/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!
Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'
~ **8. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

"make it no."
I'll take "Things I want printed on my coffee mug" for $100, Alex.
Color changing, when full it says "make it so" when empty "make it no"
The reverse says "coffee, black". Or maybe just a picture of the nebula
It would have been an implied "no" because I wouldn't have even answered the phone.
This, definitely
MFW they don't even bother asking anymore, having just made it "expected":-|
This was me in previous jobs. I was on call 24/7 with no breaks for like 6 months. I was getting paged in the middle of the night 3 to 4 nights a week. It came closer to killing me. Subsequent jobs I have not allowed that. I may be lucky it's worked out for me since.
Damn that's horrible - yeah definitely take care of yourself, which I say in part bc we love seeing your content here, but for many other reasons as well! ☺️
Thank you. My current job is pretty chill now. I've also learned to better self advocate, which was learned too late in life
I still haven't learned that balance yet, so kudos for your bravery to be willing to learn new things:-).
Keep trying. Self advocating is important, but growing up, I (and probably you) were taught that loyalty to company, hard work, and blending in was ah that mattered and that you would be taken care of. That's all BS, but it's hard to break that thought process. It takes time, and confidence (which is also very hard).
Trek can be a bit utopian
I mean... As a post yesterday shows us, only a little bit:-)
I pretty much work every weekend now as a freelancer, but they can’t have my Tuesday night D&D!
Can someone explain how this works in the US? If my work said this to me I’d feel totally comfortable saying no, and if I did come in I’d charge for transport and get double time.
Well, in this particular instance, they asked on Wednesday to make up for time lost last week when I had to deal with a family emergency. So, I can understand that request. Otherwise, if a full-time employee is under by X hours, then they can usually get away with the request. Asking beyond that is overtime.
That episode is one of my favorite episodes of SNW ever.
Funny as hell... and then that emotional gut punch.
