toiletobserver, to politics in UAW president under investigation by federal monitor

As a partial owner of the federal government, I’d be willing to overlook minor indiscretions based on the good things he’s doing.

Every time big labor starts to make a come back this seems to happen in one of the big unions

They’re claiming corruption. Mans has been slaying corporations left and right what would he have time to abuse? Them?

Ensign_Crab,

I’m sure it’s a coincidence and not retaliation from the most pro-union administration to ever break a rail strike.

whyrat, to world in Turkey's inflation passes 75% in what economists believe is peak

For those not keeping up: this is the fallout from Erdogan ignoring economics and keeping interest rates low for years; only in the past year or so having conceding to reality and finally letting rates rise. They’ll likely continue suffering fallout from his prior stance on interest rates for the remainder of the decade.

From last summer:

Aye, he’s an utter twat, is what he is.

Said his economic policies were from his god or some nonsense too, going against all of his policy advisors (who he came down hard on).

A nutjob deeply damaging the country he’s in charge of, economically, and in so many other dangerous fascist ways too :-(

Confetti money. This is exactly why something like Monero has to exist. priced in Monero house prices, for example, are falling rapidly

🚨Monero bag holder spotted🚨

shortwavesurfer,

But how big is the bag?

KevonLooney,

The bag is empty. That’s what the expression “left holding the bag” means. You just end up with an empty bag because you were cheated out of everything else.

pufferfisherpowder,

Moon wen? 🚀🚀🚀

I’m okay IF the ads were only from novels of my liking. Never gonna happen though…

perishthethought,

Hmmm, yeah, see? This is why they shouldn’t be allowed to call the ads they have now, “personalized” when they’re really not.

walter_wiggles, to world in Turkey's inflation passes 75% in what economists believe is peak

What happens to salaries when inflation is this high? If you wait for an EOY raise you’d starve.

Lojcs,

Public workers, pensioners and minimum wage get raises when the government needs political capital. Not sure about private

Edit: but most unions negotiate in the beginning of the year I think

Siegfried,

Here in Argentina, salaries more or less follow inflation (they always are a little behind anyway… unless you are a politician).

Inflations isnt new to Turkey, so i guess they must be adjusting them

filister,

And that’s what’s happening pretty much everywhere. Inflation is a godsend to employers for which work became immediately cheaper while they adjust the prices to either match the inflation or surpass it

WTF man, I pay for the tickets and now I have to watch ads???

xilliah,

Afaik it’s a thin margin sector. I’ve even heard of pilots paying to fly during bad periods.

Warp10Lizard,

We paid for cable and streaming services too. They’ll milk us to dust, then run ads on the remaining pile.

Ascend910,

I guess the best way now is to download a 4K movies onto a laptop and bring it with you on your trio

ability to reach engaged customers

Not sure that being stuck to a spot in a tube you can’t just escape (and easily live) from is the same as “engaged”.

bamfic,

not flying united anymore, thanks for the tip

Horn noted that the typical purpose of a probation interview is to obtain information on Trump’s social and criminal history, financial resources, history of mental health, physical or addiction issues as well as to assess his living situation.
