People tweeting stuff. We allow tweets from anyone.

RULES:

  1. Mark NSFW content.
  2. No doxxing people.
  3. Must be a pic of the tweet or similar. No direct links to the tweet.
  4. No international politcs
  5. Be excellent to each other.
  6. Provide an archived link to the tweet (or similar) being shown if it's a major celebrity, figure or any politician. If you replace the "x" at their site with xcancel (so it beomes xcancel.com), and you're not on mobile, it will save video. https://web.archive.org/save is another great option. Archive.is is no longer recommended because they remove/alter content.
  7. If a tweet (or similar) makes a statement of fact, either mark it as "satire" in the body or provide the original source link backing up the statement

I've done jobs where I was legally not allowed to leave people unsupervised, so if my relief was late, I couldn't go home. I feel like that's also an exception to the 'late is fine' rule.

And generally the exceptions boil down to "you being late is affecting a fellow worker".

Office jobs, which is most likely what these Gen z are referring to, is very different from rotating shift work

Oh, absolutely. That's why I referred to it as being an exception to the rule.

Doesn't even need to be rotating shifts. I kind of work in construction (county archaeology) and if I am not there on time my boss has to wait for me to drive us to the site which in turn costs the construction company because they can only start working when we are finished
