You steal $1000 dollars and the police look for you.
You steal $100,000 and the FBI looks for you.
You steal $10,000,000 and the banks hire you.
You steal $1,000,000,000 and the lawyers get you off on a technicality.
Ask Bernie Madoff how that's working out.
Yep, the socialists are totally into the idea of taking money from a bunch of poor people and giving it to one rich guy. You have their philosophy all figured out.
That may not be the sheep's philosophy but that's how it tends to turn out.
Not only experience.
Some of the old dudes also lift heavier tasks that might be to abstract for the kid.
But there is balance between flexibility of younger employees and the greater salary of seasoned employees.
It depends a lot on what your company does.
Well, dammit, I clicked the wrong one again. Can one of you kids get over here and show me how to delete this post and put it on the right thread showing that old people know how to use computers as well as young ones?
Considering it is a breach of contract suit, I'd be interested to see what the actual contract looks like.
Dude, the contract is a sacred secret that's never written down and you can't know it.
The funny thing about this is that Apple realized early on that people didn't want a crappy PC in their pocket - they wanted an awesome phone. Say what you want, but Apple and Google have done a great job of making a computer work well with the smaller screen and all that.
There's a market for this concept, I'm sure, but I don't think it's anywhere near the size of the smartphone market.
Naive.
They don't have to take it to court. They'll just ruin your credit score by reporting it and sell the debt to a collector who will hound you day and night.
If you want a judge to ever see it you're the one ponying up the cash to take it there.
They're required by law to show you what the bill is for or quit calling you. You actually can shut them down, but get a lawyer in that case.
Test codes: 105, 127, 164, to name a few. CPT codes: 87481, 87491, 87798 and others" and she really doesn't want to pay it until she understands what it's for.
1. It's trivial to look up those codes online, right? Putting "cpt code 87491" into Google shows that's a STD test.
2. I wouldn't pay it if the lab didn't explain it. Period. "She really doesn't want to pay it..." then don't. Call them up and tell them that they either explain it or you're not paying. Make them take it to court. That shit wouldn't last 5 seconds in front of a judge. Note that it wouldn't get that far - their attorney wouldn't let it.
People just need to learn how to play hardball.
I thought the Teamsters were more into the loading and unloading, and the drivers were often owner/operators.
Never heard of more than one person operating a truck at a time.
Laws define how long a driver can drive between mandatory breaks - basically making sure they get their sleep. Truckers keep log books that are legally required to be accurate and will be inspected if they get stopped by police. Falsifying logs is a criminal offense.
Some folks do what's called "team driving" where two people in one truck take "shifts" and drive non-stop (this with a sleeper in the cab). Often it's husband/wife teams. I've honestly considered doing it with my wife after the kids are out of the house and everything's paid off. Get paid to see the country with my wife - pretty cool, actually. Hemorrhoids, not so much.
So in short, this whole thing is bullshit. The current administration has already fucked up the ability of the US to leverage its most powerful peacetime strength - its market - to advance serious geopolitical goals around the Pacific Rim.
You know, I keep telling people that if they had only elected that "hope and change" fellow for President we wouldn't have shit like this to deal with.
*Altho many Canadians argue the Queen isn't their Head of State, her representative in Canada is (the Governor-General). The fact no Court's ruled on this definitively shows how important the title "Head of State" is in a Parliamentary system. Most legal scholars seem to think that the Queen is Head of State, but there is a minority that disagrees and their Constitution is not helpful on this question. But mostly nobody cares.
Given that she owns the entire country it's kind of a moot point. If they piss her off she'll just kick them out.
Totally.
Does the prosecution not have a legal duty to turn over potentially excuplatory evidence??
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E...
"In many countries, including the United States, police and prosecutors are required to disclose to the defendant exculpatory evidence they possess before the defendant enters a plea (guilty or not guilty)."
Yes, but there's no enforcement mechanism and no penalties - criminal or civil - for breaking this "law". It's a literal farce.
Imagine we had speed limits with no penalties. An officer pulls you over, says "you're going over the speed limit". You say "Yeah, so what?" His response: "you're not supposed to go over the speed limit. Other than that, have a nice day."
While the end result is that the average citizen gets fucked in the end (and not the way that makes you feel good and sleepy), how can you say that the US only has a 1 party system? Pick almost ANY topic and the parties are going to take polar opposite views of it.
Right, except for stuff that actually matters. All of them voted for the Patriot Act, bailing out billionaires on Wall Street, etc. The stuff that they supposedly fight over (abortion, whatever) doesn't affect the day to day lives of most people.
If I also said he needed to be fluent in Mandarin and Farsi, I've just written an H1-B for my candidate.
In my entire life I've never met anyone who filled that requirement.
Yeah, and that's the point. You know there are people who fill that requirement, just not a lot of them in the US.
Progressives tend to take a dim view of turning our country into a caste system. Just saying.
While simultaneously supporting policies that turn our country into a caste system. Something like 80% of the "Obama recovery" has went to the top 10%.
It's mind-boggling to me that anybody would use the word "Progressive" in any manner other than derogatory, anyway, given what the Progressives stood for 100 years ago.
Right... because running a different operating system would have stopped a 3rd party application from crashing. >.
Well, it's pretty likely that trying to run an iOS app under Android would result in the application not even starting....
