Framing a rescinded invitation as discrimination is not a stretch at all, it very literally is discrimination. If you replace this definitely not discriminatory action against a Russian with a Black Man would you still support it?

Unless it turns out that the water treatment plant isn't in fact doing anything but is still a cost, in which case yes, you might as well drink the raw lake water. Perhaps all the people in this town would be better off if they would e

Yes exactly this, it makes me feel dizzy, kind of "floaty" and generally just bad, anything with artificial sweetner can ruin my entire day. It's amazing how many things have these artificial sweetners in them, I have to read

Wonderful, so I take it you are advocating that anybody who drives a motorcycle with no tail light and drum brakes should be left to die outside the hospital if something happens? Would that be an accurate assessment of your position?

In that instance though its not that you need to do more than the job, its that the job also involves doing multiple things, some of them you might have never done before, thats totally fine. If doing the job isn't enough, change the j

> They might be able to do the job for which they are hired. But that is not good enough. Especially at a startup where you are able to hire a lot fewer people than you would like. Yes, yes it is enough to be able to do the job for wh
