COVID outbreak blamed for Sydney Airport chaos A COVID wave through Sydney Airport's control tower has left airlines furious and passengers stranded.

In my experience, the general public often don't understand the extent to which critical infrastructure systems rely on very small groups of highly-trained individuals.

Editorial: Erasing transgender Americans Trump’s attempt to remove people from public participation, public service and public consciousness is bigoted and un-American

The Times Union editorial board: “Trump’s attempt to remove people from public participation, public service and public consciousness is bigoted and un-American.”

Hello, does anyone here know a lot about court proceedings in Scotland and is up for having a quick background chat with me today please? 🙏

Union busting attorneys train supervisors on what to say to persuade workers to vote down a union. Whether you are a bus driver, a nurse, a tech, or a call center worker, employers will hire union busters who will train supervisors in this anti-union script, or “playbook.”

Translation:
"Apple bets on precariousness and hires 20/24 hours a week. Then it abuses the use of the extra hours that should be non-standard, and makes them a routine thing. If they are routinely needed, it is because more workers need to be hired."
