He only had 7 months left in his two year term. You can't tell me the "job opportunity" he left for is the real reason.
Did he finally get pushed beyond the limit after being moved to the basement? Did Republicans REALLY make his job so hard that he quit before the end of the year?
In my heart of hearts, I wish there was a job board in this sub. Just got off a call with a wonderful new connection that had DMed me and I am hoping more of us can get connected in this same way.
Construction and warehouse jobs don't have to be our only option!
If you have an idea or an opening, please post it here!
Just a general PSA and from experience - while lawyer fees feel like they aren't worth it, the right lawyer is FOR SURE worth it. I paid what I thought was a crazy amount for an attorney but it gave me an unsecured bond, probation, and unsupervised probation rather quick with expulsion within a year. If anyone has specific questions, PLEASE message me. Here to help!
Just an FYI for the group and the SLIM hope that corporate pays attention:
Totally sucks. Modern day slaves while sharing a break room with a white boys club sales team.
Watch every episode back and you will see her adding onto the fire to make it burn:
Didn't you say this?
Weren't you mad about this?
She is the one that initiated the hot cheeto comment in the limo. DAMN!
She really DID get an internship! Shout out, Lola! ) (Shout out, Shane!)
Who else is FREAKING OUT EXCITED to see the show? Based on what I've heard, we will be hearing all about the SXM show, including what happened with Annie (which I don't really care about, but tells me that the show will be talked about).
White collar crime idiot here looking for work. I am on unsupervised probation with an expungement coming in February 2027. Anyone know of anything locally or remote that might hire me? (Lowe's, HomeDepot, DoorDash, etc. said no thank you since it is an embezzlement case.)

I was hired by Frito-Lay warehouse recently. The recruiter told me it was hourly, expect 40 hours a week with the opportunity for overtime. "The opportunity for overtime" is the key phrase here.
I was also told what days I had off per week, no problem. I had a 6 am start time for the other 5 days a week. Again, no problem. So, I made a mental schedule that I would be working 6am - 2/3 pm or so.
I ended up being asked to come in at 5 am. I also had NO IDEA when I would be leaving for the day so I couldn't make any appointments/plans/family obligations. I never left before 3 pm. Here's why:
It is a volume-based business. You come in and have a certain about of totes/boxes/orders you have to fill before you can leave. And every day, they ramp up the amount you have to do. You have 90 days to be fully ramped up or you are put on probation. So here is the kicker:
If you go too fast, you don't get enough hours. If you go too slow, sure, you get time and a half for overtime, but you don't hit your "items per hour goal" that would put you on probation.
For instance: I was picking tote orders...orders for gas stations, dollar generals, etc. That might mean three jars of dips, a box of beef jerky, etc. My goal the first week (after only three days of working in the warehouse) was 550 totes for the day. The other important metric I had to hit was 77 totes per hour. Full ramp up for other employees was about 800 totes for the day.
So, that's more than one tote per minute. For ten hours. And I was going as fast as I physically could.
I saw the same thing with the bulk pickers (Sam's Club, BJs, Costco, etc.) and the batch pickers (grocery stores, etc.). They are on forklifts and tuggers and are literally speed driving and walking around the warehouse for ten hours to hit their goals.
And corporate asks for faster and faster speeds. This is why they pay more than other warehouse jobs. It was not worth it for me.
The people I worked with were great, but no one has time to interact. It was headphones in, head down, move as fast as you can and hope you can do the minimum of what they want so you don't get fired.
Needless to say, I quit.
Can we talk more about the Angela vs. Pinky dinner explosion? Talk about things escalating quickly! Which camp are you and why? I can see both sides but I don't understand how the word "bothered" created such an explosion.
Ok team...I am reaching the end of my new listens of our favorite XM show. What other podcasts can you recommend? I tried to listen to Watch What Crappens and I couldn't stand it...what else do you like?
Ideas about what might resuscitate our show? We know Jax was toxic but the drama he brought made it worthwhile.
Even the addition of crowd favorites La La and Schwartz aren’t doing it.
Is the Valley in itself just this dull?
What in the HELL does a lack of a glam squad mean you are not showing up to a dinner to film? (Looking at you K!)
Also - this is your first season. Have a seat.
I have just navigated the job market in the last few months. I have a white collar crime charge that will be expunged in a year, but I was encouraged to apply to these "second change employers" via sites like honestjobs.com . Here is the honest truth:
Over and over again I heard the "we are considering adverse action...please send us more information on your charges..."
I also got a job offer from a small business in our area, but I was afraid that someone there would Google me and see my charges.
Hope this helps. It seems like some of these national websites like honestjobs.com are trying to help, but it is a lot of false hope and time to apply and be let down.
Of recent memory, it was when Jamison yelled "I AM DOING THE BEST I CAN!" and Jeff said "Uh-oh! Ginger snapped!"
Wondering who makes you laugh the most...I have a few!
Who am I missing?
Who heard this? And who agrees that Amanda Francis from Beverly Hills Housewives is making money off of teaching people how to make money? I love that connection!
And do you wonder...don't the police have something BETTER to do?
