He wasn't "caught red handed" he was caught with a preponderance of evidence implicating him.

Just use them.

I know you want everything to perfectly make sense, but your players are there for a good time. Don't worry about minor details, just do cool stuff.

I used to go to a lot of concerts, but after COVID they got too expensive. $100 is insane for a ticket. $900 is almost rent. Who is her target audience?

The real victim of domestic abuse: guys who are so narcissistic that they associate everything with the fact they don't have a girlfriend.

Fear and hunger.

It has enemies that are tougher than they should be. You are just a small part of the story. It's pretty good.

Benedictine eggs?

Searching just comes up with eggs Benedict.

I was surprised by how good season one was. Season two was great fun. I hated season three.

I feel they tried too hard to make serious points and failed at telling good stories. They wanted to have big thoughts, but just weren't entertaining.

Outside of school I don't think I've ever had to convert feet to miles or yards to miles.

but in the context of this post, let’s not be ridiculous

It says a pay raise, not new pay bracket. A 10% raise is substantial, and likely not enough to keep someone. The number one reason people leave a job is their direct supervisor.

To be absolutely clear a ping pong table won't make you stay with a job. A work place that's more relaxed and a boss that doesn't yell at you for taking 5? Maybe a workplace where you enjoy spending time with your coworkers? That'll do it. The idea is HR can to help nudge towards type of change It doesn't work and is stupid, but that's the thinking.

And there are times a small raise will keep an employee, there are times more responsibilities will keep an employee. This is a poor question in general.

Think of the last job you quit. Would a 5% raise change anything?

A ping pong table is an asinine thing to give, but the point of "more money doesn't make you stay" has been proven by many studies.

When you quit a job because it doesn't pay enough it's not a matter of a small raise, it's a normally a big jump in pay. Until you get to substantial raises, like 10-20k a year, you aren't really worried about the pay as much as your direct supervisor and the work load. A bump from 60k a year to 61k a year won't make you stay in a job you hate. 60k to 100k might, but that's not just a raise, that's a different class of pay.

It's not easy.

When I feel myself rushing I try to think about why I'm in a rush and what I'll actually gain. Like maybe rushing through a task will let me play a video game or something, but what does that do? Let's me relax? Why not relax now and try to enjoy what I'm doing, or at least avoid having to do it twice.
