đź’ŞBrag Is it Thursday yet?

My boss is awesome. Being at 1 large company for 21 years who didn't value most of their employees and only gave bonuses to the big wigs (ie, themselves)....it's been nice to actually get a bonus each year from my boss. But this year, from 1k to 5k and a raise that bumps me up to 85k. Not bad for an evil, racist, transphobic white murdered with no college degree. :eg2:
 
hah. He doesn't give a shit about that. I told him the story when he asked me why I left the last company. He laughed and said, "yeah I don't give a fuck, just do the job".

Funny side note - One of our sub consultants...his signatures in his email has a ton of very anti-Biden/pro-Con stuff in it. Really unprofessional, but it makes me laugh.
 
I knew it was gonna be painful and yet it still pisses me off seeing  the bonus hit the bank and 32% of it goes to the IRS. 

Fuck those cunts. I want the country to collapse just to see the IRS die. Can't you shit bags just give us plebes 1 tiny break and let us keep our fucking bonus? 
 
Nice. I'd have been involved in that if I had a boy. My daughter tried girl scouts, what a pathetic lot that was.

My daughter's been involved in both (the Boy Scout organization takes girls now) and the way they are run is VERY different. If your daughter is still interested, she can try it. I'm not all that rah-rah into it like my wife has been, but there's no question that it's been good for my kids. https://www.scouting.org is the web site to learn about it and find a troop.
 
Wanted to get my son involved in scouts, I don’t know the hierarchy, but the dude over the den masters in my area is a total dick bag who pissed my wife off continually for an hour the first time we were around them.
 
She lost interest and she, so far, as no interest in being around boys.

Teenage coed camping trips, that sounds like a brilliant idea :lol:

It varies by troop, but they generally keep the boys and girls separated. In fact, a lot of them have completely separate troops so they may not even do the same activities together. Honestly, the only problem we had in my son's troop was with a gay boy.

Yeah, we've had our share of assholes involved at every level, but we've also gotten to know some great people who have worked tirelessly to give the kids a great experience.

See, that defeats the entire fucking point and makes no sense.

Let girls into the boy scouts...excuse me, Scouts, and then separate them into groups and the girls don't even get to do the cooler shit like the boys? Completely illogical and serves no purpose other than to virtue signal inclusion. If I wanted my daughter in the Scouts, I want her to do the boy shit. The actual useful skills and knowledge.

In my son's troop, the boys and girls do pretty much the same activities together but they don't share campsites. In other troops it may be different - but the skills taught are all the same. The merit badges and ranks - including Eagle - are all the same. One thing that hampers participation, however, is that if you have female scouts, you also need at least two female leaders at every activity.

As far as teaching self-reliance, leadership and outdoor skills, it's head and shoulders above Girl Scouts.

They brought girls in for revenue - fewer and fewer boys were involved in scouting, so brining in girls seemed like a good solution. And the Girl Scout organization was pissed off about it because they lost a lot of their girls to it.
 
Yeah, the entire controversy, mixed feelings. I knew the reason was revenue as clubs like boy scouts were dying and ultimately, keeping it alive is a net good thing.

And girl scouts is largely nothing but selling cookies, preparing to sell cookies, and doing arts and crafts. Even the camping trip my kid took with girl scouts, they stayed in cabins and did crafts inside. WTF was the point of that camping trip? Learn to build a fire at least. Ok, they were 10-11 year old girls then, so I don't mean a bow drill, but at least how to start with tinder, then kindling, don't smother it, etc. But I was teaching her that stuff before that age. By then she was building her own fires in the yard when we were outside. In the 6 months we did GS, not one time did they do anything interesting or useful. And yeah, I realize each individual troop is responsible for that stuff, but damn...

The female leaders, I definitely see as being a problem. Lesbos/dykes or a good sport who got involved because the husband wanted her to? I bet the scouts, if they exist in a rural community, would kick ass. Redneck scouts would be gutting deer :lol:
 
Good on him.

If I had the patience or actual motivation (and if I'd gotten in on it way earlier), I'd have loved to have some kind of knife, weapon, etc. channel. There are a hundred of these knife review channels and even a guy with just a couple thousand subscribers gets $300+ knives sent to him to review. I'd do it just for the free gear these guys get for giving the free advertisement. I can only imagine how much the guys make who have 200K+ subscribers.
