The year is 76,014. Voyager still hasn’t left the solar system. Also, the solar system now contains Proxima Centauri.

Didn’t see Baumgartner Restoration here yet. Incredibly soothing art restoration

You do you, just stay off my LAN.

And I believe a couple of the companies I’ve worked for have been sued, which is why they pay for prep time. But not all the companies in my industry (oil and gas) do.

Many of the companies I’ve worked for had policies that required you to put on your PPE, gather your tools, and be at your station at the time your scheduled to start. This takes approximately 15-20 minutes. And no, we weren’t allowed to leave until relieved by the next person.

I go through phases of writing things down. I do it for a week, realize I remember everything I wrote down, and get used to remembering. Then I’ll think, well, this whole thing was useless, I’m just remembering it. So I get lazy, stop writing things down, and start forgetting. Repeat ad nauseum.

I do something similar for waking up on time. I’ll set 8 alarms in 15 minute increments. I’ll start waking up 2-3 minutes before each one, and think to myself, well this is annoying, I’m waking up on my own. So I remove most of the alarms, and then oversleep.

Can’t the FCC just tell them they’ll be fined if they don’t comply? Don’t tell them how much they’ll be fined. Let them make their decision, then tell them how much it will cost.

This was an excellent read I hadn’t stumbled upon before, and I just wanted to express my gratitude. Thank you.
