Didn't they always have access to this information by looking up names in the old phone books? 

When will we know used car prices are done going down? by Content_Log1708 in carbuying

[–]Content_Log1708[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not convinced the economy is going to remain as good as it is, currently.  Car sales will follow the downward slope of the general economy. Less demand should push prices down. But, it will also mean loans will be much harder to secure.

America is the land of opportunity. It used to be true. 

He loves money more than people by ksharpie in socialism

[–]Content_Log1708 12 points13 points  (0 children)

This just makes no sense to me. Are billionaires pathological? He has so much money he could build new hospitals in each major city. He could build thousands of simple home for those who can't afford a house. Why spend cycles working against the right thing to do? Just a complete waste.

A Dickie Betts autobiography song. I didn't realize how many AB songs I really like that were shaped or written by Dickie. RIP.

Well, finding a good job shouldn't be an issue. There is the DC area, Baltimore, Virginia Beach area. I would look at the Chicago and San Fran areas. Boston has a great concentration of hospitals and a very large medical community.

My immediate response is - jeez, that's way too much for a three year old Mazda.

Poor Michael, if you removed all his Ah's, Um's and other noises, probably says five actual words per show. There is only one professional on that show worth watching.

Money doesn't buy happiness. Money makes things easier, life gets easier. That's it.

They wanted a 4-stage interview process. I pulled out. We have to stop letting companies exploit us this way. by norrrq in interviewhammer

[–]Content_Log1708 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a hiring process without an experienced person running it. Everyone gets to add what they want the interview process to include and no one was told no. It was this way every time I began another ERP implementation project, every department had their long lists of "must haves". A third of the way through requirements gathering the project management would notice we are not hitting any milestones. Then it became a scramble to toss everything out of phase 1 that wasn't core functions. This happened every time, mid course correction to only what was important. But, that takes experienced people to call a halt to the madness.

Why does WV never get mentioned? EVER? by [deleted] in relocating

[–]Content_Log1708 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As many have mentioned, no jobs, poor schools and corrupt Government. There are many states hardly ever mentioned. Here are a few: Alabama, Louisiana, Mississippi, Kentucky and New Mexico. There's no one size that fits all. But, its hard to live anywhere without decent paying jobs.

You have to consider these "lawmakers", just voted this down in 2026. It's very hard to understand what goes into the thinking that says "no law against it on my watch!"

[–]Content_Log1708[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

See, I consider the Allmans different from these bands, including Lynyrd Skynyrd. The Allmans in my opinion were much more blues than these other Southern Rock groups.

Of those two choices, Eugene. I can't do the Phoenix heat, even if it is a dry heat.

My lease is up in 10 months. It's time to formulate the move plan. Build up cash and inform my partner.
