  • The workers, who are paid hourly, were told they could either take paid time off or come in for cleaning and training but would not be working on the production line.

    That wording is ambiguous, but given the alternative is "come in and do cleaning" my guess is "take paid time off" means workers have to burn their own vacation time if they don't want to lose money. Otherwise, who in their right mind would volunteer to work if the company is offering paid furlough?

  • And they also decided "do no work on the Sabbath" also meant "don't push the buttons on the microwave."

    Or that if you circle your city with a wire, that counts as your city limits for purposes of traveling on the Sabbath.

    Point is, rabbinical law has always been about finding the loopholes because they consider it a mark of godliness.

  • Here's the problem.

    Strip Trump and MAGA from the GOP, and what are you left with?

    The same shit-ass party that brought us Trump, only less emboldened.

    They still want tax cuts for billionaires, no universal health care, no workers rights, no mention about climate change, no rights for LGBTQ people, no women's rights, no non-white people in America.

    Etc.

    The only difference between "the party of Reagan" and MAGA is that under Reagan the GOP was much quieter about being assholes.

    You know how the US and the USSR were allied against Germany, but the second WWII was over they started pointing their guns at each other? That's where I feel like we're at now with "center-right" Republicans like Walsh. Sure, I'll take the help of anyone who recognizes that Trump is a threat to democracy and the ideals of the US, but the second that's dealt with there's gonna be problems.

  • Hey, this is kinda like 2009 when the GOP fought for months to delay Al Franken being seated in the Senate to keep the Dems from having the supermajority Americans voted for. And the whole reason they did so was because Mitch knew that Ted Kennedy was dying so they were trying to run out the clock.

  • On his way out, he can take Nutlick with him as well, fucking piece of shit that he is.

    Anyone who wants to slave people and their children and their grandchildren to factory work, but doesn't volunteer himself or his children or his grandchildren, can shut the biggest fuck it's possible to up.
