It’s relatively reasonable to expect a person to lie, it’s a bit less reasonable to expect two people to lie, it’s even less reasonable to expect someone to lie in a professional context where their livelihood depends on them not being discovered to be lying.

It makes a certain sense when you look at it that way from an employer’s perspective.

Of course, like you probably understand, it doesn’t make any sense after all, because in the end if you go to a doctor and lie about being sick (symptoms), the doctor is neither lying nor professionally liable and the whole thing is just an additional hurdle to go through.

But that hurdle is also part of the point to reduce the convenience of lying. And I’m absolutely sure that this additional hurdle has prevented someone somewhere from calling in sick while they aren’t.

Again of course, that likely hasn’t resulted in more work being done, because obviously the employee had a reason to lie about being sick. But whatever, I’ll stop now.

What to do with it is to act understanding and empathetic with people like that instead of standoffish and hostile. You still insist on the better way of doing things, but there’s no actual need to attack anyone that doesn’t support the better way of doing things, even if their reasons aren’t rational or even morally questionable/bad. It only serves to further entrench them in their positions, while the opposite might have a chance to happen in a more cooperative approach.

Funny how you made exactly the comment the article predicted within itself xD

Why would you ask questions when it’s the same day? Like, don’t all sicknesses start being noticed one specific day and thus you take sick leave starting that day? That’s literally the only way it makes sense at all

Seems like you’re an asshole boss to me

Maybe you should explain your intention instead of making cryptic belittling remarks.

No one insulted you. They commented on the fact that you don’t understand reality for most people. “Oh honey” means “oh you are so innocent :/ that’s really sweet, I don’t want to make you feel bad by explaining reality to you”. They were kinda being nice to you in their way.

I’m more nice because I think people should know reality:

Most jobs are so easily replaceable and have so little protections that if you start citing laws and taking sick leave like it’s rightfully yours, you’ll be fired a bit later for “unrelated” reasons.

Thus while you are right that you would be able to get your sick leave by communicating the law, you will not really get them because you’ll be out of work in a few weeks. If you want to keep your job, you don’t communicate the law and don’t take your sick leave.

Btw, unionize to prevent all this.

I mean the only thing it does is if you’re a minute late, you might as well go get a coffee and sit down in a park and be 59 minutes late.

When I call my doctor and tell them I have covid, I get a doctor’s note sent to me/my employer automatically without having to expose anyone

I’m just confused because they already must have had a lot of money. How much you need?

Don’t remember, sorry

Am on e/os/

Xposed is just an API which is provided by the LSPosed Magisk module.

idk where I got it from, but it’s called “Universal SafetyNet Fix” by kdrag0n

Yeah but I mean if your bank would offer their app through F-Droid as an addition to Google Play, there is no reason to assume the app suddenly got less secure because of that.

But, there’s no difference in security between using a different storefront? The difference in security depends on the app itself, not where it was downloaded from.

Indeed, I already bypass SafetyNet and Play integrity with some kind of xposed module, I don’t expect this to change.

But it’s absolutely clear that the first definition is meant by the person that is being responded to. That is why the clarification is needed. This is not about “most people”, but this specific one person in this specific comment thread. “It doesn’t matter that the edges are curved?” is only said by someone that thinks in the first definition, not in the second.

Can somebody please explain this? I don’t get it :(

Well that depends on your definition of curved… If I look at this image from a 3 dimensional coordinate system that includes the sphere, the edges are definitely curved. Of course, if you look at this from the coordinate system “surface of the sphere” then I would agree with you. There are 2 ways to look at this and decide if it is a triangle, and the bro you responded to didn’t understand this and needs it explained.

I agree. But is a statement like “everyone in hexbear is insane” helpful in any way at all in this situation? The only thing it serves is to further any divide and cause more hostility.

The times I went there with differing opinions I never got insulted. They think their views are right and (sometimes) mine wrong. They also shared their reasons and tried in their way to educate me. They have their own culture over there that is more rude/direct than normal, but it’s certainly possible to speak normally to them.
