  • I feel like a good bit of people don’t understand how FMLA works

    I actually dont know how FMLA works and have been corrected, apologies lol.

    An FMLA violation would be dependent on if the FMLA claim was even opened which usually falls on an insurance agency not your company. You can’t violate something that hasn’t happened yet, right? A request for time off is not the same as using time available on an intermittent or continuous FMLA claim. No one has an intermittent claim for medical leave in case they are shot and hit by a truck lol

    So even in a normal circumstance of not being shot say you’re taking care of an individual at home. You open an FMLA claim. But you still have to call off. You try and call off but it’s denied because Ricky the dick from packaging is already off. Well you’re obviously not going in so you get points either through an automated process or a supervisor with no spine that won’t exercise discretion in the name of floor coverage. In the meantime you call your insurance agency responsible for your company’s FMLA claim handling and they process your claim. Once your claim is approved by a case manager and supporting documents then your points go away and you can choose to consume paid time off or have excused unpaid absences and any point accumulated from this leave is negated.

    This tweet was captured on 1/3/25. Today is 1/4/25. Claims do not process this quickly to have the potential of being violated.




  • I know some of their hardware also sucks for the people saying that. I’ve had a share of crappy logitech stuff that kind of pissed me off. But, I love my MX master 3. I use it for work, it is so fun to wind your finger up and scroll downward on whatever long winded scroll able item you may happen upon. I had it for 2.5 years, it’s still trucking, I feel like I only charged it 4 times. It’s truly awesome.




  • He’s speaking as a union rep, I get what you’re saying but he just can’t call a general strike. It would take years alone to get different trade union contracts to align to expire on the same year to get what he wants to do across. For example I’m in a steelworker union and my contract expires in 2027. If we sign a new contract in 2027 and participate in a general strike it wouldn’t be backed by our union and could be punishable. However if they vote to extend the current contract 1 year near the end of the contract (very likely) we would actually have steelworkers and auto workers contracts expiring on the same year which could be interesting if these assholes actually communicated with each other union to union.

    Sorry if you knew all this but I took your comment as in a “why not sooner?” or “what are they waiting for?” context so I felt compelled to answer.
