  1. Heheh... Socrates criticised democracy, so they democratically executed him.

  3.  @mikolowiskamikolowiska4993  It does. Government can use violence against you and it's "OK" while anyone else would get prosecuted for using violence against you.

  4. That's me after coming back home from a warehouse shift 🙃 But after 5+ years, at least I don't get sick from cold anymore. I used to be sick every single year before I started that job.

  5. The video isn't talking about "obsession" tho. Having an aspiration and following a good male role model doesn't make it an obsession.

  7. Warehouse picking might be even worse😅 Starting with 2 empty pallets, driving around the warehouse and picking cases from other pallets onto your 2 pallets which gradually get taller and taller, so at the end you may be lifting heavy stuff above your head just to put it on top of your pallets. You have a rate to do, but you also need to stack it properly and wrap it. If your stacking sucks, your pallet will collapse at the first turn you take, and you can re-stack it again, doing the same job twice but the restacking doesn't count toward your rate because it was your fault. Your rate: 240 cases per hour, or 1800 per shift, or 2700 if you're doing 12 hours. 1 case = whatever is packed together, for example 8 bottles of water (8x 2 litres = 16 litres/16 kg = cca 35 lbs), that's 1 case. If computer tells you to pick 10 cases, you pick 10x 8 bottles packed together. Then proceed to the next slot, and next, and next... So if computer assigns you trip via soda aisles, you pick about 2 tons per hour with your hands. Then wrap your pallets, drop them at the goods out lane, take another 2 empty pallets and repeat. If you're lucky, you're sent to aisle with some lighter biscuits. If not, you get another trip with soda, or wine or beer.

  8. What about sleep pills. I've been using them for a while (not every night, to avoid developing dependence). For someone like me who suffers from poor sleep and insomnia, that seems like a good option. Unlike intermittent fasting, which is undeniably beneficial for us, not having enough sleep is only detrimental, there's no benefit to it. If I only sleep 4-5 hours per night, I have headache the next day, I can't focus, I can't exercise, I can't do anything really.

  9. ​ @lousdinovembre  Not necessarily true. You can find a kiddish woman cute and yet not have desire to be with her.
