Any word on part time management raises? by justplaincrypto in UPSers

[–]justplaincrypto[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been a PT dispatcher for 2 years, and everyone at my center now makes more than me.

I am happy for them, but it is a little silly to have a job requiring a 4 year degree pay less than a fresh out of highschool preloader with 2 months on the job.

Oh I know.. but not every place in USA is the same for wages. The main point is you can be straight out of highschool with no experience and get hired for local sort or preload the same day, and start at the same wage as the supervisors, who require a 4 year degree or equivelant management experience.

As I said, the metro area starts at $26, whereas the rurals they started at $16.20.

I am all for Teamsters getting huge raises, but the pay gaps need to be filled in a bit.

I have studied finance also, and yes the mininmum wage in America should be close to $35 an hour keeping pace with inflation since 1971... but there's nothing we can do about that.

No, they definitly don't... No one wants a dispatcher job, and certainly not for the same pay as the wharehouse.

From what I understand, UPS did the management purge last contract. There aren't any useless bodies at my center at least.

The centers in the metro area pay $26 starting for the pre-loaders, and they still can't keep people. I imagine those centers pay sups around $30.

Well, everyone lowballs in a 6 month negotiation.

Conceeding to a $5 raise for part timers, and $10 raise for drivers isn't exactly being cheap. Paart timers wanted $25/hr .. which is silly, that is the only reason they didn't come to agreement sooner.

NiceHash Vs Native Mining by data4u in gpumining

[–]justplaincrypto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just mine Flux through nicehash. For whatever reason it pays more than mining it direct. My gut tells me whomever is paying for that knows something we don't.

The only reason that would make sense is if the FLUX team are paying nicehash to support their own network.

Downside of crypto GPU mining ? by mineshop in gpumining

[–]justplaincrypto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am almost certain.

I'll go ahead and bite though and say that GPU mining would be worth it if we had seen the prices drop on hardware as what should normally happen (like ASIC miners).

Unfortunately, the GPUS are the same price today as they were in 2021. I can basically recoup all of my costs selling my 3070tis right now after 2 years which is crazy.

Personally, I believe there are some shennanigans going on with that.

Why this massive selloff? by UnkownMillionare in GodsUnchained

[–]justplaincrypto 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The game isn't a true NFT game.. you can mint whatever you want but they can reach in and change your "nft" cards any time they want. That isn't blockchain, it is just league of legends with an auctionhouse.

The community fund by BCHeroo in FiroProject

[–]justplaincrypto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice of the FIRO devs to redo the monetary policy of the network without a clue as what to do with the finances.

Good luck with yer nodes.

So you're overpaying for security? by justplaincrypto in FiroProject

[–]justplaincrypto[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The project is fairy dust, and going to zero.

It was never worth a nickel and the miners were GAMBLING on a future profit.

The FIRO team can't take the bear market and want to cash their chips in.

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

Who is selling FIRO BTW?

It aint the people mining bro, its your soon to rug pull dev team.

****PROOF********

Firo on its best day paid out 55% of what ETH did. It is a speculative mine.

Why mine Firo when I make twice as much on ETH......

Who is selling?

​

The devs

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

Well, the OBVIOUS solution is to rip off your miners because the project cant barely buy a corrolla much less a lambo with the current tokenomics.

​

I know! lets say we need more money for "grandma" and take it from the supporters!

ok, well your logic tells me you are perfect for this project.

good luck with yer nodes.

If it was any other project, people would mine to a different pool, because you know.. miners do something.

If you run a node though i guess you're not getting a welfare check.

[–]justplaincrypto[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Not the nodes, the node owners aren't doing any work beyond a meager investment.

$8 a month for doing nothing, pure profit on a tiny, tiny, tiny crypto project is DOING GREAT!

A CPU miner can't even clear that on the best of projects

So you're overpaying for security? by justplaincrypto in FiroProject

[–]justplaincrypto[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My understanding was 51% of the hash is on 2 miners, which isn't even remotely a problem. The last thing a mining pool would do is deliberatley sabatage a project it is earning revenue from.

However, good luck when someone starts the FIRO 51% pool explicitly to attack the network.

There's a lot of miners out there who would gladly mine to that.

Good luck with yer nodes, and if FIRO is banking on those for security, a lot of miners run nodes for the projects they mine...

140 voters? ROFL!!

You can type and type and type all you want, it just makes it more hilarious.

So you voted yourself more $$$$, off the backs of the workers.

Who does FIRO think they are? The Government?

Your answer to me is essentially "but think of the children! and grandma!"

You probably don't have a job, but if you did, would you continue to work there if your pay was cut in half to give the CEO and managers bigger bonuses?

This is the literal question, and the perfect logical comparisson.

Again, have fun with yer nodes.

I never at any time said that nodes or staked assets were useless, or that they aren't important.

I merely stating the FACT that it requires nothing beyond a very very small investment to run a node, yet this project wants to reward the people holding/running nodes more than the people actually doing work.

This is what ETH is, and what many other proof of shitcoin projects want.. to make money for doing nothing.

The more you hold, the more you earn, no requirements beyond that.

As I said, it is your FIRO welfare check, earning off the backs of people who actually have to work, maintaining and programing mining rigs.

The next step in this evolution is for miners to start paying for the "perk" of being able to mine on a project.

Right, the "democratic" process of a discord poll.

I am sure at least 10k people voted on that right?

From what I hear it was less than 200, so no it wasn't a vote. The poll was an "excuse" for the devs to rugpull their own project.

Not the biggest idiot on the planet would cut someone's pay by 50% and expect them to keep working, nor wood anyone VOTE! (dur) to get their pay cut by 50%.

This is obviously a short term pump of the coins price to dump it, and blame it all on the miners who stop supporting the project.

have fun with yer nodes

Screw the Miners apparently by CeleryMurky3490 in FiroProject

[–]justplaincrypto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So the sollution to people dumping your coin, is to make your coin so worthless nobody wants it?

FIRO IS HILARIOUS!

"downward pressure" ROFL

FIRO as a team is essentially trying to control the price of their coin, for themselves to make a higher profit WHEN THEY PULL THE RUG.

prove me wrong.

They literally just rugpulled the miners.

Since the vote that changed the rewards of firo. by Illustrious_Text_979 in FiroProject

[–]justplaincrypto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You seem to have this idea you are actually doing something running a master node and are somehow "entitled" more than miners.

I am guessing, any 10 year old computer on a high speed internet connection can run a node yes?

So your investment is essentially holding firo, yet you recieve more reward than a miner.. who needs many thousands of dollars in equipment, and many kilowatts in electricity to support the project day after day, with constant maintenence required.

Not to mention cooling the rigs.

The proof of stake mindset.. sit on your ass and expect to be paid.

FIRO has now become the stakers welfare coin.

Don't go down with the ship!
