It varies by industry and job type. This is a dumb LPT.

How about voting so you don’t have to struggle heating your home?

Reply to comment by Accomplished-Cress72 in LPT Request: What are some ways you’ve found that makes cleaning showers/baths the easiest? by Accomplished-Cress72
It keeps the walls and floor cleaner for MUCH longer. I take the 30 seconds or so to do it. I still clean the fixtures, and wipe everything down once a week but I'm not scrubbing soap scum.

I'd have to see what data you're basing this on, but it's also very different between industries. A part time worker in retail will have a very different experience than someone working in an office. A LPT should certainly take this into account, as burning PTO that is also your vacation time is just dumb.

Ok fine. I was speaking about U.S. companies. But let’s just both agree to disagree.

No but I know sick days aren't the same everywhere
How can it be by fiscal year of company when some countries mandate sick days and when they roll over?

There is a somewhat broader classic LPT that may reduce one’s exposure here: Don’t lend money to friends. Give them gifts, or don’t.

This has worked great for me. I also got a waterpik and it gets out so much stuff my electric toothbrush didn't. I don't want to ruin the work I did so I just dont eat.

If you watch them and enjoy it you can donate, but I don't think you should pay people if you stop for a second. Plus more and more people are scamming out here, you don't know who you're helping.

Showing art to "basic" people can be painful, unless it's photorealistic or traditionally "beautiful". The art I make tends to be more abstract/graphic/urban, and usually deals with complicated subjects like consumerism or subversion. I know that what I am making is very good, because I am an objectively critical person filled with self-doubt and because I occasionally have people that are very knowledgeable about art give me meaningful and validating compliments/critiques (ex. "this could be in an art gallery"). Yet when I show it to family and friends, they tend to give a superficial reflexive response, "that's nice"... Not everything needs to be Bob Ross, charcoal sketches of pets, people! No, my art isn't meant to be hung above your $400 walmart sofa, it's meant to be hung above a $15,000 roche bobois. Well, that's life on the prairies for you... You can really taste the distain here...

Music mostly, people fake playing instruments all the time, or singing.
