American Christians dont follow Christ. Its just a social club to them. And a way to look down on other people.

Ironically, the exact thing Jesus preached against.

Ive said it before: most American Christians are just modern day Pharisees.

Capitalism basically seeped its way into many American churches and silently replaced God

Action by the people to prevent things like this. Potential lawsuits against the corporation. Current employers becoming more motivated to move towards unionization. Protests.

Literally anything constitutes action which is what I meant.

I suppose it depends on if these people can find new jobs. If enough people get laid off and struggle then change may occur. If they just move on then probably just be status quo.

should play Palworld more

I think they're finally at the point where they've concluded that Jesus is too woke to be their savior and Trump is God's actual son

Or something

They don't fucking make sense. They'd believe Trump has not only been on the moon, he was the person who actually landed on the moon first, if he made such a claim.

ironically Christians also believed such a religion would rise up and that person is the anti-christ

it is joever

She's stealing it for herself so she can trickle it down to the 20,000 people she just laid off.

how will she trickle it down to people who are laid off?

comments I found

"the proper way to view this is that 20,000+ people in the middle class were participating in the economy, and now one person is stealing all that money for themselves. How fair."

"Its cheaper to give CEOs raises than it is to keep and give raises to employees. Those layoffs also mean that money they save from not paying people can be used as investment money or to pay off current debt, etc.
Its short term vision that has businesses and investors obsessed with make money NOW! NOW! That doesnt consider long term consequences."

no one wants to work!

Citigroup raises CEO Jane Frasers 2023 pay by 6% to $26 million

https://www.cnbc.com/2024/02/20/citigroup-raises-ceo-jane-frasers-2023-pay-by-6percent-to-26-million.html

Citigroup increased Chief Executive Officer Jane Frasers compensation by about 6% to $26 million for 2023, the lender said in a filing on Tuesday.
Her pay was comprised of a base salary of $1.5 million, cash bonus of $3.7 million and $20.8 million in deferred performance-linked stock, according to the filing.

Frasers compensation was determined by her execution of the most consequential set of changes to its organizational and management model since the 2008 financial crisis and the sale of international businesses, the banks board wrote.

https://www.cnn.com/2024/01/12/investing/citigroup-layoffs-earnings/index.html

Citigroup will lay off 20,000 employees over the next two years, CFO Mark Mason said Friday. The reduction comes after the company reported a $1.8 billion net loss for the fourth quarter of 2023, its worst quarter in 15 years.
The bank expects the reduction in headcount to save $2.5 billion over the long-term.
The bank reported a huge earnings loss of $1.16 per share for the fourth quarter, far below estimates of a loss of 11 cents per share, according to FactSet.

Citi said there were several one-time costs that impacted its results. These included a $1.7 billion charge the bank had to pay related to the regional banking crisis last spring, an $880 million loss in Argentina and $800 million in restructuring costs associated with about 7000 layoffs in 2023.
These layoffs are part of Citi CEO Jane Frasers years-long effort to cut red tape at the company and boost lagging profits. Fraser called the results very disappointing on a call Friday morning, but said that 2024 would be a turning point year for the countrys third largest lender.
Whenever an industry or company goes through these types of reductions, its tough on morale, said Manson on a Friday morning call with reporters. With that said I would I would point to the fact that weve been very clear about the strategy of the firm and very clear about the momentum that we expect.

That's what I thought when he told me.

Jews are also not a monolith. Like the deleted post about not allowed to enter a church. Don't think that applies to all Jews but I did watch a video about Hasidic Jews and it said they did believe this.

traitor?

did you know the Apostle Paul was from the sect of Judaism in the Roman era called the Pharisees and he got official authorization to go into other Jew's houses and pull them out and take them to prison or stone them because they had converted to Christianity?
Then later he converted as well, but not after his hands were likely bloody. Then his fellows sought to kill him as well. He also got arrested and was set to have a trial about it before Ceaser where his accusation was causing uproar against their religion.

I

In April 2023, Betty Glover, a 91-year-old grocery store clerk in Oregon, was finally able to retire after a GoFundMe campaign raised $82,000 for her. After seven decades in the workforce, Glover couldnt save enough to retire and cover basic expenses such as for food and medicine.

I hate the thought of not working, Glover told a local TV station. But she wanted to spend time with her two children, four grandchildren, six great-grandchildren and two great-great-grandchildren.
Glovers was not the only GoFundMe retirement. Earlier that year, 82-year-old Walmart cashier Butch Marion retired, thanks to a GoFundMe campaign.
These outpourings of generosity are not feel-good stories; they reveal Americas severely broken national retirement system. Welcome to retirement American style, where retirement is work.
Most Americans do not have enough money to retire on. Forty-four percent of households with members ages 55-64 have no savings at all. The median retirement account balance is about $100,000; most middle-class people need $600,000. No wonder there are about 39 million workers 55 and older in the U.S. Workers 75 and older are the fastest-growing age segment of the workforce.

While some older workers are making good money, feathering their retirement nests and enjoying comfortable jobs senators, corporate executives, lawyers millions are stuck in low-paying, physically demanding and dangerous jobs at which they have little if any voice or power.
Older workers are closing the earnings gap with their younger counterparts, not because employers suddenly prize age and experience more than they did in the 1980s, but because older workers are ramping up their hours to meet financial needs, as highlighted by Pew Research.
When retirement security declines, so does older workers bargaining position to demand good wages and conditions. Employers know that more older people must keep working, even with less favorable wages, hours and conditions. My research shows that at least two-thirds of workers 62 and older are working because they dont have enough money to retire.

Workers over age 55 are disproportionately represented in jobs that are lower-paid and physically demanding: 31% of home health and personal-care workers and 34% of janitors are over 55, while older workers make up 23% of the overall workforce.
This grim picture is on track to get worse. Most of the fastest-growing jobs in the U.S. economy, such as in healthcare and software engineering, are unlikely to benefit older workers. (The software sector has a median age of 38, while the wider workforce median age is 42.) Many of the jobs in healthcare are low-paid, physically taxing work that may not be a good fit for most people in their 60s or 70s.
Paradoxically, even as many older folks need to keep working to make ends meet, most people 62-70 are not able to work for a host of reasons and will retire with inadequate incomes or savings. As the Schwartz Center for Economic Policy Analysis reported in 2019: Between the years 2010 to 2018, 55.3 percent of workers aged 55 and up in the bottom half of the income distribution were forced to leave the workforce because of layoffs, plant closings, age discrimination, poor health, and family concerns.

And yet, the work longer mantra persists; the Economist magazine featured a headline last month that trumpeted: Why you should never retire. That may have benefits for the economy when the labor market is tight, but the nation should not depend on people working longer to make up for inadequate retirement-income security. This only exacerbates inequalities in wealth, health, well-being and retirement time.
Working until you drop is not a civilized plan for a civilized society. We desperately need a Gray New Deal that improves jobs for older workers while also restoring and boosting pensions and retirement security. Federal and state incentives should promote better-paying and age-appropriate work. Improved job training and stronger unions would also make a difference.
An Older Workers Bureau at the Department of Labor could help steer and support such efforts. Strengthening pensions would help ensure that older workers get better wages and conditions and are working by choice rather than necessity. We need subsidized guaranteed retirement accounts and advance-funded pensions, and an expanded Social Security system.

Maybe the boomers will vote for UBI when they all start realizing they can't work forever? Or are they already rich and retired?

Thought that had already been the case for the past 10 years.

isn't this your second thread about her??

I think it is more that what is popular mainstream for guys is curated both by the girls and the boys.
Any guy straying from that will be hit by labels like nerd, weirdo, etc from both sexes.

You will find most teenage cis guys have a vapid personality designed to maximize women liking them based on what they believe is curated. Those who don't are usually not successful (talking teenagers).

not good

This is a corporation our tax paying dollars subsidizes heavily by the way.
In addition look at your bill and every fee they are supposed to pay to the government they just charge to you.

https://apnews.com/article/cellular-att-outage-compensation-five-dollars-5fca100330ed57960ac43dc4e3240a21

AT&T says it will give affected customers $5 each to compensate for last weeks cellphone network outage that left many without service for hours.
The Dallas-based company said on its website that customers will get the $5 credit on their account within two billing cycles. The credit does not apply to AT&T Business, prepaid service or Cricket, its low-cost wireless service. AT&T said prepaid customers will have options available to them if they were impacted, although it did not elaborate on what those options might be.
The outage knocked out cellphone service for thousands of its users across the U.S. starting early Thursday before it was restored. AT&T blamed the incident on an error in coding, without elaborating, and said it was not the result of a cyberattack.

if this passes my guess is basically every corporate technology department is going to meltdown and call these people idiots.
this would take so much work to implement even moderately safely

Thing Is the c word is not a word for white people in general. It means an uncivilized, uneducated white person. If someone called me that, I think I would give them a look of surprise, or laugh, cause I look nothing like a hillbilly. Now, on the other hand, if someone called me the h word, that would sting a little more.

Exactly. This is how I knew saying tc got what he deserved was correct.
If tc was a minority his first complaint and title of thread would not have been "customer service is dead" but instead how racist people are.
Which shows how little effect the C word did as his real complaint is not about racism.
That and total disdain for minimum wage workers. It was obvious this was a "this happened" type of story and the type of person tc was after that.

Was crazy a user tried to go off on me so unaware then it came out it was the C word.

Genuinely yes. The ban was because they knew 90% of the discussion would be flaming & trolling, and of that trolling the majority would yes be at the expense of trans people.

Meanwhile on CE all that trolling and flaming happened and the end result was a trans user got banned after they were provoked into retaliating. It was a shitshow

At some point you gotta face the fact CE is not mature enough to handle events like that while protecting its marginalized users
