I almost did before the outage. Their pay was pretty low compared to similar positions at other companies though.

It was pointed out to me once that the engine room scenes were filmed in a brewery and now I can’t unsee it.
I worked at a grocery store in 2003 in California for a short time. I joined just after a major strike had ended. As always, the company was pushing for lower wages and benefits, the union wanted higher. They came to an agreement with a two tiered system, tenured employees got to stick with a pay scale and benefits slightly better than what they’d had before.
New employees got fucked.
A couple months in I was promoted to cashier from bagger and got to see the two tiers. I was starting at $18 per hour, the original tier started at more than double that and went up pretty high.
Not really related to your comment, but I’m a little drunk after a rough day and seeing those amounts just really fucking pisses me off. My numbers are not adjusted for inflation and wages have gone down for the job I did in the last 20 years. It’s fucking maddening.
I never even received an email. I haven’t touched Minecraft in years, probably never would have again, but my daughter is getting into it and I thought it would be fun to play with her. I found out about the migration when trying to troubleshoot why I couldn’t log in.
I tried to contact support and they told me that they had “widely communicated the migration through email and social media” and that because I had missed the migration window, I would simply have to buy a new copy. I double and triple checked. No emails regarding the migration and I’m not on social media.
I highly recommend the book Red Shirts by John Scalzi if you haven’t read it.
They endanger more than just their own kids.
There’s a couple of short story collections on Kindle called Space Eldritch. It’s been years since I read them, but I remember enjoying them. A little on the pulpier side, but fun.

It’s a great watch on the subject.
Thanks for letting me know. I was able to pull out the proper link from the mess and edited my post. Please try it again and let me know.

If anyone is interested in the actual study, I believe this is it. Only had time to give it a real quick skim. Sorry for the nasty Google link.

“Austin Powers, his loins ready.”
They actually have a fairly comprehensive training program setup through their “University.” They also mix in foreign contractors, usually from China.
