Damn. A gunman fired at Republican members of Congress. I don't care what your political stance is, things should never get violent.

Yeah I know what OP meant. I obviously don't support any violence directed at fellow citizens of the republic within our representative democracy, especially not elected officials. Voting according to your beliefs is the best and most reliable way to promote a political agenda. My logical reasoning ability is fine, I'm just joshing OP. Perhaps you should consider a pharmacological solution to the stick you have jammed up your ass, commonly known as a "chill pill". It would benefit you greatly. I'm sorry you are so sensitive.

@IBA1 - logic classes would benefit you tremendously. You've not only presented your question implying OP meant something OP did not, but you've also twisted the subject by conflating two different situations. Your question could also be construed as supporting murder attempts.
I'm not a logic expert, nor am I a scratch golfer but I know how to swing a club and I know bullshit when I see it. Prevent this lazy thinking from creeping into your work or you'll never make it past VP.

Hi ! Looking for advice. I’ve been with a company in BC for 2.5 years, started support role, promoted to smb AE a year ago. salary is 65k with uncapped commission. We recently did layoffs, I was kept however there have been changes & meeting quota has become difficult & we have a way heavier workload. The perks are amazing but I need to make more money. Do you think I could get a role with more money with my experience that’s fully remote even in this “recession”..thoughts?

Anyone else notice a trend with the mass amounts of layoffs in tech? Why are all their resumes so jumpy? Not like 2-5 years jumpy, like few months at a time jumpy? But still can land a position with similar tech giants? IMO, lots of these people get hired by their rich friends, stay a few months before someone realized they aren’t qualified and were just a recommendation from a current employee. Then repeat that process over and over until your company is down 50%

Starting therapy tomorrow. A little bit nervous tbh. I have not been performing well at work and I am trying to get back to being a solid performer before I get end up getting fired.

I also don’t want to work and do personal stuff at the same time. I feel like such a mess rn 😔
