ID is like crack to cops

Clearly. Lol.

Yeah sometimes those regulators have a porous screen in them and that'll clog with shit and it'll make your pressure look right but flow will suck. We used to remove them before we installed new ones for gas lift systems and such. A flat head screwdriver and a hammer will knock it loose.

Use of the n word is up 500% since musky

Ah yes, I love watching it swing from red fascism to blue fascism and back again.

Congrats to UofM for not letting a 3-4 Spartan team ruin their season for once lol

Antifreeze is the real freeze...

Not so. Very few who struggle actually make it out of the rat race. Those who do, seem to want to maintain the rat race the most. These folks made it DESPITE the struggle, not because of it.

This is the kind of management mentality I'm talking about. You have to treat people like dogshit or they'll start thinking they're valuable or something, and we can't have that... And Twitter isn't a real business.

We're in a down cycle. Pounds went from 3k to 1k over the last 3 years. We're at the bottom. The poorly run ops are going out of business but the legit quality ops who saw this coming are doing just fine.

Cash flow isn't tight. We sell weed at a higher margins than almost every other industry. Soap companies pay better and THEY SELL FUCKING SOAP.

Why am I not shocked that the US is ok with fascists?

If we keep it up, we'll be union before '23 is over. Then they'll really fuckin hate it.

Happy workers are more productive. Productive workers make the company more money. We should pay people enough so they're not worried about the money and can focus entirely on the work.

No, it's not "just the way it is" and the resistance to higher wages really isn't about greed, per se. Some of our managers have massive contempt for our workers. These same people come from families who struggled and were dirt ass poor for generations. It's a weird phenomenon to witness. You'd think they would be more conscious of how hard it is to make it and how much little things make a huge difference to workers, but it seems the more they get comfortable, the more comfortable they are with watching others struggle like they did.

When did that happen?

Places that make and sell car parts and fast food pay as much or better than we do with a much lower profit margin. We can afford it.

I own a very small piece of the entire operation. I am one of 4 members of the executive/c-level management team. I also quit my job and spent my last dollar making a very risky go of it in the traditional market before being brought into the legal, licensed system.

There's nothing to get. We can afford to pay a lot more, but we don't because someone thinks that because they struggled, so should everyone. We should be breaking that cycle, not repeating it. It may even lead to making us a better company.

I expect others to do what?

Directly under me? $18.50 for someone who's been with us for a little over a year, would pay more if they would allow it. At the company? $15 for entry level folks. Not my choice, I would pay more, but it's not up to me, it's up to a guy who watched his parents struggle and struggled himself. It's one of those "I suffered, so you should too" kind of deals and I don't like it at all and have said as much.

I'm risking the health of my relationship with my long time business partners for people I don't even know, so no...
