"This could also cost an employer (either real or perceived) productivity, and result in wage stagnation or lack of hiring new full time employees." Why should I care about that more? "Additionally, and most importantly, full

I absolutely would not suggest men have done a commendable job, because for much of that time women were basically treated as property.

Being reliant on being married is NOT more freedom.

That's what I said?

" various education ranging from various courses, conferences up to paid tuition at an university (and then actually giving people the time to do it)" If you can afford that, you can afford more money for salaries.

"The other aspect is that some of us actually like our work and want to succeed at it" I like my work and want to succeed at it too. Do not insinuate that someone who values their time outside of work doesn't. That is demeani

"the paid vacations when the current crisis is over" You don't have to pay for the vacation, if the crisis never ends.

Good for them. If they demand that you're available 24/7, then they can pay for it.

I would say using bus/train time to do work work is fine, so long as you count that in your 8 hours. Like, that time isn't used in addition to a full day in the office.

At the same time, it's also given women the ability to survive and exist in society without requiring them to be married or otherwise supported by a man.

This is great, but it still is incredibly sad that only certain people get this benefit, instead of it being something given to everyone in the country like in most of the civilized world.

Not when they make wave after wave after wave of accounts to assail you with.

Twitter is a private company. The President's Twitter Account is not a private entity, though. "If one's account is suspended they cannot - by definition - access Trump's tweets. This is similar reasoning as that given i

In reality, those people would just leave Twitter.

No, that's terrible, too. The stars of Star Wars, Episode VIII were harassed off social media by a bunch of trolls. No one should be forced off social media by trolls.

No, not really. If that amount of money is ludicrously expensive, then no, I can't buy service from the competitor.
347.
by s73v3r_ 8y ago
If I can't get service, then the other provider isn't relevant to me.

by s73v3r_ 8y ago
There's also lots of evidence that they can do that. There are a number of places where people on one side of a street have access to a competitor, and thus are able to get better rates.

by s73v3r_ 8y ago
If I can't buy service from that other provider, then they don't count as competition. I can't threaten to leave my current ISP to get a better price, and you can be sure that they know that.

by s73v3r_ 8y ago
Ehh, I don't buy that. Being within 1/2 mile doesn't matter if you can't actually purchase service. And I can't imagine that they're going to leave this with business class internet, and not also apply it as pr

It's almost like these companies implemented things in the shittiest way possible, to purposely sour your opinion on the law.

"downvoted for stating basic facts, amazing." Most people who complain about this just don't want to admit that they're not actually stating basic facts.

Is it? I've never gotten one.

I'm sorry, but I absolutely cannot get behind any of this "spoiled engineer" stuff. Mainly because employers here, not completely in tech but in general in the US are shit, and treat their staff like shit. That "You gave

That is mainly because, in the US, most bike lanes are not separate from the road, but just a painted line on the road.

On a motorcycle, yes. Otherwise, I'm surrounded by a cage of metal.

Competition isn't likely everywhere, though. Rural areas, for instance, probably could not support more than one hospital.
359.
by s73v3r_ 8y ago
Yeah, but if they say that, then they should be responsible if they are wrong.

"But seriously, how can it possibly be the hospital's fault for doing exactly what the law and market incentives give them every reason to do? " Because they're the ones actually doing it? Because they're run by adu
