In a bit of pushback to the all-around lie that people don't want to work anymore, a Florida man applied for more than 60 entry-level jobs in his area and only heard back from one.

Holz, who has experience in food service and retail, began his experiment by applying for a job at two restaurants that he had seen be pretty vocal about the staff shortages and a supposed laziness among the workforce.

He continued to find jobs tied to owners who publicly complained about a lack of applicants. He said he only received one interview, at which point the business owner attempted to walk back the pay of $10/hour offered in the listing.

Nadler wouldn't let him play it. They found out it was a recording of school board members calling the FBI and Justice Department rat line because a parent calmly asked about why his child was being taught Critical Race Theory and the school's covid protocols. Obviously the school board member did NOT want to answer for that so (in vengence) they tried to get the parent investigated as a domestic terrorist for threats of violence. They did that to shut the parent up, that's all. Jordan wanted to show exactly what that parent did and the school board found out about it and mobilized people at the federal level to block the viewing of that video because, well, they don't want the world to see how the board over-reacts.

I was listening to that on the way in. I didn't hear the request to play a recording but I heard Garland admit he made the decision to investigate the parents at the request of the school board and was influenced by the media reporting.

some of the places were offering full time only to tell him that he'd start out as part time and have to work toward (according to him).

I ate at Wendys yesterday and they were putting job applications in the to go bags with napkins

Fucking ridiculous...

hedge wrote: ↑Thu Oct 21, 2021 3:09 pm So Nadler reads it out, and the word "protocol" was used instead of "rule," which Gymbo Jordan tries to get around by saying it's not a "rule." Again, fucking ridiculous...

But the DNC lawyers had to scramble last night to dig that rule up to cockblock Jordan from showing a video that both you and I want to see."

How did they know he was going to play the video if he didn't tell them? And for that matter, why didn't he just follow protocol and announce his intent to show a video 48 hours before the committee meeting?
