I think it's also crucial to ask who financed these endeavors.

Did you not watch the game yesterday?

I agree with you fully. The fact that certain states are still so far behind with paying a wage under $3/hr is archaic and needs to be shamed until it is brought up with federal/region standards. That said, the biggest problem wit

I didn't say that. My point is that people who excel at their jobs should have the ability to be rewarded. Do you disagree?

True, but at the same time not every bartender makes a great cocktail, or cares to. If people want service levels to race to the bottom this is the way to do it. The main problem with the DD model is that they're asking people to decid

This is awful. I didn't know people felt or did things like this rather than focus on the level and quality of their own work.

'Color Added Freshness' was the most surreal term I ever saw posted on a piece salmon in the supermarket. Not sure I've bought any since.

Parden? I'm talking about people getting promoted into positions they aren't qualified for and sinking companies. I really don't care about your sex, race or who you like to invite into bed. I'd rather be on a winning te

I'm saying it doesn't seem to matter if they've been mentored or have the proper level of skill to perform the tasks. That said, why should someone more senior train someone to take a job they themselves should be getting?

Regardless of skill or experience, they seem to be getting promoted over other more qualified individuals, anyway. At least that's what I've noticed in my places of work over the last four years. I'd hate to tell you how many

Yes, they will receive back pay, but a lot of people live paycheck to paycheck.

And live in NYC? That's poverty level.

If officers who put their life on the line in the most populated/congested city for 150k are overpaid, then I'd like to talk to some software developers in San Francisco.

How do you propose anyone will have a MVP within a day? Which is the purpose of this event. I mentioned giving them a month to develop and build some level of product and anticipation for what it is they're proposing. Nothing about cal

Give them a month, then maybe you could call it a 'start-up' or something substantial. It would also help build some level of anticipation.

A budding and vocal DNC personality with access to all the information which was gathered gets murdered at 4AM in the streets in a 'botched robbery', someone who championed Bernie, and was in a position to out how Clinton (and the

I suppose you're referring to pizza-gate. I'm also assuming you did zero digging into that narrative on your own. Keep eating that gov't cereal from the MSM.

by walru 8y ago
No.... that's only because this has gone against the narrative you wish existed.

I've still yet to see any quantifiable data points which say how exactly the elections were swayed due to anything Assange was a part of.

And because a journalist wants to protect his source (aka. Seth Rich/his family) we have people calling him a traitor and worse. Sadly, this is one time I wish he'd put down his integrity and finally unveil who delivered him Hilar

Nothing lasts forever. The bigger you are, the harder you'll fall. The clock and mindset and innovation of Apple products has been alluding to a sea change for years, these things don't happen overnight.
24.
by walru 8y ago
That would require a complete and total culture change. As it is, and I know Apple has a war chest, the clock is ticking on their survival.
25.
by walru 8y ago
It was likely a bit of both, but there's one thing that can't be denied, apple products are built for form over function.

The Fed is responsible for the savings rate of the average American, which is to say, it's absolutely worthless to stick your money in the bank and watch it grow, which would help starve off what they're talking about here.

You wouldn't be paying $6 for a 'craft' style cocktail anywhere in the US. A 'craft' cocktail usually has 4-10 ingredients and a garnish that compliments the flavor - usually through your orthonasal senses. It'

Then you're not going to 'craft' establishments.

by walru 8y ago
Not necessarily. If they aren't specialized in that field and just an order taker.

by walru 8y ago
If you're headed to a craft establishment, $2 is the norm now. (aka a drink that has 4-10 ingredients, not a vodka/soda)
