Calling someone for an error can be done without the personal insults
and name-calling.

You stated the owners of banks were wealthy. You made an error, which
I pointed out. No names were called. Not necessary.

You are correct! The lies about the death panel crap that is coming from
the right is dishonest, and they know it, that is IF they read that part.


From page 429:

‘‘(B) An advance care planning consultation with re2
spect to an individual may be conducted more frequently

5 diagnosis of a chronic, progressive, life-limiting disease, a

7 injury, or upon admission to a skilled nursing facility, a
8 long-term care facility (as defined by the Secretary), or
9 a hospice program.

Note line 10. Pretty scary, huh? Why is this here?

Sure sounds like a panel, doesn't it?

Feel like you're working a lot harder these days, putting in longer
hours for the same pay - or even less? The latest round of
government
data on worker productivity indicates that you probably are.

The Labor Department said Tuesday that the American work force
produced, at an annual rate, 6.4 percent more of the goods they made
and services they provided in the second quarter of this year
compared
to a year ago. At the same time, "unit labor costs" - the amount
employers paid for all that extra work - fell by 5.8 percent. The
jump
in productivity was higher than expected; the cut in labor costs
more
than double expectations.

That is, despite the deep job cuts of the past year, workers who
remain on the payroll are filling in and making up the work that had
been done by their departed colleagues. In some cases, that extra
work
came with a smaller paycheck.


Full story here...
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/32374533...n_the_economy/
On todays production lines the volume can be increased without a
corresponding increase in the effort of the individual. So a 6.4%
increase in production does not mean that the employee is being
overworked as implied.
Don't know if you're heard, we don't have production lines here
anymore. We're in the service business and military arms. The
productivity gains come from less workers doing more, working longer
hours for pay that doesn't keep up with the rising cost of living.
No production, so we could not raise productivity. You kept all your
deadwood.

You don't have to produce on a line to be productive.

We write software, it doesn't benefit from a faster production line.
We are doing more with less people. When times are lean, that's the
way it works.

Did you ever work for an entreprenurial company or only behemoths?

How well are those German screwdrivers helping you write software?


That's what I was thinking, how do you write software with a screwdriver!
He's lying like Harry of course, you'll see no evidence of his work.


I will support jps here. I wrote software for embedded systems. Most for
years was in PROM's. So you had to take the screw driver and open up the
case to pop out the old PROM and install the new one.


No doubt, but the whole story of the politically correct search for non-
corporate screwdrivers that got holes blown in it. It was a story he
told to try to pull off a "holier than thou" rant.. It was a Lobsta'
Boat... Kind of funny by the time it played out really...

Morons. Calling in someone is a voluntary decision, and the operative
words are "may be conducted," not "shall be" conducted. Too bad neither
of you have command of the mother tongue.

Extremely humorous.

Own 100 shares, 1000, 100000, a million?

Someone owns several orders magnitude more and they make the
decisions. Not folks who own hundredths of a percent.
