“The flight attendant just told me that the Pilot doesn’t see that as an adequate reason to return to the airport.”
I see. So the fight or flight response is also present in attendants
Hahaha, I didn’t see that.
Damnit! I was supposed to visit Phuket for the first time next month.
A Thai friend has strongly recommended against it due to issues connected to the Iran bullshit.
Phuket, we ball
I have 100% called in sick from another state just as my friends and I were about to get on a gondola to go up to the top of a mountain.
I was on the phone saying I felt terrible when “NEXT CAR ARRIVING” or something similar blared over a loudspeaker.
“What was that?” they asked. “Oh, just the tv. fake cough”
I've done similar prior to the days of company-issued phones and company messaging platforms. These days, calling in sick is just a teams/slack/whatever message to my lead; no need to sound sick anymore!
Then
Hire

Bitch
Sorry, as an executive of a major company I may have misheard you but did you say "replace half the team with an LLM and then make those remaining pick up the slack"?
LLMs don’t take vacation and tell me no.
They don’t do their job effectively, but they don’t say no!
P - Prepare
T - The
O - Others
Because I won’t be there!
Is it "in another continent" or "on another continent" or are both fine?
that's some bullshit English has, come on, for fucks sake, it's the same thing!!!
I'm standing on a continent, but also in it's boundaries. English as a language has a lot of BS, and this shit is hard for people's who learned English as a second language.
It’s tough to say definitively because there are a bunch of dialects, but in mine (west coast USA), “on another continent” is correct and “in another continent” sounds a little off.
Would it sound weird to say "on another country?" Because that's how it works in my head
