Wogi , to Work Reform in Uber and Lyft now required to pay Massachusetts rideshare drivers $32 an hour

Well now they can stop pretending they're not employees and actually treat them like employees.

Wogi , to xkcd in xkcd #2948: Electric vs Gas

We'll just do what trains do.

Replace the battery with a massive diesel generator. Run that to get power to the electric motors.

Best of both worlds!

Wogi , to Work Reform in The world’s best airline is paying staff a bonus of 8 months’ salary after record annual net profit of $1.98 billion

Unions won’t necessarily fix this.

People literally sleep sand bathe at Kellogg plants and they’re not only unionized but successfully pulled off a long strike recently.

That said they should absolutely unionize, if they’re going to get fucked they might as well elect some lube.

Fun fact, machinists do not have friends. Only mortal and natural enemies.

We also use emery paper to smooth out rough surface finishes on machined parts. None of my tools but some of the tools the other guys have in the shop use little Ruby beads as reference surfaces. Our wire EDM also uses Ruby for some critical parts.

You’ve been subscribed to machine facts, strap in it’s a bumpy ride

Wogi OP , to Ask Science in Help me understand this effect

Sadly I have neither of these things available on hand to test that theory but I can at least confirm that the abrasive wheel is a ceramic alumina.

Actually NVM, I found a laser pointer and it has no effect, though it is admittedly quite dim.

Wogi , to Work Reform in The Las Vegas Strip Could Be the Site of the Largest Hospitality Strike in U.S. History, 35,000 Workers Ready to Strike Days Before Las Vegas’s Big Formula 1 Kick-Off Weekend

Vegas is just awful for formula 1. It’s going to be a shitshow

Wogi , to Work Reform in Nearly 20% of workers have changed their name on a resume because of discrimination concerns, says new report

Is it possible that they aren’t calling you because you’re over qualified?

It’s not uncommon to be standard practice to filter out anyone who’s over qualified because they tend to get bored, and they’ll ask for a lot more than less qualified candidates will.

Wogi , to Work Reform in The reason CEOs want workers to Return To Office is because they want you to quit

Because profit is in the tail.

They’re betting that some will leave, most will stay, and even if the some that leave are the best, most of their money is made by the vast majority of people behind them.

They’re looking at trends, not individuals. Individuals don’t matter to them.

Wogi , to Work Reform in CD Projekt Red devs unionise after its third round of layoffs in three months

You have demonstrated a complete lack of even a basic understanding of two entirely different industries with one post. Congratulations
