Welcome to General Chat - GAW Community Area
This General Chat area started off as a place for people to talk about things that are off topic, however it has quickly evolved into a community and has become an integral part of the GAW experience for many of us.
Based on its evolving needs and plenty of user feedback, we are trying to bring some order and institute some rules. Please make sure you read these rules and participate in the spirit of this community.
Rules for General Chat
-
Be respectful to each other. This is of utmost importance, and comments may be removed if deemed not respectful.
-
Avoid long drawn out arguments. This should be a place to relax, not to waste your time needlessly.
-
Personal anecdotes, puzzles, cute pics/clips - everything welcome
-
Please do not spam at the top level. If you have a lot to post each day, try and post them all together in one top level comment
-
Try keep things light. If you are bringing in deep stuff, try not to go overboard.
-
Things that are clearly on-topic for this board should be posted as a separate post and not here (except if you are new and still getting the feel of this place)
-
If you find people violating these rules, deport them rather than start a argument here.
-
Feel free to give feedback as these rules are expected to keep evoloving
In short, imagine this thread to be a local community hall where we all gather and chat daily. Please be respectful to others in the same way
I think you’re right about this. And a lot of those conglomeration started because of all those fake wars that we got involved in. Women had to start working, because men were across the pond fighting. It was all by design.
One of the people I just placed the most is the Ford company. They are the ones that started this 8 AM to 5 PM working arrangement. Some people say it was a good thing because they were overworking people, and employee children as well. But I think it was another nail in the coffin to subjugate humans.
Present them with some type of ideal working day, and then beat them over the head with it. Clock in, clock out, clock in, clock out, clock in, clock out. It’s just so… ugh! Are used to work in HR at waste management, and the timekeeping system that we used was called KRONOS! Go figure! The symbolism is everywhere!
This is always always always how they normalize horrible stuff to us. First take a real problem, provide a solution that no one can find fault with, and then weaponise it and beat us over the head with it in every possible way.
So true, so true! That’s exactly what they’re doing with healthcare and the public school forums!
Wow… Do you want your children to have an education? In America, you can get a free education. BUT - now we want to teach your kids about dildos instead of mathematics.
Wow… Do you need healthcare? Well, in America, we have Obamacare, so now it cost more for ANY healthcare overall.
Rinse and repeat!
