"Contract-to-Hire" = 🖕
@makyo@snouts.online @mawr as one of the river tribe’s hourly members, the 15$ minimum came with a limitation on future awards of restricted stock units. It didn’t remove any employee protections as far as I’m aware, though. But having also been on the contract-to-fire merry-go-round, Mawr assessment isn’t wrong.
"Contract-to-Hire" = 🖕
A recruiter contacted me for a "contract-to-hire" position and I gave them this response:
>>Thanks for the opportunity, but if McGraw-Hill is looking for someone to invest their skills in them, they should consider hiring full time employees instead of bypassing worker protections with baiting terms like "contract-to-hire."<<
"Contract-to-hire" means you're hired as a contractor and have no rights or protections. It's a bait-and-switch. Fuck any company that does this.

Activism, personal involvment, energy levels
I wish I could be more militant and outraged. I just don't have the energy for it. Sometimes, i worry about being thought of as a traitor or something cause i'm not posting screeds or shouting online, or even worse, not going to protests and rallies and such.

re: Transness, HRT, Coming out, Email management, medical mention
@Motodrachen Its the timing of the thing that i'm having the most trouble with. I'm worried I won't feel its the right time until my dad has passed. I'm the most concerned about what his reaction's going to be.
@Lanceleoghauni big amen
re: Transness, HRT, Coming out, Email management, medical mention
@Motodrachen but I might! And Dads about to go in for shunts surgery so he can get on dialysis. (Kidneys are what give out on his side) and my brother has been hitting them with his own queerness, and, and, and *flails, panicked dial-up noises, quasar static*
