I’m not an employer but ok.

I own a paperback copy and I can’t think of a reason a hardcover would be better aside from durability.

Well, maybe you should go fix those problems. You know, instead of whining that you have to look at your phone occasionally when you already spend your precious time arguing with me on Lemmy.

I think there is a difference between being on call and being expected to text your boss sometimes. You could literally just check your phone once a day at the same time and it would be fine. Maybe they should throw you a dime for that few seconds of grueling labor, but I don’t really give a shit.

Because everything important happens during every employees working hours, and it is inconceivable that a plan could change for any reason while you aren’t clocked in.

If you want work to get done you have to be coordinated. Just text back, its not that fucking hard.

I would agree that your boss shouldn’t expect you to answer at all hours of the day or even remotely quickly, but if you literally never answer anything then I have very little sympathy for you when you get fired.

No, sometimes you just need to tell an employee something, and then have them verify they understand the information. In my opinion that does not qualify as work.

I’m sorry but I don’t think its that crazy to want your employees to communicate with you outside of working hours.

Honestly there are a lot of CEOs that could get away with that.

Because people receiving the death penalty theoretically did something wrong, and fetuses did not. I’m neither against abortion nor pro death penalty, and I don’t really see a contradiction there.

Always is a real stretch, but I get your point. The reason is that being angry is easier than being happy.

You don’t try to assassinate people for altruistic reasons, and I have no ancestors that killed Spaniards on the 4th of July.

Who’s to say he didn’t just want to die and take someone important out with him. In the mental state he was in at the time, he may not have even cared about politics.

Put it in the microwave and then take it out when it starts popping slowly. I’ve never met anyone else that does that for microwave popcorn and it works perfectly fine.

Wood is definitely better than nothing, but I don’t really see a situation in which this thing would need protection against small arms anyway. Unless something has already gone horribly wrong, those small arms are a significant distance from your artillery. At that range, they are already effectively worthless because their lack of rifling makes them horribly inaccurate.

If I had to guess, you would mainly be worried about union sharpshooters (maybe) and artillery. At that point the only real advantage of the wood is the obstruction of sight.

Wood still wasn’t strong enough to sustain a lot of fire even from those rifles. The confederacy just didn’t have enough iron.
