The reason it's relevant is that most working people do not earn salaries, they earn hourly rates. I'm a welding engineer earning a salary, working with maintenance men and welders and operators who all earn hourly rates. Every company I've ever worked for has both salary and hourly and also an HR department.

The situation you are describing does not align with the vast majority of working people's experiences.

Not defending either side, but how often do hourly employees get raises based on performance at your wife's company? You say performance should lead to salary increases, but what about the majority of people who only make hourly rates?

Fired for any reason is "at will employment" you can leave for any reason but also we can fire you for anything that isn't protected.

"Right to work" is even worse than that, it means that you get all the benefits the union faught and clawed for without having to pay dues. As in you have a "right to work" without any pesky interference between you as an individual and the multimillion dollar company

Pretty sure almost all the matter we can interact with does produce blackbody radiation

I've always had fun trying to say ever letter in most words. Like that french knight in Monty Python, "I blow my nose at you, so-called Arthur king, you and all your silly English k-nnnigggets" which is hilarious to me because french words dont use like half the letters in them usually

My wife does that, I'll ask what she want to do "next weekend" on like Wednesday but that doesn't mean the coming Fri, Sat, Sun to her, that's "this weekend"
I can't deny it does make sense to me somewhat, last is previous, this is current, and next is the one after current, but next and this for weekends are the same until you get to Thursday in my opinion.

I have an air purifier that is stupid bright, I tried painters tape but ended up using the aluminum foil tape to block the lights

The first Dark Souls was 2011. Diablo was released in 1997. World of Warcraft was 2004 and while you didn't quite drop all your stuff and money you die you did have to run back to your corpse to keep from having all your stuff degrade and cost a bunch of money. The first Sonic was 1991 and getting hit makes you drop all your "money" and have to pick it back up.
