As a low-level “bean counter,” I feel you! Lost my last job because the CEO decided I was “too pushy about getting stuff turned in on time.”
I was the only AP person for both sides of the company. I was trying to not only make sure their bills got paid on time, but also cleaning up the mess their ridiculously high turnover had caused. It was literally my job to be pushy about paying things on time!
They fired me by phone the day before my replacement started. I had zero warning that they were even considering getting rid of me.
But joke’s on them! They caught me right in the middle of a massive overhaul of their AP filing system (four years of electronic AND paper files), and gave me no time to wrap things up, so that whole area is a fucking mess.

Yes, kind of a pass through. They own the ATM, you’re just using the ATM to process the transaction. The banks see an ATM withdrawal rather than a cannabis transaction.

Awful logic.
If guns were illegal you think these scenarios would still exist?
If they hired private security you think these scenarios would still exist?
If this were a Christian/Jewish/Insert-Religion-Here country you think these scenarios would still exist?
If poverty weren't systemic you think these scenarios would still exist?
Your question is pointless. It's tangential at best, and doesn't at all establish a causative link.

Reply to I'm wondering if anyone will get what I mean when I say... There are a lot of truly psychopathic drivers on I-5 between Vancouver to Olympia. by midgethemage
For whatever reason it seems better between Longview and Vancouver. Longview to Tacoma, or Gig Harbor, or Seattle, holy fuck. I'm amazed any of us leave that zone alive. And I've driven in Chicago, occasionally during rush hour.

The problem is that our “protectors” are significantly sympathetic to the rightwing cause, so they’re not going to vigorously pursue or protect against future attacks.

Lone wolf stochastic terror attacks are hard to predict, but this stuff has caught the attention of the FBI and Homeland Security (once they're bored of shooting brown people). The people they catch involved will face some lengthy sentences. Not as much as stealing a few million from a billionaire because priorities exist.

There not much we can do, thats why they hit these targets.
We need to throw the book at any we might catch and clamp down on those breeding these lone wolves. But sociecity is held togeather on the idea of a common good/interest, broken people who don't want to play by those rules have dozens of targets around them they could attack. We can't protect it all unless we go full ai drones.

In an attempt to harm people. MAGA/GOP has decided that if they can't win the culture wars, they're going to sow chaos, death, and destruction. There's going to be a lot more right-wing domestic terror attacks in the country and especially in blue states over the next 10.years or so as Christian Nationalists find themselves increasingly politically sidelined in these areas.

No. But goddamnit this is fucking frustrating that a few dipshit MAGA fucks can fuck with thousands at a time and it’s treated so nonchalantly

Can't wait until our power goes out. Though maybe they're done with Pierce Co since they already hit it in three places.

Yeah Roger you see big strong 6 foot guys break down and cry and I've seen little guys work their ass off day in and day out on deck. All in the mind if you don't have the drive for it you won't make it through a season. Sorry to hear about Jeff Hathaway and the rest of the crew I'll never forget the day I heard about the destination and the day I heard about the scandies. Always saw the scandies and it was such a beast I fell in love with that boat the first time I saw it.

My friend the Aleutian Beauty owner and Jeff Hathaway's wife were very close to Scandies. Jeff was a really great guy. I liked him a lot. The last time I saw him was at his daughter's small wedding. He was the proud dad with a big hug and a big smile. Yea, you could line up 50 guys and try to pick the ones you thought would make on deck. Likely you would be wrong, It's in the head and heart. I watched a ton come and go.

It’s not low tide. It’s the salmon spawning and dying in the creek. Lots of salmon bodies. I was just over there today and lots of decaying fish in the stream. You might want to visit in the fall next year and see them spawning. It’s pretty neat and the trail there has some nice markers explaining the salmon run.
