Muscles 02/09/23 6:26:58 PM #14 | Yellow posted... So old people in retail get paid less despite being there for 30 years because the new guy can lift heavier boxesIf both the new guy and the old guy work hard then sure, seniority can come into play but if you let the old guys just skate by while the new guys work hard then I'm not sure why they deserve anything over the new guys. Also I'm taking about effort not ability, if you are 60 and aren't as strong as you used to be then sure, you can cut them some slack on heavy lifting but they should still be putting in effort. What incentive is there to work hard for either group? If you are an old guy locked in then you can slack by without any trouble why not do the minimum? and if you're a new guy and it doesn't matter how hard you work them why not do the minimum as well? --- Muscles Chicago Bears | Chicago Blackhawks | Chicago Bulls | Chicago Cubs | NIU Huskies |

Mine has a decent contract with guaranteed raises, seniority based overtime, grievance processes to settle disputes, pension plan and above all the best healthcare benefits (seriously, Id pay triple the dues I pay and still think its the best).Fuck that, if I work harder than someone that's been there longer I should be able to get ot over them Seniority for anything is trash, you shouldn't be able to skate by just because you've been there a while, everything should be merit based --- Muscles Chicago Bears | Chicago Blackhawks | Chicago Bulls | Chicago Cubs | NIU Huskies |

Sad story is, while ginger is actually amazing at helping your stomach the most common ginger ales you can get at the store don't actually have ginger in it. I think people still associate it with helping stomachs from when it used to be made with ginger.I thought the fizziness helped, didn't realize it was the ginger.

You deal with it by not caring and minding your businessIt does effect me, I'm wasting gas and hours of my time every week to drive her to work, if I didn't then my mom or brother would have to take off of work/school to drive her/let her use the car. I wouldn't have a problem giving her rides either if it was closer or she was making good money but she's not, she wants a 45 minute ride, so 1.5 hours round trip each time, to make the same that should could get just about anywhere. --- Muscles Chicago Bears | Chicago Blackhawks | Chicago Bulls | Chicago Cubs | NIU Huskies |
Topic | How do you deal with self centered loved ones? |
Muscles 02/04/23 1:10:48 PM #1 | My sister doesn't care about anyone but herself, our mom bought her 2 different cars that she was supposed to pay her back for and ran both of them into the ground without paying for them. Recently she moved back in and got a job 45 minutes away, since she ran the car into the ground she either needs a ride there and back or just take my mom's car for the day and she's not even making good money. She could have gotten a job 5 minutes away for the same pay, or even more but decided she'd rather be a huge burden on all of us just so she can have a job she likes. Am I wrong for being angry about this? It pisses me off that she didn't take the burden she puts on the rest of us into consideration when getting a job.

I find it deeply concerning that we haven't shot it down. That's the general procedure for an airspace violation. We have all of our nightwatch assets deployed right now, and that's some scary shit. They aren't up for a drill, so that means there's some serious talk going on right now at the pentagon.I'm pretty surprised some civilian with a gun hasn't shot it down yet tbh, maybe when it gets further east --- Muscles Chicago Bears | Chicago Blackhawks | Chicago Bulls | Chicago Cubs | NIU Huskies |
