I also work in a factory but our temperature is largely unregulated with the exception of offices, break areas and certain departments where the stock needs to be kept away from too much humidity (so, even in those departments it's humidity control not air conditioning). In the winter it's cold enough that we've had pipes freeze in the center of the building and in the summer it's normal to see 100 degrees at 3am. It's too bad I don't live in one of those states where it's "regulated" because I think anyone would say those temperatures are unreasonable.

Now we know the answer to the age old question "what's long and green and smells like pork"

I usually pinch the knife (from the dull side) with my thumb and finger right up against the pit, putting pressure on it just until it pops off. Very similar to your method

In the US. I get all federal holidays plus my birthday and a few extra holidays (like an extra day around new years, Thanksgiving and Christmas) plus I get 25 days of paid vacation but no sick days. In 3.5 years I'll get the maximum of 30 days/year.

Our vacation time is tied to years of service.

1 year = one week 1-5 years = two weeks 5-10 years = three weeks 10-20 years= four weeks 20-25 years = five weeks 25+years = six weeks

Of course by "week" I mean 5 days of vacation.

Thanks for doing this, I'll check the list again and see if there's anything else that piques my interest

Yo, can I get This War of Mine? Because the world isn't depressing enough, I need a game to make things worse!

It's almost as though these "dangerous people" aren't so dangerous after all and are just trying to be productive members of their communities

It's an inner ear problem called Menieres disease. There are dozens of us with it!

Idk what my super power is but my weakness is salt. Too much and I first lose my hearing followed by dizziness and vertigo.

I made some Orange chicken, steamed broccoli and white rice.

All of it is low sodium (I have to eat low sodium for medical reasons) and the chicken was baked instead of fried to keep things from getting too unhealthy

Well, maybe we need to be the change we'd like to see in the community? Idk, I'm pretty lazy and busy so if I tried I'd probably give up after a few weeks
