Yep. If I'm having that kind of problem, I have a number I can call and they will pay for up to 10 visits to a professional, per year. The rest fall under traditional insurance. This is all part of my benefits package. I also have a number I can call and get free advice from a registered nurse.
I watched a kid at field day this weekend - he excused himself from the crowd he was in, walked over to an empty area, and coughed his lungs out... then came back.
The trouble is, cold hard facts are cold and hard.
Lets use Les Miserables as an example. Your family is starving, so you stole some bread from a merchant who was (by all appearances) surviving just fine. PUNISHMENT! The reasons and other trappings do not matter, the cold hard fact was that you stole the bread and thus...
You follow? So in order to prevent this kind of hard-ass nonsense, we have to allow the human element. That's where judges and juries come in. Unfortunately, the side effect of this is the bullshit we have to deal with these days. I'm not sure if it's worth it, but I'm just pointing it out.
Yes, they DO have the right to do so. Whether or not it was a good decision or if Management will discipline them for it or not is not part of the question.
You are NOT required to sell to anyone. Likewise, "we reserve the right to refuse service."
Yea, well if there was a trade embargo against Columbia, and you said (in the clerk's hearing) that you were going to send it to someone back home, you'd bet your ass you'd be denied. Rightfully.
A trade embargo is a trade embargo. I don't care if you're a disabled veteran Native American speaking Navajo.
Granted, she didn't explicitly tell the clerk. She just made the mistake of opening her yap after assuming he wouldn't understand her. Which is totally her fault, as well.
Congratulations. You've now confirmed yourself to be an idiot.
Advertising your inflammatory political agenda publicly was the first offense. Not ignoring someone pointing it out when it is totally off-topic was your second. Your third offense was saying "There's no such thing as bad publicity."
I like how you switch from smart quotes to straight quotes and back. What browser is that? It's doing something funny. (Slashdot's incompetence makes it apparent)
You could start by leaving little comments like "I don't care, I use a mac" out of your post, because while you might have intended it to have no harm, that transforms the rest of your post into flamebait. Don't bitch when your kindling catches fire.
I was a systems administrator at a large datacenter, and am currently a support engineer for a major company, yet she makes 30% more than I do. I'm also good at my job.
Me either. However, I do find myself generating some outrage at the overall picture.
If you're working full time, you should be paid enough to live. I don't care if you're job is cleaning up dog shit in the park. If you can't afford to live off a full-time job, then you are not employed, you are enslaved.
I pay almost $500 for a tiny studio apartment, 15 miles out from the city center in a pretty low-income area. Seems a bit much TBH, for all of the one room that I have.
If they are paranoid enough to have a "no unapproved software" policy, they sure as fuck are going to notice an outbound encrypted connection. Especially one that allows bidirectional tunneling or file transfer.
If such a company doesn't have an IDS that immediately sounds the alarm, then the policies are merely there because someone's butt-covering or they are simply there to help HR fire people they want gone for arbitrary reasons.
... and if not, just install it at home and zip up the java directory. Extract that somewhere and either put it in your %PATH%, or tweak the eclipse INI to point to it directly.
Java doesn't actually NEED an installer - it just adds some file associations, browser plugins, a control panel item, and some "shortcut" binaries into system32. Totally optional. Wish they would provide a simple zip download for people who just want the JRE/JDK without all the other goodies.
Not gonna work - unless you are OK with it being a no-network virtual machine, virtualbox (or vmware, or anything except Qemu) requires drivers and/or services to be installed.

Not all companies leave you out in the cold.

Not all American children are little bastards.
... and neither do the ones who recognize and game the system. You forgot that aspect, which is even worse.

My understanding was that it was said, in Farsi, just not TO the clerk. The clerk heard and understood the remark.

They require firmware uploads, their chips are most definitly SDR.

Are you saying I didn't? I had to wear the monkey suit some days. Talk to customers constantly. Take prospective customers on tours of the facility.
I was hardly a server-room gnome...

I smell bullshit.

Not really. It just needs other data to be meaningful: how much you guys pay in taxes overall.
If you don't pay as much sales or income tax, for example, then it balances out.

Good thing they don't charge for characters in the body of a message. You don't need to try to scrimp by putting part of it in the subject, you know.
Please, take too many of them. Perhaps he'll OD and be too sick to bother us with such a post again for some time.
So the nouveau guys should just give up and delete everything they have already done?
TBH sounds like call-center work. He's a worker bee. "We don't pay you to think!"
I'm glad I don't work for Billy Gates there. He's the kind of person who'd fire people for thinking.
