No offense but this is just wrong

I'll likely mangle the explanation but this sort of policy does not fair well when there is a large divide between have/have-not and little/no social safety net.
If you are poverty level you will be forever stuck in this cycle: Ticket/fine, court, loss of income, etc. What might work is simply granting free access below a certain income threshold.
Drink (hopefully cold) water and cover up from the sun. I grew up doing manual labor in a climate like this. People adapt, but there are of course limits.
Children die sometimes being pushed too hard in athletics, etc. The majority of people however simply put up with it.
If you do not believe this statement, ask the opinion of any medical provider you know.
I recently ran a 24hr relay. There were absolutely those who drank/partied while they participated. They posted slower times and probably slept less. I didn't sleep as much as usual (because I was waking up to run every 6hrs), but I slept more, didn't party, ran faster than them.
Neither of us was right/wrong in our choices. I would have felt like crap if I had their habits, but maybe it doesn't affect them.
PS - During the process I was offered like 60% off if I kept the subscription.
This is a seriously underrated comment. While having sometimes dismal reputations, IT MSPs and (SWE, DevOps) staffing firms often having legitimate rockstars. Some of the best, most efficient engineers I have worked with were employed by these types of companies. This involves delivering solutions on time to the customer while retaining soft skills, often while being the enemy of the incumbent engineers.
That's also not to mention hopefully you never have to staff augment for junior-level tasks. Try hiring someone to correctly rack and stack an entire rack. You just end up re-doing it yourself or paying CDW to ship you an entire pre-assembled rack the next time.
As an SWE, this sounds way more fun.
About once a quarter I am subject to conversations where they remark condescendingly about how flabbergasted they are at SWE salaries. I stopped engaging beyond "Mmm if you're interested you should learn more about the field".
This interaction is beyond grating and is detrimental to our relationships.
Motivation taps discipline on the shower.
Florida native. Every person on the Internet loves to poo-poo Florida.
1000 people move to Florida a day. Every. Day.
Most of my native-born friends hate it.
Don't move to Florida, we're begging you.
"Tic-tac, sir?"
Once you spend a few decades in concrete houses, everything else seems cheap and suspect.
This is spot-on. I see this attitude often when there is a lack of data being exposed for observation and it "just feels" like ____.
How is this not the top comment? Underrated
While I do love Toyota this is simply not true. Pads for the B5 Passat start at $25 at Autozone.
No, it does not. This is how I view those who abuse this loophole. Find another way to travel that doesn't impact everyone else in the aluminum tube traveling 550mph.
