  • I and my fiancee play Pandemic with our friends on occasion. We’ve played the game a lot and know how to do things, and our friends have basically never played it.

    I low key hate it that my fiancee doesn’t let our friends do what they want. Instead, she keeps playing for them: “Ok you should go there and cure that one block and use that card to fly there so you (points next person) can trade that card to him next turn”. Our friends just have a blank state and go “ooohhookaay” and do it and have zero idea why.

    I try to tell her that just let them play its fine if it is dumb decision, its fine if we lose. But she keeps doing it anyway! I always try to “beat her to the punch” and ask our friends what they want to do and if they don’t know maybe give few possibilities and let them decide and hope that my fiancee doesn’t interrupt lol.


  • No they didn’t, or don’t have to. I haven’t been trained by my boss almost at all, separate people train me on different processes. My boss leads the team, they don’t need to know all the details of everyone’s job and certainly don’t train everyone on everything on what they need to do.

    And while the team is their responsibility and what happens in the team immediately reflects on them, that is not the case legally speaking. Internally sure, someone fucks up in the team and maybe the boss gets canned or whatever, but they are not legally responsible of the entire team.

    Of course this isn’t true if the person the boss hires isn’t qualified to do the job and were hired because of money, or for instance if that person is way too overworked or are given inadequate tools to their job properly etc.




  • So wait. If I own a factory for instance and I am the CEO or owner or whatnot. I hire few people who are responsible in some parts of the factory. They hire people to do the everyday stuff, maintenance, IT, whatnot.

    Then someone torches the factory down during night shift and someone dies. They go to jail. And everyone above them go to jail because they happened to hire that person?

    Nah fuck that.

    Sure, if you don’t vet the people well enough and let someone who is not qualified do something and an accident happens and whatnot. Then the person who hired the person should be held accountable.









  • I always tend to think in rpgs what gender seems to fit the kind of a playthrough I’m going for. For some reason if I do something like wood elf ranger it would def be a female. Bulky warrior with a 2h axe? Guy. 1h shield paladin who smites the unjust? Guy. Someone with keen knowledge of the arcane that freezes everything? Female. Cloak and dagger assassin? Female. Pyromancer? Guy. Witch? Female.

    Sometimes I mix things up, like the paladin one. And sure, I also take personality into account which can switch it up.

    Haven’t played mass effect so no idea about rhe “classes” in it.
