The woman who replaced me at part of my job two years ago. At least 30% of her job is sending emails. She claims she does not have the “Contacts” section in Outlook. I gave her step-by-step screencaps today (as I, a meanie poo-poo head, was WFH and could not come to her office) and she informed me it took her “only” 3.5hrs to figure out how to send a delayed delivery email.

I AM BEGGING EVERYONE ON THIS SITE WHO HAS SHIT HEALTH INSURANCE, ABUSIVE CORPORATE BOSSES, AND/OR NO JOB SECURITY TO PLEASE GET A GOVERNMENT JOB.

I KNOW THE APPLICATION IS DREADFUL

I KNOW THE MONEY IS NOT AS GOOD

BUT PLEASE GOD I NEED SOME VAGUELY COMPETENT WARM BODIES I BEG YOU

cashiers should make 50 dollars an hour minimum, get comprehensive PTO + benefits packages, and get expensive top of the line chairs to sit in at the register. im not joking at all.

absolutely love the Store Emergency Guide for Union Activity from 1995 that my job enforces

[huh-enheim]

To "Chilchuck, party dad" and "Chilchuck, professional hater" and even "Chilchuck, union man" let me add: Chilchuck, HR manager.

Does he like the position of HR manager? Is he even any good at it? Haha well those are different questions entirely.

But the only other members with Normal ideas about dungeoneering as a job have quit, and the remaining bunch of autists with their wildly eccentric and badly communicated personal goals/boundaries are RAPIDLY "we're like a family here~"ing themselves towards catastrophic misunderstandings, workplace incidents, and/or federal crimes. So for all that he's private or abrasive...

...he spends a lot of energy trying to protect everyone's boundaries and keep the peace. Not just in a ~found family~ loving way, but in a more fundamental way, understanding that work takes trust, and trust takes work.

”Your comfort is not more valuable than another person’s life, let alone hundreds or thousands of other people’s lives” is a very simple and obvious ethical concept and yet USAmericans will regularly stand up and argue the opposite with their whole chests. Peak imperialism brainworms

What if Dragon Age but they all work at Costco

it’s been 20 minutes and I’m already obsessed with this AU

More

[fuumiku]

It was Maid Day today yesterday a week ago so I got struck by inspiration to draw the worsties, and it ran away from me into a whole AU where they’re coworkers at a maid cafe. She’s a med student & this is just a part time job, and this is his depression job while he gets his life back together. He needs something he can be workaholic about to forget what it’s like having a personal life and personal issues. He’s actually the accountant, but the new hire janitor (Izutsumi) doesn’t show up for half her shifts and is a sloppy worker, so he gets the extra work of doing her job on top of his because he’s undervalued and overworked. Of course, janitors also have an uniform to keep the aesthetic cohesion as they go about cleaning the place, of course.

Senshi’s the part time cook you only see slivers off, he’s kind and warm when you do see him and have a chat but most shifts he’s in and out the kitchen without a trace. Laios and Falin are regulars because Falin and Marcille are besties & in the same med school, Laios accompanies Falin as she visits her friend at work and gets hooked on the food. Chilchuck has to remind Marcille to work instead of chatting with Falin for an hour, and next thing he knows she’s distracting him from work too. That’s it that’s the AU. Inspired by this idol AU fanart a bit <3

This was not meant to be birthday gift but well…… Happy bday Chil!!!

something kind of gross to me is the way that some artists who post about how AI is going to take their jobs speak in a way that makes it seem like they think they are the first and only profession who has ever faced this kind of existential threat. they just seem fundamentally uninterested in relating the fear they're currently experiencing to the larger context of labor movements and the history of technological advancement/automation's effects on other fields.

they only ever discuss the problem with automating creative labor. there's this sort of implicit stance that when labor they view as not requiring The Divine Spark Of Creation Only A Human Can Possess gets automated that is just the natural course of technological advancement. But when it comes for their labor it's suddenly a completely new thing and a threat to the fabric of our Culture. The idea that creative work should be venerated above other forms of labor and is uniquely deserving of protections is just kinda shitty and stupid.

I worked at the Pope factory that mass-produced Pope Francis. My boss was The Megapope™ and he was an anti-union piece of shit.

Help a Disabled Trans Lesbian Heal from C19 and Survive Workplace Abuse!!!

My girlfriend is a disabled trans lesbian of color, she works with heavy machinery in a warehouse and the managers are trying to force her back to work while sick and C19 positive. This puts her other coworkers and her job at risk.

My girlfriends check was SHORTED in retaliation for "disobeying" management! Yes we know this is highly illegal but in the mean time we need help just surviving because over $470+ was shorted out of my girls check.

I need to get my girlfriend some medicine, PPE, more C19 test, groceries for my household and get some help with transportation. If you can, PLEASE help my girlfriend and I stay afloat while we fight management and the higher ups at her workplace.

Kingdom Hearts Union χ - Agrabah

[box-dwelling]

OK we are getting so much union yaoi here and I'm so happy about it but I did want to give a very quick tldr of what the shorts featuring them are asking us to do.

First of all the shorts are made by jellybox an indie animation studio. Who you should go follow

Second the main hashtag related to them seems to be #staytooned especially for updates

However, there are others that they are recommending we post under to help spread the word.

#CancelledCartoons is being used to post about your favourite cartoons that were unjustly cancelled or removed from being able to be watched. There are a lot of these but the biggest name I knew was infinity train which was of course treated horrifically, though it looks like other instances like two close to my heart, the owl house and inside job are also very much free game.

#RIPCartoonNetwork is being used to talk about cartoon network shows that you wish were still around after mass lay offs and other terrible practices

#NoAI is reccommed for parents to talk about their kids' favourite tv shows to protest the idea of uncanny ai slop being fed to kids

#HumanArt is recommended for talking about your favourite animated shows to support having human workers making art and not ai.

Finally and most vitally, support and donate if you can to The Animation Guild.

speaking of the erins, you hear kate cary is stepping down?

I did! Honestly, I'll have to be real with you, I have no strong feelings about it.

While I've criticized certain statements of hers in the past (that bit about Tom the Wifebeater was a doozy), I don't know her personally. I also don't even know how much control she had, functionally. I don't feel like I have enough information to have a well-based opinion, here.

What sticks out most to be is the fact that... well, with Kate and Vicky gone, only Cherith remains and we've lost any small window we did have into the writing process.

It's been a long time since we'd just get casual information drops on places like Facebook or authorial chats, but with this, it feels like that era truly is dead. We will never again get another Su Susann's Missing Kits drop, or a letter to a fan that tosses up a name like "Skunkpaw," or the writers sharing their good and bad takes. Or anything else like that.

Dgmw it's understandable, and I can guess why that era ended (probably the Spottedleaf's Heart controversy, and the ukraine windclan thing). WC is charted by an unknown collective team, now, who generally keeps their anonymity well-guarded. It's probably for the best.

So... on the subject of Kate Cary stepping down, I thank her for the work she's done and hope her future pursuits are fulfilling! Without her, WC might not be here today. For all the yowling and growling I do, I wouldn't be putting so much effort into my various projects if I didn't profoundly love the series she helped to form.
