    This gets downvoted but it hits the truth, though maybe in macaber way.

    Why do we blame cats for killing wildlife while its ok for humans to pave huge pieces of land with concrete and brick or kill biodiversity with pesticides and farm equipment? Maybe humans are the problems, not cats? Or is everyone here living off the grid, does not own a car and produces their own food? Ah and if you have kids you have no argument at all.

    Eh that’s regional still, like in dutch we’ve changed the meaning of old imperial words to be equal to metric quantities, though probably used more common by older people. So 1 ons (ounce) = 100g and a pond (pound) is half a kg. But this is mostly used at a butcher. For other stuff we mostly just use the metric nomenclature.

    I really don’t like this kind of stuff… I became part of a company(through acquisition) that would do the evaluation through a buddy/mentor. So you had to write your 3 goals of the next year, etc… and your buddy would present them in an open meeting (all mentors were there). The first ‘evaluation’ i only wrote as my goal, to look for another job. My poor buddy didn’t enjoy that, neither did my boss apparently. Yet still to this day i never spoke with that supposed to be boss…

    How they would ever think evaluations hold any value when they are disconnected and open to everyone that’s invited to the meeting is beyond me. I guess it was just basically so your buddy had to tell you you didn’t get a raise and you couldn’t even ask why not, because he wouldn’t know.
