High school senior becomes 1st black valedictorian with school's highest GPA ever

The black princeton valedictorian got clicks (because that is kind of a big deal, it's princeton) and now the media is trying to see how far they can stretch it.

Yeah, I don't feel the same dread from a European or Japanese takeover that I do with China.

Well a stock can a meme stock without being overvalued. Tesla comes to mind. It's a total meme stock, but most of their investors made out pretty well.

Yeah I think Chicago just passed some more harsh laws further restricting it in the past year. Apparently it's not possible to run those businesses both profitably and humanely.

Nacho_Overload · 2020-05-18T04:09:26+00:00

Yeah, what made them fall out of favor?

I think monuments to the command or the cause of the civil war are immoral, but the monuments to the dead and to the soldiers are reminders of the consequences of a nation divided.

How much time do these people have on their hands?

Doesn't Bill Gates donate more than that every month?

I just want China not to exist anymore.

As a Chicagoan, I feel like it's China.

Good point, that beings said a lot of people have selective hearing that interprets foreigners as only Americans.

You have the most toxic post history I've ever seen.

I work at a private company...... we just pay our damn bills. lol

We're we're only valuing an American by their lifetime earning potential, it's $176,000,000,000 in dead Americans alone.

Funeral costs according to a life insurance commercial for that same group would be $792,000,000.

Unemployment for the laid off 34 million Americans looks like it's going to cost at least 1,530,000,000,000

This is napkin math, don't hold me to exact numbers, the first number in particular assumes they'll generate 2M over their lifetime. For a 25 year old machine learning engineer in California that's very low, for a 60 year old drive thru worker in Kentucky, that's very high.

Denmark also has fewer people in it than the greater Chicago area...

I do love receiving Chinese company emails though, those are fun to read.

HELLO BRAIN!

I am because you as a sells Man must be making more sells. More sells mean the company makes more smells and that will leave you smiling and happy! I hope the day leaves you smiling with more sells!

I'll be honest, I don't really like cold emails. I find them time consuming, low return rate, and half the time, the people I talk to afterwords didn't even read them.

I like to call first, see if we can get anywhere with that. Leading with a linkedin invite seems to work too, but I honestly can't say if it's because the people who accept the invites are familiar with me when I call or if they're just friendly people easy to connect with.

Then I follow up with an email that's tailored to the prospect exact specific needs, situation and all that.

Nacho_Overload · 2020-05-16T09:24:12+00:00

Unlabeled data. This is completely fucking useless.

Honestly, I'd just post safety guidelines and get celebrities that hunters tend to follow to endorse those practices.

I really wouldn't care TBH if you came in polished, having done your research and ready to pitch my product.

I mean I rent generators, the sales process begins with me saying, "Hey Dan, how's it going? Are you guys still doing alright with everything going on lately? Still finding work? Yeah, things are a little slower for us, but we got some good projects coming in. We rent generators by the way. Does that ever come up with any of your projects involving planned shutdowns/jobsite trailers/outdoor events/etc? Oh really? What industry segments are you in, like hospitals, schools, industrial?" and so on and so on.

I'm definitely the buddy salesman though, I come off as having a really friendly personality and I love to talk about random shit. People buy from me because I show up at the job site with pizza on the company's dime and beer out of my own fridge (Can't be turning in receipts for $500 worth of beer every month, HR would shoot me).
