IME if you have to suddenly pay with a card due to the person with the cash not showing up, you can, but you have to call the pizza place and read the numbers over the phone and it’s a whole thing. Make sure to tip well (preferably with cash) if this happens.
i mean this in semi-seriousness: i think ruth could learn a lot from galasso’s style of management
1) show up, have a clear mission statement, and ensure that everyone knows what their roles are and what they need to do
2) leave everyone alone except for when you are directly needed
3) hire adequate support staff so that you are rarely needed
4) rinse and repeat
i mean except for the third one that is mostly accomplishable. intern in trying to take over the world, ruth!! it’d do wonders for your work experience!
Tia Nadiezja
That’s basically what she did. It went poorly.
zoelogical
yeah but she wasnt chill about it
you gotta be chill about it and not…………..threaten people’s femurs.
Abel Undercity
Yes, Galasso is noted for his chill.
zoelogical
honestly the best thing he did was leave the floor to whoever would make themselves in charge. which happened to be amber, who is also not chill, but also managed to turn herself into a competent manager?? primarily because he spent all his time in the back office making plans to take over the world and not on the floor threatening people
the point being: on the scale of galasso to ruth, galasso is way chiller than ruth. which was the point.
Well, when I went to college we had to either attend the floor meetings or give a valid reason why we couldn’t. Valid reasons usually consisting of having a class or exam at the time, previously-scheduled conflicting event, or similar. I don’t recall what the ‘or else’ bit was, but I think it may have been not being allowed to stay in the dorms after that semester.
When I want to college, once the cloying kiddie games of the (non-mandatory, though I didn’t realize that until it was over, dammit) freshman orientation were over, we were treated as adults and mostly expected to comport ourselves as such. I don’t recall any floor meetings and don’t remember the names of any of my RAs. Come to think of it, I barely remember my roommates. Dorm was where I slept.
Makkabee
I don’t remember my RA’s name, just that he made mushroom soup for us one time. It was pretty good.
we didn’t have floor meetings, EVER, so I’m actually p confused about this whole aspect of the comic
Sarda
Other than the very first one at the beginning of the semester for going over the rules and such, I don’t recall there even being one a month. They tended to only happen in the case of needing to talk about a change or event or announcement that they needed to ensure everyone was aware of, rather than simply posting a flyer or sending an email. Certainly not nearly as often as they’ve been happening in this comic.
I don’t think so. Last I checked, the US actually has a decent Greek Orthodox and Russian Orthodox population. Then again they’re both situated in cities that are more well known for other ethnic minorities, so maybe we did?
butting
Here in NZ, in a small town, I had flatmates who were Russian Orthodox and Serbian Orthodox (not at the same time). They’re far from limited to the territories (or even ethnicities) that they emerged from.

The Russian instance was distinctly icky. This was around the time when Tsar Nicholas II was canonised, and hearing the stories of what a glorious and righteous and holy man that bloodthirsty taintwad was… ick.

Aside from its popularity in that region Orthodox Christianity has as much to do with Russia as ancient greeks had to do with naval warfare. Sure, they became very adept at it, Athenians in particular who had supremacy of the ocean for a while, but they learned the art from the Phoenicians.
Orthodox Christianity has its roots in Constantinople, the part of the Roman empire primarily inhabited and thus governed by greeks. Even after the fall of the western section of the empire, the faith persisted in the west and the east. As a result of cultural differences and the power struggle between the Pope in Rome and the Patriarch in Constantinople, they would often separate, but always reconcile shortly after.
Until 1055 when they split for the final time and never got back together. THAT is the point where Catholicism and Orthodoxy officially separated. Russia wasn’t even a minor factor in the process.
Schol-R-LEA
As in “didn’t exist as a nation”. My understanding is that the original Kievan Rus (who later divided into the groups which became the Russians, Byelorusians and Ukranians, along with several smaller groups – but not the Kosaks, who were Tatars that had been part of the westernmost holdings of the Golden Horde and settled in Crimea around the start of the 14th century) were Viking settlers who sailed up the Nieman, crossed Belarus, and sailed down the Dnieper, eventually ending up in Kiev, where they assimilated into the Slavic population in much the same way their cousins in Normandy did with the Frankish population there around that same time.
IIRC, this started only a generation before the Great Schism, and was still ongoing process at the time.
Schol-R-LEA
I should mention that the Kazakhs are more closely related, ethnically, to the Crimean Kosaks, hence the similarity in name.
Trolldrool
The Rus, or at least the rulers among them, were most likely viking conquerors and settlers from the region today known as Sweden who would go on to raid the lands of (what remained of) the Eastern Roman empire and later served as mercenaries that provided the military force needed by polish nobles to solidify their dynasties. According to some polish archaeologists anyway. I don’t know if the russians agree or have a different version.
Either eay, you are correct. Russia itself did not exist at the time. The vikings spoke of a swedish empire in the east called Novgorod (Kinda. Vikings themselves did not divide themselves into Danes, Svear or Northmen until after long periods of contact with foreign realms.

Because the religious conflicts that shaped the country’s early immigration and subsequent religious traditions and related laws and rights were primarily Protestant/Catholic in nature, and tended to sympathize more with the Protestants. We didn’t start getting large influxes of Eastern Orthodox until… what, late 1800s?
thejeff
Barely ever really. Looks like Orthodox is still well less than one percent of the population in the US. Not even really enough to trigger serious prejudice like Catholics faced.
Cholma
Protestants also “feast” on the body & blood of Christ. I’m not sure where your distinction is coming from. I was raised Lutheran, and part of the ritual is “take and eat/drink, this is my body/blood, given/shed for you.” Is this not true for all Protestants?
As for Orthodoxy, I’ve never heard used except for “Orthodox Jews,” which I guess is a more… hardcore/strict form of Judaism? (I’m not a student of religion, and don’t really pay attention to religion of any kind, except to note that Chicago news media LOVE to talk about the Pope and the current Catholic Cardinal based in Chicago. Seems weird to me; they never focus on any other churches)
Arian
Yes, but Catholics (and, I gather, Orthodox versions as well), have a doctrine called transsubstantiation, whereby the bread and wine literally become the body and blood of Christ in the Eucharist. Its nature is actually altered by being consecrated, even though it doesn’t appear that way from the outside.
Protestants, in contrast, regard the bread and wine as symbols or stand-ins: reminders of the Last Supper and of Jesus’ words, rather than miraculously altered substance.
Cholma
Ah. Interesting. Thanks for the clarification. Those wacky Catholics!
yomi
So, back in medival time (around 1000 AD iirc) disagreeances between the Christians in the Eastern Roman Empire and those in western Europe (Papal State, Holy Roman Empire and the like) about things like the position of the pope and the filioque in the credo became big enough to cause the shism between the Orthodox Christian Churches in the east and the Roman Catholic Church in the west. Both Roman Catholics and Orthodox (as well as Old Catholics (and I guess Anglicans and and Episcopals, given that they have church communion with the Old Catholics)) believe that bread and wine truly becomes the body and blood of Christ, but the dogma of transsubstantiation is only a Roman Catholic zhing, for Orthodox and Old Catholics it is simply a mysterium of faith.
vlademir1
Some branches of Protestant denominations which are not from the Calvinist line (Calvin and later followers of his views out and out reject(ed) much of the preceding traditional liturgical model) also support transubstantiation, they are the minority in their modern context (both within their denominations and within the wider Protestant community) even if those denominations hew closer to Catholicism liturgically and theologically.
All the old churches carry forward this view in common because it dates back to the earliest days of Christianity when it was first generally deemed acceptable for gentiles to be included in the Christian sacrament. The Eucharist and with it transubstantiation were given a prime place at that time as theologically it implied any person, regardless of their background, entered into physical and spiritual union with God through the body and blood of Christ. That in turn helped overcome the hangups about them not all being of “God’s chosen people” which was a thing because Christianity was at this point still just a minor sect of Judaism which it would have remained had they not followed a path of accepting gentiles.
See back in 1054 A.D. there was a schism in the church referred to as the Great Schism, when the Pope excommunicated the Ecumenical Patriach (the Patriach of Constantinople and the only other one of the Pentarchate in Christian hands at the time) and the Ecumenical Patriarch returned the favor at the bidding of the East Roman/Byzantine Emperor. This was the final nail in the coffin so to speak of a break that was three centuries in the making based on local culture variations, some minor doctrinal differences, and a power struggle over who was actually in charge of the church. In the Western (i.e. Catholic) point of view the Pope, as the successor of Saint Peter, was the ultimate church authority. In the eastern (i.e. Orthodox) point of view the Pope was merely a first among equals among the patriarchs. This lead to Christian Europe experiencing an east-west split, with most of the southern Balkans, much of modern Romania, and modern Ukraine, Belorussia, and Russia siding with the Ecumenical Patriarch and Poland, Hungary, Germany, France, Italy, the British Isles, Croatia, and the parts of Scandinavia that had been Christianized and the parts of Spain that had been reconquered from the Muslims siding with the Pope.

It’s still more complex than that. The body of the original organized Christian Church remains today in three groups. The Oriental Orthodox which split from the Church in the fifth century and has been a separate subset with a hand full of denominations since (the Coptic Church being the best known on the world stage). Then the Eastern Orthodox and the Catholic which split in 1054 as you said. In the last century or so, all three have been working hard to reach an agreement between them that brings them all back into communion with one another despite their overall fairly minor theological quibbles.
Marsh Maryrose
Are you saying that the question of whether Christ has two natures or just one nature is a “minor theological quibble?”
The Chalcedon split happened mainly due to bad wording in the final document. Due to translation issues the Oriental Orthodox Church assumed that the council was trying to force a Nestorian viewpoint. Meanwhile, the council itself thought that the Oriental Orthodox Church was Monophysite when they were in fact Miaphysite, which actually isn’t that different from the official church doctrine. Chalcedon was a huge mess of a council.
