It’s a way for them to semi-legally force you to not take your sick leave, because it’s gonna always be a huge pain to get to your GP (or urgent care in the US, because your GP is booked solid for another two months) and get that doctor’s note.

No no, that’s too slow and slow is expensive. Time is money and we have to move faster and break more things in order to disrupt the market. /s

He already showed us this once in 2020. He had the world’s softest ball thrown at him to spike his image, and he still fumbled it because his own personal belief system wouldn’t let him just tell people “look, stay at home, work from home, wear masks in public until we figure this shit out” without a profit motive SOMEWHERE.

As we all know from COVID, if you don’t have data on a thing, it stops existing.

Can we get Scaramucci back?

Fun fact: Dr Phil’s fucking TV crew is covering these guys as a reality show.

Multiple interviews are also done because there’s far too many people in the hiring chain who don’t really need to be there. I’ve had interviews for lower-level managerial positions where literally the vice president or some other person who clearly has better things to do than to be there, is there just to “be involved”, or (in one case) all hiring decisions had to be run through the VP. I’ve done panel interviews with 6 different HR people at once who clearly just need something to justify their existence.

It happens occasionally for retail, especially if they’re hiring you for anything above grunt work. Manager? Even shift lead? You’re likely looking for at least two rounds of interviewing. I had sales positions that wanted me to interview two or three times as well.

Why wouldn’t they? The investigatory agency for this is the USCG, and last I recall, the man in charge of Homeland Security and the rest of the US is pretty comfy with doing favors for his billionaire friends.

While this is true, the FBI and the DoJ have the power to quite literally just go “make me” when ordered to produce evidence or cooperate. This administration has a very fun habit of simply ignoring anything they don’t like, and I expect that even a federal court order, even one from the Supreme Court if it comes to that, will not get them to do a damn thing.

Nah, these people think the nonwhite nurses and doctors will somehow harm them, negligently or intentionally kill them, etc.

Because that’s what these racists would do to nonwhite patients.

Nah, that just helps to normalize it and let people think it’s just harmless and fun.

It’s easier for the news and the government to deepfake things like “huge mobs of Mexican narcoterrorists just over the border” or “there’s a nuclear missile silo in Iran” or whatever with this.

If you ignore all the sinkings of ro-ro ferries…

Ryanair operates in numerous countries. What’s stopping them from just moving the plane to “coincidentally” operate only in countries that won’t bother with seizing the plane?

Federal takeover, no. Now, federalizing National Guard units and having them and ICE police polling places in swing states to make sure “people vote correctly”?

Plus all the shock absorption for the lense. And the avionics if you don’t plan to just have this thing drop film into a predetermined area (like the old Keyhole sats or the U-2).

Well our next target according to Dear Leader Trump is Cuba, so maybe. Why not run a war on 3 separate continents at once, multifront wars are always totally winnable.

Again, this is standard wealth transfer to corporate America. All that cash goes into these senator’s pockets via the MIC.

I keep telling people these aren’t distractions. Iran might’ve started that way, but Venezuela, Mexico, now Cuba, and probably anywhere else in the Caribbean or South America that doesn’t play ball with the regime - these are wars of expansion. Trump wants more things he can point to and say “I did that” and doing colonialism by proxy like we did with Venezuela already looks easy, and it generates your name in the news an awful lot. Never mind that all the companies and expats and their kids are still sore about being forced off the island at gunpoint by the revolution, and the CIA is definitely STILL wanting payback for the Bay of Pigs.
