They said they had a hard time finding men who would cry.

They also didn't test women sniffing women's tears, or men sniffing men or women sniffing men, or animal tears.

They left a lot of variables out of this one.

10th amendment specifies exactly what you're saying, that nothing explicitly written is up to the people or states.

That is what the original intention of the states was, was to allow a diversity of systems under one overarching banner.

Cannonball run is 2906 miles. Assuming most of it is across highways at 65 mph, (a lot of the west is faster but the east is slower), you'd get it in about 44 hours. With a 10-minute delay every 300 miles you'd add about 2 hours for a total of 46.3 hours.

You want to stop every 16 hours of driving (since you don't care about DOTs 10-hour limit) so it takes you slightly less than 3 days. Or less than half the stated "week".

Any job with a clearance. Many of those just don't test in CA though unless they want you fired because otherwise they'd never be able to hire anyone.

305m is 1000 feet. The USS ENTERPRISE was 342m or 1,123 feet.

A modern day FORD class carrier is 1092 ft or 333m.

For personnel comparison, ENTERPRISE held ~5000 people and a FORD class has between 4-5000 people.

The fact that NCC-1701 only had like 1000 people is...a big difference.

Amazon denied that they were doing it as a company (of course they did).

Luckily, the union won this election and it was certified in january of this year

Since there's no minimum PTO requirement, yes but it has to be marked as sick time. Most employers in a state like California though know that they're going to be the bottom of the barrel if they don't offer more so they do.

Usually those other days though are just vacation days.

Most other countries have those days on top of unlimited sick time.

Most states don't even get 5, or 3.

The states that have mandates are (usual suspects incoming):

Arizona - 40 hours

California - 40 hours

Colorado - 48 hours

Connecticut - 40 hours

D.C. - 7 days

Maryland - 64 hours hrs

Massachusetts - 40 hrs

Michigan - 40 hrs

Nevada - 0.01923 hours per hour worked (works out to approximately 40 hours if you work a standard 40hrs/week, 52 weeks/yr

New Jersey - 40 hrs

New Mexico - 64 hrs

New York - 56 hrs

Oregon - 40 hrs

Rhode Island - 40 hrs

Vermont - 40 hrs

Washington - 40 hrs

Some cities/counties have their own requirements but I'm not going to list those. I wish the US did better on Healthcare, but, as with everything, it's the blue states dragging the country forward kicking and screaming.

Even if you know what you're doing, you'll probably go bankrupt after winning. Annuity is, as you said, a stopgap against stupidity.

You know what also wasn't a word?

Literally every word that is now a word.
