Yeah - they’re trying REALLY hard to not argue the merits because it’s extremely clear to anyone that what they’re doing is illegal, so they’re trying to make it a civil suit issue.

The next step after that is to claim Sovereign Immunity to keep civil suits from being heard.

And then they’ll have their legal justification for disappearing US Citizens without due process.

This is the case that seems the most clear out of any in the past few years.

The text of the amendment isn’t murky at all.

“All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.”

There’s no way to interpret that being born in the US doesn’t convey citizenship.

It was also 100% legal to kill someone trying to be a king.

Yeah, we had one as a prop in the 90s that had orange foil inside and a mesh in front, so when it moved around the fire looked alive.

And you’d load it with flour and blow through it to make a pretty convincing puff of smoke.

That last part has never been a part of the HBO business model.

I hold a weekly project review/coordination meeting via Teams where we discuss all our project statuses, due dates, etc with the relevant team members, make new assignments, etc. And while our new offices are being built I’m exiled to the conference room instead of my desk so that my talking doesn’t annoy people who aren’t in the meeting.

Everything is being tracked on a spreadsheet, and I’m sharing my screen while updating everything and I’m having to live-type in front of 20 people and my shitty laptop keyboard.

It’s the worst.

That’s honestly a more realistic prospect than bringing back American manufacturing.

Those are 2 excellent reasons to hate it.

In ER because I thought I was having a heart attack, and it looks like it was a panic attack instead.

Benzos are nice BTW. I can see why the docs can’t and shouldn’t prescribe them for regular use.

We’ve learned enough about Germans in the last few days on Lemmy.

So instead, they’ll make the meds more expensive for ending who isn’t the federal government.

That’s why Right Starman gets it.

Left Starman didn’t actually reveal PII. He tricked Right Starman into doing it.

I don’t think I’d get along with me.

If you ever want to see if you’re on the right side of history, just look at your words:

“Illegal people” is a vile concept.

Once again, you’re wrong about many, many things.

Filing for unemployment costs nothing. When the company tries to deny the claim, you can appeal that for free, the company is required to provide evidence, and they frequently lose.

Wrongful termination is an entirely different thing than termination without cause and it’s clear that you don’t know that. This is why you need to shut the fuck up and stop telling people to give up when you don’t know what you’re talking about at all.

Not really. I used to work in management for a major outdoors retail chain and we had employees we desperately wanted to fire because they were lazy and toxic rowards other staff and customers, but since they showed up on time and in uniform corporate wouldn’t let us do it because they didn’t want to pay unemployment.

No, that’s not how it works in PA or any state.

You’re incorrect regarding unemployment eligibility as it relates to at-will employment status, and since you don’t know what you’re talking about you need to shut the fuck up before you discourage people from even attempting to pursue their rights when they lose their job.

That’s simply not true.

If you’re laid off they have to pay unemployment. If you aren’t performing well they have to show records proving it when you file unemployment and they try to deny the claim.

Please don’t talk about topics on which you’re clearly uninformed, because the belief that someon3 can be fired for anything with no recourse keeps people from filing for unemployment when they’re 100% eligible.

All “at will” means is that they can fire you for any reason or no reason. They may still be required to pay unemployment, but they don’t have to keep you on staff.

“At will” isn’t as magical as people think.

If you terminate an employee without documented cause, you still have to pay them unemployment.

With my old brother inkjet, it would say it was out of ink in like 2 weeks because it used an optical sensor on the printer looking through a window on the ink cartridge at aimed at a floating piece of black plastic in the tank that would drop when the ink level went down.

The thing is, the sponge in the cartridge would soak up the ink and cause the floater to drop when there was still like 90% of the ink left.

So the key was to just put some black electrical tape over the window on the cartridge and keep using it until it actually stopped printing that color.
