It’s indeed important to be an understanding boss. And I’ve also been on both sides of this and agree with you that it sucks pretty much.

However: this guy is a bad worker with a bad attitude and clearly states that he has no interest in his job. He does bad enough work to upset his teammates. You’re his boss. Don’t hang out with him. Maybe a beer after work, but even that stretches it. You wanna be his friend and hang out with him outside of work? Then you both should not work directly with each other. There is a time and place for delicacy and sometimes not.

Sorry, I’m a bit harsh! But I had problems with a co-worker myself. And I suffered actually years from constant drama because I was polite and considerate and forgiving. And it would have saved me from so much frustration and stress if I kept my distance in the beginning or just plainly told him to fuck off.

This is not complicated at all. Ask her out and let her choose. Have a polite, but not too close relationship to the guy who is basically your subordinate. If you think he might harm himself, take action, but other than that your not responsible for his wellbeing.

Also, it sounds to me that you are trying to be absolutely fair to this guy, not only in this thread but also at work, but not necessarily like him too much. I’m also pretty certain that she was just polite to him and didn’t want to upset him. Talk with your love interest, than you will know.

Awww, it thinks shitposting is „producing value“…

One of us, one of us!

Would also erase the need for the atrocious spellcheck. Few minutes ago I wanted to write „random“ it got changed to „ransom“ and when I changed it again I wrote “randon“ by accident.

Good, writing with a touch screen is absolutely horrendous.

Thinkpad T480s with an i7 cpu. Lightweight, portable and useful.

If his greed surpasses his cowardice and he sees an opportunity, sure.

Are they bots? This reads like a parody, like someone re-enacting a Reddit post after only having heard stories about the website.

The jokes aren’t even funny…

Ah, the story of how Putins Russia invaded Ukraine.

I think it’s funny.

Many freighters rent cabins for passage. No idea how expensive this is, tho.

On the other hand, I have problems with authority, keeping my mouth shut when I should, and don’t intend to make it easy for people to get purged

In Nazi-Germany you probably would have been one of the first the Nazis took away. One strategy of them was to curbstomp immediately any defiance in the population. They were successful.

Under the Magas? Who knows, you might hold out a few years. My guess is about 3 years max, they’d want to consolidate before the coronation, erm, I mean the the next „election“.

I don’t expect it, but I don’t rule it out either.

Just a warning for everyone who isn’t worried: you expect that the leaders of the world act logically and like adults. That might be a mistake.

What? The article says basically just „fake news bad“ and you have to dig up the name Captain Beatty?

Holy overinterpretation, Batman!

LOL, he shot a CEO, not somebody from an ethnic minority. Trump and Musk won’t lift a finger to help him.

Probably not, but I consider „come outside!“ as pretty creepy.

Fuck Strava. After not using it for a bit it’s now pestering me to start the app again. The begging starts to get a bit creepy to be honest.

Yes! Brother, we might be few but we are here. Fuck Wintertime, summertime all along.

Well the topic was about North Korea. Then you basically said „What about ISRAEL???“

No, not really. When I first encountered you guys, I was disappointed. Now I’m actually mocking you a bit.
