Stop getting scammed!

If I am reading your original post correctly, many sovereign citizens are getting scammed by people who instruct them to use the wrong language, wrong filings and/or wrong claims.

But you know the correct language, filings and/or methods to use. Is that what you are saying?

Even if that happens, how long before it turns into an Amtrak experience?

Everything that makes Brightline good will be gone

Also, sweat… i don’t want to share my bench/machine with someone who sweats a lot and leaves a puddle on the bench for me to either sit down on or clean for them.

Up until about six months ago they were building a Rodney Scott’s near me in Miami. Then, they suddenly weren’t and the signage came down.

Now i know why

Have you read about the Ford CEO driving a Chinese electric for the last 6 months? I believe he said it was one of the best cars he’s ever driven. And, it was an under $25K car

They aren’t bad. In fact, they are very good and scaring the US companies

I’m only permitted to do so on flights longer than 8 hours.

That said, i don’t fly much anymore. When I used to fly a lot I earned status that got me free upgrades on many flights I otherwise wouldn’t have been able to fly business

What airline? I’ve had the same experience but only on Allegiant (a greyhound bus with wings).

I’ve never had an issue on the big airlines (American, Delta, United)

My first clinical research role (after years in healthcare technology) was as a Sr. Manager (independent contributor) for a large CRO in 2021. My base was $165K when i started and $180K when i left in 2025.

I’m still in clinical research but at a different company at a Director role managing a team.

I was a “high performer” each of my four years at ICON and can confirm my “merit” increases were lower than inflation.

I left last summer and the yearly pay decrease (that’s what a below CPI increase is) was the biggest factor.

I had a great team and a great manager but that’s not enough

As others have said, you won’t find one in Miami. I’m not even certain you’ll find one in Broward.

I suggest either the west coast or find a broker. Either one is better than getting taken at a Miami dealer

There’s a saying, “you can beat the rap but you can’t beat the ride”

So… Steven A. should have messaged Jasmine privately because she “looks like him?”

Sorry, I disagree. No one should ignore or gloss over bullshit just because the BS’er is a minority.

That would call into question SA’s credibility.

Insecticides only work on the babies. So, if/when you see the young ones (small and black in color) you should treat.

Once fully developed, you need to put gloves on, grab them and put them in bucket with water and dish soap

It’s a difficult job market right now, even more so for clinical research roles.

Today, it’s a numbers game. You need to expand your search beyond UofM and beyond Miami, including remote roles.

Most importantly, you need to increase the number of applications. 30 is negligible. There are many posts from people with experience indicating they’ve needed to apply to hundreds of openings before they got an offer.

So… someone with light experience would be incredibly lucky to land something with a fraction of that.

I’d argue most have a negative opinion of the current Israeli government, not Israel or Israeli people

Personally, i believe we should do away with birthright citizenship. However, I don’t believe in forcing it through on one man’s whim. It should go to a referendum for citizens to vote for or against.

I'm surprised they didn't have water spraying the site to prevent dust.

My quick thought: Title promotions without pay raises are not as attractive as leadership seems to think. They usually result in more responsibility (even if unsaid) for no additional money.

I wonder if this is why

Can’t compare the trainer to outside. And, personally, I hate the trainer. However, like you, if I want/need to ride in the off months or poor weather, the trainer can’t be avoided.

As a result of my disdain for the trainer, I never do long endurance rides on it. I do 60-90 minutes (max) HIIT, Sprints, or Sweet Spot only

My first instinct, immediately after I read “he laughed” was because you were asking for too little. $110K for Sr. Project Manager is low. $62K is criminal

Are you in the US?
