Thank you for that.

I’ve been doing that for years now. Unofficially.

No Walgreens.

No Starbucks. Etc.

Site is being stalled by BING. Can’t get there - claims no certificate - not private site - has go back button but no continue to site button. more censorship.

Don’t tell them why.
Hopefully, you’re in an “at will” state. Then you can just say, “I had to cut staff because of COVID-19 and I’m afraid It’s got to be you. I’m so sorry to give you this news. Here’s your pro-rated paycheck. Bye.”
No point wasting any more time with these losers in a lawsuit than necessary.

There are some states where employment is at will. No reason needs to be given. If anything, security risk, disruptive behavior. I have seen some liberal HR departments make stuff up to get rid of people. Look up “Performance Improvement Programs”, a common trick by HR to put an employee in a no win situation.

Quite the column.

I will still say the pledge of allegiance, salute the flag, in memory of what once was.

Yeah, you could call it “Preemptive Bidenomics”

I’ve looking at Overstock as a replacement for Amazon and eBay, though it can’t do everything.

Vote with your 401K and IRA accounts. Take an active roll in managing which funds you are invested in.

Sounds great. If I were an employer I would do the same.

Termination without cause and they can claim unemployment. With cause, they have to look for another job.

Definitely time to choose ones associations wisely. Conduct commerce only with known loyal entities. Await further instructions.

That’s where the Performance Improvement Program comes in. The HR trick is to make up some deficiency. A claim that people feel threatened by the subject employee. You can make up all sorts of head trips with this. Have him go through an increasing number of management employee “counseling sessions “ where it not only messes with his head, it interferes with his doing his job. Have more hoops that he needs to jump through. Liberal HR departments do this all the time with employees deemed to be a problem even if the employee is a high performer and works well with the team. Except in this case you are cutting dead weight that could be a high liability. Just document everything, be creative, be ruthless.

We have a new neighbor down my street of suburbia. One afternoon a few weeks ago he let his very young non verbal toddler wander unattended into car traffic on our street. Me and a neighbor stopped our cars, corralled her and got her back inside her house. Then a couple weeks later I see Biden stickers on his cars. If that happens again with him neglecting the kids I’m calling the sheriff. No questions asked.

True, but unemployment doesn't pay very much. In Texas, to get the maximum benefit of $521/week, you have to have an average salary beforehand of about $55M. So you're now making close to or less than half your pay. And it's only good for 3-4 months, so you still have to find a new job, you just have a bit of a lifeline to hold on until you do so. And most of the States pay out less than Texas does.

I had similar thoughts mine were a little different that was to stop spending money Wildly and spending it frugally eating out less instead of going to the movies every week seeing something that I want to see and just not giving a damn as to whether the business will survive and try and avoid China and companies that are gong ho on China like Wal Mart is.

I am working on a project and have to procure a raw material which will have a nice volume- Two companies have comparable products. The sales rep spouting the anti Trump BS for 4 years lost out. I can rationalize a slightly higher price for alternative-
