That one was fucking useless, couldn't fix the english and spelling without mangling the meaning. Just too dumb.
The basic problem was: He had no clue, but wasn't sharp enough to realize it. His draft was a disaster. Out the door he went. I guess we made use of a few screenshots he took, but aside from that it was back to the engineer written rough draft. Which the customers, being engineers themselves, were able to use.
It's always a good idea to bring in tech writers, they are cheap, _much_ cheaper than technical people. But you want to make sure they produce a draft during their probation period. Not many smart ones, lots of attitude.
Surcharges are illegal, but cash discounts are not. Some merchant agreements try to ban them. But even then, make it a freebee after X dollars cash deal.
Business just has to have the balls to raise their middle fingers to VISA. I've seen more than a few that are ATM and cash only. I bet that costs them less than 2% in sales.
The elephant in the room is Apple/Google pay. VISA _should_ be worried. After 40+ years of VISA/MC's 'we're the only game in town' attitude, everybody should be looking for alternatives.
IIRC correctly there are a few that stink so bad they never see daylight. From memory: Some Italian blue blood spent the entire family fortune making a movie about an animated, singing, dancing purple dinosaur (not Barny) starring Whoopi Goldberg, back when she was a 'star'.
Her people bought it, to save her career. Now that 'she's done' anyhow, they should release it for the luls.
Everybody that got short sentences and/or probation answered 'no' to those questions...
It's like the personality assessment tests. 99% of the questions have obvious correct answers. The trick is: Spot the 'honesty tests' (they're obvious too), then never slip-up and be honest on any other questions, always sling bullshit. Don't hesitate, they time how long it takes to punch in the answer.
I had a damn tech writer smugly inform me that their was 'now a creative person on the team'. I said: 'Fuck off, your job is writing an goddamn instruction manual for a system _created_ by the rest of the people in this room.'

If we wanted to really change things, we'd send Ukraine a 1000 tons of steel and a ton of 'weapons grade'.
They gave up their nukes in a deal with Russia. Russia has violated that agreement, they need a nuke or ten.
They hate each other because they are fighting for the same ideological turf. It's just about who ends up in charge.
Arguing with the willfully ignorant is a waste of time. So no.
Bud's 18th birthday
at the nudie bar
where you can look at a thigh
and blacken an eye
at the nudie bar
at the nudie bar
where they show you their butt
and their trap stays shut
at the nudie bar
at the nudie bar
where you can't touch a breast
but you can cave in a chest
at the nudie bar
at the nudie bar
where the girlies dance
in their underpants
at the nudie bar
at the nudie bar
where the music stinks
and they water the drinks
at the nudie bar
at the nudie bar
where the beer gives you gas
but the Bundys KICK ASS
the nudie bar
Other bits
Where a buck's enough
to see their stuff,
at the nudie bar.
Where the breasts may be fake
but man do they shake,
at the nudie bar.
Where you swear like a sailor,
and wish you could nail her,
at the nudie bar.
Where the cops are at the door,
and there's a Kennedy on the floor,
at the nudie bar.
Where Christmas is nice,
and lap dances are half price,
at the nudie bar.
Where you drink down the shooters,
and unwrap the hooters,
at the nudie bar.
Where eggnogs are plenty,
and the girls all twenty,
at the nudie bar.

For the luls!
On Reddit, your post would be deleted for disturbing the circle jerk. Here it will just be modded down.

Have you been paying attention? Not agreeing with idiots 100%, makes you Hitler.
The cards dump it on the business 99% of the time. The business pays the % and pays the loses. The cardholder sometimes gets a % back.
I suggest business implement a 2% cash discount (after raising prices 2%).
'Economic feasibility' is a decision for the people with the money. What the peanut gallery thinks, doesn't matter.
The one with Lucas electrics...shudder. Your a brave man, driving that further than walking distance from home.
He is obviously both. He lies about being a qualified developer...'decades' is laughable. He's likely only 'decade' old.
He's such an obvious cock, I'm sure he can't suppress it for the duration of an interview. Easy shitcan.
Punchline: If we can find my keys, we can drive out of here.

You can't memorize you way to writing 'Wolfenstein 3d' either. Deal with it, art fag.

Most 'creatives', aren't.
The most prosperous parts of Africa are the parts that were the most developed during colonial times.
You better make sure no AI sees that data either.
You don't learn much from success, except that 'your shit don't stink'.
Your theory fits perfectly to the American Democrat party.
We should look at questions that weren't stupid with obvious correct answers.
Limit the amount of cash you bring into the nudie bar, 'cause you won't be leaving with any.
Protip: The Bundy Dollar...
WTF? Tell that to someone who's entire extended family aren't Germans. They might believe you.
Got a credible cite for that?
