I hate people who decide after dealing with the first problem caused by a lack of a rule that hasn’t existed for however long things were going on before the problem that it calls for a very general rule to prevent it from ever happening again. And somehow these assholes often end up in positions where they can set rules like that.
Zero tolerance policies in schools are another example. Suspending a kid for making finger guns isn’t going to prevent school shootings. Banning nicknames isn’t going to prevent anyone from ever insulting someone. It’s just lazy and comes from a desire to reduce complex situations that require thought and maybe complex solutions to simple situations that don’t require much thought and have a simple solution.
Nothing wrong with very general rules, as long as you pick the right ones.
Don’t bully people. Don’t be an asshole. Don’t use or threaten with violence. Etc.
Even better are general positive rules: Be nice to other people. Be kind. Give constructive feedback. Etc.
General rules aren’t great when they end up banning benign things along with bad things because they are too broad. Like no nicknames vs don’t keep using a nickname if the person asks you to stop.
Yes, that’s why I said “as long as you pick the right ones”
I hope Rectal Grease can get that stick out of her ass.
Should be fairly easy with it being nicely greased up. :-P
That just means the stick got in deeper in the first place.
Plot twist rectal grease is their actual name, they were trying to call them Reese to avoid saying it.
That’s mid news, the news news is we can no longer slap each others butts for the gags during night shift because one dude is too sensitive not even a slap on the back nor the shoulders is allowed now. Ruined the good ol’ lols of the nightshift fuckin new supervisor.
