A co-worker of mine was in the later stages of a difficult pregnancy. We worked 9/80’s and had every other Friday off. A manager was upset because she was having to take so much time off from work to go to doctor’s appointments.
He didn’t understand why she just couldn’t go on off Fridays.
Her doctor did surgery on Fridays, not “regular” appointments. So yes, you’re 100% correct.
Happy cake day!
A different perspective - my grandparents grew up speaking French. Then the state passed a law saying only English in schools when they were young children. They would get hit on the hands with rulers for speaking French.
This was of course passed down to my parents and myself. But my mom still bitches about kids where I currently live being in school and unable to speak English because they’re new immigrants.
She doesn’t see the hypocrisy and it’s sad.
My dad and I used to stay up until 4 am making coffee in the garage so that my mom wouldn’t smell it and wake up before work (Dad was disabled and not working at this point).
I think this started when I was ~ 10 and out of school and I was able to sleep fine. I also now know which parent I got this from, haha
One thing about this that could get interesting is when the school leaders are different versions of the Christian/Catholic faith. Which Bible do you use? Which lessons do you incorporate? What about the trinity? Mary? The saints?
It would be fun to watch, ngl
My partner is an educator in Texas and I showed this to them. So thanks for posting, OP, getting the word out and such.
IIRC it was around 10,000 French words that were introduced into English after that. That’s what we learned in school, anyway.
About an hour later, Whitefeather returned home and guided deputies to another 6-year-old girl who was visiting with another couple from their church.
Good Christian folks, I see.
It sounds like it didn’t get reviewed By the publisher and he seems genuinely apologetic.
Miami New Times publisher Adam Simon tells Axios the ad is unacceptable and he’s changing the alt weekly’s ad review process.
- Normally, he said, staffers — including himself — review ads prior to publication. But in this case, the ad came in past their deadline and Simon did not review it.
- The New Times will no longer take ads so late that they can’t be reviewed, he said.
- “Naturally, had I seen it, which I should have, I would not have let it run as is.”
Who knows for sure, but I was expecting whoever ran the ad to either be a supporter or completely indifferent. It was a nice surprise to see them also be upset instead.
I never knew about the prosciutto/ham, but tajin makes everything better!
My mom eats it with salt. It’s actually not bad, I enjoy it either way. The salt does give it an interesting flavor, so maybe try that if it might enable you to like it more.
Are they still using COPV’s? The engineer in me needs to know.
The irony here is that south Louisiana is still very segregated when it comes to education - those who can afford it send their kids to Catholic school. So a decent amount of students already have this. He’s just trying to “own the libs” in a PR stunt.
I would have to agree that 1 cm/crime is indeed a rumor. It’s much larger than that.
What a dick. I love your descriptive reply - it’s so, so true.
Perfect.
But do they put giant “In God We Trust” decals on the back to reach maximum level of cringe?
They did this, too:
The Epoch Times directed millions of dollars in advertising toward supporting President Donald Trump’s campaign and published dozens of articles parroting his lies about the election — resulting in huge growth to its audience and its coffers.
Makes perfect sense…good luck in your journey :)
OP doesn’t necessarily “want” to waste time. OP is going through some difficult things right now and looking for helpful advice just to get through the day, Yoda.
