The future is bright for those willing to clean up oil dribbles beneath the robots.
The future is bright for anyone who is willing to clean up messes. When I did a PC refresh project for a local hospital, the IT manager had a storage room that no one had seen the floor in eight years. I moved my desk into the storage room, spent six weeks in between tickets and assignments to clean it out, and returned 600 square-feet of useable space to the IT manager.
He used the laws to his advantage while operating a business? Wow, color me surprised.
It's hypocritical for Trump to demand that other companies put America first and then excused himself from doing that himself because everyone else is doing it.
Do you take advantage of any/all tax deductions you can claim? If you do I think that makes you a greedy self serving hypocrite.
Yes. But I'm also not publicly advocating that the rich should pay more in taxes while using the same legal strategies that the rich use to reduce my tax bill.
Oh, hell no. Slashdot is my trolling network, as I love to troll the trolls here. Keeps me amused while I'm waiting for a script to get done at work. Needless to say, I run a lot of scripts.
She should have been paying more attention to where she was going, and see that there was mayo on the floor.
The mayo was a thin white paste on white tiles that wasn't properly cleaned up from the floor after a glass jar broke open.
Both parties have fault in this situation (and indeed most every situation).
Not according to the judge.
People like your mother should be jailed up for using the legal system so friviously, rather than pushing to get law changed to provide universal health care, so that no-one in the future would need to feel financial burden for accidents.
As I pointed out to someone else, this took place in the 1980's. My mother had health insurance but it didn't cover chiropratic care. The store manager admitted liability by offering $500 and refused to pay more to cover the $2,000 in out of pocket expenses. She took the grocery store to small claims court, presented her case and the judge ruled in her favor. Keep in mind that this was $2,000. That's pocket change in comparison to many award settlements today.
When I was doing help desk, I helped resolved a long-standing problem that user had. She came with a five-pound bag of M&M's. That was too much for me. I shared the bag with the entire department.
Uhh, you ever hear of the Sierra mountains? Even Southern California has the San Bernadino mountains with several ski resorts. Try driving I-5 through Redding, CA in January.
Tech companies are not located in those areas. Hence, snow isn't a problem in California unless you're skiing or need drinking water.
I've been in two Fortune 500 companies, and my wife has worked for five...all of them offered paid education (up to a limit of $5-10k/yr).
As a contractor, I've worked at many Fortune 500 companies. Most of the time I didn't get a benefit package. When I did get a benefit package, it never included paid education. Whatever I learned on my own time comes out of my own pocket.
But this is a separate deal that Apple signed w/ India regarding phones that get sold in India.
No, no, no. All manufacturing must be done in the U.S. to bring jobs back and make America great again. If Apple isn't doing that, it will get penalized or put out of business. Trump! Trump! Trump!
According to various Trump supporters on Slashdot, the election of Trump has caused the stock market to boom, turned back job-killing regulations and jobs are flooding back into the country. If Apple goes to India for manufacturing, Trump had obviously failed to keep his campaign promise. Never mind that Trump haven't been sworn into office and many of his policies won't go into effect until the 2018 fiscal year.
Well, that changes things, and you didn't include it in your original comment.
Because the nature of a slip and fall inside a GROCERY STORE should have been obvious. Of course, glass jars are uncommon and breakage is less of an issue these days.
You are supposed to have health insurance or live an country with a working health care system.
This was the 1980's. My family had health insurance but it didn't covered chiropractic care. That was 100% out of pocket. Hence, my mother declined the $500 offer and sued in small claims court for $2,000.
If you slip and fall on a sidewalk who do you sue? All the people in the city as it is a public property.
This happened inside a grocery store.
That is insane.
So is your comment.
If you slip it is your own fault, unless there is grease and or other substance.
The bagging boy did a terrible job of cleaning up the broken mayo jar.
I use regex to reduce a complex dataset to fewest items possible items that will fit on three pages or less before I work on them. Accuracy is very important.
Why am I not surprised that both you and your mother are leeches off the system?
The $500 that the grocery store manager offered didn't cover her doctor bill. Using the small claims court to recover the cost of treatment is entirely legal.
San Francisco, if it's government had any balls, would start booting all Uber self-driving cabs based on the risk to society.
San Francisco drivers could do a better job. One time I was in the middle lane of a busy street when the light changed green. The driver in the right lane suddenly decided to make a left hand turn in front of me. I always count to three after the light changes before I start moving while driving in San Francisco.
Here is our "generous" offer: $250K, sign this "no fault" agreement, and "GTFO."
Sounds like a grocery store offer. When my mother slipped and fell in an grocery store, the manager offered her $500 on the spot. She went to small claims court and won $2,000 instead.

Exactly, where are these automated factories that are displacing workers.
The new factories in the U.S. are automated and require fewer users to operate.

Also, scripts are meant to automate tasks so you yourself can do more work while it;s running. Get ahead, get back to work!
I'm on an all-day chat call while I'm running scripts and commenting on Slashdot. If something comes up, I'm immediately available to assist.
Oh, hell no. Slashdot is my trolling network, as I love to troll the trolls here. Keeps me amused while I'm waiting for a script to get done at work. Needless to say, I run a lot of scripts.
They're usually hanging out at 7-11 stores.

so your entire argument stems to cali is diverse and everyone else is a racist?
California is diverse and everyone IS racist.

Of course, not. I voted for Hillary. ;)

The "fewest items possible items"?
You actually caught that mistake — I'm impressed.
Genius!
Thank you!
I'm glad our government IT is in good hands.
Always a pleasure to serve the public.
Trump has already lost Apple for manufacturing jobs in flyover country. So much for that campaign promise.
True! I hope she is OK.
That was back in the 1980's.
When did you learn to count to 3?
Kindergarten. And you?
Did you learn in your awesome government IT job?

So Uber's driver-less cars drive like a soccer mom trying to get her spawn to school?
Which is also why leftists in the US have been importing and placing the immigrants into Conservative States
If you believe leftists are hiding underneath your bed, you need professional help.
