Remember what men touch every time they go to the bathroom, when he is shaking your hand.

Sounds more like they are trying to track “efficiency” to make sure their employees are maximizing their profits and not working “too slow” or goofing off. Horrible!

I hope their future lawsuit against this publisher wins them huge amounts of money.

"This is an important thing to think about."

If you want a military that is able to fight at full strength, I would think that having a flu epidemic would prevent that.

Whoever it is, it will be someone female.

I get this… I didn’t set boundaries on my work for a startup WFH during the COVID lockdown, and I ended up getting them used to me working all the time. Which was problematic when I finally begged for a break.

A well-made homemade fruitcake is a wonder to behold, especially if it is soaked with booze. I like mine with nuts. It's a great texture. I don't think it is a fruitcake without booze.

It’s terrible, and yet another one of the reasons I love physical books and media.

Buy from your local Friends of the Library for low cost books, DVDs, music, and more, that supports libraries. No tracking!
