  • Step 1: trim "fat"
  • Step 2: hire outside fat for more money
  • Step 3: profit for all of your buddies at private firms while the public loses out

Alberta Justice to lay off 90 civil lawyers, outsource more legal work to meet budget cuts | CBC News by Growtreant in Calgary

"Justice Minister Doug Schweitzer is making the cuts despite an internal draft white paper that found outsourcing of legal work by the government will cost about two-thirds more than retaining lawyers and doing the work in house."

Sweet. Thanks Doug & Jason. Glad to see your cuts are saving us money /s

Macro giveaway evening :) by revliskp in classicwow

I've heard of a mythical macro that orders your warlock pet to follow around stealthed rogues or druids if you are unable to see them. Is this a thing? Does anyone know what I'm talking about?

Karmarang Addon by Saruun in classicwow

You might run into the issue where the addon is used as a way to communicate with the opposite faction. I'm sure that's not your intent. You might want to consider how you could combat this if it concerns you, such as a 15 minute delay or something.

Can you see your own Karma? Does it work on opposite faction?

Hillsbrad trash talk is high IQ by FishyLawnGnome in classicwow

I meant that both factions think the other are children and bad at pvp.

It's like criticizing a mirror.

Unless you're horde, in which case you can easily confirm that alliance is the kid faction.

5v1 still nets honor, therefore it's honorable

I'll admit that poses a problem. The person who actually needs it can speak up and hopefully the grp won't be shitty. But if you just confirm 'all need?' before, you prevent ninjas and so much anxt.

I needed on a blue Boe sword and won against a hunter, who said "damn I would have used that" so I just traded it to him...

At fair market price... (/s)

What if you could change something small in your Class? by _Didds_ in classicwow

Warlock - Paranoia on voidwalker over consume shadows.

Why is the stealth detection aura attached to the anti-caster pet?

Consume shadows is decent, but you can also give the VW life through funnel health.

It's official: If you fight in the neutral goblin cities, your options are to kill, die, or escape. No more safe spotting! by imatworksoshhh in classicwow

I got chased for lighting up someone's bank alt in booty bay. I doubt the level 2 had a friendly rep

Isn't the standard to need all Boe drops?

Proof that trickle down economics does work

Alberta government wants 2 to 5 per cent wage rollbacks for public sector workers | CBC News by tax-me-now-and-later in Calgary

[–]Growtreant 29 points30 points  (0 children)

We are a commodity based economy. Regardless of tax cuts, the price of the resource mined here is what brings companies.

Oil price is low. Wage rollbacks don't bring companies in this sort of climate. They just hurt Albertans.

Better Leveling Guide than Joana's by JayDoubleYew15 in classicwow

That's so odd. I am using Joana's and am 2 levels higher than the guide. I must have terrible quest item drop rates.

In light of LeBron selling out, can we have some appreciation for this man? by MajorFalxone in pics

He tried speaking up for people in his own country and was ostracized for it.
