The woman was German.

Why would Israel give a shit about these people murdering Germans?

If anyone would be making a measured response it should be Germany.

If it was my daughter being paraded through the streets dead, I wouldn't be thinking about a very measured response right now. I'd probably be trying to level the entire country.

Duck duck go needs a lot of work to replace Google search.

I've used it for years but often I still get the shits and just bring Google up after duck duck go fails to find what I'm looking for.

I bought my wife a 'fake ' diamond ring for the engagement ring.

She couldn't tell her snooty friends that though, so she went and bought herself a very expensive ring with real diamonds.

She had the ring I bought her melted into my wedding band. I hate jewellery though so had no intention of wearing it. I agreed to wear it for a week after we got married. I've never worn it again. I haven't even seen it since that first week. Over a decade. I wonder if it's just lost, or she has it somewhere still.

I don't care enough to ask.

Fortunately you've got this left wing echo chamber to vent in for solidarity.

I'm with you comrade 🫡

My employer told us all the rumours were true. Layoffs were happening. They called it "difficult conversations" instead of firings.

About 1/5th of a team of 1000 people.

Apparently they hadn't decided who yet.

Meanwhile we just received the biggest bonus in the companies history due to historic profits.

Then the CEO told investors that they expect a big pickup early next year and will need to hire a bunch of people to handle the demand.

So they are firing a bunch of people for 6 months to hit financial targets in the back half of the year before hiring people again.

Everyone that is to be fired is still waiting to find out who will be axed.

I get up at 4am on days I have to go to the office. Driving an hour to work at 4:30 sucks but it's better than driving 2 hours to work at 6:30.

On Fridays I either have the day off or have to work 4 hours, alternating each week.

I get up at 4am on the working Friday and finish at 8 exactly like this guy suggests because it feels like I have every week being a 3 day weekend.

It is shit cramming a full working week into Mon-Thursday though. My employer implemented the 4 day work week if we wanted. You still have the work the hours though, so it's quite shit.

I know quite a few people just went back to working 5 days to shorten each day.

This is one of the weirdest statements I've ever read.

I don't like the repair policy of this company so I'm switching to Apple......

Tell me you live in a dark cave without telling me you live in a dark cave.

If I lived in a country where this was something to worry about, if worry about it.

It's not something I've ever thought about or considered in Australia.

Sure break-ins happen but violent crimes during break-ins... it's so rare I've never heard of or met anyone that knows of it happening.

For example, how do I have the best experience gaming.... Switch to Lin........ Oh ಠ_ಠ

It was never worth the stupid value it was pumped up to. Why do you think Elon has been dumping so much of it.

It's gone now but for a long time we had a 24hr fruit shop.
