Unfortunately, when a manager is pressuring you to do so, not all of us have the fortitude to straight up say no. EDIT: to be clear, I do not count myself amongst those unable to say no. But for those who can't, thankfully we have soci

Violating a contract is a breach of the civil code in my country, exposing you to financial compensation. It is very similar in the rest of the EU. So while not a crime, thankfully some countries still take that seriously. The issue is &quo

Very much all alive! Left in a box since I moved recently, but SNES, N64, PS1, PS2, GameCube, PC games all in rather good state. And yes, some of them are crooked, or faded. But I'm not looking at an art collection there, am I?

Hey, I'm hosting a server with a shitty PHP app, but you can put your addons on it. I'm just asking for 75% of your income. Not profit, no, income. I'm running the infrastructure after all. Not to mention that this 25% figure

Uber uses hype money to incentivize working for them and tanking Deliveroo, able to absorb losses for years, allowing them to drive out competitors out of business. Then Uber drives down their own prices. What do you do then? Change jobs? F

Do you realize that this is happening in Canada because certain people are pushing for privatized health care, draining more and more resources away from the public health services, causing the service quality to go down? It's a tried

Are you conflating the economy in general with healthcare simply because you have no argument? Le Pen voters are angry for some part, yes. They're the ones with the fewest resources, yes. And you know what? They still get the same heal
