/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'

~ **8. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.

Fun will now commence.

Can someone explain how this works in the US? If my work said this to me I’d feel totally comfortable saying no, and if I did come in I’d charge for transport and get double time.

Well, in this particular instance, they asked on Wednesday to make up for time lost last week when I had to deal with a family emergency. So, I can understand that request. Otherwise, if a full-time employee is under by X hours, then they can usually get away with the request. Asking beyond that is overtime.

Fuck everything about that. A family emergency is an emergency. This is only within the ballpark of reasonable if you don'g have the time off to spend and need to have the hours in.

Fair. The particulars are more detailed than is safe to get into, but rest assured, family is safe/healthy and my investment in the company warrants my attention. I appreciate the concern for worker's rights and mental well-being.
