For someone who's not sure about my workplace, you seem pretty sure about my workplace.  Please, do post more. 

Where did I contradict myself?  Everyone is an individual, and a higher % of younger individuals are "out to lunch" way more than the % of older folks.  I'm not micromanaging.  I'm not managing anyone at all; not my job.  We have core hours where everyone is expected to be at work, wherever that...

Who says I don't have any reasoning behind it?  I talk to the people who assign them the work they're supposed to do.    There's clearly a higher incidence of "wfh malaise" with younger people than with older people.  Not being online, not returning calls, not responding to emails, just plain...

We have a mix of wfh and on site.  Some of the wfh folks, especially younger workers, have minimal value.  Not entirely their fault.  Can you imagine graduating from college and trying to get OJT while sitting in front of a computer at home by yourself?  And then again, some I think find WFH...

I told my wife that a couple months ago.  If you're on the fence about something, just buy it.

The TOU plans at SCE certainly push the powerwall calculus closer to acceptance.  They rape you on electricity costs right when solar generation falls off a cliff so having a reservoir to balance it all out takes the edge off.  The convenience of staying powered during blackouts and not having...

I would be shocked if Elon isn't angling to change the law as part of the negotiation with TX govt to relocate there.

There is a steady procession of young (5-10 years experience) engineers making their way to a competitor in CO.  One on my team told me she got a 30% raise as a baseline offer.  A friend bought a 3200 sq ft house in a beautiful mountain location on 1/2 acre before her 1st day...for $750k.  I...

I would move to Texas if I couldn't afford to spurge on an extra plant at Home Depot every now and then.

My first thoughts have been mentioned already.  Beautiful views, older (nice) homes, and too far from freeways.  On average lots are a good bit larger than Irvine lots.  I have a couple friends that live there.  Just getting to LAX which is relatively close by takes 45 minutes with no traffic. ...

Call me when the pictures are through the agent's car window from the street, with the side mirror blocking a third of the shot.

Don't forget the "unlimited" part.  That's the bigger WTF here.

Net worth is up 32% since July 2019.  I don't include physical possessions plus my investment style is conservative.

That's what she said!

Is it possible to run high inflation and low interest rates for sustained periods?  Will house prices keep up with inflation if mortgage rates are 6% and increasing?  God help us. 

Man am I late to this thread, but posting stuff like this just blows the credibility of the entire rant.  Don't see these in the topics listed.  Sex ed at 11/12 was the norm when I was growing up.  Glad the courses have evolved now to cover many things that were unknown, ignored or...

Yes, there's no better way to instill confidence in a government's fiat currency than to enforce limits on how it's spent.    :o      ???

I love that even Zillow doesn't even try to adjust their estimate to meet the asking price on that 1. 

I have already uploaded a pic of my covid vax card to my workplace database.
