Welcome to the News community!

Rules:

1. Be civil


Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.


2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.


Obvious right or left wing sources will be removed at the mods discretion. We have an actively updated blocklist, which you can see here: https://lemmy.world/post/2246130 if you feel like any website is missing, contact the mods. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted seperately but not to the post body.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source.


Posts which titles don’t match the source won’t be removed, but the autoMod will notify you, and if your title misrepresents the original article, the post will be deleted. If the site changed their headline, the bot might still contact you, just ignore it, we won’t delete your post.


5. Only recent news is allowed.


Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.


6. All posts must be news articles.


No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials or celebrity gossip is allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis.


7. No duplicate posts.


If a source you used was already posted by someone else, the autoMod will leave a message. Please remove your post if the autoMod is correct. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.


8. Misinformation is prohibited.


Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.


9. No link shorteners.


The auto mod will contact you if a link shortener is detected, please delete your post if they are right.


10. Don't copy entire article in your post body


For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

Wait! Me too!

  • CFO didn't like how IT wasn't her whipperbilly anymore and decided to replace their management because fuck everyone else, priorities, and shitty budgets affecting her stuff first. Installs yes man as replacement CIO with no other experience or IT training.

  • the expected ensues, including narcissist fuckwad micromanager

  • I pack up my stuff and come in early. Photograph it in a pile before locking it away.

  • ask buddy to walk me to HR to add something to my file as I give him the key

  • "effective immediately" the thing said

  • "I'm not signing anything more," I said.

  • get the gbye handshake from a trusted peer, walk to the bus stop, catch the bus arriving presently

  • ignore the calls even when they call my wife looong after they already killed my login.

  • start my new job the next week for 3% pay cut (parity after first year), 100% WFH written in union contract, at a shop where I know the staff and they're used to suffering me, which since I've left has shed its shitty management and left largely the good ones behind
