Well, I mean, that’s a bit redundant innit?
Of course they are well preserved, they were in the well.

The best part is they knew about sleeping in tents, and some were miffed that they had tents to sleep in.
Like, I understand they were billed as luxury tents, but…a tent is a tent is a tent.

Good thing McDonalds employees are barred from speaking to any form of media regarding their employment. If they’d like to keep their job that is.
And McD’s bread and butter is financially unstable, dependent and low skilled employees.

Sorry, working for McDonalds tends to skew your view of corporate America.
I did five months, my wife was upper management for six years. She was fired because she didn’t go to work after ex landed her in the hospital after beating her senseless.
The person who fired her was her BiL.
So, again, tell me how awesome corporate America is?

Oh, there will be PR a plenty.
The store will be reprimanded though, I can assure you.
Especially if they were told by their management to close. If the AGM called and said close the store, and they instead kept it open against a direct order to close it, someone just may lose their job.
Double especially if any of the food was served.

Real talk - they’ll likely be reprimanded by their RGM, and the RGM will need to sit in on a meeting about why it’s irresponsible to allow non-employees into an establishment for an extended period of time.
The employees will likely be compensated in the form of a stern talking to during the middle of a lunch rush. The solace can be found in a store manager having to repeat the conversation six times while swapping employees out.

As others have said, exhaust rather than intake.
Use a 230MM exhaust fan to pull as much out as possible, and if you’re willing, add two small 50MM case fans to create intake at the bottom.
You could also stick a bowl of cold stones near a natural air intake to the cabinet during gaming sessions.
Additionally, if there’s a way to command the Xbox fans to run at a constant speed rather than ramping when needed, it will allow for a more continuous temp control.

It’s messy, but the languages allows wiggle room in an at will employment state.
I’m busy now, but the federal labor department spells it out pretty clearly.

In Minnesota, discussion of wages and earnings is not against labor laws, but your employer can stipulate no wage discussion while on the clock, which is where most employees get together.
It’s a fucked system, and if you ever shied away from the discussion of wages, you aren’t helping the situation.

Acknowledging the bad past, and doing something other than refusing not to play is a good way for progress to happen.

How in the blue fuck is this uplifting?
Sugar in the US was made possible by forced labor and a tragically bloody path carved through Cuba starting in 1899.
We are responsible for such an immense amount of suffering, this is like slapping a dirty band-aid on an already gangrenous wound.
Empty and meaningless.

I ain’t mad at ya baby.
I think if you replace the shorts with the watch-v or whatever, it converts to a regular video.
I don’t know though, I saw that while scrolling a day or so back.
Yeah, after a search, if you replace “shorts” with “watch” in the url, it forces the regular media player.
BUT, I meant the format in general. It makes for shitty content, and shortens the collective attention span.
You all good my guy, again, I ain’t mad at ya.
