My favorite interview experience was at a company that listed the expected salary on the job posting. Then when the question of my salary came up I told them I was happy with what they said they offered in the ad. It was in line with other ads for similar positions. That was not the right answer. They said that if I was actually passionate about the company that I would have made a low offer to save the department money. I remarked that I wasn't an employee yet so the department and companies wellbeing wasn't one of my priorities. I didn't get the job, although I wasn't upset I didn't.

As a person with access to only "affordable therapy", I approve this message.

It depends on enforcement. Where I live it's pretty strictly enforced. I do wish the big fireworks show was on the edge of town rather than in the middle of it but I still want the show. Just as responsibly as possible.

Sure when you set the goal post that far away you're right but by doing that you've made your argument so pedantic that it's just not worth arguing against. In practice at some point the variance is so insignificant and we can just say it's a right angle. If you want to maintain the position that it's not a perfect right angle by all means you're welcome to do that. I'd say, that piece of bismuth is close enough.

Amen! I may not believe in a god but if I did, it's obvious that land was not meant for humans.

The best case scenario his name falls to J.D. Rockefeller and is mostly forgotten except when as an example of obscene wealth.

Worst case he pulls an Alfred Nobel and does one sort of good thing he's mostly remembered for.

Good choice. The administration is on a tirade trying to find someone to blame for this whole thing. Don't fuck around with blue epoxy right now and find out. You're only putting a target on your back.

Yup, can attest. It sucks. Unless the application is listed on our approved app list I can't even request it. Let alone the months it can take IT to get around to installing it for me.

I mean, from the outside looking in the USA has a conservative party and a fascist party. What America says is left wing politics the rest of the world calls centrist.

Not only that but Toyota as an example does a lot to localize their products. So for example, a Toyota built in the Northern parts of North America will have better winterizing. Whereas a Toyota built in a coastal area like much of Japan will be resistant to salt water spray.

While OP is trying to imply that Toyota is selling crap to American's because they think Americans are so stupid they'll never noticed, the fact is that a car built for Japan will not last as long in America as a car built for Americans.
