This did in fact blow my mind!

Dumb question: where do you store your eggs now, if not the fridge? My American mind is reeling.

I went cold turkey with the help of Wellbutrin. Best of luck!

This was really on me, but I once ate yogurt that was well past its expiration date and ended up with hives everywhere.

I own a small business and have had great luck hiring people from small liberal arts colleges with degrees like philosophy, history, humanities, etc. These folks are smart and with the right training can do anything. Even better if they have worked fast food in the past (weird, right?). MBA graduates are expensive but require the same training and support - so I personally won't hire from that pool. Although I have an MBA because it was a box I had to check for a previous role. I got the cheapest one possible and have no regrets.

Yes, but I'm lazy as shit and often need pressure to do anything beyond scrolling through Lemmy. 😉

I worked at a place that rolled out employee ownership after they were like 250 people. If you can't offer ownership right away, you can offer a decent profit share (requires some amount of financial transparency to help communicate the value to the employee).

WinCo has an awesome success story using the employee owned model.

I long for a gap in my employment history...

I used rigamarole in an email to a colleague today. And I regularly use kerfuffle.

 
 

My son (10 yo) has a few very strong interests that he talks about pretty much nonstop. We haven't discouraged any kind of talking because he was quite delayed. However it has come to my attention that his narrow focus on these topics can annoy his peers at school. I don't want him to feel ashamed about his interests, but I also don't want him to be ostracized at school. I'd really appreciate any thoughts this group may have on how to handle (or not) this situation. TIA!
