  • Far-right Uline President blames high-turn over rate on the ACA instead of their crappy work environment

    Jump

  • The first 5-10 years a person works usually results in massive amount of growth in skills and productivity. If a company won't adequately compensate for their ever increasing value, another one will.

    Annual pay raises were never more than 3% when I stayed with a company - usually 1-2%. When I swapped jobs I had a few 30% pay raises.

  • I need to vent about plastic milk jugs

    Jump

  • It adds flex to the container for variations of atmospheric pressure. It's what they mean by the fill levels.

    Milk containers are filled by weight. The exact volume of the liquid can vary slightly based upon the atmospheric pressure.

    If the container has no flex the top will pop off or the sides will crush in with pressure changes say when a truck drives over a mountain pass to deliver the milk.

  • Why Are Cars Getting Rid Of Android Auto?

    Jump

  • The real solution would be for the EU to mandate an standardized open source connection platform that all car companies are required to support.

    I currently use android auto on my truck. I had to make a bunch settings modifications to make it semi-functional. It took me months to figure out how to get it to do what I wanted, when I wanted it

  • Escape room

    Jump

  • They have been proven multiple times to significantly decrease productivity but they are cheaper to build. Visual and sound distractions break up concentration when you are tying to work.

    I had one place that insisted on an open office with these these torture style "ergonomic" chairs. I hated the setup so did some sleuthing. The chair model was discontinued because they sucked and the company got them on a steep discount. The "open office" desks where 1/8 the price of a traditional cubical setup.

    Nope- I'll just leave.

  • Ukraine holds at 15.5% as Russia’s rate swings

    Jump

  • Its not really a signal for good or bad for the economy, it's a signal for what the central bank is trying to do. You have to look at the situation to know if it's good or bad.

    Raising the interest rate is an attempt to decrease inflation by slowing down borrowing. Debt loads of companies/government entities increase due to the higher interest rate.

    Lowering the interest rate increases the inflation rate buy allowing more borrowing. Debt loads decrease as the inflation rate devalues debts.

    The Russian economy is under severe strain with oil revenue decreasing rapidly and debts loads piling up. Inflation pressure has been extremely high for years. The central bank is trying to decrease debt by allowing inflation rate to take off again. Lowering the interest rate while inflation pressure is very high is a desperate move to try to stabilize the economy in free fall.

  • My favorite was to take a screenshot of the desktop and set it as the background. Then put all of the icons into a folder. Most people I left the folder on the desktop. The IT guys, the folder was then hidden.

  • Non-destructice hijinks were highly encouraged at my first job. It was a way to encourage people to remember to lock up their computers when they stepped away.

    So mouse button settings were often reversed, hotkeys were mapped, desktop backgrounds were modified, and basically every other non-destructive computer prank was pulled.

  • Something's not math-ing

    Jump

  • Strange, what mysterious land is this where farm laborers are paid fairly. I have traveled to every continent and 40+ countries visiting thousands of farms. Never have I found a place where farm laborers were paid fairly. They are always the abused serfs of the society working long hours for little pay.

    I have seen human suffering in vast quantities but never a fair wage.

  • Chinese researcher on US visa charged with smuggling E. coli into America, FBI says

    Jump

  • They really need to teach researchers a "basics to international shipping/smuggling" course. Its a fundamental skill to learn when working internationally with others.

  • AI was behind over 50,000 layoffs in 2025

    Jump

  • Let's look at the job requirements for executive level and see who has the advantage.

    1. Biological relation to other C-suites....humans win.
    2. Ability to spout an endless stream of nonsensical garbage... AI wins (it was close however).
    3. Wasting valuable resources for little to no gain.... AI wins.
    4. Ability to kiss ass.... Humans win.
    5. Making correct conclusions based upon available information... AI wins (only wrong 60-70% of the time).
    6. Ability to claim other people's work as their own... Too close to tell. Gonna have to give this one a tie.
    7. Ability and desire to harm/kill other people for personal gain. Humans still win.

  • Wyoming ranchers want to transition to solar. The state stands in their way.

    Jump

  • Supplemental irrigation, even in higher rainfall zones like Bavaria increase row crop yields by up to 30-50%. Everytime you drive past a non-irrigated field, up to 1/2 of the environmental damage is not needed if the countries invested in upgrading the water management system from the iron age.

    50% more forests and nature, , 50% less chemicals and fertilizer used, etc... it all starts with water management.

  • 2.47 acres = 1 hectare if I remember my conversions right. 1 hectare is 0.01 sq km.

    3000 acres/2.47= 1215 hectares *.01= 12.15 sq km. You misplaced a decimal.

  • Irish fashion

    Jump

  • From my experience, anything you wear has the possibility to be mocked so just roll within it. If it's funny enough buy the instigator a beer.

    That's how I had some good nights in Ireland when I was 21, of what I can recall that is. Its a wee bit hazy for some reason.
