I’m salaried so I don’t have a lunch break. I work from home so I basically set my own hours as long as I can be contacted from about 10am to 3pm and go to any meetings I have scheduled.
I’m just this guy, you know?

Except we primary him and we either lose and get blamed for when he loses, or watch our progressive challenger lose because the rest of the country hates him.
America isn’t nearly as progressive as us Internet weirdos think it is.
I hate Biden and hate that I have to vote for him. Future generations are definitely going to hate us.
That was an amazing lucky shot! Perfectly in frame, capturing the sky and the meteor and the reaction
Zombie. Vulcans.
There’s a new theory that the ramps were actually internal. I like it because it means they don’t need to bring a lot of extra material and manpower to the site just for the ramps since they’re built into the structure of the same material.

You know what would make a twelve-hour fantasy movie even more fun? No pausing for bathroom breaks!
I’ve worked for a couple startups and you’re absolutely right. If you make a profit you pay taxes on that money, so startups like to spend most of the money they bring in. They also want to show revenue growth, since that’s what investors like to see. You grow revenue by getting more paying customers. And you do that by doing what your customers want.
When you go public, your goal is to increase shareholder value. So you do this by reducing costs and finding ways to wring customers out of revenue. You find ways to nickle and dime customers out of revenue so much you develop an entire branch of law devoted to you suing your customers
