Credit unions are better. The Wells Fargo branch office in my neighborhood lost a lot of business when a credit union opened up next door. I moved my accounts over when my bankruptcy attorney told me that Wells Fargo would freeze my accounts when they get the legal paperwork.
An entrepreneur wanted to build a widget factory. So he got some investors to pony up some money. A while later he requested more money to build the widget factory. The investors demanded to see the entrepreneur and see what he had done with the money so far. They showed up at a brand new campus, state of the art office buildings, and numerous employees running around. But they wanted to see the widget factory that was bringing in the profits to pay for all this and why they should put more money into the business. The entrepreneur admitted that there was no widget factory, as he spent all the money on the offices.
Which are based on polls that are under-sampling republicans, independents, or males by enough points to give her an edge.
I'm not talking about the popular vote. The electoral college map for 2016 is identical to 2008 and 2012. Hillary started off 268 electoral votes. Trump started off with 206 electoral votes. That meant that Trump had to perform better than McCain in 2008 and Romney in 2012 to have a chance at winning. Like everything else in this election, he blew that off too and will lose in a landslide.
I once worked at a company that provided help desk support services. After spending a year cleaning up the mess left by the previous company that had the contract, the client company told my company that they needed to double performance for half the cost. My management decided that a layoff was in order and I began my journey as 99'er on Friday the 13th, February 2009.
A few years later I came back in on a PC refresh contract and found out that a new help desk company came in with the same mandate: double performance for half the cost. They too laid off some people.
A few years after that I came to interview at the client company for an IT computer security job. All the people I knew from years earlier were gone, the help desk team was almost non-existent and the new help desk company had the same mandate: double performance for half the cost. It wouldn't surprise me if they outsourced everything to India by now, as they were running out of Americans to lay off.
I'm currently in government IT for providing computer security for 80,000+ workstations. Our turnover rate is high because some people come in with the mindset that government jobs don't require employees to work. They're shocked to find out that it's hard work, ex-military folks have zero tolerance for slackers and slackers are fired within two weeks. One person got fired on his first day by asserting his right not to work because he was a government employee and the American taxpayers owed him.
Who the hell banks on having a career on any of these fields?
After the dot com bust, I saw a study that skilled IT workers would be in great demand as baby boomers retire and foreign workers stay home to build up their own country by 2030. I went back to school to learn computer programming, got into IT and enjoying my career ever since.
Monitoring? Helpdesk support? Patch management?
I'm halfway through a five-year government IT contract for computer security, which includes monitoring, help desk support and patch management for 80,000+ workstations.
Keep your pulse on shit so that you do not get blindsided by paradigm shifts.
Not according to the electoral college. Trump has to win Florida (could go either way), Ohio (went to Obama twice) and Pennsylvania (haven't gone Republican since 1988). If he doesn't win all three states, the election is over. Trump is on the way to becoming America's Biggest Looser.
It doesn't help that someone shouted "gun" when the protester stood up with a sign.
A Secret Service spokesperson said in a statement that an "unidentified individual" shouted "gun" in the audience, though no weapon was found after a "thorough search."
I went from 325 pounds to 400 pounds when I lifted weights at the gym for a year. I lost fat and gained muscle, but not in the right way. After I stopped lifting weights, my weight settled down to 350 pounds and that's my weight for the last ten years. Although I've been on a low carb diet for the last five years, I reduced my calorie intake to 1,500 calories per day two months ago. This month I weighed 348 pounds.
My statement is factually correct — except I now weigh 345 pounds. What does this have to do with a fake diet?
It's $35.54 USD. Melt value is $9.21 USD for one-half ounce of silver. Four times the melt value for a 2009 Christmas coin with 15,000 mintage might be a good deal. Could sell for a much higher price on eBay.
I did a six-month contract as an software tester internship after college, where I came across a crash bug on the test server that I could reproduced 100% of the time. My supervisor could not reproduced the bug, and approved the patch for production server. The production server crashed immediately from the patch. Engineers determined that a major code rewrite was required to fix the underlying problem. The production server was offline for three days and cost the company $250K in lost revenue. My contract wasn't renewed, one-third of the division got laid off after I left, and further budget cuts doomed the project. As for my supervisor, he got promoted into management.
So basically next time there is a major solar flare that will impact the earth, hmm, everyone on that side of the planet in hospital basically dies, hmm, sounds like a plan.
The electrical grid in the US will probably go offline in a significant solar storm or EMP attack. Only military installations are hardened against such events. The utility companies are aware of this problem but they want the federal government to pick up the tab for upgrading the grid.
How many hours before it all collapses, make it past the first 24 maybe, how about after 72 not so pretty outcome and any longer and people will start dying in significant numbers.

That you elected a lying bitch instead of a lying asshole?
As one Republican consultant said in a Politico article, "Given a choice between crooked and crazy, the American people will always vote for crooked."
Credit unions are typically not in the business of nickel and diming their customers for every little thing.

You're overlooking the fact that the OP has already voted by mail-in ballot and doesn't need to go in person to vote.

This, like every other "I was an intern who saved the world" story, has more than meets the eye.
I work in IT. I save the world every day.
