He first lade a threat. Then I called his bluff and then he pushed through.
In that way I got my full year off.
The stupid thing was that I was fired for reading a newspaper. I didn't take it up to court because I knew I was getting a full years pay if they fired me that way.
You're Lemmy is different from mine, so it seems. I have no idea what you're talking about.
8-10-12 hours is just unhealthy, so not bad that you can't do that anymore.
I'm 43 and have been gaming since I was 7 years old. These days I play for about 1,5 hours three to four tiles a week. That still is a lot. The less time I spend gaming the more fun I have when I game. It's really about fun.
Sometimes I feel like Arch users are the vegans of Linux. Can't spoil an occasion to mention it ;-)
Spaces will come but I miss them too. Threads are another feather that I miss on Elemen X
Matrix works great. Element X is my favourite client.
I work in a setting where everybody gets the same wage based on their job level and experience. I assume that out office staff has parity between the genders.
The blue collar part of the company is 99% men.
I got fired for reading the newspaper during my lunch break. Once a week this newspaper came with a for hire section that also included career advice and al that stuff. I was reading that part but the CEO called me into his office to tell me off. I called his bluff and he fired me.
I was scheduled to lead a team in China for a few weeks and after that had to go to the US for some other job. Sadly people that are fired can't work off premises anymore so the staff manager begged me to accept their withdrawal of my discharge.
I kindly declined and got payed out a years' wage. Took the time to reorientate into less toxic work environment. I now work with politicians, don't know what happened there.
That breeding programme called natural selection is what got us all here.

Contractual and lawful reasons.
You can't be fired without proper cause so when they fire you without proper cause the wil have to keep you on board for a while or choose to pay you out for that amount of time. I was sort of a foreman with a teal of about 20 technicians and I also had to work directly with our customers. They deemed me a liability because I was fired so they chose to pay out.
Same with salesmen. When you fire them without proper cause they want you out of their network as soon as possible and won't take the risk of letting you work with costumers anymore so they just pay out the amount of time that is needed.
