Totally destroyed my boss!

Long story short I have a supervisor who is a registered sex offender and he put his hood and sunglasses on trying to be cool. The crew we're all joking around saying you like so and so (terminator unibomber). This is the moment that I said the most clever thing I could think of “you look your about to be caught by Chris Hanson (how too catch a predator). Everyone in the groups jaws just hit the floor nobody laughed we all just had this cringe moment and went to back to work. 10/10 he's also a fucking prick of a boss!

Thought: what if we crowdfunded money to copy the stock trades of the members of congress who beat the market by the most/most consistently and then used that money to fund working class candidates?

Let’s say you make $150 an hour and can work as much or as little as you like. Do you work 40+ hours a week, 11 months a year and go for the money, or work 20 hours a week and take several months off every year while just doing okay financially?

Why do people think working 9-5 until 65 is an acceptable standard of living?

I got hired at a new job in December, a lot of my job can be done remotely (I sell products that can be written on an appointment basis) but we still have a physical office because there is a walk in clientele. For a large portion of my time here I have worked from home, I had licensing to obtain amongst other things and then I got COVID (and very sick as well as my partner) so I had to quarantine for some time. Anyway, recently I’ve started going into work which is fine, but every time I go in my older coworkers berate me for not being there every day (not my bosses so I could care less). Shit like “oh good job 2 days in a row is quite an accomplishment.” I don’t get mad at them, I genuinely just feel bad for them, these people are…

Got a new PT job. Worked a half day so they could get me used to the job, building, and whatnot. No response to my messages for an entire week. Then I get told they don’t need me until MAY. I’m fuming.
