It was almost 20 years ago that I worked there, but yeah I still do. Used to get a spicy chicken wrap for my free meal everyday.

Only my manager. It was her punishment for being a lesbian.

I used to work for a chick fil a - ask me anything.

That’s completely possible.

Yes, this is basically how it was explained to me. The blood flow reintroduced to the liver basically flooded the poor guy with toxins.

The only piece I was hung up on was that she edited the textbook quote sent to me and I wasnt sure how to ask about that.

Thanks, I appreciate the response. The only part I got hung up on was that the textbook explanation she sent me was edited and excluded the part about how it could have been potentially stopped by a free radical scavenger. I guess I wanted to be able to ask if that was considered or should have been, or maybe it wasn’t because of some other reason.

Hey, thank you for the response. I appreciate your insight and. I definitely want to talk to the surgeon again, I guess I got hung up on the f at that the textbook quote she sent me was edited. She excluded the sentences about how it could potentially be stopped with free radical scavengers and then changed a sentence to say lethal where the textbook actually talked about the condition being blunted.

Wasn’t sure how to appropriately ask if those were things that were considered or should have been considered.

Asking for a cease fire to move people out. Nothing about them being able to return to their homes or land.

I think reddit/lemmy are good if you enjoy following communities. Twitter/mastodon are good if you prefer following specific people.

Thankfully I just drive without children in front of me.

Stay home for those too, nobody wants to get sick because you feel the need to be seen at work. We see you and we all think you’re an asshole for coming in sick.

I think the joke is about caterers doing this. Book a photographer session vs a wedding photographer and the prices are going to be drastically different.

Look at this privileged asshole who thinks his son should have his own room.

The benefit of open source apps is anyone can view the code to see if there is malware or other installed.

Clinton was openly calling for war with Syria as part of her presidential platform. I don’t know a single person that wanted the US dragged into another useless war.

I work for a company that champions their diversity and inclusion stuff EVERYWHERE. I’m partially deaf and wear hearing aids. At a company hosted Christmas Party they had this Cards Against Humanity style game - it wasnt CAH, all of the cards were pretty innocent - like speak in an accent, treat the card as a baby, etc. New guy got a card that said “Imitate someone at the table”. He turned to the guy next to him and said “I can’t hear you, can you repeat that” - mocking me for being deaf. One of people at the table caught on really quick and was like WTF did you just say?

Nobody laughed. The other person reported the incident to HR and I had to recap the whole thing to them. The guy never apologized for it. HRs resolution was that I could “leave the team” or the company if I didn’t want to work with him anymore. This person was one of five people on my team. I didn’t leave the team mostly because my manager was pretty supportive and didn’t agree with the HR outcome.

So yeah. Coworkers aren’t your friends and neither is HR. We got 84% on our D&I score for employee engagement ratings this year.

Some of the new Lemmy apps allow you to block entire instances. I’m using Sync and it supports this.

This is a multi layered problem without an easy solution. At face value, there really isn’t anything wrong with your statement, but once you dive into student loans/college education/how public education made everyone believe the only path forward was college - maybe, just maybe something needs to be done.

Capping interest rates so that people can actually pay their debt down is not a bad thing. The root of the problem still needs to be tackled - college is too expensive and administration departments are too bloated - but when the government guarantees the loans, colleges just raise rates because they know students can get them. Schools are not teaching enough financial literacy to make sure kids understand the opportunity cost of what they are signing up for.

Saying this as a person lived at home and commuted to undergrad and for my master’s degree and paid my loan back.

I’ve done it once when I worked for a consulting company, it was hell. The paycheck at the end of it almost made up for it though.

This means roads in Charlotte are fucked with no discernable patterns or thought behind how they are laid out.
