It is a matter of being treated like a criminal first.
Yeah, how dare they.
While we're at it I think it is an invasion of my rights to be treated like a criminal by having to pass through a metal detector in order to enter a federal court house. Also we need to do away with police laser/radar guns because the police have already decided to treat me as a criminal by checking my speed. Oh and background checks for handguns, wtf? I'm no criminal I should be allowed to by a gun no questions asked and no waiting period. Anti-theft devices in stores, same thing. Security cameras, ditto. Also I particularly dont care for my neighbors having locks on their doors, they trying to say I'm a thief and am going to steal their stuff as soon as their backs are turned?
We can no longer endure these indignancies. Don't they know we should all be treated as infallible saints until we can be proven otherwise.
Oh and the whole being arrested and then having to defned yourself in court is a sham to. They should have to prove my guilt before even being allowed to arrest me. How dare they!
'Snews to me. What do we pay pilots for, then? To make soothing announcements over the intercom?
There's a big difference in what automation is capable of and what the public will accept automation doing. No one will object to having a plane capable of landing itself (to avoid situations such as in all those 70's "the entire crew ate they same thing and are deathly ill" movies) but see how many people you can get into a plane if you tell them there is no pilot.
Arrr lameness filter, she be a b*tch tonight. (said of course with the voice of the Captain from the Simpsons). Still too lame. Can I trade off some of my karma to be able to pass the lameness filter? I'll even read a Jon Katz article if it will get it through. Junk Junk Junk, I got more junk than Fred Sanford.
First off, do your employees read/. ? If so they amy be thinking they're getting $1500 and feel ripped off now if they don't:)
Next, think about the future from their point of view. Unfortunately $1500 would seem great to them now,. But if you can't afford anything next year will they feel slighted? I'd include thinking of next year (and what may not be there) in any equation. The difference in thinking you're getting $1500 and getting nothing vs thinking your getitng $300 and getting nothing can be quite significant.
Don't just put money in their pockets. You have a small company do something for their families, have a really nice (but not extravagant Christmas dinner) with the families invited. This will help your employees feel closer to one another, and make them more likely to stay.
Definitely look at using some of the money to grow your business and make that part of their present. It's great if things are good now, but it's better for them to be good for the long run. But make the imporvements something that your employees can see as benefit to them. (Not advertising for god's sake).
Wrap it all up together and give them their checks and annouce how you're going to grow the business at the Christmas dinner. Give them a feeling of security and belonging to something special as well as cash to buy things for their families.
P.S. Congratulations on putting yourself in a situation to be to do this for your employees.
Ummm sported by the cart? I don't think so. Do you have any idea how much weight would have to be behind the wheels balance out the weight in front of them?
Don't you know?
The government are using large airships painted black with twinkling lights on their underside to negate the ability to navigate by the stars and therefor control where we can go. Everytime you think you're getting away they change as to redirect you back to your local authorities. You haven't been able to see a real star for 15 years now.:-)
Look again, it's only last 4 of social, no maiden name, phone number not required. But thanks I'll take a bigger piece of the pie if you don't want your money.
If it's only one or two URL's I do. If it's going to google and doing a search, or going to somewhere I need to fill out a form a keybaord is just quicker.
I was a lucky enough b@#%!rd to win an Acer TM C102Ti as the MS Tablet PC launch. After piddling with it for a few weeks I've definitely noticed some interesting usage habits.
For taking notes I use MS Journal, they go in as ink and stay as ink. My recognition of my writing will always be better than their recognition and I don't feel like going through the correction just to get a smaller file size. If I was sharing the notes with someone else I might, but what I keep for myself I keep as ink.
Browsing I do a mixture or pen and keyboard. I definitely like browsing in tablet mode with the pen it just feels more natural, however entering URL's with the pen is still 50/50 so if I have to pull out the keyboard it's back to landscape mode.
Any type of command line work such as admin work or coding simply requires a keyboard, no two ways about it. If I remote accesss in to work I have to use a keyboard (they are running a version of MetaFrame that doesn't support pen). This is where the pen will fail to win over the gear-heads in my opinion.
Also I do find myself using keyboard and pen more than I thought I would. Glidepoints still just don't cut it for me, so I'd rather do the extra grab for the pen.
All in all I'm really happy with it (I should be since it was free) and I can't imagine buying a laptop without Tablet features after using a Tablet.

Well it. Could have been. Worse he could. Write like Chritopher. Walken talks.

Lets hope so! If companies are reluctant to put in any type of phoning home at all for fear of MS lawyers, that's all the better.

Somehow, I think my wife of 9 years and 7 month old daughter would disagree. This tripe doesn't deserve a reply, but hey it's the giving season
