    I work in grocery. I have not gotten sick. My fellow employees have not gotten sick. If the virus were even remotely as contagious as its being presented as, why haven’t entire store staffs who come into contact with hundreds of people per day, thousands per week, all falling ill in mass nationwide?

    Just love the self congratulation Starbucks is giving itself for this.

    Oh, and its just in the USA. Canadian employees can still come in to work sick, or go fuck themselves
    Bare minimum is about right. Sure there are people who lie about being sick, but for every one of those there are people like me who go to work sick because we can't afford to call in. What a country.

    I'm asking myself the same question. You said self congratulation as if Starbucks was the one tweeting (or boasting) about their tweet.

    It's a CNN tweet. Where is the Twitter self-dick sucking?

    My company has a good vacation plan, but you have to use those days for "sick leave" as well, which I've always considered to be stupid. In Canada, it's some national law that they have to provide sick leave, so it'll be easy to implement if they ever get around to it.

    They introduced legislation in January of 2018 saying that all employees are guaranteed 2 paid sick days a year, as well as 10 unpaid with no questions asked.

    Then about 2 months later they took that away.

    I am a store manager for a very large company, and I dont have a single sick day.

    Agreed, Peng.

    Corporate America really needs to be seen with more compassion. Poor, misunderstood billionaires.

    Oh man, I cannot WAIT for the shitstorm that's going to rain down on Amber Heard.

    I really hope people offer some forgiveness to Depp.

    I think a lot of people are still in denial over her being the abuser.

    Now there are actual recordings of her admitting to hitting him and starting physical confrontations, then berating him when he tried to get out of the situations by either leaving or calling for help.

    She is freaking evil.

    You guys are posting weird lately. Sure it's possible.

    The question you should be asking is it probable?

    Considering the video of him on wine drunk rant that came out a year or two ago, yeah, its probable.

    They've already done it six times since 2006.
    Just because...
    The Fabelmans (Steven Spielberg, 2022) mild
    Petite maman (Céline Sciamma, 2021) mild
    The Banshees of Inisherin (Martin McDonagh, 2022) mild

    The last book I read was...
    The Complete Short Stories by Mark Twain
