Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Please also avoid duplicates.

Comments and post content must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

Also, as a former bartender, there is a lot of politics involved in that job. You're in charge of a bunch of (hopefully temporary) morons. There's risk assessment and mediation happening, controlling a bunch of people who are adverse to rules and being told no. Geopolitics isn't that far from breaking up a fight in a bar. But he doesn't have any of that comparable experience.
