Alfred: I'm afraid I don't have any open positions right now available
Danny: There isn't? But what about the ad on Gotham Job Connects saying a nanny was needed at Wayne Manor?
Alfred: I am unsure how that go on there but I can assure you, no one here put up that-
Damian: Excuse me, are you Daniel Fenton?
Danny: *Blinks down at child* Oh um yes I am.
Damian: Excellent. You're right on time for your interview. Please follow me.
Alfred: Master Damian? You put up a ad for a nanny?
Damian: That's right.
Alfred: You....want someone to care for you?
Damian: Heavens no. I'm searching for a nanny for the real child of the house. I know you're overwhelmed with the day to day duties running the household and didn't want you to have a heart attack from the stress. A professional nanny would lift the load off your shoulders.
Danny: That's so sweet that you care so much for your staff. Who's the child you want someone to help take care of? You're baby brother or sister?
Damian: My father.
Danny: .....
Alfred embarrassed: Master Damian....why would you-?
Damian: Richard says Father acts like a child, and children need minding if they make idiotic decisions too often.
Danny: .....
Alfred: I'm terrible sorry about this young man. I'll reimburse any millage you wasted driving out here.
Danny: No, it's okay. I-
Damian: The pay is fifty dollars a hour. Eighty hours every two weeks. We cover all benefits such as medical, dental, vision and auto insurance, and lodging can be provided if needed. Depending on how long we need your services I'll set up a retirement fund for you matching your bi-weekly pay.
Danny: So I would be like a in home caregiver? Most of my experience is with children but I'm sure I could handle your father.
Alfred: Master Damian!
Damian: *Hands Alfred a piece of paper*
Alfred after reading it: How soon can you start sir?
#dcxdpdabbles#dcxdp crossover#from a fic i never wrote#Damian hires Nanny for Bruce because he acts like a child#The paper convinced Alfred.#Eventual Spirt Halloween#Danny doesnt know whats going on byt thats too good of a job to pass#Dick is cackling#He said that in anger not knowing Damian took it to heart#Damian Head of the Union Wayne

Love the contrast between the Americansâ âApolloâ and the Sovietsâ âSputnik.â You got the Americans naming their rocket after a Greek god trying to communicate the grandness and importance of this rocket. And you got the Soviets naming their rocket âfellow traveler.â Like a friend you go on an adventure with together. This rocket is our little friend lolÂ
#i think its cute#they took the mars rover approach#humanizing the space craft making it cute making us (me) project emotions onto it#the soviets also used imagery of laika in propaganda a lot#which is pretty fucked up imo#but if i grew up in the soviet union that shit wouldve definetly worked on me lmao#the narrative of a heroic little dog going to space and being honored by the whole country#as cruely wrong as it is its very appealing#the soviets knew what they were doing man they didnt reveal how laika really died until like. the 2000s#bc they knew people really cared about that dog#they liked the narrative around her

same people crying about ups drivers winning $42/hour are the same people who dismiss unions and say they just take your money and don't do anything for you. Bet you'd like $42/hour!!!!!!!
#not to discount the experiences of workers like those part of the national nurses united union#who are working to unseat corrupt and ineffective union staff who have not been representing their members#but a union is made up of its members and if you dont like what your union is doing there are avenues to get involved#also! a union's power comes from its membership numbers. if youre working at a union site and youre not a member. well.#why do you love management so much#and if your workplace isnt unionized. well. there hasnt been a better time in a century to get started#henry speaks

God I love the episodes of Leverage that are like âyes Eliot is working class. yes he grew up surrounded by trades people and âmenialâ labourers. yes he knows so much about those jobs and will ALWAYS support those workers and their job choices.â
Because itâs something that really does set Eliot apart from the other characters. Like, Sophie is all about the finer things in life, and even if she did ever grow up poor or around labourers, she doesnât exactly respect that life style. Sheâs all about getting away from that, if she ever was that lower class, which I donât think she ever really was. Nate is Office Worker tm, just in vibes. That man has never seen a shovel. And while Parker and Hardison both went through the system, theyâre both very city centric. And I mean, Parker has never once thought about real jobs or anything, ever. And Hardison definitely has a bit of a thing about age of the geek, and def starts out looking down on âmenialâ jobs.
But Eliot, throughout the entire show, is very much all about that. The mining episode in particular is such a favourite just because of the respect and care for these workers that Eliot shows. And I really like how different all of the leverage characters are, not just in skills but also in backgrounds, and how those backgrounds affect how they treat people. Eliot comes from a family of workers and a community of workers, and he holds those people in such high respect.
#leverage#unions#I know that there are more eps like this but rn my brain only says the mining episode#cuz I just watched it#but this is in fact what happens when you have both a leverage obsession and a labour rights special interest#eliot spencer

Hello Madam. Sorry Madam.

#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#wei wuxian#lan wangji#madam jin#jin zixuan#jiang yanli#'Hey what is WWX trying to do here?' some kind of grab-and-twist maneuver that would be very upsetting to watch.#I know LWJ technically assists WWX in this scene in terms of blocking someone's blow on his behalf -#- but let's be honest.

My favorite thing about former dock worker Optimus Prime with megatron who doesnât know is that you can get an interaction like this:
Optimus: âI was a dock worker before all this, I miss being treated normallyâ
Megatron: âA-you were a dock worker? How?!â
OP: âYes, I was. It was the class I was built intoâ
Meg: ââŚWhat!!??â
OP: âWhy do you think I was called âThe Peopleâs Primeâ?â
Meg: âI donât know! I thought it was some ridiculous title to earn your favor with the lower castes! How did you even get the matrix then?â
OP: âAlpha Trion thought it a good idea to take the matrix on a stroll through the docks, primus knows why. One minute Iâm moving crates, the next the matrix is flying at me like a holy scrapletâ
Meg: ââŚâŚâŚ.â
OP: â3rd wildest work shift everâ
#maccadam#optimus prime#megatron#what were the other two incidents that puts the matrix at 3rd? Idk#I just love this thing where megatron realizes OP wasnât some aristocratic towers mech#heâs a union man

when people refer to canon story-relevant kingdom hearts games as âspinoffsâ it makes me sad not only for the obvious reasons i always say but also bc like man i WISH this series had spinoffs. imagine what they could do if they had permission from nomura to truly go off the rails and ignore the greater canon for a second and just do some fun whimsical plotless thing in an alternate universe. imagine a fishing/boating game on destiny islands. kh fighting game. it is an injustice that we have been deprived of kingdom karts. can anyone hear me
#in terms of alternate gameplay and lack of reliance on plot#i feel like melody of memory is the closest thing kh has actually had to a spinoff#but even that is important in its own way in the end#union cross to a certain degree as well what with being an online multiplayer gacha type game#its original concept i would definitely classify as a spinoff game#bc it was set in a totally different world and time period and was supposed to be about customization and fun with friends#and nomura or someone said it wasnât meant to be connected to the plot#but then like. he did very much go and give it a plot. like he went back on that almost immediately#and even then. given that the game is still very much combat and exploration#even from the beginning can it really be called a spinoff? itâs just kh in a different format#iâm talking like a game in which the objective is something totally different.#racing game or cooking game or fighting game or (another) rhythm game#ace attorney style detective game. dancing game. dude i donât know#there are so many different flavors they could go with here#alas nomura is allergic to genuine whimsy which is hilarious given that this is a disney series#like he apparently was like âohhh should we really let sora in smash? would it make sense in the story?â#my brother in christ surely weâre not supposed to interpret this as canon to kh right? right????#i guess itâs just that the kh franchise has a very specific pristine vibe he wants to maintain#which is disney shenanigans as a seasoning on top of a main dish of Stone Cold Serious Anime Plot#kingdom hearts#kh#mine: kh

Kingdom Hearts Union Ď - Daybreak Town
#kingdom hearts union x#khux#daybreak town#scenery#my gif#i was unable to play this game during its run time because i didn't own a phone#and then when i DID get a phone the app wouldn't work. never even got to join a union! i'd be team snake#wish i could have explored this town. it's so quaint i love the purple rooftops and soothing music#i had this post (and many others for this game) prepared in my drafts for quite some time and was going to start posting them-#after i finished replaying through the series. but i think i'll post them early on behalf of the khux/dr app being recently-#delisted from the app store. dunno what's going on with that but it's very unfortunate#so i'll be peppering these in between other posts

Kitty as someone in a government position whose division is currently in the middle of a multi-year project where we are migrating essential software from old and busted to new cloud version of same software I cannot express how seen your post made me feel. Especially as the youngest supervisor in the group I keep asking questions and just get âidk man thatâs what we doâ and Iâm like ââŚshouldnât you know why though? If you does someone know why this is done?â (The answer is no, no one knows why this is done)
yeah i left out the detail that i'm not corporate because of my concern that post would escape containment and context. but know that the details i changed were actually even more horrifying in their original form. like. realizing that this was what they'd been doing this whole time absolutely floored me with the implications.
the thing IS that this was just the upgrade from the old version of this company's software to the cloud software. we have another team helping us migrate from a different company onto theirs for actual financial software, which is taking longer.
BUT the migration team actually asks for our processes so they can map them better, and when we train they'll be doing it onsite from the ground up start to finish. with the upgrade team they started with the assumption that this would not be necessary because we already use their software. this was incorrect.
basically i think if any organization is using sufficiently dated software it's safe to assume that they have deviated significantly from best practices and even if you're 'just' doing an upgrade your training should start from zero instead of assuming any familiarity whatsoever. if they ask for feedback on the upgrade i will probably tell them this in as diplomatic terms as i can manage.
#original#boring work stuff#don't get me wrong part of it is that coworker doesn't want anyone to know how to do their job for job security#but i suspect another big part is that they don't want anyone to realize that they have never known what they're doing#we have a union. you have seniority. your job is so fucking safe. please can we get some documentation.#this is the best possible time to cop to ignorance to save face and relearn without baggage. they won't do it. but they should.
