don't feel too bad. There are a lot of CEOs that get $20M salaries for doing nothing. If the company succeeds due to market conditions they are seen as heroes- if the company fails for market conditions they are seen as losers. They ma

I agree wholeheartedly. It was the place once upon a time to be recognized and heard. Its not anymore. So I took down my answers and put them on my own blog- to get traffic to my site. Worked great.

I'm a safe/slow driver and I'd sign up for this. I'd love insurance companies to price out speeding and reckless drivers for the sake of safety of others.

Atleast the European countries have laws that require equal pay for full-time vs contractors. Its about time the US instituted such laws too. It's just gross how companies get away with using contractors for the same job as full-timers

You wait Product Makers will at some point realize they can sell direct and do it without AMZN. e.g. Nike, Apple Competitors- Dick's, Best Buy will give product makers ultimatums- if we get undercut by AMZn, we're not going to sel

I think you are mistaken. Big Tech has the same 'human' problems as classic companies- bloated middle management, fluff work, empire buiding, process, etc. They get away with it because they are growing and can increase prices rig

I wish you all the best. My kids love Sajj's chicken shwarma bowls. They split a $12 bowl because it is large, but the family bill still comes to $40/meal. Looking forward to halving that! Request your next location to be in Mtn V

I really don't get why these companies are so resistant to make them employees. No one can force them to pay rich benefits. Employer taxes only cost 10%. If Walmart, Starbucks, Chipotle, Amazon can do it so can they.
