As old as he was the first time, I imagine.
Your link has a trailing ) that makes it not work.

I just fixed one of my motorcycles, and I’m currently doing a deep dive on the pros and cons of phenolic caliper pistons. I could go on about motorcycling and vehicle mechanics all day every day.
Thank you! That’s exactly what I wanted to hear!
We’re in a pre-truth era. Always have been.

He’s still president. Even if he wasn’t, his sycophants are waiting in the wings to carry on. What people think doesn’t matter until and unless there’s open revolt because of it.
That’s great! Doesn’t matter, but it’s great!
6·2 days ago… since most employers don’t want to foot the bill for actual due diligence …
Employers in the US can be liable for damages if they communicate inaccurate information about a former (or current, I imagine) employee’s performance if that communication negatively affects the former employee’s hirability.
Unless your former employer has detailed and contemporaneous records of your work history and reason for termination, and they’re willing to risk being taken to court over telling those to your potential future employer, they’re going to confirm hire and term dates, and nothing more. Everywhere I’ve ever worked has been like that; “If someone calls to check on employment history, you tell them hire/term dates and nothing more.”
Himself, with a dull pen knife.
My wife has accused me of mansplaining when I really was just sharing the information I had in my head about “the thing” because I was proud of myself about that.
There’s also the “You may already know all this, but it’s worth saying out loud anyway.”
I’m not saying mansplaining isn’t a thing - it certainly is - but there are other innocent “info dump” kinds of things that can look like mansplaining but weren’t intended to be. I try to be very clear about why I am info dumping when I do, but I’m not always able to catch myself in time.

4·2 days agoThere might be a written agreement of what the work, hours, compensation agreed to is, but that’s not a contract for employment to the degree of “if the employee fulfills the conditions of this contract, they can’t be terminated.”
It doesn’t need to be a ‘protected class’.
[In the US,] Yes it does.
The boss can’t tell you to go out front and mow the grass, and fire you if you refuse.
Yes they can.
Sure, they can let you go, but they’d be on the hook for compensation. (in most civilized places anyway)
Not compensation, but unemployment incsurance claims. If you’re let go “without cause,” you get to claim unemployment, and the business that let you go has to pay some portion of that. Unemployment insurance barely pays anything, though, so that’s not going to be a very high amount for the business.

Yeah, I’m pretty sure edits take a lot longer to federate, it’s still wonky on my end. Federation is still better!
