We told them to go fuck themselves. We retain lawyer specifically in case we have legal concerns, and the way we use their products, price jack up would be so extreme that it’s entirely worth risking it while we migrate away.

It’s even worse. That institutional knowledge and loyalty was purchased with a reputation for employer stability.

Now you have neither and you can’t buy back that trust.

Only a fool would take a government job unless they had no choice. Even if I were considering it, I would insist in negotiations for pay upfront or some kind of severance agreement.

For many years, the status quo was that you underpaid and provided an extremely stable position but in exchange received more loyal and often more experienced employees that knew how to work with the complex bureaucratic systems. Now, there’s no reason to take those jobs.

There’s no reason to take these jobs, not without a significant pay bump or other equalizing factor.

When you put it like that, it’s almost like it’s just extortion.

I think an all powerful divine being is more than capable of stopping whatever he or she wants.

I’m almost curious to know what kind of world these people live in where the issue comes up so often they feel the need to pass legislation. Can’t they leave people alone?

I understand we are now having the military work more closely with the police. This will surely improve the situation.

This is going to be so great for the economy.

Your life is worth some extra money to a billionaire. It’s worth it.

Unfortunately, the global economic system is tightly integrated. I think this will provide only a minor hedging effect.

It’ll be 2000 by tomorrow!
