Under the Carpet - by Kenth Cound

 This post was originally made on June 27, 2024 but it is now modified to remove names Senior Legal counsel and My assigned legal counsel from PIPSC, so as to preserve the integrity of the arguments. My assigned legal counsel from PIPSC, screwed me over.   It occurred on a day in May 2023. He may have gotten directions from PIPSC senior legal counsel to throw me under the bus any way he could.   It was a great arrangement since legal did not want to represent me since they considered me to be an unsavory member of the union steward contingent.

  Thinking is comprised of chemical processes producing physical reactions in neocortex neural pathways. These events lead to strengthening of associations between adjacent neurons reinforcing the likelihood that they will be used again should the need arise. In this model synapsis are prone to replicate since the basic structure of the neocortex does not change radically from day to day, while it also allows for the principal of plasticity. The mind is a function of the human brain organ. It processes information. It does so at the rate it is received by my senses.  This rate may be seen as posing a number of limitations.  We know of two opposing phenomenon namely mental overload and boredom. These occur in the neo-cortex at a rate determined by an individuals memory functions. Information arriving faster than the mind can make sense of is supplemented by processing in the amygdala that reconstitutes information and fits its results into a framework developed over time and often ref

Based on my experiences, I believe human beings are guided by principals. These can be as simple as pleasure and pain; maximize one, avoid the other. For the most part we have a concept of a friend. People or a person who will be counted on if the pain grows to be unbearable or your pleasure become too elusive. We have empathy in our friend. By contrast we can only hope, at best for a degree of compassion from our enemy. I was told by a wise person who shall remain nameless, that I should not look for friends in the workplace. In hindsight those words made sense but left a great deal of human endeavor to be void of humanity. Reducing work to a sterile experiment. In my pedagogy I learned that there was a good argument for equality of the sexes, both in the workplace as well as in the home or other so
