I feel bad for people that aren't in a pot-legal state during this. I've definitely added some munchie weight beyond my usual but I've barely drank a drop since April. If I hop on twitter it seems like one of the common conve

Ah this was 20 years ago for me, I'm glad delivery driving has changed some for bigger/wealthier deliveries. I worked for tiny little pizza shops so they just gave us a shirt and a car topper and told us to deal with car insurance

Yeah this feels very American Beauty, rose-tinted glasses. Kevin Spacey goes to work in a drive thru stress-free because he doesn't care about the job or need the money and is sick of responsibilities. Same thing here. Except we needed

But what do you do when it starts basing everything on statistics or something less/not compassionate to life? And who determines what metrics and data it uses to make its decisions? Zorlot-19 has decided to end the lives of everyone o

I really didn't mean "I see FB I toss resume" or anything. In fact I have a huge desire to see people leave FB as well. I've worked for places I disagreed with completely but had to make a paycheck and that is soul crush

The intention of this post isn't to "hit hard" it's just to remind people who may have forgotten and are in positions of hiring power that there are a lot of people (devs/non-devs) unemployed or furloughed right now

I just threw an off the wall mention that I was out protesting and getting tear gas shot at me this weekend and you're commenting that my anger toward FB is misplaced? Huh, wonder why I'm worked up.
