Haha for real. My internal monologue: “Wait, ‘older’? Aren’t most of us in our 30s to early 40s? …oh”

At work I’ve been thrust into a support function for some random system (I’m in analytics) and one of the roles I work with is fairly entry level, so lots of younger folk. I have been floored by some of the basic-ass shit I’ve walked them through. (Like explaining that you can copy and paste the url into a browser if the link isn’t clickable for whatever reason. Also had to clarify what url meant–is this not a common term anymore?) I had just assumed that because they’re younger and grew up with the internet, they’d smoke the hell out of me. But I guess interfaces are so streamlined these days many got away with never having to learn basic troubleshooting the same way I did as a millennial.

Very Wes Anderson-y in a good way.

Oh good, another thing to love about living in Texas.

Sure, but that’s entirely beside the point here. Nobody is celebrating people being laid off en masse. The law changed because these jobs were apparently not being occupied to begin with,

The article snippet quoted here literally says this was in response to industry staffing shortages…

Idk about that. Third party apps have not yet been sunsetted, so I’d imagine there are some people who are waiting until the very end to make the switch. That was my original plan for the two weeks after the blackout. Ended up jumping ship early because of how it all played out, but I’m sure there are some holdouts who plan to leave once their app dies.

Mine won’t change sort views at all, just stuck on all: most comments. Haven’t tried interacting with it otherwise because I can’t get past the same posts I’ve seen a million times.
