It’s not technically an arrest. In a high-stakes call, the police will typically detain everybody until they can figure out what’s going on. That means potential victims as well as potential attackers. It’s a safety measure.

My company went remote first in April 2020. Even if I left here, there’s no way in hell I’m going back to an office.

I built a kit car, painted a penguin on the side, and forgot to include the telemetry module. Oops.

I think I’ll travel somewhere else.

Sony lost me many years ago when they decided it was appropriate to include a PC rootkit on an audio CD. This only lends weight to that decision.

Garbage. I’m over 50 and I’m not worried.

I know for a fact I’ll be working till the day I die.

If you bow without rhythm you won’t attract the worm.

Not really, but since I’m not going to find any solutions here and people have it worse, I’ll leave it at that.

The least amount? 20k US would halve my credit card debt and give me a leg up on getting the rest paid off. 40k would give me a jump start on finally rebuilding. Given I’m in my 50s though and with the state of the world, I’m likely to be making credit card payments until the day I die.

And you’re an inflexible, unfeeling waste of cells. I hope for your sake you never have to deal with chronic health issues. Somehow, I don’t think you’ll be able to handle it.

Could be worse. They could have picked Orlando.

How about this - your position is that a chemical burn from concrete cannot reach third degree? That it doesn’t happen fast enough to cause that damage?

Let me use your vernacular.

Bullshit. (Warning: NSFW)

If you have a coherent rebuttal, I’m happy to listen. If not, Johns Hopkins has a good page on the subject.

The “degree” is based on the amount of damage done to flesh, bone, and skin. Each type of burn has different criteria, so yes, a third degree chemical burn will be different from a third degree flame burn, which will in turn be different than a third degree steam burn.

The United States is a first world country, and the parent comment applies here as well.
