It’s an unhealthy environment, and they are subconsciously saying they don’t want to be there either. It’s just one job in one building in one company in one country. There’s many other opportunities out there that are not like Glengarry Glen Ross.

1·2 months agoI was the same, then I went to a lot of places: classes at community college and community centers, worked in restaurants, cafes, retail stores, and stayed at Airbnbs that were crowded like hostels. Sometimes you get talking with a co-worker or roommate, then get invited to a party and maybe find new friendships there.
103·3 months agoTo spend more time with daughter. Earning money that way is a high stress lifestyle of 100+ hour work weeks with creditors, investors, contractors, planners, inspectors, and tenants. Not everyone can function under that pressure long term.

That can’t be right, the red car has a service manual and too many functioning assemblies for it to be VS.

The Perl and Raku Foundation has seen a big drop in funding over the last decade
Understanding the Financials of The Perl and Raku Foundation
When I was a child I thought everything was run by grown ups, who had the answer to everything. Then I grew up and saw everything as run by children, who made everything up as they go. Now I see everything as run by animals with insatiable appetites.
An invitation for a free lunch that turned out to be a multi level marketing presentation for timeshares.
Less dependence on a US dollar weakened by faster inflation. Fewer foreign investments in the US. Nations less willing to host US bases, building up their own military instead. Less of a coordinated effort to fight contagious diseases or provide aid during disasters. The internet fragments, com domains become less popular for exchanging ideas and commerce.
Same. It was the only time that relatives could attend. My mother was brought there many years ago, and there was a sense of closure to bring my father to rest with her.
Cook on lowest heat. Check in 20 minutes. If dry, add water. If watery, drain the excess or continue cooking into porridge.

Looking through music and budget software CDs at a computer store or a college vendor table, there would be one with a penguin or BSD mascot. It wasn’t like the other discs that had DOS shareware games or utilities. The CD rom drives were 1x speed, attached to a card on the ISA bus, without plug and play, so it needed an interrupt number that didn’t collide with other cards. The install process was curses based, with no mouse. There would be much time spent figuring out how to partition the drive, usually after buying a book. Back then, computer book sections were huge. The software install dialog had one line description per package, and it wasn’t easy to tell what they did. Then there was setting up X Server and choosing a window manager. Not all video modes were supported, so it took a lot of trial and error with editing config files and resolutions before the the window environment would work. This was before home internet so it would take a weekend or all week to figure out. The only accessible communities in many parts were dialup bulletin boards, unless there was access to a college computer lab with a mosaic or netscape browser. At this point it was realized that I lived in a tech desert, quit my retail job, and moved.
