There’s this third party hotline we use to call in so it’s kind of separated in that they may not know our actual policy. Regardless anyone that has personal time knows what it’s for.

I called to use a personal day. “Hi I’m calling off for my shift tomorrow. I want to use a personal holiday.”

“Ok, why are you calling off?”

“Because I’m using a personal holiday. I have 30 hours left I want to use 10 tomorrow please.”

“Ok I have you for 10 hours personal holiday I just need a reason”

“I don’t need to provide a reason. It’s a personal holiday. As long as it’s no less than 8 hours before my shift, I just tell you guys I want to use a personal holiday. I don’t have to provide a reason.”

“So you don’t want to provide a reason?”

“No, thank you.”

That was basically the end of the conversation but I was just like “holy fuck lady please just stop” at the end. No one gives reasons for vacation days and personal holidays. Sick days ( if you’re lucky enough to have sick time) are implied. Even if I called off, didn’t have time to use and ate points, are you going to give me less points if I provide a reason? No. We’re not going to do that. We’re just being fucking nosey.

The CEO and now chairman of McDonald’s was paid $19.2 million last year in salary, bonuses and stock, according to federal securities filings.

He was paid a base salary of $1.4 million

Being friendly and just going on his base salary and not all the other piles of money tossed his way, in plebe terms, he makes $673/hour.

I don’t know how to edit the main post on mobile so I’ll just add this comment. The message I typed in the screenshot populates in a “pop up bar”. The message no longer gets entered where you think it should go and it looks like shit and takes up extra screen space for no reason. I really dislike this change.

No fine for Perdue or Seaboard Triumph Foods though even though the kids were even allowed in the plants. How could we possibly hold them liable for vetting outside contractors.

how about fucking autopilot too instead of having to find a registry to disable it.

Edit: I’m dumb and don’t know what I was even being mad at. I should have said copilot, that’s what I actually meant. I didn’t realize autopilot was a thing.

Additionally, if your bucket handle breaks, you need third party software and hardware to create a matching digital signature to replace the handle.

just a heads up for anyone deciding to make their own cables, make sure you buy pass through rj45 ends or it becomes substantially more annoying to make a successful crimp. with pass through you can prep your cable and it doesn’t matter how long you make the strands you’re working with because you cut the excess off, with non-pass through you have to cut them to a specific size and if it’s too long when they bottom out, your conductors will stick out making your crimp weaker inviting poor connection issues later in the cable’s life.

thank you for tuning in for this controls tech tip
