  1. The OWH mouthpiece has him getting fired because he rarely came to work and let his deputies handle everything. Guy I know from church stuff that got caught in the Covid layoffs last year basically confirmed that was the case.

    So a job at Chipotle should provide a living wage for a family with one income regardless of location?

    Is Chipotle entitled to enough workers to run a location at low wages? There are going to be less workers entering to workforce in coming years. If you are dependent on that category of worker to make your enterprise work, you are going to have a bad time if you don’t get ahead of that.

    They are.  And when the welfare stops, and things equalize, the business should hire new, more affordable labor. 

    If the jobs are filling what are they bitching about then? Also, I'll assume they've done the demographic research to prove that the labor pool isn't shrinking demographically, that'll be facing increased competition anyway coming forward.

    I feel like Catholic Bishops or the Catholicism machine or whatever the heck the trillion dollar business in Vatican City is these days-- I feel like them voting to deny Biden or distance themselves and their organization with Biden shouldn't be surprising. He's pretty antithetical to their stated and recorded core beliefs, probably in many ways, but obviously in his pro-choice abortion stance.

    Why is this news or does anyone care or is this just an excuse to bring up and make fun of Catholics?  

    Surely people aren't expecting the organization to conform to Biden the individual or to make exceptions because he is another in the long list of forgettable middle-of-the-road leaders who will erode with the sands of time compared to the civilization staple that seems to be the Catholic monstrosity, destined to exist until people or time itself end, whichever comes first.

    If anything, Biden should have came out as a lapsed or former Catholic a long time ago unless he was just waiting and hoping not to get called to the carpet for not marching to the beat of the drum. 

    Given that Biden has never at any point stopped being a regular at Mass, how the fuck was he going to come out as a lapsed or former Catholic?

    This.  This type of verbiage is right out of the manifesto.  Not every job is meant to be a long term, stable career.  Many jobs are entry level, transition type positions.  Most or us worked them.  Learned from them.  Then moved on.  Telling a small business owner that they must pay someone $20/hr to wash dishes it absurd.  Or bus tables.  Some jobs are not fun and pay lower wages.  The pay justifies the skill-set needed to perform the task.  

    The problem is many UE + Covid relief payments in certain areas equate to $23-$24/hr.  That's good money to sit on your ass (or get a side hustle, which I imagine most are doing).  Biz owners can't compete with that price point for the jobs they need people for.  

    If you are dependent on transitional high turnover labor, you probably want to make good and sure that pool is going to stay deep enough for you to push in. Smaller yearly cohorts turning 18 every year into the 2030's aren't going to make it any easier coming forward, regardless of what gov't policy is.

    I’m blessed that when my Aggie relatives in Lee County introduced me to Juneteenth while I was down visiting from Nebraska by explaining that it’s when freedom was proclaimed in Texas and then took to some shed out in the country somewhere between Giddings and LaGrange and introduced me to brisket.(the meat, not the poster) instead that Texags mess.

  7. I’d been planning on trading in my current vehicle this summer because it’s getting to be time too, or committing to driving the wheels off. Talked the guy I like to deal with, told me that nothing to be had on popular Ford models in this model year, can’t even put in an order. They implied they could probably put me in a Jeep, but I didn’t have them do an inventory search or anything yet to see if that’s true. Might look at a 4Runner but can’t imagine they aren’t in short supply at this point too. Has anyone else tried to buy anything recently?  

  8. While I like the stuff, and eat it on many things, including burgers and love a good peanut butter milkshake, I have absolutely no brand or type preference and generally just buy whatever is at eye level in the store. Is there any real reason with it too have a favorite or a style that’s above the rest?

    I just found out this isn't that common of a thing, but it was the way we always make cold meat sandwiches made for sack lunches during planting and harvest:

    Butter in place of mayo.  The sandwiches are always wheat bread, butter, cheese, and ham or turkey.

    One side of my family does that. Other had salad dressing(the Natural Light to Miracle Whips Busch Light) Also lots of summer sausage in place of other lunch meats. If Grandpa was involved in the planning might see a little heart and lung loaf.

    Is this including or excluding all the sheep being held captive in aggy sex dungeons?

    Those are all survey based and the focus on the bigger sheep holders. So it includes the Aggy that fucks a lot of different sheep, but likely not the Aggy that fucks one or two sheep a lot.
