I lived overseas when I was a kid and my grandma used to tape Saturday morning cartoons and mail them to me

Haha yeah that was my method. I was just too stubborn and, combined with the heat at the time, courting disaster.

Is that why I couldn't siphon my gas that I needed for a generator after a hurricane? Not only did I fail at what I thought would be an easy task, I got sick and threw up in my 95⁰ house

No but they would make guesses on where the "juicy databases" might be when new features or improvements would be showcased.

Cue my coworkers, who watched to glean hints at databases they can break into. For forensic purposes.

I'd hate to see y'all go but the growing pains are quite obvious and I would understand the departure. Lemmy has become the only social media platform that I use and I'll be sticking around here for time being.

Oh and my supervisor quit a month later, right after he got the end of year bonus. I don't blame him. Good dude. He helped a lot of the team secure other jobs in the industry within 3 months

That happened to me. I noticed a vague Monday morning meeting when I logged on. Checked with my team to see if they knew what it was about and no one knew. Supervisor was MIA on slack. Just before it starts we got a group text from him that essentially said, "what the fuck. I'm so sorry guys. I'm not allowed to speak or I'm immediately fired"

I checked the invite list and, sure enough... VP of department, VP of HR, my supervisor, and my small team. I instantly knew we were all fired.

Joined the meeting a few minutes early and it was just my teammates all wondering out loud what's going on. They're all pretty young. Couldn't help but blurt out, "nice knowing yall..."

Supervisor texts me with "please don't, we'll grab a drink right after this"

The cool executives log and blah blah blah your team is getting shuttered thanks bye.

We did get drinks at 9:30 in the morning.

Also we aren't a reddit repository. If someone wants all the reddit posts in their community they should just be using reddit.

I mean... You don't have to believe someone else's beliefs to be in a relationship with them. It happens all the time. I work with a "witch" and she's like every other normal religious person. Wears a necklace, has a thing on her door, goes to work...

I concede that that may not be the case outside of the US. In my experience here, though, there's a whole world of apps and ecosystems that schools for children use now that I'd previously never heard of.

Yeah but if you don't have brightwheel or seesaw or whatever the fuck, you won't be getting important notifications. They only only call when you're late for pickup or your kid shit so bad you have to take them home. Some of these are tied to billing as well. Don't want to use My School Bucks? No aftercare or cafeteria breakfast/lunch. Sack lunch only.

It's a huge pain but in many cases there's no way around it.

I'm aware the original subject matter of this post is different, but the walled garden apps that you have to use no matter what start as soon as they enter preschool
