Varies wildly.
Some people are in unions, others “at will” employment.
This is something to ask coworkers and hopefully a union rep.

And oranges are orange
It doesn’t matter what the totals are when people are talking about one or the other for a single use.
Less people commute to work on private jets than buses, are you gonna say jets are fine and buses are the issue?
Because that’s where your logic ends up
104·1 day agobut never the Congress that approved foreign aid to Israel,
You may have forgotten Biden broke US law by going around Congress to provide arms to Israel…
For the second time this month the Biden administration is bypassing Congress to approve an emergency weapons sale to Israel as Israel continues to prosecute its war against Hamas in Gaza under increasing international criticism.
Or maybe you never knew?
That makes it worse not better…
He wasn’t against minority education…
He was for “separate but equal”. Legitimately, that was his stance.
And when that was mostly the result, he labeled them “super predators” and just fucked their shit up with the disparite sentencing in the 92 crime bill he authored.
Few politicians outside the Republican party have fucked over the poor and minorities more than Biden has.
Everyone except big money donors wanted him to retire literal decades ago…
No one forced him to keep going, we had to fight him to stop well past it was time.
Like, you don’t think Joe Biden first and last “primary” being 40 years apart isnt a good thing?
Someone that wasn’t born till five years after his first run could have ran against him in his last.
The guy won once.
This is like saying a giant truck is the same as a civic for a 2 hr commute …
AI people always want to ignore the environmental damage as well…
Like all that electricity and water are just super abundant things humans have plenty of.
Everytime some idiot asks AI instead of googling it themselves the planet gets a little more fucked
13·2 days agowhich are literally synonyms in the context.
From my first reply:
Indigenous is more correct because that involves the land changing someone, not just something coming from there.
You might not be aware of every pedantic difference, I didn’t assume anyone would, that’s why I explicitly stated it
Feel free to Google and check my work, but this isn’t an argument someone can win, words have meaning.
They don’t call themselves that, they call themselves by their individual tribe names…
They’re not one bulk people.
You know the only continent humans are native to is Africa, right?
Indigenous is more correct because that involves the land changing someone, not just something coming from there.
It’s not just that, they literally get bigger every year because it’s a figurative dick measuring contest.
They didn’t just hit that limit and stop, they continue to get larger
Hyundai Santa Cruz.
I saw one a while ago and had to look them up.
Not sure how self repairable they are tho
Most trucks have zero reason to be as big as they are.
Slate has been getting a shit ton of advertisements for just starting out and they seem suspect. But something that size with a hot swap battery would sell very well.
But Slate also swaps between a small “kei truck”, cargo van, “SUV”, and hatchback.
It’s all modular kits attached to the base truck.
They don’t have hot swap batteries tho.
The slain woman, Tzeela Gez, 30, a therapist and mother of three other children, set out from her home in the Israeli settlement of Bruchin on Wednesday night
Hard to have sympathy for someone who lives in an illegal “settlement”…
That’s not Israel’s land to settle. No different than the Russians trying to “settle” Ukraine and demand sympathy when the local legal inhabitants fight back against invasion.
The DNC is a dictatorship where the Chair can do whatever they want.
There’s no “pretty much” in there, they’re beholden to no one with zero accountability for anything.
The DNC chair who tried to shove Biden/Kamala down our throats is the same one that fucked up this vice chair election.
But they lost, and we got a great DNC chair who will do the right thing and stay impartial.
Continuing to blame him for things he literally had nothing to do with makes no logical sense.
I’ve spent over 20 years hating the DNC and it feels like buzzaro world lately.
But ya’ll legitimately didn’t just miss the battle, the war happened and you didn’t even notice.
Bernie’s whole thing was it wasn’t about a person it was about a movement, and to take over the party we had to take over voting seats of the DNC…
And, well, we did that.
Mission Accomplished. We have a DNC chair who showed with their state party management they’ll run fair elections, and we can see in Minnesota that works out very well.
We spent decades working towards a chair like Ken Martin, don’t fall for propaganda from the neoliberals that now is the time to stop supporting the DNC.
Why was it never challenged before, why is it only when Hogg is involved that this rule was challenged?
Because for the first time in 50 years we have a fair DNC chair?
One who let a committee decide the best way to clean up the mess the prior DNC chair caused
Like, the DNC is whatever the chair wants it to be, but everyone is acting like today’s DNC is the same as the one from more than 3 months ago.
This has been a thing at least since the results were announced, it’s no secret or surprise to anyone who pays attention. And I get that most people don’t pay attention to this level of detail
But Hogg has known it.
Everytime hes made a public comment he knew this was coming. A cynic would say it’s all a media show and to pressure the DNC to keep him.
The thing is, the DNC were almost always guaranteed to keep both of them, there’s zero reason they’d vote differently.
It’s completely blowing up this bullshit were the DNC chair simply said “the DNC should be impartial in primaries” and people (including Hogg) keep wanting to twist that into something we should be mad about instead of something I’ve personally wished for since 2007.
We got the impartial DNC we’ve always needed
Why the fuck would we burn it down? Lots of the incumbents Hogg is complaining about can not win fair primaries.
Now more than ever we need progressives voting in Dem primaries but now all of a sudden everyone wants to turn against the DNC?
Do you honestly not understand why immediately after Ken Martin became chair the media started running articles about how terrible the DNC is?
You honestly think the billionaires had a change of heart and they’re not just doing propaganda?
This is like you won’t cheer for the Reds because Pete Rose played for them…
We’ve got a decent chair for the first time in 50 years man…
It would be absolutely insane to pick now as the moment to stop holding our noses, because we’ll have a fair primary and might not even have to hold our noses.
Like, at least vote in the Dem primary if you’re not voting in any other primary, that’s not a big ask.
Literally the opposite happened…

Congress didn’t want to because there was evidence US arms were being used in the genocide.
Biden violated the Leahy Law by personally going around Congress and “selling” bombs to Israel.
You’re spreading blatant revisionism about recent events all over, even when people inform you. So it’s really looking like intentional misinformation on your part.
