    I was not assuming you were Elon-rich, if you read my comment, you will notice that I never described you as wealthy. So your entire rant is based on a misread of my very clear response, the self-employed are in a different category.

  2. Except that repugnicans pushed for this just as strongly. Don't create divisions where none exists. Us fighting amongst ourselves only helps keep us all down while we are raped by the wealthy.

    If you're working for yourself, at your own company or pet project then you are not part of the group under discussion. Go set yourself over next to Elon there, you can give each other a wank while you discuss how much more productive you are now that you moved a couch into your workspace.

    maybe it's time to renegotiate your salary, do this while taking all the vacation time you've missed in 30 years, they owe you about 56 weeks, plenty of time for them to think about your demands. You're probably also of retirement age or close enough which makes you all that much stronger in a negotiation.

    Samers for me. I've been at it for 21 years. Worked through X-mas once but that was at triple-time, so not a problem. If I work extra hours (EWW) they are paid hours.

    It's idiots that work extra hours for free that are driving this problem. Make them pay over time at 1.5 times hourly rate, and don't work extra hours, watch the problem magically solve itself. Unionization might be the only solution.

    Music while cycling in traffic is suicidal. Compartmentalize those two separately and listen to your favorite black metal while in a safe location, not while 3 ton metal death machines are zooming by your comparatively frail human body.

    Why would you not be able to find another high paid job? You've got skills, you've got contacts, you have wide-ranging experience.

  14. You're the one that sounds angry, calling 110010001000 a dipshit. You're also being generally angry and rude, and seeing anger in others, which appears to be more a statement about your state of mind than anyone else's.

  15. A schedule is not a real thing. It is something that a CAM pulled out of his ass. Even launch dates slip, everything is negotiable, you do your best and that is all you can do. Long hours just make you stupid, less productive, less creative, and result in a premature death. You also make other bad choices due to lack of sleep and relaxation including bad diet, lack of exercise, lack of socializing, poor hygiene, etc.

    They are often in jail primarily due to being black or brown and smoking weed. Yes, lets let out all the political prisoners that are there simply because white men were afraid that their women would want to hook up with blacks rather than scared-ass white guys. Due to their fear and to keep themselves in business, they made marijuana illegal.

  20. Trump is unelectable, yet here we are. Ds voted for drumpft because hillary sucked.

    An opportunist socialist is much worse than a former major Democratic donor finding jeebus and carrying water for the neo-nazis?

    In the parallel nightmare universe we're laboring in, Kush and Ivanka are the heirs apparent in the kleptocracy. Or whatever Putin decides they should do.

  21. Enjoy?

    I'll survive this down period, not sure about the country, and especially the poor country folk who voted for drumpft and are some of the primary victims of his "policies".

    Hahaha! You're pretty deranged: you believe in multiple parallel universes. You are also a violent psychopath who would like to shoot an innocent ugly girl for no reason.

    Just to clarify, I am no fan of shillary and didn't vote for her and hate what her and the DNC did to Bernie. I voted for Jill Stein. Bernie would have destroyed drumpft in the general election... *sigh*

  22. resident drupmft! resident drumptft chump! resident drumpft is a no-class chump!

    Every day I feel like I woke up in "Back to the Future II", so daily it is like living in bizarro land.

    Four more years of shit sandwiches for us plebes!

  24. Maybe they were plugging away for 100 years, but this time they actually got their puppet installed. I'm definitely concerned that we have a Russian spy occupying the WH, but clearly that is not an issue for you.

    The Economy of New York City is nothing to scoff at as it would rank 12th if it were a nation, more than enough to keep the orange lawn gnome in its pocket.

    Since Sanders isn't president but does care about US human citizens, I'm not sure why you'd decide that he's some kind of threat to you. Unless you happen to be a large multinational corporations whose interests are at odds with Bernie's policies.

  25. trump's tax cut is another example of corporate welfare, I know there are others, I went with the one that was uppermost on my mind at the time. I am pretty lazy but definitely not a partisan sheep and I do give a damn. Thanks for attempting to judge me though, perhaps you didn't notice my signature...
