A weird one

Let’s, Let’s feed, The corporate greed. Don’t you reckon, it’s the hour’s need? Come, Come, take, my heed. Let’s, Let’s feed, The corporate greed. They deserve it all, ‘cause they planted the seed, You watered it with your blood? An irrelevant deed. They sweated, while you smoked weed, How can you now deserve meat and mead? Let’s, Let’s feed, The corporate greed. You must reckon the superior breed, This is every good person’s creed. How else can you hope to be freed? In next life, please clearly read. Let’s, Let’s feed, The corporate greed. Bled are you dry? They will still milk and bleed, Or haven’t you been seeing the postings on Indeed? You are the criminal you must concede, If you kneel and slave away, we will help you succeed. Let’s, Let’s feed, The corporate greed. With inflation before you proceed, A raise is pure greed. Have shame, they…

George Michael’s “Praying for Time” should be this subreddits anthem

Let me know your suggestions for alternatives. My reasoning stems from radical Christian church elements coercing citizenry to vote republican and the anti women anti books anti equal rights agenda. “Jesus can’t come back because there’s none of his children to come back for” lyric rings in my mind. Contrasting religion to wealth hoarding is much of the rest of the lyrics. Not improving the world with the vast fortunes of a few; meanwhile a pill dulled populace only pulls their head out of their ass to check their influencers feeds and try to monetize themselves into relevance. We have been sold a faulty bill of goods. Working for corporations only will serve themselves. I did it for 20 years. Covid shut down showed me the tragic waste my professional life had been. I made millions for people that shit me out like a bad dose of vindaloo without even…

How many paid holidays does your company offer?

I know this is a minor gripe compared to the injustices a lot of people experience in their workplace, but my employer (medium size engineering firm if it matters) used to give us Christmas Eve and Christmas Day paid holiday. This year (and last) they’ve only given us 12/25. I’m miffed! Wondering if this is standard or not. Including 12/25, paid holidays for 2022 total 7. Edit 1: for comparison I mean in US Edit 2: this is just a paid holiday question, separate from PTO or sick time. I get 4 weeks of PTO (company doesn’t split PTO and sick).
