sept. I can order a fucking dinglehopper on wish and get it at the same speed as pre-COVID. Where are these “supply chain issues”? Or do you think this is a capitalist playground now where if companies make less product, hire fewer workers, they can charge whatever the fuck they damn well please and turn every product into a rat race? Thoughts?
A hostile environment is pretty clear cut and dry when explicit sexual content is permitted to repeatedly appear and thrive. People should not have to be subjected to discussions between the anchors of their masturbation habits, jokes about prophylactics, discussions of the size of the size of Donald Trump's penis, and full on explicitly detailed descriptions of rape.

It's not necessarily what I was expecting, but the pay is nice, I enjoy working from home, and it's my first position out of grad school. It is a grant funded position, so it currently ends end of July, there's always possibility of extension, but I don't know when that discussion occurs. On my team there are 4 positions, and the pay increases based on degrees and experience (according to the job descriptions). except for one. data analyst (66-72k, 1 year exp, bachelors) epidemiologist (70-80k, 2 years exp, masters) senior epidemiologist (82-94k, 5 years exp, PhD or MD) junior epidemiologist (77-99k, no exp posted, no degree posted) Now the junior position doesn't have exp or degree in the posting (which no longer exists); however, the people on my team…
