White House Publishes Steps to Protect Workers from the Risks of AI

when you combine this with the efforts to extend retirement age to 70 and over, it's very clear that our politicians, but specifically gop conservatives, are hell-bent on sacrificing the population at the altar of capitalism. they want us to start working earlier and to work longer into our lives, all while not paying a living wage and raising the price of just about everything. it is the continuing evil of capitalism run amok.

Success Story #1: Circumstances improve for my non-romantic SP

I wanted to share my most recent success story about my work buddy (who we'll call Gary) who became an SP in my life.

As stated in the title, Gary is not a romantic SP, he's just a friend I have at my job. He's really kind, hilarious, and outgoing, and funny enough, he's good friends with a romantic SP of mine which is how we became close in the first place.

Gary and I got to talking a lot every time we'd work a shift together. It was really nice and we would make each other's days just getting to talk to each other. He's even rooting for me and my romantic SP (who we'll call Bee); he's played role as wingman through the bad circumstances for quite some time, which is really kind of him.

However, all of a sudden, Gary wouldn't talk to me nearly as much as he did before. His whole demeanor changed and I had no idea what was going on because he got so quiet. The amount of friendly greetings was lacking and almost every time I saw him, I'd have to be the one to start the conversation. There were also times I'd get ignored. It made me feel a bit down and worried. The few things he did mention to me were his horrid living situation, lack of sleep, and car troubles. So, I was under the assumption the lack of communication between us was due to the stress of his personal issues, although anxiety told me he just found me annoying or "Bee might not want me anymore. So, Gary is distancing himself."

I was feeling a bit down about it anytime I'd see Gary at work and felt a slight bit of annoyance when he'd chat it up with other people but not me. It was getting to a low point.

However, what got me out of this situation was rampaging (repeating over and over in my mind) "He will talk to me a lot" every time I saw him, wishing the best for him, reassuring myself it was his issues causing the poor communication, and moving on from the situation when I started feeling annoyed. They were such simple, subconscious things that I'd repeatedly do and because of that repetition, that persistence, Gary's bad circumstances improved all at once.

Within about a week, the issues Gary had were resolved, plus he got a job promotion. I got an enthusiastic greeting and he told me about what changed. Now, we're back to actively having our conversations and he's even kinder to me than he was before. It's amazing and I'm so happy for him!

Mind you, I didn't time any of this, I didn't take any sort of action in an attempt to fix the situation, and I was having feelings of sadness and annoyance. All I did was think of the few simple things I mentioned and it came to fruition in real life.

Keep persisting, even through negative feelings.

Quebec Labour Minister Jean Boulet has amended his law project, Bill 19, regulating youth employment in the province to allow children under 14 to work in agriculture, provided the business has a maximum of 10 employees.

The proposed law, tabled in March, would limit the number of weekly hours Quebecers 16 and under can work during the school year to 17. It also sets the minimum legal working age at 14 — with some exceptions for jobs like babysitting or tutoring.

But Boulet's amendment would allow small agricultural businesses to be exempt from the new minimum working age and employ children as young as twelve.

[...]

This new exemption echoes the demands of employers, who asked for more exceptions to allow children under 14 to work.

But there are concerns over the agricultural environment being risky as injuries in young people are frequent. Some doubt the ability of Quebec's labour regulator, La Commission des normes, de l'équité, de la santé et de la sécurité du travail (CNESST), to ensure the safety of children in the workplace.

see art of a poster encouraging kobold unionization on my dash and despite finding the art cute and concept funny. my immediate reflexive disdain for any dragon that'd allow it. are you so weak?

replace the posters with "all kobolds are free to deal directly with their dragon benefactor-- no third party intervening or coming between us" "union dues cost around 700 silver a year. put your money towards a brand new video game system instead" "remember your freedom to reject union membership, assessments, and dues without fear of losing your job. don't sign away that right!", get one of your known loyalists to rat out the organizer, make an example of them for trying to interfere with the freedom and autonomy of your beloved subordinates and putting silly ideas in their heads! these progressives and their newfangled concepts of the kobold-dragon relationship have no understanding of the history of either species.
