#I hate this client so fucking much

Client: pays us $3000 to perform address validation

Client when presented with the new addresses that resulted from that process: no we don’t want to use those use the ones we gave you

Can I just have $3000 then? Cut out the hours of work (which I also billed for)?

The jail just didn't transport a whole mess of people for hearings today. These are hearings that happen literally every day of the week. And the jail just up and decided they didn't need to come. They're on their way, but being 2 hours late to court surely won't have any negative impact on how things go for the entire goddamn day.

I mean this as gently as humanly possible, but some of you really need to start interacting with people you don’t like in person. I cannot stress enough that you will be EXPECTED to be able to work alongside or with people you don’t like throughout your life and, in real life, you can’t just clap back with a spicy comment and keep your job.

I am by no means saying you have to tolerate racists, ableists, homophobes, or sexists. But you will have to learn to work with people who you disagree with, whose personalities drive you up the wall, and who you just simply don’t like.

Being unable to do so is a “you” problem that you need to work on- because it doesn’t just apply professionally. It applies when fighting for human rights too. And if you can’t have empathy for the 80 year old who calls your call center because she can’t figure out the online portal, then you’re not really practicing the ~uwu im a small baby that needs empathy~ vibes that you preach, now are you? Treat otters the way you want to be treated, etc etc.

news letter from SWOP Behind Bars, sent Monday, July 17th, in regards to the Woodhull Freedom Foundation's constitutional challenge to FOSTA

[images 1,2,&3 text:

"The D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled on Friday, July 7th 2023, that the Fight Online Sex Trafficking Act (FOSTA) is constitutional, upholding key portions of the law that critics have said intrudes on First Amendment speech protections and harms sex workers.

FOSTA suspends Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act of 1996, a law that grants online platforms protection from liability for user-generated speech. After FOSTA passed, social media platforms were forced to censor sex-worker generated content in fear of being held criminally liable under the law. Since becoming law five years ago, FOSTA has been condemned for making sex work more dangerous and increasing online censorship. While lawmakers passed the law to combat sex trafficking, critics have alleged that the law has hindered law enforcement from using websites to catch actual traffickers, and that sex trafficking reports actually tripled the year after FOSTA was enacted.

Although the Court did not issue the constitutional ruling that was sought, it held that the law must be interpreted narrowly in order to avoid ���grave constitutional questions”. By imposing the interpretive discipline Congress lacked, the Court ruled out many of the broader applications of FOSTA that caused Woodhull and its partners to challenge it.

Specifically, it held that FOSTA “Does not proscribe facilitating prostitution more generally, which could extend to speech arguing for the legalization of prostitution or that discusses, educates, or informs about prostitution.” It also clarified that the law “Does not reach the intent to engage in general advocacy about prostitution or to give advice to sex workers generally to protect them from abuse. Nor would it cover the intent to preserve for historical purposes web pages that discuss prostitution.”/text]

[fantasticalleigh]

this is a very weird rant to have on here and i acknowledge that but:

fuck people who wait until the last second to go somewhere to do their taxes. my dad works in a tax office and i barely ever see him during the tax season bc he’s always coming home so late.

apparently today they got so many people coming in that they had to start turning people away after a point because they just couldn’t handle any more even though there’s multiple tax preparers there. that’s never happened before. tax deadline week is always a nightmare no matter what but this is still ridiculous. now he’s probably not gonna get home until 3 am again.

 then his clients get so damn snippy with him when he accidentally sleeps in and opens up late the next day. and the majority of clientele he gets never come prepared and expect him to wrangle everything together for them. and they always have the worst attitudes.
