Participant[quote=Coronita][quote=deadzone][quote=an]Looks like LinkedIn productivity will decrease by 75%.

Perhaps, but then again what does Linkin actually “produce”?
I thought the more interesting thing is the companion article about folks leaving Silicon Valley to work remotely in other parts of the country having their salaries adjusted downward. Folks on this site seem insistent that pay is not going to be adjusted based on where the they person lives. Mark Zuckerberg begs to differ:
“We’ll adjust salary to your location at that point,” said Zuckerberg, “There’ll be severe ramifications for people who are not honest about this.”[/quote]
lol linkedin connects a lot of people woth opportunities. and a linkedin profile vetted usually is enough and a replacement for a resume. ive been hired from linkedin contacts and ive reached out and poached people from linkedin. Also, it serves as a prescreen for who your peers and boss will be which could sway you decision to join company or not…Also, as one hiring vp one pointed out…Someone with 500+ connections probably isnt a fraud. Someone with 10-20…maybe more suspicious….
total game changer.[/quote]I trust a LinkedIn profile more than I trust a resume. If someone is connected to and get endorsed by their boss and peers at their previous companies, it means more than a few words on their resume.

Participant[quote=scaredyclassic]Why not require an oath of fealty prior to employment?
Becoming a serf
A freeman became a serf usually through force or necessity. Sometimes the greater physical and legal force of a local magnate intimidated freeholders or allodial owners into dependency. Often a few years of crop failure, a war, or brigandage might leave a person unable to make his own way. In such a case, he could strike a bargain with a lord of a manor. In exchange for gaining protection, his service was required: in labour, produce, or cash, or a combination of all. These bargains became formalised in a ceremony known as “bondage”, in which a serf placed his head in the lord’s hands, akin to the ceremony of homage where a vassal placed his hands between those of his overlord. These oaths bound the lord and his new serf in a feudal contract and defined the terms of their agreement.[19] Often these bargains were severe.
A 7th-century Anglo Saxon “Oath of Fealty” states:
By the Lord before whom this sanctuary is holy, I will to N. be true and faithful, and love all which he loves and shun all which he shuns, according to the laws of God and the order of the world. Nor will I ever with will or action, through word or deed, do anything which is unpleasing to him, on condition that he will hold to me as I shall deserve it, and that he will perform everything as it was in our agreement when I submitted myself to him and chose his will.
To become a serf was a commitment that encompassed all aspects of the serf’s life.
Moreover, the children born to a serf inherited the status of the parent, and were considered born into serfdom at birth. By taking on the duties of serfdom, individuals bound not only themselves but their future progeny.[/quote]
uh… noParticipant[quote=deadzone]I’ve already established the fact that most of the white collar work force, myself included, have been mostly jerking off during the Pandemic. That’s the problem. Can’t go on forever. But sure for now it is great, I make good money, do maybe 25% of the work I used to do for the same pay. Get to go surfing or ride my bike at random times during the “work” day. What’s not to like?
Also I am a manager, nobody is keeping track of my work hours. I just have to make sure the folks that work for me get their shit done.[/quote]
So, does that mean your team’s velocity decreased by 75% over the last year? And you still have your job?Participant[quote=deadzone]I generally agree with you about the meetings. But beyond that you are full of it. If you are working for me I’m paying you to contribute to my business, not take care of personal affairs. If you get done with your tasks in 20 hours then either 1. you did a half ass job, or 2. you need to ask your manager for more tasking or 3. preferably a motivated employee will take the initiative and find more things to do that contribute to the team such as taking lead on new projects, helping out teammates who are struggling, etc.[/quote]
Not everyone wants to overachieve. Some people are fine w/ meeting expectation. If you can meet expectation, that’s all that matters.August 2, 2021 at 9:14 AM in reply to: June inflation way below expections, MSM clickbait hypers and inflata-doomers lose interest in topic #822741Participant[quote=Coronita][quote=gzz][quote=Coronita]wait, how are you srguing theres no inflation on this thread but on the other thread talking about how rents are going to the moon???
[/quote]
The rent increases are real, not artifacts of high background inflation.
Even with low overall inflation, some prices will go up a lot while others will drop.[/quote]
So it’s inflation, but not really inflation. Ok…

It’s not inflation, it’s just price increases.August 1, 2021 at 11:33 PM in reply to: June inflation way below expections, MSM clickbait hypers and inflata-doomers lose interest in topic #822729Participant[quote=scaredyclassic][quote=an][quote=scaredyclassic]The true cost party

LOL, the earth will destroy us long before we can destroy it. It survived meteor that caused the extinction of dinosaurs, so I’m sure it can handle anything we throw at it. We might not be able to handle what it throws back though.[/quote]Lol. What I mean when I say destroy the earth is destroy the habitat that sustains us. Lol.
Indeed, the “Earth” won’t exist without us, as the word earth, it’s a human word, and without humans, whatever is here will have no one to call it “earth”. It will be a nameless rock. No not even a nameless rock, as the very concept of anything being named and unnamed will disappear with us. So no, the “earth” cannot survive without us.
Lol.
Without language, I’m not sure anything knowable to us can exist. See, e.g., genesis 1.
