  • I’m sorry to interject, but is it a normal response to blurt out a list of people and groups when you don’t understand what is being said?

    When you’re at a party, and someone says something you can’t hear, have you ever just blurted out the names of people at the party?

    I don’t understand your thinking here. He either heard him and agreed, or didn’t understand him and decided the best course of action was to just list out names of the opposition. Only one of those makes any sense.

    And I have to say, when I heard this without a primer, I fully understood what was being said. As did my wife.


  • Ah, yeah I’ve seen similar hours shit before. Usually it’s an idiot manager or owner who doesn’t believe the worker when the law is brought up, or doesn’t care and thinks they can skirt around it.

    Had a supervisor once at a huge hotel chain who got chewed out by the building manager (a few levels up) because he was putting the company at risk of legal action. Not because the kids were being taken advantage of, of course. But because the action was threatening their profit.

    Fucking nuts.




  • You might want to re-read what my comment said. I explicitly stated “for example.” In fact, you yourself acknowledged that it was an example. If you can’t understand how that isn’t a strawman argument, I’m not really certain how this discussion can continue. Do you not know what an example is? Because at this point I’m wondering if you think it means “I bet you think this,” as it’s the only explanation that makes sense.

    If you’re not willing to answer the question, I can only assume it’s because you’re understanding the parallel I’m drawing. Seeing as how you seemingly understand, I think we can safely end this… I suppose we can call it a discussion if you want.

    Good day.
