> You don't PIP a lower performing staff unless they're completely useless or toxic to the environment, you just find tasks that suit them better.
This assumes management is competent and well intentioned.
PIPs can be used for more nefarious reasons, like firing a good employee you don't get along with if you need to convince upper management. Set unrealistic goals then fire them for not meeting them.
Cosmopolitanism is bad because you are rooted in nothing while thinking you are rooted in something that does not exist. Patriotism is not merely proto-fascism because it does not lead to fascism, and it has been a bullwark against it.
Simple patriotism isn't what I read Chesterton to be referring to here. Patriotism leaves space for cosmopolitanism, but this passage sounds an awful lot like the "blood and soil" of fascism. I don't know anything about the Chesterton, just going on what you've quoted which seems to say love England or leave it.
Is this a valid complaint? I hear people talking about "cosmic truth" all the time. I've participated in plenty of dorm room discussions and online debates about religion and the nature of things. The upshot seems to be that we're all free to come to our own conclusions, and given the inconclusive or unpersuasive arguments, we end up with idiosyncratic beliefs rather than orthodoxy. Is Chesterton just nostalgic for a mythical time when most people believed roughly the same things?
I don't think OP is talking about a mere title change when asking about career changes. I've had lots of different titles when I change companies or old titles become unfashionable, but only maybe one career change.
Yes but it's just frustrating because in theory these APs are great—WiFi 7, 6GHZ mesh backhaul, 3x 4x4 MU-MIMO radios. But it feels like there was no QA put into the firmware and it struggles with reliability.
It sounds like you're unfamiliar with the split between the news desk and the editorial desk, two separate functions in the same org. Last I checked the Fox News news desk was a pretty reliable source of info. All the editorial programming on the other hand, wackadoodle partisan hackery.
Having a viewpoint isn't a sin. The SCOTUS justices are allowed to rule on cases from a political viewpoint - even if it's euphemistically called a judicial philosophy - so why hold podcasters to a higher standard? At least they're upfront about it and you know what you're in for. That's what people say they like about the president elect.
I agree, but that doesn't stop us from missing someone when they're gone, like a friend who's moved far away. The difference is that death is so final. There's absolutely no chance to call them or visit them. They're just gone.
