Company exists to make money. In other news, water is wet. More at 5.

And if you force me to eat more fiber, I’ll be the one making more methane emissions. I do love me some beans, but I can only take so much!

Sir, this is a Wendy’s.

And not even a particularly great city builder at that.

Maybe it’s just because I live in Texas and it’s 80 degrees outside in February, but I pretty much exclusively use that sheet. Blanket only ever covers my feet.

And every candidate that isn’t picture perfect that they deny a position to is that hour gone to complete waste.

I find it amazing how few companies don’t even give people a chance. I’m tech-inclined, but the only thing I have to my name is a Comptia A+ cert. However, I’ve also done a lot of things that are well beyond that skill set in a multitude of ways, and I also learn quite quickly. It’s tough to put ‘Hey, I managed a MYSQL database for a modded Minecraft server and I set everything up myself.’ on a resume. Nobody even bothers to read that because it mentions Minecraft, never mind the amount of actual work it takes to run a public-facing server like that with hundreds of active players logged in at once. It certainly isn’t ’just playing a video game’.

Meanwhile most people can’t afford the payments or even get a car loan in the first place, much less cough up thousands for a new car.

Maybe the solution is to instead re-educate everyone on how to drive in such a manner as to consider the traffic behind them.

The entire industry employs a great number of people. It’s not so simple to just ban all fossil fuels (even if it is what we need to do) and leave millions out of work. Think of how many industries rely on fossil fuels as well, just to move things or people around. All those jobs go bye-bye overnight too.

I’m not saying we shouldn’t ban fossil fuels, but the fallout from doing so needs to be addressed before it becomes a problem in the first place.

Oh, they’ll have a job in prison, too. They just won’t get paid to do it.
