  1. Hunt down, throttle, and charge? on Verizon CEO Says "We Will Hunt Heavy Users Down" · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Being a Verizon consumer and having a broadband mobile data package that I use when tethering, I receive txt messaging reminding me when I've come close to my quota. Correct me if I'm wrong, but if I go over I was under the impression that I would be charge steeply per MB over my quota. So I wonder, being a consumer that they already have on record (since I pay my bill), when they come to my address on record to find me using my quota as advertised, will Verizon physically throttle my usage by exchanging my device for an less capable model?

  5. Re:"good help is so hard to find" on Transitioning From Small Shop IT To Enterprise? · · Score: 1

    "Employers post insane requirements looking for people with a skillset that goes on for PAGES and have grossly unrealistic expectations for years-of-experience. For even the most mundane schlep, I mean help, desk positions. Candidates respond by simply flooding employers with any position the candidate thinks they might be remotely qualified for." When I see insane requirements I realize that the qualifications only match one person in this world, the guy who just left.
