Interesting and with credibility, Misk as I tend to agree with your posts and comments (+20!). I just don't trust my company even after 20 years and moving into leadership years ago, so anytime I see a corporation making a choice like this I can't help but be extremely skeptical.

I would always prefer a base salary increase to my arbitrary bonus, but with the balance between net benefit to employees over the bottom line of the Corp, why would a company do it if it didn't pay out less in the long run? Or are they counting on merit based salary levels for performant individuals being a better deal over typical company-wide gaming of bonuses being easier to control?

Reading the article it seems to be related to a shortage of labour in Japan, so not my situation where we have been laying off people for years now. I'd love it if we did this for positive reasons like attracting better talent and increasing average salaries. I guess that's where my disconnect is.

If corpo decides to do this, it is a net benefit to the company and not the employees. I await my own shit corp implementing this in the future...

Remember not to trust the fucking grocery giants, they were public enemy number one before all this horse-hockey with the states, and they continue to be.

The convenient 🍁 labels are for donkeys who want an easy answer. Five seconds of reading a label tells you what you need to know. It isn't difficult, and we still know how to read in Canada.

You're my most upvoted individual on Lemmy, cm0002. You're currently sitting at +129 before I hit the button again for this post. Dear @[email protected], who is a prolific poster too, is the only other to crack +100 for me (for now).

Seems like something is fishy with the Drumheller Chamber of Commerce. They voted to end this super popular and famous dinosaur attraction without any form of communication with the Town of Drumheller, or seemingly anyone who cares about it.

Council had to call an emergency meeting because of the outcry and effect this will have on the town. Then the chamber president offers a clown statement about it:

“While this announcement is a difficult one, it’s also an opportunity for the chamber to refocus on our core mission: supporting local businesses, advocating on their behalf and fostering economic growth in Drumheller,” said Lana Phillips, president of the chamber.

This move is the opposite of that core mission. Do these kind of people just say words they hear in TV and movies, regardless of meaning? Something stinks in Drum.

I've noticed a lot of blank comments that look active. Opening the comment in a browser shows it was removed by a mod. So those mod messages aren't being displayed. Here are a couple of screenshots showing the problems:

Hello, not sure if this is specific to Lemmy.ca, my account, me, or something else, but I'm posting anyway. The following is happening on my laptop (LMDE6) using Firefox (128.0/64) while logged into Lemmy.ca.

  • Clicking next while logged into Lemmy.ca on either Local or All view times out after the first page (screenies below).
  • When on Subscribed view the next button works and new pages load.
  • If logged out, the next button in Local and All views work to load a new page.
  • Clearing browser and session data, and using a container tab hasn't made a difference.
  • Tried above on two other computers: another LMDE6 with firefox, and a Windows 10 with Chrome (latest) with the same results.
  • The problem doesn't happen on two other lemmy 0.95 instances that I have accounts on (lemmy.dbzer0.com, and literature.cafe) in the same browser, using the same Lemmy settings (default, but dark mode) apart from my subscriptions and blocks.

  • click next

  • it sits here thinking for a while

  • then times out.
 

Hello, I've seen a bunch of comments recently that are just grey boxes which take a good two dozen swipes or more to scroll to the bottom of. I assumed they were trolls at first, but I checked one in a web browser today and it's a comment that includes an animated file:
