[05:18]	schestowitz[TR2]	Personally, I'd suggest that your "RA chances" would be dependent on your own situation. In the US at least, federal law prohibits the direct targeting of someone for action based on a disability. However, that goes both ways...a disability will not protect the employee from an action that is applied to a broad class of employees. All RAs impact hundreds or thousands of people, so a disability will not necessarily help or hurt you.
[05:18]	schestowitz[TR2]	Realistically, IBM will protect itself. If the employee is good enough, they'll keep the employee despite whatever disability they have. If the employee isn't good enough, or they cost too much already, then that disability just gets factored into the decision-making as something like "potential for excessive medical costs". You can guess what that means.

[09:56]	IsambardPrince	schestowitz[TR2], Now we have a US government site that's just embedded tweets.
● Feb 13
[10:02]	IsambardPrince	"In the past 48 hours, HHS canceled 62 contract worth $182 million. These contracts were entirely for administrative expenses none touched any healthcare programs. This included terminating a $168,000 contract for an Anthony Fauci exhibit at the NIH Museum."
[10:02]	IsambardPrince	LOL
[10:04]	IsambardPrince	schestowitz[TR2], The irony of this is that Fauci was also responsible for a lot of the bungled federal response to the AIDS crisis in the 1980s.
[10:04]	IsambardPrince	So they deleted his exhibit at the NIH saving $168,000. Terminated his Secret Service protection too.
[10:05]	IsambardPrince	They've "never had to give a public health official a Secret Service detail".
[10:06]	IsambardPrince	They never had one that ruined the economy and worked with China to unleash a horrible disease designed to kill the elderly and disabled before either.
[10:10]	IsambardPrince	schestowitz[TR2], I posted to someone on Reddit:
[10:10]	IsambardPrince	"You have no idea what kind of shape USCIS was in when Trump left the first time.
[10:10]	IsambardPrince	They pretty much choked off its revenue, left it to fail, passed a bunch of new regulations designed to make it almost impossible to adjust status or naturalize unless you were "rich enough to attend an Eyes Wide Shut party", and added over 500 useless pages to most of the petitions that served no purpose except to run up legal fees for people who had to pay a lawyer, and even started rejecting forms where people didn't put N/A in 
[10:10]	IsambardPrince	every blank spot that the form told them to skip.
[10:10]	IsambardPrince	Worse will happen this time."

[10:23]	IsambardPrince	18% interest? That's probably the lowest APR on a credit card they even make these days.
