Definitely does for me too!

We gotta give them a huge tax break too! That way it’ll trickle down straight into the CEO’s pocket!

Seriously though. Snapper has saved my bacon so many times, I don’t even know how I operated before it.

I remember being obsessed with this one when it first came out! It might be time for a replay on my Steam Deck!

Yuck, yeah. I remember so much of the tension in the first Resident Evil was fighting with the damn controls. It’s like trying to run away from something in a dream, and your body isn’t doing what you want it to!

Nonono, that was the National Socialist Party, duh!

Hey, at least she picked one of the most reliable cars on the market.

I’ve treated my hunting clothing with permethrin when we were going to an area that was known to have an extremely heavy tick population. We had a spray bottle of the stuff, and did a thick coating all over our outer gear, and then allowed it to dry. Permethrin is fairly low toxicity for humans & dogs, but absolutely killer for mosquitoes and ticks. Worked like a charm!

“I swear babe, I didn’t cheat on you! I just came into contact with a Brown Widow spider!!”

Ah, I see what’s happened - I’m on mobile with Sync, and it doesn’t support that markdown. I had to open this thread in a browser to even see your comment formatted correctly.

Man, WFM was so so good. I absolutely loved the sound design.

Alaskan here - this is what I’m most afraid of. I can’t tell you how many coworkers (who are conservative) have bitched and moaned about how “That’s the only reason Peltola [D] won!”

It’s extremely evident that they simply don’t understand the system, nor do they want to. They’ve latched onto it as “the thing that made their pick lose” and so it must die.

OpenSUSE TW KDE supremacy!

I actually have this too! For me, it usually happens when my extremities get too cold, and it can take me a bit to even notice it’s happening. It usually happens predominantly in my big toes for some reason. For me it just feels like like it’s gone completely numb, and I lose all feeling in the digit. I usually break out the heating pad and try to warm it back up until I can feel it again.

I guarantee she had access lol. Getting access to a flight line is not as difficult as you’re making it out to be.

If her job duties included…you know, being on the flight line (as it sounds like her contract absolutely was,) all she had to do was get the SMO to verify her clearance, verify her job duties, assign her a RAB, and she’s good to go. Guaranteed she had all of the correct clearances and authorizations.

If you’ve got access to the area, nobody is going to follow you around and “keep track of everyone.”

I know this because I had all of this access as a civilian contractor when working on a military installation.

I feel you fellow IT brother/sister!

The IT world is chock-full of this garbage, and all it really forces people to do is A. Provide lesser service so that it “takes longer”, inflating their time metrics, and B. Causes people to make shit up, or submit their own BS tickets to make it look like they’re doing stuff to justify their existence.

Ultimately holding people to a metric-based system like this leads to worse service, and make people hate their jobs.

The job I had before my current one, I was site lead for Field Services. Luckily we were sort of a start up/experimental program, so the technician metrics weren’t tracked at all. MAN it was nice. Nobody felt stressed out needing to justify every second of their day, they wound up doing the work in an appropriate amount of time because it didn’t matter how long an individual took (be that long, or short). We only had an SLA to meet for the customer, which was easily hit.

I even took it a step further and didn’t really pay much heed to the corporate timekeeping rules… If someone needed to run an errand or “telework” for a day; fine by me. The company didn’t give anyone sick time, or enough time in general, OR a big enough salary, so they can eat my whole ass. Lo and behold, our section had the lowest MTTR, and highest amount of tickets closed, all with 100% SLA met. Crazy what you can achieve when you treat people like adults and actual human beings instead of soulless automatons.
