Reply to comment by FastWalkingShortGuy in Adam Sandler wins the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor by ZylonBane
No hate, just not much memory of thinking he's particularly funny. "You can do it!" stuck with me, but that's about it.
I do appreciate that he keeps putting Jennifer Aniston in a bathing suit... for that alone I'm sure Mark Twain would give him a prize.

What... were they judging solely on the amount of material produced? 'Cause I'll give him that... he produces a lot of material.

Shouldn't someone who can make a decision need to have that argument?
So you're telling me that not only does HR not need to exist but perhaps my boss or his boss shouldn't have a job as well.

> One of the many purposes of HR is to have someone between the person recieving the news and the decision maker.
That hilarious explanation makes HR sound even more useless than I thought in the first place.
So, I literally can't expand my department because the company hired people to be between me and my boss to give me the news he wouldn't have to give me if we didn't have all these HR people?
Not really showing me the value of HR there.

Sounds about right.
HR is nothing more than an industry to promote itself.

"My 3 man IT department isn't big enough to keep up with our expanding company."
"The company just doesn't have the money to expand your department." Says the 6 person HR department.

Ah... knew it was one of those. So Yojimbo... or as most people know it A Fist Full of Dollars.

Literally the opening scene of The Seven Samurai IIRC. Well... one of Kirosawa's films anyway... or maybe just a Mifune film.

Reply to Majority of drivers say aggressive cyclists threaten their safety – poll by Hall_C137
Share the road... most bikers think this means "I'll do whatever stupid, illegal, inconsiderate, or dangerous shit I want while putting my life in your hands expecting you to see me, know what I'm doing, and not run my ass down."
Like I said back in the days I used to drive forklifts for a living... it doesn't much matter what the rules of driving a forklift safely are if you have a fork sticking through your chest... don't make your safety my responsibility.
