9:07am and tell me to return 15 minutes after and I’d be pulling out my phone every 5 seconds and doing math.
Is it really so hard to add 15?

Not to mention they’re worse at keeping time.
You know, like the whole point of a watch.
There was a time when those productive jobs paid as well or better than white collar jobs.
Not anymore. Not unless you own the business.
Somehow I missed that you qualified those two groups as innocent and guilty.
Better to ruin the lives of a million people than to take the life of one?
You’re going to have to provide some serious philosophy to back that up.
Because the poor little corporation couldn’t possibly source another tool, or develop another manufacturing process.
If those jobs fucking paid well we wouldn’t have a problem with it.
Our low skill labour is already right here in the country. People aren’t taking those because they don’t pay enough to cover bills.
That’s some solid reframing, bro 👍
The catch is that the politicians who promise electoral reforms would have to be able to win in the current system. And why would they want to change a system is which they are winners?
Trudeau promised electoral reform in Canada, which some people foolishly believed. The federal Liberal Party has won under the first past the post system many times in the past. It makes no sense to expect them to suddenly give an advantage to the underdogs.
Did you eat it raw? Or like …how did you notice it was warm? Usually eggs get pretty hot when they’re cooked.
Good grief I sure hope whoever designed those knows what pi is
This, like every argument about executive pay, just demonstrates how overpaid those similar private sector jobs are.
You are making an argument against private sector pay, not for MP pay.
We have actual data going back 30+ years that watching TV limits attention span in children and is also addictive.
Nobody gives a shit about that though. What makes tiktok so much more important?
Wanna be my roommate?
Holy shit this is too real.
“All of the colossal problems facing society will still be charging forward unimpeded, but at least you can feel good about it!”
It really is the same energy
So you have to fiddle with the volume less on vinyl?
That’s the one good selling point I’ve heard for vinyl so far.
For every story of a person being given a raise, there a million stories of a person fighting for a raise and being denied.
Even the union jobs those others guys are talking about, you know what the raises are in our new contract? Five cents for the equivalent of three years of full time work.
Don’t be fooled by the echo chamber of cushy office jobs that is so prevalent on Lemmy. You hear about these things because almost nobody else here has to work these shitty jobs like we do.
Overfishing is their ancestral right!
Or maybe we should just protect the salmon from all people.
