Sure, sorry was heading to bed when I wrote that last one and forgot all about it. https://www.pcgamer.com/games/life-sim/former-dev-from-sunken-sims-competitor-life-by-you-alleges-the-team-had-the-rug-pulled-from-under-them-despite-outperforming-the-company-s-internal-metrics/ Edit: also, the latest conspiracy is that EA payed off Paradox interactive to pull the project…but that is pretty fringe and far fetched.
Some interesting info coming out from the shuttered dev about this debacle…
Was really hoping this one would help get more competition in the Sims game spot. What EA has done with the sims with the nickle and dime content purchases really turned me off to EA. The game itself was enjoyable.
Yeah I enjoyed OW for a bit. Me and the gf would play mayhem mode when it was up. We stopped playing when they forced the change to OW2 and took some of the skins. I miss ow, but have no desire to play OW2.
Thankfully you can’t even purchase it anymore on Steam… What a debacle.
It’s bad everywhere, but what’s scariest to me is the stories my girlfriend tells me about the hospitals she works in. She is a traveling radiographer and gets to visit some of the sketchier hospitals across the country. There seems to be a running theme of “we don’t have enough people” and a few bootlickers enabling it with working 90+ hour weeks. Every time you see in the news where a nurse accidentally screws something up, there is a running trail of them being over worked and short staffed. They pay my gf 3-5 times what they pay their xray tech staff, AND pay her room and board, AND a huge percentage on top of that to the contract house. The ineptitude of your run of the mill hospital administration is just…scary.
Headline could reach “Wealthy person found loopholes and illegal ways to keep more of their money.” I mean, if you’re gonna eat the Candy Korn, EAT EM ALL :)
I ran out of popcorn kid, my give a shits meter of what some rando on the internet thinks regarding my life is at 0. But hey, you do you fella! Ever wonder why you get passed up for any promotions that involve managing people? Because your decisions are a liability to your company! Now you know.
Well, I’ll go ahead and stick with my own experience over some random dude on the internet. You jumped from harassment, to criminal harassment (yes, these are different levels of harassment), saying taco bell needs to handle criminal levels of harassment, to now not answering the question completely about who has the responsibility to take criminal harassment to the authorities. BTW, my experience is about 15 years in mid and 10 years in upper level management. I’m guessing you read something or talked to some buddies to get your levels of experience.
So you believe it’s taco bells responsibility to get the authorities involved, not the victim?
I’m pretty sure you insinuated that Taco Bell should handle criminal harassment in another post, so I’m going to go ahead and just assume you’re a troll and not reply.
CORRECT, certain levels of harassment ARE CRIMINAL. Then guess who gets to deal with that level of harassment? *Hint- It’s not taco bell EDIT: I had to come back on this one and ask, did you even read your own post? Are you really saying it’s taco bells job to get involved in criminal harassment? Are you trolling…?
It doesn’t make your terrible ideas any less terrible. So far I’ve given you several reasons why they are terrible, and you have replied with nonsense about your age as if it’s relevant. Hint: It isn’t EDIT: Also, I asked you in my post (it was the only question that was asked in the entire post) “Have any of you actually worked before…?” To which you *replied * “Umm, no.” So tell me again how I made an assumption and don’t know shit about your experiences. I will make one assumption, you’ve been having trouble with communication ever since you started working at 12.
That’s cool. When you do get into the workforce, you’ll find it’s never as black and white as it seems. I’ve run into just as many people claiming victim when in reality they are the problem. Not saying that is the case with this person, but moving everyone that they claim is harassing them is foolish and leaves your company open to retaliation claims. Now you know.
Umm, no. Someone being forced to move to a different location based on accusations is about as silly as firing them over accusations. They can and will file a complaint with the state labor board. Have any of you actually worked before…?
That’s not strategy bud, that’s American workplace law. Not sure what you do in your country, but here when there are claims of harassment, you provide a safe work environment. Obviously since claims of harassment are hard to substantiate unless there are eye witnesses or video evidence, moving them to a location they couldn’t be harassed was the best idea. Not sure how you equate whatever you are trudging up with the Catholics to this workplace issue. Sounds a bit idiotic to me but…whatever.
Yeah, I said that… Those would be the people she still worked with that were pissy she narced… Taco bells job is to provide a safe work environment, which they did by offering to move her to another location to combat this.
Eh, not really sure what she is suing taco bell for. They fired the people involved, who then harassed her (but they’re fired so…). Some of the people she still worked with were pissy that she narced, so they then harassed her. Taco bell then offered to move her to another location. Sounds to me like taco bell did what they could for her…
Overspiced!? Umm…no. No it is not.
I eat meat, but elephants are a little too intelligent for me to be ok with their meat. I’m also not starving and in a drought, so that would probably change my mind…
