Ugh, Google+ was so much better than Facebook. The whole circles concept was a game changer for social media that no one else has really adopted in a meaningful way. Half the reason millennials began to leave Facebook was not wanting their parents seeing what they're posting, so being able to decide which group can see a particular post was an awesome idea.

Sadly it just never got the adoption

They're trying to avoid paying taxes by recreating the absurd Hollywood style accounting, but things don't quite work like that.

Why are you telling them why you're taking off? Most employers have a set amount of vacation/sick time as part of their compensation package. You own that time. They don't need to know why you're using it.

Some stupid ideas should just be kept to yourself.

You're looking at it all wrong.

You're letting yourself get pushed around. The parents have their priorities figured out. They know work isn't their life. You should stop trying to narc on other people and stand up for your own self.

Having kids you have absolutely unbreakable obligations. Work shit can wait. You'll learn that eventually.

Reddit also thinks appealing a ridiculous van is harassment, so not exactly the brightest bulbs over there.

My toddler had a respiratory issue several days before Christmas. Hospitalized for a few days. Released a few days before Christmas. We got home. Pipes froze that very day, for several days. So no water in the house. We were supposed to travel, but due to the hospital and weather were stuck home, so we had to scramble to get a few Xmas things together for the kids. Luckily midway through Xmas, the pipes finally thawed - Christmas miracle, we could shower.

The point is, there's a lot of movies worth watching once, and never again...which is where streaming comes in.

That doesn't fix it. No.

Disconnecting the country from it doesn't mean their government won't have access...

Sites like these are why amazon has been using more coupons at check out instead of straight discounts. Messes with the price tracking
