True, true.

Edit: Just read your entire post history and ran a background check on you while I was at it. Had a look at your recent bank transactions through some clever social engineering as well just to be thorough. Tsk tsk tsk, you've said some questionable things here and there haven't you? -100 social credit points.

Worst part is someone was in that branch as she was being hired. And instead of sticking around to help teach her for a couple weeks(took me 4) he took his retirement early and was gone. So she just learns how to do a million systems over scratchy laggy teams meetings

Yep. Luckily I only have myself to worry about, but what about child, pet, and elder care? When we initially returned to office, they promised a 30 day notice and followed through on that. Really surprised this time.

I have had a deal with my landlord to walk his dog every day for lunch and he gives me $10, and with going into the office more he’s probably just going to hire a dog sitter again and I’m fucked having to pay full rent again. Hell even on the two days I went in a week I at least considered that paying for my parking. Cause yinzer god forbid a billion dollar company provide us a deal on parking

> George Washington has used "Colonials" since 1926. The Associated Press reported that a special committee looked into the name's history and delivered a report to the school president in March 2021.

> According to an online statement from George Washington University, the committee determined that supporters of "Colonials" view it as referring to "those who lived in the American colonies, especially those who fought for independence and democracy," while opponents see the term as referring to "colonizers who stole land and resources from indigenous groups, killed or exiled Native peoples and introduced slavery into the colonies."

> George Washington will keep using "Colonials" until a new name is introduced. That is expected by the 2023-24 academic year.

> "A moniker must unify our community, draw people together and serve as a source of pride," said Grace Speights, chair of the university's Board of Trustees. "We look forward to the next steps in an inclusive process to identify a moniker that fulfills this aspiration."

So they're going to change it to be on the safe side. I still think it's a bit of a stretch but if the cost is just changing the nickname I guess they think why not.

My department is going to have that for one person on our team. She doesn’t know anyone else in the whole building. I understand why she’s so frustrated and already looking to get out
