  1. All political beliefs aside, it greatly worries me that we've had three, two term presidents in a row. I'm not sure what it means exactly, but patterns such as these indicate something. I'd be interested to hear what the 12oz politiratti has to say on it.

     

    Discuss.

     

    Politiratti. Don't know if i am one, but I am personally intrigued. I think the country is growing. I know that there can sometimes be a delicate balance that I feel like can somehow be shifted. There are other things going on that kind of interest me. I think there are new congress people that were put in too. like they replaced incumbents. I try to not look to deep into it and just think of where I am going and how to make it work. I think he isn't so bad. Not the worst and not perfect. I think he is a little fucking weaker than I thought. Fuck it man it is your last term, go balls to the wall. allow same sex couples to petition their significant others to become citizens. end nuclear proliferation. allow investigations from coroner reports of people killed by police officers. and meaningful changes made. smoke a joint. fuck it do something cool and good for the world.

  2. So where I live is a right to work state. Essentially it means that you can be let go for no reason whatsoever. It also means that when you get fired you are entitled to your back wages immediately. So if your fired on a Friday it is easier to put in a check request on a monday or wednesday to ensure that you pay someone off completely. Just my thoughts on why friday. plus you get a week of work out of someone while you look for a replacement so you shorten the amount of time transitioning.

  3. Seems like you've got some strong opinions there symbols.

    I'm assuming it's not because of your clockwork like monthly outbursts, and you're just really into college football.

    I mean only an idiot would form such a strong and emotional opinion on a controversial topic without any insight. Right?

     

    Why would ”being really into college football” be the reason someone has an opinion about pedophilia? I'm also pretty sure it was from the view point of an educator and appropriate action from there. You know.....since this happened at a school and all.

  4. Every once in a while a thread like this is made and there are always comments like, ”WHY DO YOU HATE COPS/THERE ARE GOOD COPS/NOT ALL COPS ARE BAD”

    Perhaps I'm ignorant but the police in my city killed 31 civilians last year, including a kid handcuffed and on his knees.

    Maybe cops are not as trigger happy where you live and thats cool.

    However, a cop is still someone who controls and regulates how you live.

    I don't understand how you would enjoy someone controlling you.

    Much less someone controlling you with the constant threat of force.

    My cousin got placed on academic probation and thought about joining the police department.

    My uncle kicked him out of his house.

    my uncle broke it down like this, that he wasn't going to have any son of his become part of a group of fucking idiots that enforce laws they don't abide by or understand.

    However, if YOU want to be subservient to idiots by all means, you do you.

  5. So I got to about page two when the vegan/soy/man boobs/bpa/meat started.

     

    On that note my friend went to the doctor and they told him he had diabetes, take all these fucking pills/shots whatever. He is like no I'm not taking this shit I'm just a fat fuck and need to loose weight. So he just went vegan, not super strict and once a month/week? he eats whatever he wants and started working out. He went back to the doctor after losing like 40 lbs and they were like ummm no you dont have diabetes. So just eat healthy and get enough protein. Also tahini gravy is made from legumes, has tons of protein and doesn't taste half bad.

  6. Saw this the other night

    Which reminded me of this

    as a teenager i also worked at mouse themed family restaurant which will remain nameless. i had the rad job of climbing in the mouse suit and dancing around like a fucking jackass for minimum wage. i used to get high as shit before going to work so it was almost bearable. one time i tripped over a kid in the mouse suit. the head fell off and the kid instantly started crying because he thought he had killed me. i used to rob the place blind and spent most of the day playing skee-ball and eating free pizza and cake. it still sucked.

     

    i got caught getting high one time by this manager that looked exactly like buzz lightyear. he made me think that i was gonna get fired and he was gonna call my p's to let them know. dude was picking up the phone to call my p's and then started laughing his ass off and said to invite him out to smoke next time or don't come in reeking like weed.

  7. Im gonna ask what is probably a dumb question...but... What the hell does a consultant do?

    No not a dumb question. There are all kinds of consultants. What I do is I take what I know about where I'm from, layout, make up, dynamics, business deals, working relationships whatever and make it my fucking business to know whats up. Then I find whoever and whatever is trying to make a deal, turn a higher profit, operate more efficiently and I pitch myself to them. Pretty much take a cut of whatever profit or benefit I can provide them.

  8. I worked a few jobs as an independent consultant over the past year and a half. This is what I learned from it.

    Get EVERYTHING in writing.

    Some people didn't even give me 1099s. Just poof into thin air once the work was done.

    Keep your own records and stay on top of your taxes.

    Right now I have to do a lot of work and maybe I'm lazy but find someone good to just handle that shit.

    My boyfriend does freelance production stuff, sometimes it takes 45 days to process an invoice. So be very aware of when you will actually see the money. I personally was dicked out of a contract early on so I would not feel comfortable with that lag.

    There are some benefits to doing whatever it is you do independently, freelance, as an independent contractor whatever. Mostly the negotiation power for what you make and clearly outlining what you are getting paid to do. At the end of the day save like a motherfucker though. In between contracts suck and medical and all that benefits type stuff comes directly from you now.

    Well best of luck.
