I'll take a wild guess that he maybe wanted to build distance between himself and the phones, especially if he does this repeatedly. For a few phones, radiation and tissue heating is not an important consideration but for 100 phones it might be.

What's the point then? And what should satisfy the op? What would be enough?

It's heavy but I still miss when greentext got honest like this. I feel like there's very few places left where people are "anonymous" and express their deepest thoughts.

Whether true or not, thank you for sharing op. I hope you got some help.

Why do you say so?

I don't like that comment by op. This structure is pretty standard and I think it's clear that if the manager was the problem that the options to discuss with higher ups or 3rd party HR are also there. Their comment that 3rd party HR is there to protect the company is also only a half-truth as letting these issues run rampant is a huge liability to the company itself (as we're seeing right now). HR would not doing its job properly by pushing issues like these under the rug.

Even worse, saying that HR always takes the side of the employer is a meme that discourages employees in bad situations from pursuing their very real options. This perception could have continued to her situation. If HR doesn't do their job, you can always escalate further.

I think the point is that the fear of not being able to get it out easily would lead your jaw muscles to clench up. So somebody would have to basically trick you into thinking that the imitation is real.

The majority of airplanes are equipped with HEPA filters. As in, removing 99,97% of particles over 0.3 micron in size. The unfiltered air is fed in from the outside. It's pretty clean and not a consideration for allergens like peanut particles.

This is a critical piece of the puzzle and I love that you pointed it out. Bare necessities aside (shelter, food, etc), we start out with a set of win conditions (from parents, friends, etc), but ultimately we can determine them ourselves. In most democracies, nobody can tell you how to live your life.

Connect is perfectly fine. I just used sync for a long time and like some particular things about it (e.g., being able to jump from one comment tree to the next reliably and quickly).

Why single out Bernie Sanders then? Aren't there a million people that have access to even more "luxurious" things that a majority can't afford?

What's so special about him?
