Points for creative thinking, but I would prefer not to get fired and have to seek redress through the courts.
I don’t know if you were addressing the specific case mentioned, but if someone has a softball game they want to go to, and they say they have a medical procedure to take care of, that could easily be grounds for termination.
Best answer I can think of is to unionize and negotiate a CA that includes shift trade rights. Short term, I don’t think there’s much you can do if the company wants to be a dick.
You’re suddenly a superstar athlete making tens of millions of dollars. I think we have to disqualify you from the game on those grounds.
I could see it online, yeah. If you use a friendly tone in person it wouldn’t be a problem.
“Thank you friend” is impolite? Maybe it’s informal, but I think that’s a great solution to the problem. I can’t imagine anyone having a problem with that except maybe an aggro asshole.
Having experienced both, I think it’s more accurate to say having bad relationships.
Anyone else you think doesn’t deserve the protection of the Charter?
“If they did nothing wrong, they shouldn’t have anything to hide,” sounds EXACTLY what one of the cops you’re concerned about might say.
That’s exactly what it was. But the sheer odds of them settling on my house the same day as I worked a game a fair distance away at a park that happened to be in their path to their new home? Pretty fucking high.
No more untucking! I don’t want to worry about showing off my gut every time I raise my arms.
Fuck the haters. Buy what you like.
I’m getting ready to umpire a ballgame when I’m like 20. Come out of the room five minutes before game time, and both teams have gone sprinting to the dugouts because this massive swarm of wasps (bees? Maybe bees… it was over 20 years ago) came buzzing right over the field the game was supposed to be on. Heading southeast. Partner and I nope back into the room for a while.
Anyways. The insects continue on doing whatever wasp- (or bee-) like activities they were doing and we play the game.
Game goes well. I get changed and go home. Home is somewhere between 5-10 km southeast of the ballpark.
As I park and get out I notice that the family is freaking out. Swarm of wasps (or bees) had just buzzed their way over from the northwest and taken up residence in one of the walls of our carport.
I also enjoy the follow-up, “but the day is not yet over.” (This is a Star Trek reference, but “today is a good day to die” was written into Klingon culture by one of the writers who was a student of Native American history.)
Bidet attachments are like $50–100 on amazon, installable with very little know-how, and your family is under no obligation to use it.
If it’s straight nights it might not be too bad. I worked 2 days/2 nights/4 off for about 13 years and I would not go back now that I’m in a 9-5.
Unless you’re getting decent compensation for it, I would try and find something else. Humans just aren’t nocturnal.
Sorry you live somewhere with (even more) regressive drug laws (than my country). Signed, a Canadian.
I don’t think our points are mutually exclusive. Small sites can be shitty while the trend remains that sites get shittier as they get bigger.
Having very strange dreams. I fell asleep with the tv on the night before. Never really did that before or since. Woke up between the two impacts.
