  • Being fired on the spot hardly ever happens. Usually the problem is that employers demand additional work for no increase in pay or better working conditions while maintaining a toxic or outright dangerous work environment because they know most people won’t quit or even complain. That goes double for immigrants who are either undocumented, and have little recourse, or need their job to maintain their visa. Being fired on the spot sounds sort of quaint compared to what we usually see happening in American workplaces.






  • If you have those desires, it’s probably because you’re bored and want to alleviate the boredom. Helps to have hobbies that are cheap or free, and spend time doing them instead of thinking of things to buy. Also, odds are, a lot of your money is going to food and drinks out of the house. If you’re enjoying time with friends, go for it, but try to keep track of what you’re spending out of the house. A few meals and drinks here and there add up faster than making the occasional fun purchase.

    This is in addition to the boring personal finance stuff, which you should also be doing.




  • I like Bozeman as Zephram Chocoran’s home base because there’s a good chance that Montana might have been spared a direct nuclear strike. Same logic applies to why San Francisco looks so futuristic: it for sure got flattened entirely by a nuke, so they would have had to build it back up from nothing afterwards. I’m guessing the Golden Gate was still partly standing and they rebuilt it for the same reason we keep other historical buildings/monuments around.

    No idea if any of that is canon, but if we aren’t overthinking Star Trek then why are we doing any of this?
