It did its job, which was to support an Israeli invasion

Aren't all anti-communist activities money laundering schemes?

This is a good summary. To simplify/describe it slightly differently, the definitions of capitalism and communism and socialism decribe the relationships between workers and the value of the work that they do.

Under capitalism, owners own the business and employ workers who are paid wages. The value of the products or services that the workers make is more than they are paid - and this extra value produced (profit) goes back to the owner. Thus, you end up with two classes of people, the workers/wage laborers (proletariat in communist jargon), and the owners (bourgeoisie in communist jargon).

In socialism, the workers own the businesses, and so the profit goes back to them instead of to the non-working owners. Thus in socialism, there is only the one class, the workers, and the bourgeoisie class has been removed.

This is extremely simplified, but I think describes the overall work and value relationships under the two systems.

I hope this helps too.

This suggests to me there there might be bones inside the plaster?

If you can find it "Busytown" is a great kids show set on the world of Richard Scarry

I am in a similar situation in that I often feel like I'm doing things wrong and could be reprimanded at any time. This is not how work is supposed to be structured, even by ghouls. Good managers give clear expectations, and regular, informal feedback. This actually makes their jobs better, because when people are comfortable they don't hide problems - which is an action that can lead to huge failures later on.

So, I think what you're experiencing is common, and is a byproduct of poor management. I have had good managers and the difference in work culture is astounding. One can be confident at work with good management.

Otherwise, you just have to assume you're doing a good job, or you can actually just ask for clearer definition of goals and tasks, which might help.

A rule that you have to have a certain word in a title or comment? That's the silliest idea I've ever heard. Main.

One thing I don't like is that the opinions in the ruling suggest that and IP address is equivalent to an identity, which I'm not sure has been established nor makes sense

Just build 300mph high speed rail if you need to build something. It actually works

I got into designing crosswords for a while. It was pretty fun to manually lay out a sheet of answers and think up clues for them. Also, reading theory.

I don't seem to be able to post comments there right now.

I remember it was like 2 years ago I was banned for posting too late on some kind of struggle session topic or something, and never bothered to request unbannin since main was closed right after.

 

Thanks @AnarchaPrincess for the great idea.

Just look at the kindness this gentle ogre holds in his eyes.
