Remind me of a joke:
Why is six afraid of seven?
punchline
Because seven is a registered six offender.

Is it the fine or the redaction?

Incineration toilets are more common in remote facilities where disposal of excrement can pose contamination risks. That’s how I learnt of them by watching documentaries.

102·1 year agoYes I agree. I probably lost some of the context in my reply, but I was just saying there are degrees of remote work that aren’t 100% and that’s fine. We do have some 100% staff, but I sometimes want to go in. I get reconnected with a good group of people. I could hand off some of these mundane duties to others, but I choose to do them and go in. I get to help some of the younger folks on the team that do go in all the time as they are trying to learn.
Anyhow, I hope that made sense.
Most recently, I merged into the left lane as there was a spot open. Traffic was going slow (20mph) on the freeway. The guy behind the spot aggressively sped up and laid on the horn. Maybe he expected me to be scared and jump back. I didn’t and committed to my move as was expected. I will confess I gave him the bird after his outburst, but that’s how I vent. I’m not perfect.
He was very upset at this on top of my lane change and tailgated me for a while until I disappeared ahead shifting lanes again following the lack of cars ahead and flow.
Anyway, that’s all stress. And it adds up. That’s why I gave the finger as it eliminates some of it right then and there. You have to let it wash away from you when you get home in some positive way. This is all extra wear and tear on you that would be gone when you work from home.
Not all jobs can be remote, while some can. Not all remote jobs can be 100% remote. That’s great if you can, but someone has to go swap out failed disks or see things hands-on because of whatever reason. And there are isolated networks too.
Our hybrid situation works and the manager knows it. He’s in the office all the time because he’s trying to be available to everyone, but we are scattered around that and other campuses. He feels it’s part of his job while understanding other jobs can be remote or hybrid. He only cares about the end result. Not saying upper management might say something stupid, but not likely as we’ve had a flexible work environment for ages. Since the Before Time.

Reminded me of “Gallon of PCP”:
I would very much like to order up one of those there annulments, please.
