Their stock is actually doing really well right now.

I'm currently trying to figure out what I can do about food for the next two weeks.

No elastic... But supposedly no whiplash due to harness design... I'm still not convinced, but apparently it's too late to catch a flight :/

I broke our in-house implementation once in a production environment in front of a customer.

When asked if I was going to fix it - I politely said I could, but didn't have the authority to do so(and this gave a brief explanation <2min on how to do it).

Since then, I've been given clearance to do so- but not the compensation.

@RyanWelsh @stux
Seriously, no doubt about whiplash.... The human body isn't meant for that kind of abuse. Some people might think the immediate danger would be the hooking system (I would propose a magnetic system instead, like what used to be found in a few junk yards), but the real problem is the sudden force to the body- more so the specific points of the harness that will pull the torso with it.

Though, if you'd rather risk death or injury by friendly force- than torture by the enemy, this would be a no-brainer solution.

This is sadly ironic considering recent events on how scientific journals are now supposed to be free to the public of tax dollars have been used in any way to fund them.

>>Trying to find my people on here.

If they're on here, they're not _your_ people anymore- they're _my_ people :blobglassesdown: :rickdrink:

But I'll gladly sell them back to you for 1000 Schmeckles :mortysmug:

@lightweight @zleap
I have no real mental foothold as to get started on starting my own business. I really wish I did.

Any advice?

I feel like I lost 5min of my life following this link.

Science requires sufficient room for details on how to reproduce otherwise exasperatingly elaborate processes to reach the same point of potential difference in outcomes.

More characters are important to Qoto purposes.

I have a B.S. in Comp Sci and get rejected for retail jobs. I currently work full time at a fortune 50 company.

Want to explain wtf is up with the current job market?

Optimistically, it's just me- but that could be convoluted.

@nyx
Ok, now what about facing the floor, ceiling, a cat on your head, facing another person, facing behind another person, facing a tv, and with a blindfold on?
