It was verified by another passenger, Trump just got the name wrong. He's probably also exaggerating the situation for dramatic purposes

The helicopter needed to land because of turbulence and instrument malfunctions. They weren't in risk of crashing. Shortly beforehand, there had been a helicopter crash in the area, which influenced the pilot to take "safety first" landing. Trump went right into another helicopter to continue his journey...

Anyway, I fully understand the need to land and why passengers including Trump were scared shitless, but it's really nothing to brag about.

I almost got hit by a car yesterday. It was on the road and I was on the pavement. Close call.

It's existentially dreadful.

Wasting your life commuting just to sit in a chair for 8 hours only to get paid barely enough to pay your bills for existing in the first place is a convoluted prison when you know that you have so much more potential, which again is also hindered by the same mechanisms that allowed you to turn on the TV and pretend that you lived today.

Sometimes you need to break out of the comfort zone and find another job or take some risks by stirring up trouble where you are. It usually pays off better to do so either way, instead of pretending that the comfortable job gives any kind of job security. There's really no such thing as a stable job. You only work somewhere until you don't.

My wife set the clocks ahead of time, because she knows we're always late.

We're always late because she thinks we have time to go, because she sets the clocks ahead of time.

I guess she has to make up.

I heard he treats people so well that they don't need a union. /s

according to reports circulating on the Chinese social site Weibo.

More context.

Also I can't find an actual source for the story.

This is obviously better than Russia, but it ought to be a wake up call to remove dependency on gas altogether.

Just for the record: McDonald's, Burger King, Subway, KFC and Starbucks all have collective agreements in Denmark.

The funny thing is that when employees are unionised and getting paid fairly, they can spend their time working on serious stuff instead of constantly fighting against being exploited.

The professional and successful companies know this well enough. It's all the personally owned shit stores that think the owner himself can outsmart everyone by stealing nickles from their own employees to finance the underbidding of other companies and thereby delivering a shit product. Grow the fuck up already.

Quality work is done by qualified people who takes enough pride in their work to join a union of people who does similar kind of work, instead of winging it like a poorly paid servant.

They can change the terms, but if you don't sign the new terms then you have never accepted the new terms.

For some reason, companies think they can write anything into their terms and think it matters. It doesn't. Most contracts aren't worth the paper it's written on.
