Organ donation tied to reduced sentencing is a huge absolutely not, way too coercive.
Bone marrow donation is still probably not good, however, being someone’s match is very rare and it isn’t a permanent loss of an organ and is usually akin to donating blood in terms of invasiveness.

No, each complaint to HR was over the phone. The job works out of different locations

No, she was smart enough to not put anything in writing. It was always over the phone or in person.

It’s hard because people absolutely should be rewarded or payed for organ donations but of course It does feel a little coercive to take days of prison off, that said it also feels cruel to pay a prisoner for a donation when they are still jailed

Technically I don't think they have to pay out sick time if it's not in your agreement.
But I will say you can probably find a lawyer to take this retaliation case and they'll charge a percentage of the winnings. I feel like it should be an easy win if you have anything in writing.

Completely different situation.

It will happen right around the time commuter rail stations allow out of town residents to park there, and also have high density housing all around them.
Trying to stuff large amounts of commuters every weekday into expensive, tiny, overcrowded and hard-to-access Boston is a fool’s errand. Boston has reached the limits of its growth.

I blame Wesley. Picard knew better than to get involved with women with obnoxious kids.

FYI my recent experience: We stayed overnight and paid extra for the water view room. The A/C unit was extraordinary moldy. Switched for a another water view room: same. Room number 3 with a courtyard view was fine.

Such a shame. Good people just like the rest of us, subjected to the rule of a barely human autocracy.

I read The Dystopia Triptych last year, and I kept thinking how ridiculous some of the premises were of several of the short stories (yes, one of them involved a seemingly well-intentioned voluntary organ donation scheme, and where that would inevitably lead). Maybe I was just oblivious at the time, but especially in the past year several of them just seem prescient. We really are living in the darkest timeline.

Did I ever deny the warming? And did we not just get back to back snowstorms? I was simply responding to the fact that the person said winter was pretty much over. It isn’t. I did not, by saying that, deny climate change. Go find someone else to be a shit to.
