No, but it was the biggest company in the industry in the UK. I can only guess when you become a manager they take you for special reprogramming.

Yeah, had a coworker die and they didn't allow anyone to attend the funeral. Like, you'd get written up if you skipped the day. No one gave a fuck, so that's good. Too many people are garbage.

It's everywhere. And especially on the dumbest shit like Imgur or some subreddits. Just literally "Fuck China" trains. And clearly, they are the free, independent, smart, non-sheep people eh

I had a few, too. They're suspended now! I think they started looking at action history - little to no posts/likes/friend requests/logins will probably suspend your account and ask for an ID. Now, Facebook can go fuck it

What? They're crazy competitive these days. Every popular ad space online has been bought by the highest bidder. AdWords, Facebook, Imgur, Reddit, companies are dumping cash like mad. The market grew by billions over the past decade.

I'll tell you what, my first actual jobby job was managing a number of printers, plotters, copiers and PCs at 2 locations. At 16. I was paid twice the average wage. It taught me making money is easy. 2 years later I was earning 10x the

On that note, these days even a few lead acid batteries and a few solar panels at home are enough for a lot of things. LED lights, battery power tools, laptops, these are very efficient compared to just 20 years ago. Don't really need

How long does it take you? I do 14km in ~40 minutes on a normal bike, was thinking an ebike would be way better. I was hoping to make my own, but maybe I'll cave in and just use a Swapfiets electric...

My favorites are TP-Link's WDR3600/4300, AC1200 and AC1750. Yeah, not switches per se, but $20-40, Gigabit Ethernet, dual band Wifi, very stable and fast with OpenWRT, can do anything. You can daisy chain a few of them if you need

> Polish drivers paid Polish wages were driving in the UK There is a law specifically against that. Basically, if you drive mainly in Belgium, for example, you get paid local wage regardless of where your employer is based.

I actually need drugs. But yeah, I'm not expecting any help, I'll just always mention how fucked up I am and shit on garbage healthcare anytime I can. If it makes someone uncomfortable, even better. Mental healthcare is important.
