Thanks, that's what I figured since my experience has been have a job or be homeless and it really is my ass onto the street as soon as there is only small unemployment checks.

It's legal here in Oregon. Only, most places will tell you that you can't smoke on the property. And you're not supposed to smoke it outside in public either.

So it's legal to smoke in private outside only. And everyone just smokes inside anyways cause it's fucking dumb how specific that is.

If you don’t pay taxes, you’re arrested

what? Depends on the numbers I think.

I get this sucks but you can quit your job and walk away from your employer, theoretically.

Yeah and be homeless.

And I don't participate in government shit unless I have to like taxes cause they'll come for me if I don't pay for them kind of thing.

yeah I use to work at a place that had "CSAT" I don't remember what it stands for but a lot of companies use it and some use it more than others.

Basically it's the same but usually those surveys provide open ended comments where the customers can rip you a new one if they feel like they didn't get what they wanted. You could be telling a customer no based on policy, and then a manage will see the bad review and use that to give you a talking to about work improvement.

It's so incredibly backwards.

I agree but that doesn't really clear up what I was trying to understand?

I just imagine you as like a stiff Japanese business man and you're constantly holding up a katana, waiting to cut someone's head off for a petty crime.

[–] cubedsteaks@lemmy.today 1 points 1 year ago

Nah, they won't do it anymore.

[–] cubedsteaks@lemmy.today 2 points 1 year ago

And your example of people “ending up on the streets” is such a fucking edge case.

It's really not. See Portland, Oregon. It's pretty much over run with homeless people at this point.

Right? I'm trying to figure out how I could be a tankie but also in the US...

[–] cubedsteaks@lemmy.today 3 points 1 year ago

sure, just sign up to like 10 credit cards, max them out getting good reliable camping equipment, and take a large loan out for one of those survival vans and flea the country

This must be the same thought process of the people I see living in camping vans and tents down the street from me.

The government is legally authorized to separate you from your possessions, your freedom, and even your life in extremis. Your boss can’t do any of that and if they try the government should stop them.

there was just a work email put out where I work about how employees shouldn't be going to the bathroom super often and if they are in the bathroom they should only be doing bathroom things.

I can't report them for that but it is fucking extreme and dehumanizing. To be policed in the bathroom. Because company time is more important than bodily functions. Or whatever other reason someone might be in the bathroom.
