Imagine my face when I had to tell nurses that they couldn't reuse needles that they dropped

on a completely unrelated note, don't get sick, fellas

Lol

Well im definitely gonna keep an ear open for that nasally voice

Urgent care nurses* I was linking back to the private sector bit

Apologies, I haven't had my coffee yet

Been waking up at 5am in solidarity with my wife (and because I do more when I wake up early)

Example - working on this project and we have a contract with VendorCompany. VendorCompany's solution to accomplish a certain task was using an archaic technology that literally everyone has abandoned. The contract does not stipulate we must use this solution, but if we do it's included in the cost. It would take months and months to get this working and even then it would be unstable and result in long term support issues. I found another vendor where we could get the task up and running in days, save boatloads of money, and require almost no support. The answer? "With VendorCompany it's free."

It's not fucking free if you're paying your employees to focus on this shit for years when it breaks down constantly.

WOW

What crap!

Imagine having to explain this to an *accountant*

Sounds like a bad accountant...

They're the division business owner. Failed upwards.

If you can say, how archaic are we talking here?

🙄

Like, we need a real-time function. VendorCompany's solution was to send a flat file to an FTP site every night, and have a batch process do its thing once every 24 hours.

I... what

Would require all sorts of parsing validation and prayers that the file is received on time.

was the process coded on punch-cards, too

This is for what should be real-time pushes of notifications via email/SMS to customers when they demand it lol

hahaha

How do you keep your head from exploding??

Money helps. Legitimately would quit though if they force the FTP solution.

There are plenty of places I can do this work.

Baller 👌

As jesse lee peterson would say

‘Amazin!’

I think Matt did a great job defending freedom from the porno banners

Like jesus christ control yourself. Stop asking the state to protect your dick from your hand

Of all the stupid ass hills to die on, this porn ban shit is the stupidest one. All it does is reveal that they don't want constitutional values, they want to twist it in order to push values

I don't know guys common sense porn laws would solve so much

Hahaha

I bet were I so motivated I could probably have child porn on my hard drive within a couple of hours of dedicated searching despite its complete prohibition and utter moral condemnation

If child porn can’t even be stopped. What chance does a real porn ban have

At completely removing it? Zero. At reducing it? Probably possible.

Yes, just like banning drugs reduced drug use and banning gambling reduced gambling and banning alcohol reduced alcohol

Oh wait, all of those things increased? Weird

When I was kid, this was before the internet had images mind you, we youngings depended upon total chads leaving hustler and playbor mags in bushes near playgroubds

No joke the best place to find porno was a tree stump near a playground

People will always find a way to get what they want.

I mean, it's a ban. Super effective.
