whole workplace just got firedMy workplace just shut down abruptly - the whole business, gone. In other words - I’m out a job now.

I heard they hired some consultants to help restructure the business. Maybe that was a sign I should have updated my résumé? But I understood that if I were fired, then the business was fucked. My job was only worth 17$, but it was one of the many pillars in my department that could not break. "They can't fire me," I thought. I guess it was naïve of me to think that toppling the structure wasn’t an option.

Filing for unemployment is always the most tedious shit. I’m not looking forward to it.

I had 71 hours worth of vacation time. I had scheduled some PTO in the morning. Approved in the afternoon. Valueless in the evening.

From the owner, “For you it’s your jobs. For us it was everything”

Fuck you.

Two of my checks bounced back. You better have my money.

Apr. 4 - State government of Schleswig-Holstein to switch to Linux and LibreOffice by psychoplantkiller in c/libre@hexbear.net

Microsoft pushed for standardized use of their OOXML which was needlessly complicated and purposefully full of bugs when run on LibreOffice so instead of telling the world to stop adopting Microsoft's shitty doc formats, Munich took the much easier option and followed the herd.

I don't think I've ever seen such clear examples of poverty pushing people to make 'bad health decisions'.

slightly unrelated but I had to listen to my coworker complain about a homeless person he saw who was on his smartphone and smoking a cigarette yesterday. It wasn't enough to be homeless, you had to be a monk and a saint to garner his sympathy.
