  • I just thought that in real life, when they were out of on-stage roles, other children would do something else. But then again if the children are, like, 7, it’s not like you can assign ALL the jobs to them.

    I hadn’t thought about it. But then again, I never did any sort of play at school.










  • Well they don’t know know, but there are signs. For one, we fill in timesheets, and lying on them is a no-no. I could probably get away with stretching the truth a little, but if they notice I only commit between X and Y time, or that I’m seldom available for developer questions at a particular time, they might get suspicious and investigate my hours.

    As for overtime… Well I think how companies handle it is they don’t actually ask us to stay late; they just give us unrealistic targets that kinda require overtime unless you’re a god if we ever complained they’d say they never asked for us to stay late.

    We used to be able to accumulate time indefinitely and take time off according to the bank of extra time we’d worked, but once, someone accumulated hundreds of hours and just left on an unplanned vacation for nearly a full month and they really didn’t like that. So now, you need to work your quota (which you can have them adjust to your capabilities; 30, 35, 40…) on average every month. So, sure, I can work only 20 hours one week, but that’s 15 hours of extra time I need to do within that month.

    And if you have extra at the end of the month, well, that’s lost.

    Which sucks, because I used to use those as sick days over the legally required two paid ones we get per year; my health isn’t exactly resplendent.

    Eh, not sure it’s got anything to do with the political spectrum anymore. At this point I’m not sure what to call it but the US and allies’ obsession for maintaining ties with Israel no matter what feels divorced from… Well, a lot of things, really. But among them the left/right spectrum.

    I can’t talk much. Canada is also selling Israel the supplies they use to do their mass murdering.

    According to the dictionary, 抜き打ちnukiuchi and 抜き付けnukitsuke sound like synonyms. I’m a little confused.

    I guess with uchi (to strike down) vs tsuke (to put, attach, etc) one sounds more like the result and the action but it’s weird that the definitions from Jisho.org aren’t too explicit.
