I haven’t had an employer for a long time, but I think it was biweekly.
I await the day (in two to four years) when I no longer have an employer and I get to decide what’s interesting enough for me to do.

Interesting- the U of Washington just had a giant payroll modernization project fall behind schedule and budget in part because the couldn’t implement a switch from twice monthly to biweekly paychecks.
Those changes are big. When New Mexico State U (my former employer) made a change in its HR software, they had to switch to paying faculty and staff twice monthly because the new software couldn’t accommodate paying some classes of employees monthly and other classes twice monthly. If memory serves, union contract negotiations required that represented staff be paid twice monthly. We faculty were told we’d be coming along for the ride.

Yeah this was a typical clusterf——. “Just use an off the shelf solution like a real business” …millions of dollars later… “oh it turns out the university is not like a business and is really complicated in ways we didn’t expect”

A poll like this just has to scare them into making the bullshit stop at this point.
It’s infuriating to think that his handlers knew what an idea he is and still foisted him on us.
Ironic because Columbus is, I believe, the only place where the territorial US was invaded over a land border by a foreign army, Pancho Villa’s. The town was burned to the ground.
And they’re still not afraid of Mexicans! Get stuffed, Trump!!
The great thing is you can take on a ton of stuff or do as little as you want and sleep in while figuring it out. You’ll also find the old saw retirement is six Saturdays and one Sunday is true when you find yourself unable to identity just which day it its.

I might not have that problem. I track my meds in a really geeky way – I can do this because I’ve only got three. I set the bottles up and count the day number in binary. If the bottles are UUD, it’s day 4, which is Thursday, and I’ve taken my meds for the day. Tomorrow if they are UUD and it’s Friday, I know I haven’t taken my meds…
My husband does something similar. Lines up the pills for the next day on the night table so he knows when he’s downed each med and won’t duplicate. Me, I’m reckless and just take my three in the a.m.
There are 9,000 Texas families of government employees, plus a large number of families of other Texans dependent on the Federal government, who are not getting the first of the checks for the work that they normally do, and that some are now forced to do.
And Traitor Chump wants to have money for hurricane relief diverted to his wall.
-
Had Texans known before the election that Ted Cruz would sit on his hands while Traitor Chump was starving out thousands of Texas families and diverting hurricane relief to take land to build the pointless wall, how likely is it that he would have been re-elected?

John Cornyn is the #2 person in the Senate. He also is sitting on his hands. Other things being equal, what are the chances that Texans will return him to office in 2020?
The first question is of course rhetorical. But Beto O’Rourke did not lose by that much. The second question remains to be seen. But …
And the same applies to Florida, another state in which the Republiscum barely won the senate and governor’s races.
And there are Republiscum congresspeople in state after state would should feel the trump scared out of them.
Hey, when George Soros is backing you, cloaking technology is expected.
NPR had a story from McAllen and mentioned that the city has a banner saying “Safest City…”. When asked about it the interviewee stated that they are in the midst of a 30 year low in crime. So much for all that crime folks from south of the border bring with them. She mentioned how they depend on cross border labor, etc and with their economy rolling along will suffer if more border walls are built.

Assume you mean Begich over Sullivan in 2020 in AK.
Stacey Abrams beating out Perdue would be a hoot for GA. Her decision on running expected by March end.
I think Begich would beat Sullivan statewide if he ran, yes.
I believe you are missing the point.
These poll numbers are effecting how R-Senators will decide how far to support Trump.
And if they know about Nate Silver’s “interesting work,” I’ll eat my hat, and yours.
They did - the local theater put it up on their marquee. Local news did interviews of people from the area who all said this is a nice place and not a hell scape in so many words.

With their new majority, Democrats could bypass Trump’s Justice Department, which has the authority to enforce or toss out congressional subpoenas, by subpoenaing Mueller himself to learn what he knows.
“You would think Mueller would be in a cooperative mood under those circumstances,” said Kurt Bardella, a former GOP aide for the House Oversight Committee.
“Either [top House Intelligence Committee Democrat] Adam Schiff or Judiciary or Oversight or all three — I would imagine they’d do this jointly — would issue a subpoena for all the documents that Mueller had in possession at the time of his removal,” Bardella said. “It would have to be a subpoena because it’s classified information.”

Mr. Nadler was on Maddow for an interview a few weeks ago, she put a question to him about the investigation being derailed and no access to Mueller’s findings being allowed. He explained in greater detail than I did that he and his committee would ask him to testify before it. It gives me hope.
