I live in Teton county, Wyoming, widely known as Jackson Hole. It is one of the wealthiest counties in America. The uber rich own houses here, so they can visit once a year and go skiing for a week.
Housing here is so bad that a studio apartment can go for $2000 a month, and it isnโt that good of an apartment. One of my supervisors makes almost twice as much as I do, and she lives with three roommates.
I know people with college degrees that illegally live on public land here (National Parks/Forests) and take showers in rivers because their three jobs canโt pay their rent. If youโre lucky, your employer will offer housing. In this situation grown adults share rooms that can be worst than college dorms.
Iโve heard conversations with rich people that come here for the scenery and low Wyoming taxes and they are completely delusional. They have no idea why we have a worker shortage, they just complain that their favorite restaurant had to shorten their hours. And their response to increasing pay when I ask? โPeople donโt need higher wages, they are just being selfishโ
Do they really believe that their barista is going to happily serve them for literal shit? Is the cashier going to commute 2 and a half hours each way so they can live in an apartment instead of their car while being berated by spoiled assholes? No!
Eventually something is going to drastically change, the bubble will pop. Either our wages are going to be increased so that we can actually survive, or the working class is going to leave because the tips arenโt going to cut it anymore.
As soon as JH declares heโs on the market (ie. announces heโs leaving Michigan or going to the NFL, or interviews for any job above a fast food drive-thru), Ross will back up one Brinks truck to the Harbaugh house and another to the UM Alumni Association building in Ann Arbor. He wants him badly, but he wasnโt about to make the same mistake he did with Philbin, so Flo had to go. Not to mention the fact that he couldnโt foster the QB-Coach relationship, the most important one. Or, that he couldnโt attract or develop any quality assistants. When I look back at him berating Tua on the sideline, the cryptic tweets from his trainer, and the head-scratching departures of guys like Caldwell, Oโshay, Karras, and Flowers, Iโm convinced they found it impossible to work for him, and todays move confirmed it. Heโs a brilliant defensive mind, but thereโs no repairing the flaw that runs your subordinates out the door. Heโs built a top-notch defense, and itโll suffer with his departure, but we need someone who can mitigate that AND fix the offense. The only possible candidate to step in and take over the job that wonโt cause a big team regression is Harbaugh. Ross is done with looking for the next-up-and-comer and there arenโt any other established coaches on the market. Heโs said he wonโt be the one to take Harbaugh away from Michigan, but heโll definitely receive him, and-in the world of PR-thereโs a difference. Finally, we absolutely CANโT sign Watson. Having him as our leader would be like being strapped to a bomb. Even if he settles the civil cases and avoids prosecution, itโll just be a matter of time before he ends up in Broward County Jail. Sexual predators donโt change any more than physical abusers do. Harbaugh can fix the o-line and the play-calling, and he will give Tua the opportunity he needs to become an elite QB.
I don't want to step on anybody's toes here, but the amount of non-dad jokes here in this subreddit really annoys me. First of all, dad jokes CAN be NSFW, it clearly says so in the sub rules. Secondly, it doesn't automatically make it a dad joke if it's from a conversation between you and your child. Most importantly, the jokes that your CHILDREN tell YOU are not dad jokes. The point of a dad joke is that it's so cheesy only a dad who's trying to be funny would make such a joke. That's it. They are stupid plays on words, lame puns and so on. There has to be a clever pun or wordplay for it to be considered a dad joke.
Again, to all the fellow dads, I apologise if I'm sounding too harsh. But I just needed to get it off my chest.
With rampant Covid closures lately, I have to say Iโve had numerous friends in SM positions who are telling me that theyโre being put down or treated poorly (like theyโre bad employees) for having to close due to isolations and quarantines. This is so far from the advertised Starbucks โbrandโ of caring about its partners so much and this is nothing new.
Fun story: I was a Starbucks manager. I was working in the peak of the pandemic and numerous times was berated by my DM for having partners who had been exposed to Covid, leading to reduced hours and closures. They started asking me to tell employees who were going out and doing things to not come to work, asking me to dive into their personal lives, and reprimanding me for basically not being able to control a pandemic. I explained multiple times that my partners lived in multigenerational homes with big families who all had jobs so chance of exposure was higher but it continued to be taken out on my store and itโs employees for closing. When my county reinstated masks, my DM told me to put up signs but not enforce the rule. When my employees voiced concerns for their health and safety and I brought those up, I was once again berated for trying to comply with county standards and was fed the line of Starbucks didnโt want us to have to police people (after a year plus of already doing so) and just let it be.
I also had a Black employee get into an altercation with a white woman who was making clear racist insinuations, which resulted in them both pulling their phones out. When I was asked to look into it and my Black employee informed me she felt triggered and nervously grabbed her phone in an attempt to get the woman to turn her phone off, Starbucks told me I had to fire my employee. I told them that I felt this was the wrong choice, she had told me she was triggered and was trying to come to it from a place of understanding and offered instead a final. They pushed on firing her and told me I had to โtake race out of it.โ
Finally, my DM fired me for using my employee discount to buy drinks for friends. A practice that everyone at Starbucks knows is widely used. When I asked if it was because I was putting up a fight against issues I disagreed with, he insisted it was the drink discount. When I asked if he was letting go of everyone who had ever done that, he said no one else did and even said he didnโt use his discount to buy his wife drinks.
Iโll tell you right now. This is just another company that
... keep reading on reddit โกMost of us are aware of David Chase worked on The Rockford Files, a 1970s detective show starring James Garner and to a lesser extent Joe Santos (Angelo in Season 5) Chase is credited with writing 20 episodes including two weโre going to discuss โJersey Bounceโ and โJust a Coupla Guysโ. Both episodes feature multiple future Sopranos references. In some ways itโs a rough prequel and as always very allegorical. Did Quasimodo predict this? No, Stephen J Cannell did. Anyway, I watched both episodes today and now will go through the Sopranos themes.
โJersey Bounceโ opens on a Jersey license plate and then to a man in a blue Caldwell Chiefs shirt cutting lines on a mirror as a rock song plays and a group of people are breaking up a pile of weed in a giant colander. Off to a great start!
Next scene we find the โleaderโ of this group is none other than a young Butchie, Greg Antonacci, playing an aspiring wise guy named Eugene Conigliaro from Jersey, along with his buddy. Police question them about some noise and vandalizing complaints and the first word out of Butchieโs mouth to the officer is โMadoneโ.
Butchie and his Jersey buddy are Sean Gismonte and Matthew Bevilaqua prototypes minus the Pace University education. Butchie calls them โjust a Coupla guysโ ready to get their hands dirty to anyone that will listen. They are begging for wet work. Wannabe wiseguys who left Jersey to make it big in LA, sort of like Chrissy but for murder not movies. Butchie has a nice speech where he says โCoupla guysโ about 10 times.
The plot is they murder a guy on spec that had been severely beating his wife. The wife is the daughter of a local mob boss and They hope this murder will endear them to him. But it just angers him and he threatens them with death. Butchie tries to fix the problem by trying to murder his Jersey buddy with a knife in a parking lot but is foiled by Rockford. Butchie tries to escape by jumping off a pier but itโs low tide and he hits the sand. Roll credits.
Some other things: the name Conigliaro gets mispronounced continually throughout the episode, the phrase โBah bah bingโ is said twice, one scene ends on a bizarre freeze frame, lots of general rock n roll talk including an Eagles reference, a reference to Cousin Carmella, the names Ralph and Vito are used, the top gangster character drives a really nice Cadillac and itโs remarked upon, a battered woman defends her abuser husband, two different Godfather references, and the non-Butchie Jersey

They were cooked in Greece.
I'm surprised it hasn't decade.
Don't you know a good pun is its own reword?
Now that I listen to albums, I hardly ever leave the house.
Two muffins are in an oven, one muffin looks at the other and says "is it just me, or is it hot in here?"
Then the other muffin says "AHH, TALKING MUFFIN!!!"
For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.
I said "hey look, an escaPEA"
No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!
