I love the mumins! Although they're children's books they're are definitely worth a read :)

I also want to do my part :) your a good person!

Yeah, I mean, what's the alternative? Cuddle with him on the floor? That's not good for my back. Don't cuddle at all? What monster would do that?? There's still the "no dog in the bed"-rule, which is still going strong 💪

The "no dogs on the couch"-rule decayed two days after his arrival. In fact, I'm cuddling with him on the couch right now :D

This is my very good boy Marley ❤️ wanted a dog since I moved out of my parent's place 18 years ago. Three weeks ago this bundle of joy and derp strolled into my life.

I don't have kids either, but to me it's logical, that that this has to be taken to account. I mean, those are people who are dependent on the situation, it's not like they could do anything on their own. I'm happy, that at least this is something, where humanity comes into play. And again: I don't have children and I don't want them in the future.

And like I said, there are also other points, like age, or how long the people are working for the company.

What would be your points, to decide if someone has to be fired? And no, firing no one at all is not an option in this scenario ;)

I don't know how unions work in Poland, but here in Germany you should organize, when there are lay offs in your company.

Unions can bargain better conditions for the lay offs like higher gratuities (is there something like this on the states?) or create a point system, who gets laid off first (based on family status, age, the likelihood of finding another job...).

So: unions always make sense :)

Same here in Germany. But let's see, how long that will be. Wiith CDU and it's little dirty and stinky brother already waiting for their turn to come and destroy everything which makes the future seem not completely damned. Alongside with all welfare-goodies (leftover from the nineties).

Argh.

Und wer soll den Tee zahlen??!! Und die frische Luft ist doch sicher wieder nur so ein woke-Code dafür, dass meine drei Diesel-Monstertrucks enteignet werden sollen!!!11!

So sorry, can't help. But I love everything about this problem :D

Non-tech Background. I work for a big union and migrated here from reddit, which was my only social media site I would use.
