People tweeting stuff. We allow tweets from anyone.
RULES:
- Mark NSFW content.
- No doxxing people.
- Must be a pic of the tweet or similar. No direct links to the tweet.
- No international politcs
- Be excellent to each other.
- 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.
- 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 had a specific exception for if you're relieving someone.
I recognised this exact issue in my original statement.
"If you’re relieving someone, they might be annoyed if you’re late but nobody is going to die or anything."
That's not how I read this. I read this as you suggesting it isn't a real problem.
It's not a serious problem. Needs of the one vs needs of the many and all that.
It's still discourteous.
But at the same time, people who do that kind of work, generally understand how annoying it is when their relief shows up late, so that kind of thing usually works itself out naturally.... Or the chronic late person ends up needing to find a new job.
