Quoting: Anonymous Coward 32443214 Then one day last spring, Bob’s employer, an American infrastructure company, thought its computer network had been attacked by a virus. The ensuing forensic probe revealed that Bob’s software code had in fact been the handiwork of a Chinese subcontractor. ============= Bob was paying a Chinese firm about $50,000 a year to do his work, then spent the day surfing the web, watching cat videos and updating his Facebook page. [link to www.theglobeandmail.com] Thats funny as hell, he paid someone else to do his work. It may have been going on for years to be honest with you. [link to www.s8int.com] “If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.” Quote from Joseph Goebbels Hitlers propaganda man. |

Lillith User ID: 32488076 United States 01/17/2013 11:18 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I seem to recall there was a book called "The 4-Hour Workweek" by Timothy Feriss where he said workers should do just this: outsource their jobs to virtual assistants using labor arbitrage because you can hire someone for a few dollars to do your work for you and then you collect your salary. I always thought it was a bad idea. This "model employee" should have routed his work computer to a server at his home. Then we would still be getting away with this. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 31159128 United States 01/18/2013 01:13 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | sometimes you feel sad for something you left behind because you have no imagination. She left him for a reason and it pained her greatly to do it. Now she doesn't remember why because feeling sorry for herself is easier than creating the life that she envisioned. Sometimes I feel sad for lost relationships but really it is just emotional nonsense because do I really want that person living with me? No, not really. It was over. I am actually quite ok with my decisions, or rather the path that things took -I do not always feel in retrospect that I made decisions but more that events occurred that changed things. It's ok. But of course I say that at 50, I had a child who is now a woman herself. At 30 or even 40 I felt more letdown by events than I do now. Now I look for joy wherever I can find it and I think there is lots of it to be had. |
