Yup. We keep learning the same thing over and over: Don’t hero worship people, demand they be better and stay better or don’t support them.

He will eventually do something that will make the OP situation look like nothing, just like Elon, Joanne, or Trump. It’s just a matter of time.

You should demand better then either, neither should be in charge of a sandwich shop, let alone a country.

My guess is in 10 years we will see him run for president similar to Trump. This won’t end well.

I say this as a millennial who drinks and actually did whisky tasting as my main hobby with reviews for 12 years; I get it. I worked with and in the alcohol industry. They have no clue. It’s all ego and razor thin margins and old ways of running a business. They are heavily resistant to change of any sort. They will not be able to handle this at all.

Add to that they are owned by rich people as vanity projects who want their ROI ASAP at levels that healthier margin/growth industries could barely achieve and we will start seeing them disappear. Which is too bad, because it’s centuries of tradition in some cases, and I find it tasty.

Yes. Source: Me. But I grew up in Montreal, so I’m biased.

I mean, it’s gotta be Final Fantasy I-VI Bundle (Pixel Remasters, because I’ve only played through VI and IV once every 5 years and I should get those numbers up.

So I have two Chromecasts, and this sucks, didn’t really want to replace them eith boxes (once they die). What viable replacements are there?

She was able to work, for free, in her freshman summer, while going through for a finance degree. So many questions:

Where did the money come from? Who paid her tuition?

Why not go through for Co-op, where you obtain a job as part of schooling? Or why did she have to hunt for internships? Even my wife, who had unpaid internships and family to back her up during the same time, had help from the school to find it. How jank is U of Texas?

Why, pray tell, is a finance degree holder the CMO?

I mean, I’m happy for her, but how useful is her recommendations? If you don’t have a family who can pay your tuition and summer living costs, this is useless.

And ignoring how people need money in order to have shelter and food, what does she think happe s if everyone starts doing this? Should I be calling up everyone at SquareSpace and asking for a job?

What I’ve found (in multiple systems across different companies) is spells and other class abilities that are in any plentiful amount will eventually have duds in them, and eventually printing schedules means you can’t fix/test them all. So you send them off, hope they don’t break the game, and make errata later if they are truly broken. This is a case where they had time to fix them, eventually.

Jabra Elite 45h, via Bluetooth. Use the same for work and the sound cancelling is nice. Also they are very comfortable, pair easily, and the battery lasts a long time.

The closest I could think about was Economists speaking out about Reaganomics. I also couldn’t find anything exactly like this, however I did find Bush Sr. Calling it voodoo economics and Democrats actually are credited in some cases as calling it Trickle Down economics as a negative. Even Gerald Ford attacked it, which is something coming from the guy who pardoned Nixon.

I found some criticism from Martin Feldstein in 1986 about the strength of supply side economics and some “extremists”, though that was after the fact.

But then you can’t fire them and not have to call it a re org.

It’s nice, but it comes with micromanagement. They are like fleas, though the biting is more painful.

It’s a setup for them saying you may identify as Trans, then switching it up by explaining some news for you, as in something said in the news, aka a storm coming

Octopath Traveler 2 and Deep Rock Galactic. Oh, and Grounded, when all 3 of us have time.

Won’t someone think of the poor capitalists who can’t love better lives then those around them!

/s, just in case.

I mean, you’re right. Im getting ahead of myself.

Well at least we know the future FF8 will not be overly melodramatic, feature a card game, have a frustrating last boss nor a weird pop song interlude. Or the saddest of sad boys as the protagonist. All of that would age poorly (to me)

Took me a second to understand the article meant FF9 remake. Here I was worried a bunch of people thought they had hallucinated FF9, then thought I was one of them.

I think the heat is getting to me. Look forward to trying the remake when I’m less loopy.

Yeah I was wondering if it was an underhanded way to get rid of people without officially letting them go. Seems like a lot of time and money tracking people to do that though, so I really have to wonder if they’ve lost the plot, thus me leaning towards incompetence.

That all said, and to hedge my bets, I haven’t seen their Financials. Maybe the verification is using cheap labour like YouTube review systems, for instance, or maybe they are really bloated.

Hard to say, you could be right. That’s where I’m less sure. I’ve had jobs where a (not direct manager) boss thinks I do less than I do, and more than I do.

The ones who believed I did less believed they did more than me regardless of what my manager reported or actual work done. The ones who believed more consistently didn’t hand me work and I eventually would leave.

One job I had different people who disagreed about the actual amount of work I did based on if I was at my desk vs the amount of awards I had vs my lunch breaks vs my extra work projects. I’d have feedback sessions with my manager about burnout but also if I was taking too long for lunch and going home too early.

What I’m saying is I think people are terrible at assessing subordinates work.
