I had to give this a google, the lawsuit failed - The tribunal judge stated that “disability discrimination occurs when a disabled person is treated less favourably than a comparator who is not disabled. Those who do not have a disability cannot receive 75% of salary for their entire working life without having to do any work,” therefore “it follows that the non-disabled [employee] is treated less favourably than the disabled, not the other way round.” He received £54,000 a year while on the 12 years of sick leave. Originally absent from work due to mental health and then 4 years later due to advanced leukaemia. My thoughts are that IBM have a very patient and generous disability plan and I worry such use of it may cause them (and the industry) to make it less favourable to people moving forward. I agree with the courts ruling.
Tbh I'm still learning about what is going on, but I have seen some interviews a while ago mentioning that there was a severe lack of water in the fire hydrants and the city is designed in such a way that should the wind blow in a certain direction, fire could travel unchallenged... unfortunately this reality has been realised. Given its foreseeability, you'd hope that the Chief Fire Officer would forward plan for such a glaring safety issues, but no one looks good in the lens of hindsight... really feeling for people, seems like a fire that can't really be stoped until a natural fire break is present at this point. I'm sure all issues will be politicised, but I just hope a thorough inquiry is done when things eventually settle and some serious learning points are implemented again, this frankly shouldn't happen.
IS eye contact the kiss of shy people?
So it turns out a service many YouTubers have been promoting (Honey) to their audience actually stole affiliate revenue from themselves. Is that a nasty backfire of the tendency influencers have to promote anything without investigating first as long as there's money involved?
