Honest question...as a person whi is a counselor you have studied psychotherapy techniques.  You also said you struggle with some things yourself on occasion.  Are you able to help yourself through self talk or intellectual understanding of the symptoms/feelings that occur?  always wondered about the "Physician Heal Thyself" phrase when it comes to mental care...thanks in advance

@Don. Age discrimination is…

@Don. Age discrimination is rampant because it is near impossible to prove especially for job candidates.  Job posts offer clues with language like entry level or only a couple years experience required.  Many employers discriminate against the unemployed with language like recent experience required etc.

My best hires always tend to be people over 40 for many reasons including EQ, loyalty, ethos not to mention skill and lack of drama.

Large companies would be well advised to add age diversity to their new hires by recruiting older employees who will also help improve existing workers by what they bring.

@CaliUMfan what is the daily rate sub teachers receive?  where I'm at it comes out to 13/hour which is why the school system can't find subs

Finding people is my #1…

Finding people is my #1 problem.  Job candidates want insane money, disappear after contact, don't show for interviews or even disappear after receiving a written job offer.  For temp contract workers we had to pay hourly rates that aren't sustainable but we need bodies to run machines.  I also pay bonuses for attendance which is a huge problem for new hire and temp workers.  Most temp workers call off within 3 days and no show within a week.  I've never seen anything like this.

I am also looking in to low cost robots to reduce this headache.  Our company treats people well and is low stress fwiw.

Why won't you guys outsource…

Why won't you guys outsource the BBB to a 3rd party?  Unix based boards utilizing perl script are rock solid and many mgousers would pay the cost for you.  this constant Huel breakage retardation and general hatred of our forums should have prompted this a long time ago.

Glad to see Michigan getting a professional football team to root for...hope they do as well as the first edition Michigan Panthers!  I will say their pay rate is craptastic...hoping this will lead to something good for SP very glad for him.

This is a blessing in disguise actually...SpaceX will need to do some development of economical shielding for their satellite boxes.  This is the kind of stuff that advances technologies and would lend itself towards human space travel as radiation shielding is a large obstacle right now.

I have in the 80s boy that was a long ass day.  Felt for a few of the guys they would have us line up in a room, drop our drawers and I think one guy had some sort of crotch rot going on.  Doctor was telling him to get penicillin, go to the doctor, get treated I can't remember the rest.  They didn't do a good job seperating the females from the males but we were so tired seeing the chicks in their undies did nothing for us as we were being moved like cattle from check station to check station for hours.

Nothing spells humility like being told to bend over and spread em with a room full of guys doing the same!

That is an awesome gif and how I felt after hours of shoveling the snow.

Having said that the thread title reminded me of the creepy LSU recruit videos with Kelly's antics and how utterly normal JH appears when contrasted with THIS GUY.

Edit:  Everytime I see this video the cringe factor hits new bottoms of the barrel.  The lighting on Kelly's face, the slow motion, the butt bumping...you could have a 16-week college course that analyzes the multidimensional creep-factor here.

"It's only money" and "I'd do this job [at Michigan] for free."  Jim Harbaugh, 2021

Have to admit I struggle with the incongruence of this recent statement by JH and this NFL HC blitz of his.  It seems like he had no takers and so Michigan is the booby prize?  I'm happy for his 2021 success and always think people should follow their dreams but I didn't really like how this all went down.
