He fucking TOLD them what was going to happen. That’s the bit that gets me every time. That, the appeals to his non-existent better nature, and the fact that they still believe and would vote for him again

Cedar is difficult, especially on a deck. The stain needs to be UV resistant and trafficable. It needs to put up with things like driving rain and snow accumulation, as well as long hot days. Anything you use will need re-applying regularly. At worst, every year. At best, every three to four years.

I like Sansin Dec

It’s a two coat, high quality finish

Extra duties here can be project based. Ie; this needs to be done and it’s now part of your role to see it to completion. Also should have mentioned to ask for higher duties allowance every time you are asked to do extra.

Work to rule. No overtime, no extra duties. Exactly per position description.

I know most position descriptions have the clause “and any other duties assigned by the company from time to time. “ Comply with this, but do it poorly. Ask for clarification, training, written instructions, and still half ass it. Miss deadlines, miss data, draw erroneous conclusions.

Then get upset if called out, not angry upset, tearful upset.

Easier to clean than replace, cheaper too.

The problem with vandalising or destroying swastikars is that the cameras continuously monitor the vehicle and surrounds.

Balaclava, or motorcycle helmet, as much skin covering as possible, and an approach on foot or bicycle would be wise if someone were to attempt such an egregious, obviously illegal, act.

The reference you are making is “Will no one rid me of this turbulent priest?” Often rendered as “Who shall rid me of this troublesome priest?”

Per Wikipedia “attributed to Henry II of England preceding the death of Thomas Becket, the Archbishop of Canterbury, in 1170. While the quote was not expressed as an order, it prompted four knights to travel from Normandy to Canterbury, where they killed Becket due to an ongoing dispute between crown and church. The phrase is commonly used in modern-day contexts to express that a ruler's wish may be interpreted as a command by his or her subordinates. It is also commonly understood as shorthand for any rhetorical device allowing leaders to covertly order or exhort violence among their followers, while still being able to claim plausible deniability for political, legal, or other reasons.”

I got multiple awards on reddit for a stupid reaction to someone else’s comment. I was awarded several platinum things, multiple gold, had access to an exclusive lounge, all for a slightly drunk response to someone else’s comment, on someone’s post.

Got a little braver after that.
