Agree with this but its less about unions and more about resetting the empoloyer/employee dynamic after a period of time the employees clearly had an upperhand. they are tired of allowing flexible work and giving 2 yoe people 300k. they want power back.

its not about evil-y stroking a cat, or meeting in a smoke filled room. its as easy as just reading the moment in time and taking advantage.

no. they have specific laid out bounds with which they can operate in. it's deeply dangerous and disturbing for them to try to exceed that. especially because they aren't elected. they don't get to just exceed those bounds and wait for legislature to issue a ruling to roll it back. it's quite the opposite.

its the equivalent of if the tsa started trying to pat you down before you got in your car. and then saying its okay because congress can just roll it back.

too bad people's brains can't process stuff like that. they can only do a single level of "do i agree with the outcome" and not whether or not its actually legal or sets a bad precedent. or god forbid, think what powers that would give their political opponent when they take power.

student debt was another one. whether or not you agree with forgiving it, it's deeply disturbing for the president to knowingly do something unconstitutional and do an endrun around congress' power of the purse. With the hope that no one has standing to challenge it

isn’t this basically like doxxing? aren’t the people criticizing this move the ones who would be in hysterics if someone did this to a journalist or politician they like? especially if it was a woman of color or whatever preferred group

yeah i’m sure, they just happened to wait till after the election and after he was out of money, and after it was early enough to prevent people from losing their life savings

well he has no more money to give, so of course they are happy to arrest him now. they just didnt bother investigating the fraud until after it collapsed for some reason..

A lesson to be learned for anyone taking a job in a fast-growing company is to really think about the value that your specific job brings to the company.

Imo the issue usually is that interesting and value bringing work are usually not in alignment at these companies.

most companies i’ve worked at, no one wanted to work on ads and found them boring even though they brought in all the revenue.

everyone wanted to work on the experimental or shiny new thing which may not have demonstrated value yet.

but not sure if it’s worth working on the boring thing just for job safety
