One of my old hiring managers once said it's better to use sites like Indeed and Glassdoor like a phonebook, since 4 out of 5 jobs redirect you to the company's application page anyway. Find job, search company, and either go to their website or call em

Employee: I'd like to use my PTO
Boss: No
Employee: (goes on vacation anyway)
Boss's best friend news:
kill a couple thousand politicians, but try to spare any under the age of 45. I may or may not agree with their views, but at least they'll be a part of the future they're tryna make.
torture some billionaires to gain access to their company payroll, so I can cut their CEOs pay and raise their entry-level workers' pay. Hell, I'll raise the payrates of everyone under them, they all deserve it more than a CEO.
I'd prolly only have enough time to do that to one company tho, so I'd probably choose Amazon as priority one.
Missed an opportunity to call it Johnny Depth
aside from what everyone else said, they killed the beloved Unreal Tournament series, which is a huge sour spot for older gamers who fondly remember those. Then there's the excessive microtransaction demand inside Fortnite, a game with a large playerbase under the age of 18. That alone led to two major lawsuits that they both lost
I never realized how lonely left-handed people are /s
12ft.io
if you see an article online but it asks for a subscription before you can read it, you can put the webpage of that article in 12ft.io and it'll give you a version you can read without such guards. The person who made it says there's a special code in those sites that doesn't block the article for search engines, as doing so would cause the google/bing/etc to block that result. So they just found that code and put it in a webpage for you
aside from the obvious "rich people exploiting the environment with their hippy party that costs $200 for their cheapest tickets," I saw a video online that brought up a good point that I never considered. The cost of lumber has increased exponentially in the past 3 years alone, jumping to nearly $1700 per 1000 feet at its peak in 2021, but staying between $400 and $600 per 1000 feet in recent months (still high compared to say 10 years ago.) And these people are buying tens of thousands of feet of lumber solely to burn it away in the middle of nowhere where there's little vegetation to absorb the excess CO2 waste. That, along with the climate change protesters being police brutalized just before the event, really puts a sour taste in people's mouths. Especially in a time where "once in a lifetime" weather events seem to be back-to-back.
