They’re just preying on the vulnerable from both sides, you have to be either desperate or a complete ghoul to accept that kind of “work”. If I wasn’t in dire need of money at the time I could have been a lot more selective about the jobs I pursued

Chapotraphouse@hexbear.net•This job posting.English
19·21 小时前Reminds me of the too-good-to-be-true job I applied for years ago. I was young and dumb(er) and desperate for a job. I came across a place that was hiring for a position selling water filters or some shit. They advertised a very good wage & during the interview revealed the commission bait & switch (red flag #1). The dude who interviewed me had the stereotypical sleazy sales guy vibe (red flag #2) and he spent a decent chunk of the “training” bragging about how much fun he had partying when he was in our shoes. Then when he wasn’t doing that he was basically telling us we’d be preying on the elderly since they’re lonely and easier to hoodwink (red flag #3).
I left for lunch and never went back. The job I eventually did get fucking sucked (long hours, overnight, mind-numbingly boring) but at least I wasn’t selling my soul while scamming lonely people
I’m pretty sure literally every veteran, including every single one in elected office, has jerked off in a port-a-shitter

This really should be an emoji

Edit: Looks like the shooters were 17 & 19, preliminary reports are saying they killed themselves

6·4 天前I’m the same, I can’t stand cooked carrots, I’ve tried, I just can’t. And it’s not a case of me just having them poorly prepared growing up like brussel sprouts (love those delicious little guys roasted or fried), I’ve tried them many different ways and I just can’t stand them.
But simmer them in some stock with potatoes, celery, seasonings and I’ll eat cooked carrots every day of the week

16·5 天前Bad vision won’t stop her from being used as cannon fodder, especially since she’ll be a foreign mercenary. She has to understand that she will be harmed and there is a very high chance she will be killed.
In the case of the guy from my parents church I highly suspect he was press ganged once in Ukraine, I don’t think people, foreign mercs especially, get much choice in the matter once they’re there.

13·5 天前Good luck talking her out of it. Even if she can ignore/excuse all the Nazi shit Ukraine is involved in (real
energy) volunteering to go to Ukraine is just a long-form suicide. Whatever illusions/misconceptions she’s under will be brutally swept away once she’s in the country.Anecdotally someone from my parents church went to Ukraine to volunteer as a paramedic behind the lines. He was dead about a month later, his parents never received any kind of explanation. I don’t think his body was ever returned. I don’t know if he lied to his parents about being “behind the lines” or if he was pressganged once he got their but either way he didn’t last long.

I saw an ad today while watching the Gagarin Cup finals (
