They said something along the line "we will hire refugees instead of veterans". Those a**holes.Believe which crap? That he resigned a month earlier? Or the veteran hiring through to 2018 being separate from hiring 10k refugees worldwide? Seems like nothing much to get outraged over. Believing that the the backing off CEO statement and firing said CEO is not related to the outrage the CEO statement caused.It's like saying that employee who badmouthed the company wasn't fired because of the badmouthing but for unrelated reason. It's a PR bullcrap and I thought any intelligent person can see that. Articles dated Dec 1 2016 have him resigning as of Apr 2 2017, so he wasn't fired due to this. Haven't found anything about them backing off though, they did pledge to up the number of veterans they'd hire in the respective project.Literally 5 seconds of search http://insider.foxnews.com/2017/03/23/starbucks-hiring-veterans-after-backlash-refugee-plan Yes, I mentioned that in my post. The refugee hiring project is still going, but will check on that later

That is a pretty neat solo at the end.

Seems he resigned before making that pledge, though, announcement was Dec 1 2016 that he would leave on Apr 2. His refugee hiring promise was in mid Jan. I do like this article, headline vs the correction http://conservativetribune.com/hire-10k-refugees-starbucks-ceo/ Not even sure how it was refugees over vets, seems like two concurrent initiatives also for all that is worth. Also that refugee hiring plan was worldwide.

Was funny coming out of my building to encounter some cop who felt his moment had come, yelling "GO! MOVE QUICKLY!" when we had only one way to go due to the police tape. Maybe he was worried the vault would detonate with the force of a 2000lb bomb

Civ 5 never held me like 4 or 2 did. Maybe the even ones are the good ones.

Transformer vault exploded near work so that was exciting. Hope no one was near the vent grilles when it happened, getting a whiff of that smoke would not be pleasant.

Shame DoW 3 seems to be kind of meh. Guess that's joining Civ 6 and DX:MD in games I will grab in 3 years at a huge discount. Probably should finish Cosmonautica's story at some point, mostly grinding away with cash. Need to find a place that makes medicine, that'll sell like hot cakes,

Did they? I thought Starbucks just shrugged at them, especially as it wasn't immigrants/refugees over veterans in the first place.

Yup. Also Spicer opens that bottle of JD again at his desk.

Finally saw Logan, it was ok. Certainly ran with the R rating.

Maybe they are thinking of good on a social level. Or some specific legal definition of "good cause"

Thanks, it should be ok, they tested the lipomas and none were cancerous, but they are double checking. Other than him having a good portion of his body shaven (the skin underneath is so soft) and post surgery aching he should be back to his imperious self in 3 weeks.

Dog had surgery yesterday, so got him back today and have to plan for the aftercare.

I recall https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MiG_Alley_(video_game)- makes sense as that is an interesting era for air combat, jet aircraft but before guided missiles were prevalent - and probably are wargames for it, at least with a scenario or two.
