looks like Francis is wrong, and not a Catholic nor a pope

> I don’t want to work at this company anymore so I quit, I just don’t feel like working here anymore

Seems ok for the employee to quit “at will” so why not for the employer?

It’s sincere, I don’t think people are thinking through what they’re asking for

I’m not particularly “vindictive” but these are the kinds of cases where capital punishment / death penalty seem justified

You just can’t do it like that, because you woke up grumpy that particular morning

That should be fine though, that’s freedom of association, why force people to work together who don’t want to do so?

the “valid reason” is you don’t like them, why would we want to force people to work together who don’t like each other?

Yeah I often see people discussing minimum wages and living wages, this was a different concept I stumbled upon for people to think about, which makes sense for society to consider because if workers have families they’re not simply trying to earn a “living wage” (enough for them) but also enough for kids and/or spouse, etc.

family wage: enough to support a whole family by one breadwinner (traditionally thought of as an individual male; even with dual breadwinners you could still have an idea of how much a “family wage” would be that pays for the costs of the whole family)

living wage: enough to support an individual

minimum legal wage: legally allowed minimum to pay per hour (I don’t know how common it has been for a minimum wage to be enough to raise a family)

I do think it’s good to create a healthy culture that respects workers, but I don’t understand why being able to fire an employee is a bad thing

Imagine you’re not allowed to fire people you don’t like who you think are doing a bad job at work

if you try “leftists (or liberals) more likely to be mentally ill” in a search engine you see things like:

American adults who identify as politically liberal have long reported lower levels of happiness and psychological well-being than conservatives, a trend that mental-health experts suspect is at least partly explained by liberals’ tendency to spend more time worrying about stress-inducing topics like racial injustice, income inequality, gun violence, and climate change.

handicapped spots

if they’re not being used, maybe they don’t need to exist?

I’ve seen people say it’s kind of weird people want the “handicapped” to be both treated equally and have special parking spots?

Marriage is the sacred bond between a husband and wife which may allow for the biological production of children, as God created people male or female “in the image of God”

It’s therefore impossible for two people of the same gender to marry as it is outside of the divinely constituted institution of marriage, and the encyclical discusses at length the beauty of the matrimonial union

Higher-ups in the Church would therefore of course not sanction unnatural unions and would insist upon relationships that satisfy the mutual longing of man and woman

it’s no big deal if if doesn’t functionally prevent anyone from getting in and out and if it’s just a quick move

“press X to doubt”

not entirely sure why either, could be bots or I tried to post in gaming communities and maybe it’s not thought to be a (video) game so then those posters followed over here
