Two nights ago I had a random meeting with the CEO, who I have a really good relationship with, added to my calendar. Thought nothing of it.

I entered the zoom call and said ‘so am I getting fired?’

The answer was yes.

Awkward silence ensued for a minute until they started telling me about the severance package.

Side note: I can try to negotiate that severance a bit right?

Article I linked above says it’s a humane trap that doesn’t break bones or draw blood. So that’s good.

They’ve believed the end is near for 2000 years.

Shit, the Bible says that the rapture would happen before a particular apostle would die. Yet, here we are without a 2000 year old apostle.

The gymnastics to make it make sense are that he had a vision of the end when he ‘wrote’ Revelations.

On a completely trivial note: who the hell estimates a number that small? Approximately 4? Just count them, it’s not hard.

Yea so I’m a driver and the characterization that it’s drivers retaliating against customers is… wrong. When we skip an order it’s because it will literally cost us money to deliver, and it’s DoorDash that we’re saying no to.

The problem isn’t the drivers, it’s DoorDash and their unwillingness to pay us appropriately. They’ve recently reduced the base payout to $2, and there’s no delivery where $2 is enough to cover costs of delivery, let alone make the extra few bucks that we’re doing this shitty job for.

DoorDash is actively disincentivizing drivers from taking orders that customers don’t tip on. Please don’t blame drivers for DoorDash’s shitty business practices.

Shit like this is why we had the layoffs we say at the beginning of the year. It was all hysteria made up by a bunch of idiots who want a recession for…. Reasons.

The economy is strong, inflation is down overall (though still high), and unemployment has been below 4% for nearly 2 years, something we haven’t seen for more than 20 years.

The recession we’ve seen this year is fake.

Other than Lemmy, where did users go?

Idk about any woman he wanted. There are plenty of people who were never attracted to him, and he may be dysfunctional in a way that draws him to those people.

No one can ever have anyone they want. There will always be someone that says no, and if you don’t have the maturity to accept that and let go of your sense of entitlement you might wind up turning into a predator like Masterson.

“I stopped going after the super hot girls and then finally met my wife”

I know it’s not what you mean but it gave me a good chuckle.

The whiplash between posts on Lemmy is so great.

Everyone seems to hate google and how invasive they are while simultaneously simping for google’s mobile OS

This shit is so stupid.
