Work From Home – Save Ukraine – Saving Gas to Save Lives

Employers should let their employees work from home to save gas. Maybe the US would have more reserves that could then be used to help Europe avoid buying Russian gas. After Covid, everyone has figured out how to make WFH work, and it should be relatively easy to continue. Not to mention, employees very much want to continue working from home.

Why isn’t there an initial retail period for housing? There is in finance

Hear me out. Whenever there is issuance of new debt (bonds, fixed income), there is an initial “retail period” that gives individual investors the opportunity buy into the issues before the “institutional period” where the institutions (blackrock, vanguard) come and sweep up everything. This allows individual investors with less buying power to actually get in. Why shouldn’t the same go for housing? Yeah this will be a short term hit for current homeowners but it will help the housing crisis. We’re getting locked out of the housing market by our lack of cash buying power. We literally can’t compete with blackrock. Think about it. If every single family home going on the market had an initial 30 day period where it could only be bought by an individual, not a corporation or investor, then after those 30 days it’s released to be picked up by corps/investors….It would straighten out the…

Remote jobs that don’t feel like working?

I am looking for a career change and looking to get into remote jobs. I hear from various redditors that a lot of working from home does not actually feel like working at all. I see comments like: ” I only do 2 hours of actual work and get paid 8 hours a day.” To me this sounds like a dream job. The problem is that I've only worked blue collar jobs. I currently work as a security guard. Before that I worked at a computer repair shop for a year as a unpaid intern. I did go to community college for 3 to 5 years but I dropped out after low grades. I am also a fast typer being able to type up to 100 wpm. I want to know where are some entry level positions that are like this?

Should I lie on my resume to get a good paying job?

I can’t afford college and I don’t have any experience outside of being a fucking janitor. I want a nice paying job where I’m home on the weekends and I can have vacation time.

Most underhanded employers?

Hai Guyz, I was wondering what company would be the most underhanded. My vote is for H&R Block. You have to pay for your own training. Even then you aren't guaranteed a job. You also can't use said training to compete with H&R in any way. Also it's a seasonal job. The IRS has the tools to file your 1040 for you, but the lobbyists for H&R Block say no.

who takes responsibility?

I feel like all my life, I see corporate make mind boggling bad decisions, yet I don't ever see anything come from it. For instance, multi billionaire company pushed out a location manager. They were sued and had to settle for quite a lot of money. Almost 2 years later, the location which had 5 years worth of contractual work at the time of firing, is struggling for business. Now they are having to close down the location. So, why is it the people who made those decisions are still employed with their titles entact? But some hourly employee shows up 5 minutes late a few times in a week and they are shit canned and detrimental to the business for the inability to be on time.
