  3. Re:Nice to know on Getting Rid of Staff With High Access? · · Score: 1

    At my last job I gave a three month notice as I had to move to a new location. I also gave my two week notice in writing before I moved because I figured they might have forgotten.

    The only notice that really mattered was the two week notice because giving a notice of three months in advance didn't seem to set off the course of actions they needed to prepare to replace me. It was only in the final two weeks that all the rushed training and tying up loose ends for a replacement happened.

    Moral of the story: two weeks is enough time to rush to adequately train a competent replacement, enough time to try to train and incompetent lame duck replacement, and almost enough time to drive someone insane with boredom in case they cut all access to work

  11. Re:Origin of life ?! on Correcting Misperceptions About Evolution · · Score: 0

    All right, kids, it is now my job to teach you the theory of evolution. Now I, for one, think evolution is a bunch of bullcrap! But I've been told I have to teach it to you anyway. It was thought up by Charles Darwin and it goes something like this...

    In the beginning, we were all fish. Okay? Swimming around in the water. And then one day a couple of fish had a retard baby, and the retard baby was different, so it got to live. So Retard Fish goes on to make more retard babies, and then one day, a retard baby fish crawled out of the ocean with its... mutant fish hands... and it had butt sex with a squirrel or something and made this. Retard frog-sqirrel, and then *that* had a retard baby which was a... monkey-fish-frog... And then this monkey-fish-frog had butt sex with that monkey, and that monkey had a mutant retard baby that screwed another monkey... and that made you!

    So there you go! You're the retarded offspring of five monkeys having butt sex with a fish-squirrel! Congratulations!

  19. Not new, but needed in Bangalore on Mobile Phones to Monitor Traffic Congestion · · Score: 0

    This has been brought up before
    I am glad to see that it is available though. I spent last month in Bangalore and spent over 3 hours in traffic every day to get to and from work, i thought it was hell and I live in Boston! I don't expect that this will help the problem too much. The city needs hard solutions to the traffic problems and they have already started by not allowing any new motor rickshaws, starting public transport rail projects, creating a new highway, and getting serious about traffic ticketing.
