I'll probably switch for a bit, because I love the idea of being able to listen to a book for a bit, then decide if I want to continue or not. Often times I'm an hour in and the book just doesn't resonate.
The problem is that now Amazon curates what I can listen to much more specifically. I dislike giving them more power, but in reality if I'm paying $8 a month for a service I will much more likely listen to something for free rather than spend >$15 on something that isn't covered in the service.
From a managers point of view I can only see this working if there is a PAR job manual and some monitoring software and or cameras to guarantee if we pay for 8 hours we get 8 hours of work.
What type of work are you doing? I would think you want to measure output, rather than hours in a seat. Is this some type of customer service type of job, where they need to answer phone calls?
You should be firing anyone who is not getting the job done, no matter how many hours they are working.
Why would you care about how long it would take? You don't have to watch it to completion!
Because I need to do more than one load. If you want to do a load of laundry every day, it wouldn't matter, but my family always does a few loads in a row once a week.
How is "gluten-free" an advantage outside of the ignorant hipster circlejerk?
There is a growing number of people with celiacs disease and with nonceliac gluten sensitivity. I wasn't able to find reliable numbers for nonceliac, but 1% of people have celiacs. There is no wide spread agreement on the increase, aside from better testing. My wife is celiacs and it is a major PITA. Many bread type items that are gluten free suck, so any more options there would be great.
No, your point is wrong because the only people who have the legal right to do it are terrible at doing so. That is, the police regularly kill harmless mentally ill people they've been asked to detain for their own protection.
You'll need to back this up with something. We'll need a number of times the mentally ill are detained and the percentage of times those people are injured or killed.
And you seem shocked at a WHOLE HOUR. It's not that much, especially if you can combine it with other things like commuting or shopping. And if you're really stressed for time you can do a shorter, but more intense, workout. Most people have enough time though, just the wrong priorities.
You could also find something you enjoy doing, so that WHOLE HOUR turns into ONLY AN HOUR. There is a curve to getting into physical activity, for example many people hate running at first. But if you're able to push through so you can run a couple of miles without feeling like you're going to fall over, you'll find you may actually enjoy it. There are tons of things you can do that are fun that have the side benefit of being exercise. Just put some effort into it and find something you like.
They are called computers simply because computation is the only significant job that has so far been given to them.
