A long time ago someone in the paper industry said if you care about jobs never click the paperless billing option:francis:
I get it. But getting 5 sheets of paper and an empty envelope mailed to you just for a bank to communicate one simple update you could've read on a screen in 5 seconds is wasteful

Unnecessary clutter

Not saying fukk’em but fukk their employers. Besides the terrible smell especially after rainstorms, I’m sure there are other environmental problems that they’re responsible for causing such as water pollution and the waste produced. And them shyts is never on the white side of town

TYRONE GA!
That paper plant was probably one of the biggest employers they had.

I know that joint used to stank. I could smell it all the way in SC when I used to visit
The smell from the one in Georgetown SC on our way to Myrtle Beach from Charleston was 😖

Could always tell when we got near Georgetown

Country is falling apart in our faces. History will not be kind to the idiots who allowed this to go down. And no amount of apologies will matter. The end of the this country is near. Greed, Cism, lacknof empathy and morality catching up. Was a "good (sic)" run

I don't disagree with you, but I never click it.

trump's trade war is a massive failure, but it hasn't kicked in yet

and since he's too stubborn/stupid to change course, and surrounded by pussies who won't talk him off the ledge, the damage probably kicks in next year. good for the Dems

When cacs say "the economy is growing", they're talking about the market, specifically like 5-8 tech companies in the market. The market has and never will be a reflection of our economy; its mostly an indicator of economic trends. The market operates on speculation and expections on what publicly traded companies will continue to be profitable in our future.

But that all together and "the economy is growing" is slick way of saying, "tech is killing it right now so lean into the wave if you want to keep your head above water". That's excellent advice of rich people.....virtually useless for the majority of the humanity. It hard to see now since the techo fascists are forcing AI companies into everyday life.....why Trump wants the US to own part of Intel...why they want the Fed to lower interest rates....more money to throw into tech to cover tech costs.

Wages aren't keeping up with living expenses, boomers are retiring enmass, immigration is slowing down, rising goods/services prices, people aren't having children, utilities prices going up, cars aren't affordable, public transportation is trash, AI is trying and failing to take our jobs, everyone is in debt, no one can afford higher ed......but Google scored a deal to open a new data center/whitey on the moon.

Good thing I turned down a job offer and interview on two separate occasions from them a couple of years ago :whew:

In one of them, they wanted me to drive 8 hours to do an interview for a position I wasn’t even guaranteed to get.

8 hours?
Do you even live in Georgia?
They have plants all over the country.

The Memphis HQs I had the offer from has done mass layoffs. I turned that one down because I couldn’t make the interview.

In the second instance, they wanted me to drive 8 hours to Southern MS for an interview and no guarantee of the job. It’s why people turning it down due to that and the location.

I have insider knowledge about this. The government also wanted the land and the company was made a very a generous offer so they obliged.

Messing up thousands of lives in the process, I know many folks personally who were affected.
