@lufins-dad said in How many hours of work for a college student?: @mik the vast majority of the work study jobs are reserved for students getting Pell Grants and such. Plus, they pay minimum wage. Luke’s making $12 per hour at Walmart and would like to keep the rate and job, just transfer between stores during school and breaks... You are correct that most work-study jobs are income dependent.

Hey @George-K, do a series for “Types of TNCR Posts”! Heck, anyone who cares to try, give it your best shot!

Wow...I guess my dropping Fios hit them harder than I thought...

What are the odds?

I am confused about what local orders would be in place on July 1? Isn’t he saying time to get in line with what is going on all over the country?

@lufins-dad said in Lumber: 54,700,000,000 board feet of lumber was used by the US in 2017. That's 168,827,161 cubic yards of lumber. Think about that for a minute... That depot is nothing. That depot is one among many. Lumber is stacking up. I'm thinking it's a trucking issue...

Epic's blatant flaunting of the rules is typical of the white privilege of companies led by billionaire straight white male CEOs, such as Epic's Mr Sweeney. Contrast with Apple's CEO, who is gay and only recently and barely a billionaire. Tim Cook understands what it is to struggle under the American straight white male hegemony. I would like to know how many diverse people are in Epic's C-suite and board of directors. I have a very strong feeling that Mr Sweeney and his company are racist, and I for one think that racism is wrong, full stop.

@jolly said in $3,700: The Georgia experience should teach Republicans an important lesson: money is not everything. Money makes you stupid.

@jolly said in It Ain't Over: @doctor-phibes said in It Ain't Over: Brought to you by the same people that think the South are still in with a shout of winning the Civil War. We damn sure won Reconstruction... That's not over yet either.

@doctor-phibes said in Changes at Basecamp: We have a guy at work who has always made a point of responding to any personal stuff on email with a terse 'please do not include me in these non work-related discussions', frequently cc'ing (friendly) managers. It's become a bit of a trademark for him. He recently celebrated his 30-year anniversary, and everybody posted some nice things. He then sent an email out to everybody, thanking them for their kind words and the gift. He received a ton of emails back, cc'd to all, saying 'please do not include me on these non work-related emails'

@george-k said in The new iMac: @klaus said in The new iMac: The main problem is that most monitors look like this on the back. Ah, I see your point. I guess in particular you can rule out all monitors with adjustable height.

Integrity. Honesty. Intelligence. That's impressive to find. They must want to keep their customers.

"For those of you enrolled in our frequent flyer program, you've earned 68 million miles on this voyage." "We'll take those miles," spacecraft commander Col. Mike Hopkins said moments after landing. "Are they transferrable?"
