More Things to Worry About
Can't Possibly Be True: A quick-draw game between two yee-ha's in that fabulous border area of Va.-West Va.-Tenn ends badly, but alcohol was not involved (nor drugs). Bristol (Tenn.) Herald Courier
Bernard Madoff's Palm Beach mansion was toilet-papered Sunday night, and the reporter said it was by neighbor kids whose trust funds Madoff had looted. Palm Beach Post
Univ. of Alabama at Birmingham researchers pointed out that it's 43 percent easier for us drivers to wipe out kids crossing the street if we only aim at kids who talk on the phone while crossing [Ed.: OK, the researchers didn't express it quite that way . . .] Reuters via Yahoo
An 11-yr-old bullfighter in Mexico gets 6 kills in one day, thus simultaneously enraging both child-welfare groups and PETA types. BBC News
An organization called Japan Toilet Labo unveiled a campaign to hang poetry on public restroom stalls, which it says will save toilet paper, in that research shows people use more TP in public stalls because it's free. (Buried Lede: Japan has a toilet-use support organization.) Reuters via Yahoo

I get to focus on recruitment, hiring and training of just the exempt management, corporate staff and execs. luckily I don't have much dealings with the minions (should I be saying that?)
At that level if you're in trouble you've done it to yourself!!!!

Mr Jazz - Could that possibly be because of outsourcing???
😠
I'm not attacking you, just upset by what I see in the IT field in general. I have a lot of friends in that field who get passed over for jobs they are way overqualified for because there are foreign companies who will do it for way cheaper. We have the opportunities, it's just some people would rather give those opportunities away. Or charge you more to speak to tech support that you can understand. Now there's some Western Values we really need.
