Reply to Inspection sticker for my car expired. What can I do, especially if I'm out of state? by GummyBear6009
Out of state cops don’t care about your PA inspection stickers. They are almost certainly not going to give you a ticket over it.
Not advocating this, but I once drove a car for two years with expired stickers, including to the other side of the country and back. Never got stopped once. Now definitely don’t do that, but I also wouldn’t put too much worry into it. Just get it done when you back.

> WFH isn't that great for the employer
How terrible for those poor employers to not be able to afford rent. Maybe they should pick themselves up by their bootstraps and stop buying all that avocado toast.

We have implemented a 4 day/32 hour work week at our office and it works great. We have had this in place for a year now. We are a small office but we pay our employees as though they are working 5 days/40 hours per week and we provide healthcare. Productivity has not dropped and quality of life is way up. That one day a week makes a huge difference in people's lives.

I like how they say they are testing it in Bucks county, then right below is a link to a news article titled “there are two millionaires to every 1 homeless child in Bucks county”. They don’t really mention how much the tax credit is for but it sounds like people with cushy jobs in nice areas are about to earn their companies money by working less.

The only way I'd be okay with this is if they still pay us for 40 or realign our hourly so that it equals what we were making per year per hour. Otherwise you just know this is a pay cut.

You know there will be some additional layer of fuckery, companies will find a legal exploit to reduce wages if they’re forced to reduce hours

I was once told that as a Catholic, I wasn't a real Christian.

Dat you, Robbie? Engaged in your own fake outrage. Over fake outrage.

Can you fix the right lane in both directions of 78 or I will continue to drive in the left lane of both directions until you do.

Edit: LOL in the /r/Scranton post the very first comment is someone telling me I missed two neighborhoods. I love it- nothing riles people up like neighborhood geography

I want you to know that the original shitty roads "How I drive while drunk vs how I drive while sober" meme was about PA roads.

Agreed. I've been through something similar a couple times before. I recommend calling to make the appointment before OP gets back, and ask the place to send a confirmation via email.
They'll tell you that it still may not stop you from getting a ticket, but if you get them to send that to you, then the officer who pulls you over may be nice about it and let you off with a warning.
On a similar note, I had a dead headlight and the officer that nabbed me was super chill about it. It was Tuesday and I told him my boyfriend at the time was going to help me with it on Thursday (which was all true, if that matters to anyone here.) Instead of fining me and calling it a day, he gave me a written warning that required me to show up at X-location in something like 7 days to prove I had gotten it fixed.
Planning ahead seems to greatly help with making the punishment lighter.

Considering a lot of info is coming out showing that WFH isn't that great for the employer, chances are you aren't going to.

As long as there are Republicans in office this will never happen. Despite all the evidence from other countries that show this makes workers happier and happy workers are now productive.

I had a schedule for awhile that was four on and three off and it was nice in some ways, unfortunately it was still 40 hours and two of the shifts were 12s. But having three days off is nice.

We're not the provider or insurance company. We are a 3rd party billing company. Yes, profit margins are small. In our collections agency, it's even smaller, with 100x more regulation. FDCPA, FCRA, TCPA, HIPAA, PHI, etc.

OK the nuclear bomb thing is wild. Like an insane take.
I also think all of those are sacrifices we must make so we can win the war on rats (this was a joke). But also a weird amount of focus on a politician not from Pennsylvania. I like the ones from here.
Unfortunately, I do think we've given up on the purpose of this conversation and I'm no longer certain the purpose of these rants.
