Hi, I’m disabled although I’m still working (at the moment, may break further). I agree with you.

The biggest issue to consider for any company hiring a significantly disabled person, whether mentally, physically, or both, is they’ll be less productive and may require much more oversight, meaning they contribute less to the company. This is the justification behind the lower pay. It makes sense if you’re a shit sack capitalist that values production above anything else.

With that being said, Goodwill is absolutely taking advantage of the disabled. They’re ostensibly a non-profit charity that exists to provide employment, leading to training and work experience, to the disabled community. They pay their disabled employees the lowest amount possible, actively working to justify low pay. Imagine if your employer was constantly looking to drop your salary so you had to constantly fight them over it. Now pretend you have a significant TBI or are developmentally disabled (just imagine your mental capacity while drunk, but without the feeling good) and still having to fight that. Welcome working for Goodwill.

Fuck Goodwill right in their “charity” hole.

Oh shit, no puffins for me after all. Thanks for sharing this.

The United States in the Seattle, Washington area, land of the million dollar starter home and $8.00 cup of (shitty) coffee.

I’m totally into that, we’ll check it out. Thank you for the recommendation!

It helps that we’re from a high cost of living area. Honestly, we’re paying less to eat out here than where we live. The tourism industry is absolutely gouging, though, and I hate what that’s doing to the economy for locals.

Great so far! There are a ton of fellow tourists and it’s a bit pricey, but it’s beautiful and the people are very nice. Plus where else can you eat a puffin?

Dog slobber. We have two dogs. One loves to take a big mouthful of water and run up to my wife and me with it, splashing drool water everywhere on the way. The other has recently learned this trick from him and now we have double dog drool. We don’t go barefoot much anymore.

When an SUV with floodlight headlights is tailgating me, I ask the passenger to use the rearview mirror to reflect their light back into the eyes of the driver. When that fails, we flash them a few times with one of those stupid 5k lumen mega-flashlights. They always seem to back off.

Luckily, while this has happened in the past, there isn’t a recent incident tied to this post.

The smell is often also moist.

LOL

A post about bathroom usage seems an appropriate place for douchery.

I have stout, wide, “Fred Flintstone” feet. Is there a market for my people?

Idaho, the South of the North. I now live in Washington, where that kind of shit doesn’t fly.

No, you’re fine! I didn’t specify. I lived with it for so long, it didn’t even occur to me to outline the process.

We had to fix it or arrange to have it fixed, then the landlord would verify it was fixed to their satisfaction. The landlord was otherwise hands off until it exceeded the cost limit. This was the norm for the area.

They provide maintenance free housing…

Keep in mind this isn’t always the case. Landlords where I used to live are increasingly requiring tenants to pay for some maintenance costs. A past landlord had us pay for anything $300 or less.

It’s WAY too over the top for me. I feel like I’m going to stroke out from overstimulation after a few minutes.

Although I think it’s fair to think about getting rid of those who want to get rid of others. Just make it a hard line: only those, no others.

I also use Nova Launcher and had no idea you could do that! Thanks for letting me know.
