  • We have two cats, a void and a grump. The voids full name is Robert but he goes by Bob, my wife calls him “little kitty” because he was a tiny kitten when we got him, I call him “you fat fuck” because he got up to 19 lbs before we started putting him on a diet (14 lbs now)

    The grumps full name is Norman (as in Norman Bates, serial killer) but he goes by Norm (as in not normal), my wife calls him Normie and I call him “shut up you” because he’s constantly crying about something














  • The reason it’s relevant is that most working people do not earn salaries, they earn hourly rates. I’m a welding engineer earning a salary, working with maintenance men and welders and operators who all earn hourly rates. Every company I’ve ever worked for has both salary and hourly and also an HR department.

    The situation you are describing does not align with the vast majority of working people’s experiences.
