Paywall, but the bit I did read seems to suggest that she thought she was going to get financial aid from the government, and the government changed their mind. There might be some kind of immunity for the government in this case, but if it

> students should learn touch-typing I agree, but I wonder how not knowing how to spell would affect that. The highschool kids I work with, are not great spellers (nor do they have good handwriting).

It's infuriating when I have to use a chatbot, and it pretends to be typing (or maybe looking up a pre-planned generic response or question)... I'm already pissed I have to use the damn thing, please don't piss me off more.

If you're shipping the package from the U.S., that is incorrect. I ordered Amazon packages addressed to me on U.S. Navy ships. Ships have FPO addresses which are treated and formatted like a domestic ship.

FAA to Air Traffic Controllers: Constant 6 day workweeks it is then. (my opinion, not FAA opinion) It is cheaper to pay ATC overtime than it is to hire new controllers. I imagine it would be similar in a lot of other industries.

Texas: generally the cost of living is low. However, if you live in one of the four largest cities, like 2/3rds of the state's population: - You need a car to do things (lots of financial distress there no matter the state). - Ho

Having lived in Honolulu for several years, I'm quite surprised that Hawaii is last on the list for "financial distress". Although maybe they're just better at leaving within their means, which is very hard when salaries
