‘Who dreams this crap up?’: Kevin O'Leary slams new rule that allows employees to ignore their bosses after hours

If employees start ignoring their boss’s calls, texts, and emails outside of work hours, an after-hours emergency might have to wait until the next business day, which O’Leary finds unacceptable.

Did this fucking fascist consider hiring more staff and going 24/7? How is it the problem of salaried workers that their boss is too fucking cheap to hire enough people to get the level of support that he wants?

I worked with a woman when I worked for the federal government who was quite unpleasant. She left and went to work for a major contractor. I was on a call with her when several of her people didn't show up for the call. She was raging and asked me where they were. I told her that I had no idea where her people were. She finally had had enough and demanded that I go find them and get them on the call. I said, "I'm not going to find YOUR people on your call with me, THE CLIENT. I don't work for you anymore, Diane." and hung up on her

Almost half of Canadians living paycheque to paycheque as Tory support grows: poll

Let's elect the Conservatives so they can cut taxes on the rich, cut services for the poor, neglect our government systems and infrastructure, drive up the deficit and the debt, then blame the Liberals for trying to fix their mess.

Rinse.

Repeat.

Why are people so fucking dumb? The Conservatives do the same thing every time. Then they lie about what the Liberals are doing and people swallow it hook, line, and sinker.

Convoy organizers try to quash $300 million lawsuit | CBC News

The suit is not about peaceful protest. It does not impact anyone's Section 2 rights.

The suit is about harassment, intimidation, torture, air pollution, racism, sexism, intolerance, shutting down businesses and putting people out of work for weeks, and other criminal activities that are not protected by Section 2.

No one gave a fuck about these idiots and their tantrum until they started committing crimes.

They fucked around and they are now finding out. That's what they always say, isn't it?

They came to Ottawa to commit their crimes they should be tried in Ottawa. Want to be tried in Upper Rubber Boot, Alberskatchetoba? Commit your crimes there.

Fediverse troll creates pro-police community, immediately gets negative reactions from cop haters on Lemmy

We need the ability to tag users on Lemmy so that when we figure out that someone is a tankie or an anti-Canadian propagandist we can tag them so that the next time we see them comment we know they are a bad faith actor and can respond appropriately (and by appropriately I mean not wasting our time trying to have a good faith discussion.)

EDIT:

NegativeYoda said that Sync for Lemmy had the functionality I was looking for so I checked it out.

It does.

I was able to (temporarily) highlight NY in red like a banned user and tag him as a tankie. This week makes my lemmy experience much less frustrating. I've ashtray done the same (for real) to several obvious bad actors so I don't get drawn into a discussion with someone who has no intention of participating in good faith.

Federal judge won't block Medicare from negotiating drug prices

The Candian government has done this for years. Drug prices in Canada are often a fraction of what they cost in the US.

The drug companies swore that they would stop selling drugs in Canada if they weren't allowed to set prices in Canada as high at possible buy they're so fucking greedy that they will take $5 of profit instead of $1,000 and instead of withdrawing from the market and making $0.
