What interests me is the terror threshold. People are just so much more, including me, afraid of electric motors vs ICE per kw.

Do you work with industrial machinery?

It is not playing, it is confused, thinking the ball is food.

I am just picturing some alien biologist studying us

"This human is operating a video game called a FPS. It may seem like he is playing but really his instincts for self defense and attack are just misfiring. It isn't recreational it is just confusion"

Could easily be both. I kinda feel like I ran into this once with a resume I saw that the person lived way too far away don’t remember exactly.

One company I worked for really sat down and did it I know because one of my ex-employers had folded and they called me about how they couldn’t reach them.

I am so glad humanity has no history of using very bad metrics to make decisions with.

I know. There is a reason after my eldest became 1 we moved to an area we can’t afford.

Baking a loaf once a day isn’t all that hard especially if you just bought a bread maker. This could easily be like the era before internet porn where porn stores would have some regular books in the window.

Leave it to Jupiter to mess yet another thing up

I imagine it is because many of us have had it happened. We worked hard and did what we are supposed to do and now have to suffer because of another person’s mistake. A mistake that they are shielded from. It isn’t like the upper management is going to get fired because they overhired.

Additionally it tends to come in waves and that seems to be more based on what they think they can get away with not based on what the market is actually doing. One of my main vendors just did that to their engineering department. They are publically traded and their financials are fine.

Kinda glad I work in government/heavy industry. The highs aren’t very high and the lows aren’t very low. I will never be rich but I also will never be unemployed for over a week by choice.

When I interview I come up with a list of technical questions about the job. If they get about +70% I recommend them else I don’t.

I don’t think I have ever read a hobby section of a resume.

I am sure nothing will go wrong with hiring people based on race instead of merit.

I thought my employer wants me to come in is because a lot of my work is hands on. Kinda hard to debug an electrical problem remotely.

I keep wondering when I am going to see in the US what I saw in some very hot climates in the world. Construction going on at night.

My wife is a nurse.

The workload increases. They can’t onboard nurses fast enough. The nurses pull in longer and longer hours. Eventually one gets burned out and takes some time off. The workload piles on the remaining nurses. Another gets burned out. The workload piles on even fewer nurses…

Solution A: bring in temp nurses. Problem, they cost more.

Solution B: go overdrive on onboarding. Problem, more time spent training less on patient care. Additional problem, there is a shortage.

Solution C: massively increase salary and find the workaholics. Problem, the insurance companies won’t change their pricing structure.

Added to all this is cost disease. You need about the same number of nurses per patient as you did decades ago.
