| schestowitz[TR2] | Hopefully you are really wanting to work instead of needing to work if you are over retirement age since if you still need the money and didn’t save and invest well over the years then that’s on you | Feb 18 04:55 |

| schestowitz[TR2] | It’s not clear why you think you don’t belong on PIP. You need to have full proof of that. Not sure why you mention disability and being at retirement age, neither gives you a free pass, Trust me I know. | Feb 18 04:55 |

| schestowitz[TR2] | If you’re going to fight, you better have documentation. Emails, witnesses, notes, dates, a paper trail. | Feb 18 04:55 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | You should find a lawyer in your state, as employment laws vary greatly by state. The lawyer will also determine whether you have grounds to file a complaint with the EEOC. You should know, though, that under this administration, the EEOC, which was already pretty neutered, is being gutted as we speak. No one is protected now. If anything, people are now being threatened with persecution for not being bigoted enough in engaging wit | Feb 18 04:55 |

| schestowitz[TR2] | IBM also does not care even if you have evidence of Alvind himself SAing an employee in the supply closet in Armonk. IBM has an army of attorneys just to fight wrongful termination claims. | Feb 18 04:55 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | It’s not about the rightness or merit of your claims; we live in a world where there is a profound imbalance of power, and it’s about to get exponentially worse because a lot of people voted for their own oppression and to remove the guardrails, to make powerful people above the law, even as they complain about how terrible it is and are negatively impacted by it directly. | Feb 18 04:55 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | Divorces are also expensive. Even if you get a settlement, and that’s a big IF, it will mostly be the lawyers who get the spoils. | Feb 18 04:55 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | You’re over retirement age? Be glad you lasted as long as you did. | Feb 18 04:55 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | Not trying to dissuade you, but go in with your eyes open. Good luck. | Feb 18 04:55 |

| schestowitz[TR2] | and the interesting posting and remarks about DEI at IBM seems to have disappeared. Seems that someone wants to change the clock back after the posting struck a raw nerve....LOL ! | Feb 18 05:00 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | Was it Alvind or one of his Pipmunks ? Someone is awfully sensitive when it comes to DEI and keeping the DEI flame burning at IBM. Raises and promotions should be based on merit .... | Feb 18 05:00 |

| schestowitz[TR2] | ive.<br /><br />For example, does the EPO need to take account of the particular (sub-)field of technology? If so, how do they determine the "ordinary meaning" for that (sub-)field? Also, what allowances should the EPO make for the fact that established (or "ordinary") meanings of terms can evolve over time? For example, should the EPO aim to establish meaning(s) at the priority or filing date, and ignore any su | Feb 18 18:53 |
