I know, what if we put lasers on the birds!

You sound salty about their take on amazeballs.

And even if it isn't, then you'll have Swiss cheese.

In my line of work, I have worked closely with HR and have been involved behind the scenes in things like this. I have seen PIPs that are fair and actually used as intended, and I have seen PIPs that are so demanding, it's beyond obvious that they want you to fail so they have an excuse to let you go. Which do you think this one is?

I'm getting the vibe that this is the latter. I am not at all familiar with working under a union contract, but in a hostile situation, I would consider the likelihood of success of going to HR and saying "let's skip the PIP that you can't enforce anyway, offer me a reasonable severance, and I'm out of your hair today/this week."

You don't need to be running yourself ragged pretending to try to meet their unreasonable demands at the same time as you're job hunting.

I find it useful when the fly won't land, I can usually swat it in midair. It's also my backup weapon when I go to spray hornets nests.

Hahaha, I would have loved to listen in on those. Arnold quotes are a favorite language a la 'Darmok and Jalad at Tenagra' in this house.

They can just keep on being upset. Their reaction kind of reinforces why I have the damn thing mostly disabled from its primary function anyway.

If it's rained in the late afternoon then stops by nighttime, the frogs in the marshland across the street seem to synchronize their songs and get very very loud.

I've heard katydids do the same thing at night after very hot days.

Isn't that essentially one of the features of Discord?

It's not for me. I prefer text so I can think out my words.
