  • It’s like blaming an ethernet cable for giving your computer a virus.

    The designer of the virus is the asshole, and you would be the idiot who went to the website.

    You are right that mental pain is an exaggeration, but it’s the accumulation of insufferable interactions that make you hate retail. When 25% of people expect you to act for them, you feel like a puppet. YES the business demands this, but the customer invokes it. So don’t invoke it and let workers sigh relief when you decide not to try to “test” their company response. Is this really that complicated?












  • I havent claimed to be an expert I have asked for support to claim that America’s education system is terrible as was inferred. You linked me a high view course with many different topics and have not given any indication that you know about this topic.

    You speak in generalities and tell me to find out the specifics for myself. If you asked me questions about my field in computer science I would be specific and try to be helpful for someone wanting to learn more about it.

    Yes I am lacking knowledge on this topic. But I have a brain and when I see someone disparage a country’s education system based off of a single percentage statistic I’m allowed to shit on it. The onus in on the person who makes a claim.


  • We can’t trust anyone as an authority when users are anonymous. All claims are subject to the burden of providing supporting documentation.

    Not questioning claims simply because they jive with the general sentiment that America is the worst is deluded.

    You can assert whatever you want.

    Why is it that every time I take a moment to check on the information presented i find that american literacy is consistent over time and with other countries? Figure 14-1 page 46.

    I don’t have time to look at studies on this. But I’m not asserting beyond doubt that I’m right. I just haven’t gotten any supporting documentation from you or OP to support the idea that american education is terrible like he casually infers with a partially relevant statistic.
