I love what I do and the pay is more than fair for my skills.

However, the overall atmosphere and morale at the company as of late is not good.

That and they have changed the bonus structure 3 times in the last 4 years.

Regardless of their reasoning, its evident they did not like the company hitting its goals and having to pay out to us lowly salary folks at the bottom keeping the lights on.

Better believe C levels get theirs every year.

The one I always remember in my hometown growing up was Kyle Clinkscales.

They drained several lakes near where I grew up and even had someone implicate the guy the lived next to our property.

Though they found the body eventually, it never made sense where it was because people drove over that place for years and somehow never saw the car.

"The cold case of Kyle Clinkscales, a 22-year-old Auburn University student from LaGrange, Georgia, was officially closed in April 2024 after his skeletal remains were identified. Clinkscales disappeared on January 27, 1976, after leaving a bar to drive back to college; his 1974 Ford Pinto was found submerged in an Alabama creek in December 2021 with his wallet and bones inside.

Although DNA testing in February 2023 confirmed the remains belonged to Clinkscales, the Georgia Bureau of Investigation medical examiner ruled the manner of death as "undetermined" due to inconclusive autopsy results. The case remains closed unless new information surfaces, leaving the question of whether he was murdered or died in an accident unresolved."

$500 on a $5 Jumbo Bucks

I get screwed over every year in taxes.

Trumps Big Beutiful BS bill doubled what I normally have to pay.

The US Govt ponzi scheme continues to screw over the working class.

Just glad I get to help fund war overseas in 3rd world countries and help the democrats study gay animal habits ir whatever it is they do.

For me, its the gay slurs and making fun of disabled folks.

Yeah, not something im proud to admit, but I was one of those kids in High School you hope your son never made friends with or daughter would date.

Still regret that person I was, but if social media was around, I would be considered non-hireable.

Turned my life around after meeting my wife, but im just glad those years weren't recorded on any form of media.

He's a dirty pirate hooker

Hey, I voted for Trump, but these stupid little hissy fits he throws when he doesnt get his way piss me off.

These new tariffs are no different.

Two orders from overseas that I am expecting this week have now been returned back because, on a $220 order, UPS says I now owe them $110 for "Customs and Import Fees" and the other is almost the same as the package value itself.

And these orders were sent by family members BEFORE he imposed the new global tariffs.

A lot can still be learned from that great struggle of our nations history:

Patrick Cleburne - Jan 2. 1864 proposal to the Army of the Tennessee:

"......It means that the history of this heroic struggle will be written by the enemy; that our youth will be trained by Northern school teachers; will learn from Northern school books their version of the war; will be impressed by all the influences of history and education to regard our gallant dead as traitors, our maimed veterans as fit objects for derision..."

"It is said slavery is all we are fighting for, and if we give it up we give up all. Even if this were true, which we deny, slavery is not all our enemies are fighting for. It is merely the pretense to establish sectional superiority and a more centralized form of government, and to deprive us of our rights and liberties."

Then you have what I think sums up the war as a whole since the Confederacy was never a united front:

William T. Sherman:

"Southern men make good soldiers, but lousy confederates."

I dont know why, but Curling to me is my favorite event to watch.

I completely understand why it would be boring to some (like watching Golf, Nascar, Chess, etc.) but its interesting as hell to me.

Makes me think that this "Shuffleboard on Ice" had to be one those things invented cause a mother told their kids "Go find some sticks and rocks and figure it out" to get their kids out of the house back in the day.

I've been boycotting the NFL since their entire shtick has become "White ppl bad, brown ppl oppressed"

Can't tell you the last time I've watched a game in the last 7 or 8 years including the Super Bowl

The commercials suck, the league sucks, and the commissioner is a closeted self hating white homo.

Yep and one i still stand by
