    Yesterday, I (sort of) learned the phrase “implication arrows,” from which I learned that I should assume that this story is not true, though the arrows… Imply that it’s true. I still don’t really get it.

    Anyway, I’ve never held a job where the employer would do more than the bare minimum required by law if I disappeared. Certainly not so much as contacting my family unless there were extenuating circumstances like me verifiably disappearing mid shift. I suspect this is true for most people.

        I’ve always been skeptical of greentext (and most internet) stories, it’s just more fun to suspend one’s disbelief.

        I’m just still confused about the concept of “implication arrows,” heh.
