Contemplate Cloth has a review and giveaway of the Snappi at
that ends on 3/13, so go check it out soon! The Snappi is pretty awesome as their detailed review will show (they have pictures), and as I can now attest to, having used it for the first time yesterday....
Yesterday morning my little guy woke up with a slightly red spot on his pee pee, so we wanted to let him air out a bit. My husband thought that just not putting a diaper on him and hoping he didn't potty would be a great idea. Honestly, I didn't think that would be so great. Okay, so we have mostly pocket diapers..... that won't work. We have some flats and covers..... don't really want to cover him though. Then I remembered I owned a Snappi. I own a Snappi. One. I originally purchased it so I could reach the free shipping ($49 and up = free shipping at Kellyscloset.com) for my diaper order. I never used it. In fact, I just thought it would be neat to have to show to people who think you have to use pins with cloth diapers still. I never really thought I'd use it..... at least not on our son (now 13 months). Maybe for the next one when they come along, but certainly not before then!
Well, of course, I was wrong. I searched the house and finally found it, new in the package. I opened it and stretched it out like recommended.... then realized I had no idea how to fold a cloth diaper other than the tri-fold (or pad-fold) to put in a cover. Let the learning commence! I wish I photographed (or even videoed!) my attempts at folding a diaper before I gave up and used the wonderful youtube.com to find a video for the origami fold. It worked great, but then getting my son diapered was a different story. SOOOOOOO wiggly! I finally got him diapered, snappi secured, and stood him up. There was a gap at his legs. I tweaked the diaper a bit and rolled the edges a bit too, then re-snappied.
Voila! I did it! No cover was put on so he could air a bit, and I told him to go show his daddy. I was so proud that I did this that I guided my son towards my husband. He toddled up near his daddy and I picked him up to show to my husband.... and noticed that the diaper was already wet.
Needless to say, he wet FOUR flats in those couple hours. I think he wanted to make sure that I didn't forget how to do the fold! I did accidentally scratch my son's hip with my second Snappi attempt, but not enough for him to cry. His eyes did get wide and he whimpered a fraction of a second.... cue guilt. Mega guilt. I looked and it wasn't that bad, but I decided that I would put my finger under the diaper to hold it away from his skin a bit before reapplying the snappi. I was using my OsoCozy flats, so it wasn't exactly a thick material... but that's what we wanted for breathe-ability.
All in all, I was very thankful that I purchased the Snappi. I didn't think I'd use it, but it was a lot easier to use than I could have imagined.
By noon, my son had no redness and was back in a pocket diaper.

Currently, instances of FEEDER_AUDIT (common IM, "archetyped" package) can
be attached to any item in an openEHR structure, created due to imported
data. Each FEEDER_AUDIT instance includes a system_id attribute in order
to identify the source system. Originally, it was envisaged that if there
were other finer-grained ids could be included in the system_id, but this
is not very clear, and likely to be used on an ad hoc basis. A more structured
approach to identifiers in the originating and gateway systems is needed.

A lawsuit has been filed in the Galveston County District Court that claims physicians treating a man at the University of Texas Medical Branch in Galveston lost a portion of the man's skull.
The lawsuit was filed by the family of a Henderson County man who reportedly fell while cleaning the top of a tanker trailer resulting in serious injuries to his head and body.
The injured man was immediately taken to UTMB where surgeons removed the top of his skull to combat the swelling of the man's brain. The lawsuit claims that the surgeons planned to replace the skull cap when the swelling had subsided, but when the time came to move forward with the procedure the portion or the skull that was to be used was nowhere to be found and an artificial material was used instead.
The suit also accuses Brenner Tank, Brenner Tank Services and Southern Tank Leasing of manufacturing, distributing, or selling a defective tank. The plaintiffs allege that the lack of fall protection lead directly to the man's fall and injuries.
According to the lawsuit the man remains hospitalized due to the severity of his injuries and has been deemed incompetent by his physicians.
This is a terrible tragedy that may have been prevented completely if the tanker would have had greater fall prevention mechanisms would have been in place.
Hopefully the family will see justice served.

Who is she?
Deni.z is an emotional person, which can be disconcerting because she is also rather secretive and introverted (association of 7 and 22/4). However, this doesn´t prevent her from conversing with ease and animation with those she feels affinity with, or once she feels comfortable enough in her environment. One day she could be solitary and unsociable, hiding away in her shell, safe from the world; and the next, driven by curiosity or stimulated by her environment, she´ll poke her head out to see if there isn´t somebody worth talking to, after all. Nevertheless, she remains something of a misfit, mysterious, inaccessible and just beyond the grasp of human understanding. Of eclectic intelligence, she has a critical, even cynical mind; but at the same time, she is fascinated by all that is odd, irrational and unorthodox... She stands out from the crowd thanks to her originality, which isn´t usually a problem as an adult, however in childhood she is likely to perceive this as an exclusion, and this could reinforce certain inhibitions, exacerbating her sensitivity, and perhaps even provoking an inferiority complex. Quite often, her childhood isn´t easy, because her parents may never be aware the depth of her personality. They should encourage her to make the most of her gift for language, because she has a way with words and communicates extremely effectively. Given the complexity of this child, we could distinguish two apparently contradictory characters: Deni.z talkative and little scattered with a nervous disposition (especially if she was born on the 3rd, 12th, 21st or 30th) and Deni.z the introverted intellectual whose words evaporate before they see the light of day (especially if her birthday is on the 4th, 7th, 13th, 16th, 22nd, 25th or 31st)... There may be a tendency to oscillate between periods of high energy (sociability, enthusiasm, intense communication and optimism...) and lows (misanthropy, scepticism, reticence, pessimism and even depression).
What does she like?
She enjoys conversation and the exchange of ideas, as well as expressing herself in different ways (artistic, creative or oral), writing, speaking and singing are almost as necessary as breathing to her. Moreover, it is usually thanks to her curiosity (her worst flaw as well as her greatest strength) that she makes progress in life, as well as the people she meets and the exchanges that take place. The supernatural appeals to her inquisitive nature, and sooner or later she could be drawn to investigation of spiritualism, mysticism or parapsychology. Her emotional life is rarely simple because she never exposes her deepest feelings, even when she is at her most loquacious! She prefers to keep people guessing, risking disappointment, but deep down she will feel misunderstood. She is far more likely to be attracted a man´s mind than his wallet, because the material realm is of secondary importance to her, if not ancillary...

What does she do?
Two rather opposing orientations could coexist, depending on whether the 4 or 7 predominate in relation to the 3: professions involving research, analysis, the art of diagnosis and other modern techniques, occupations where fine skills in expression, communication and persuasion are required: sales, representation or public relations..., unless she decides to cultivate her artistic talent, in which case she could "make a song and dance" about it and embark on a career as a professional singer dancer or actress...

Before we proceed to dropping the Telegram dating groups links for you join, let's quickly talk about the difference between Telegram Dating Groups and Telegram Dating Channels
Telegram Dating Groups and Telegram Dating Channels differences
Most people prefer to join Telegram dating groups because you can chat unlike a Telegram dating channel were you're only restricted to viewing whatever the Telegram groups admins posts without being able to drop comments, even though your're a member.
In short, a Telegram dating channel is equivalent to the broadcasting feature on giant chat/messaging app, Whatsapp but its features makes it more outstanding and powerful.
Telegram channels can have unlimited subcribers and can be used to send broadcast messages to a large audience of subscribers.
ALSO READ: American Single Ladies Phone Numbers For Friendship
Telegram dating groups have members while Telegram dating channels have subscribers. In channels, every post has its viewer count next to it and a new subscriber can see the the oldest posts that were shared on the channel from day of its creation.
Telegram groups do not have posts views counters, however, one major advantage they have over Telegram channels is that you can chat with members directly in the groups while in Telegram dating channels, only the group admin(s) have the ability to send messages which can only be read by its subscribers.
Channels are mostly used by celebrities or media with a large fan base/audience.
For example, a celebrity can keep his/her readers updated in his channel but the downside is that he/she doesn't get to interact with them.
Having explained the different between a Telegram dating group and a Telegram dating channel, let's quickly move onto the next topic which is..
How do I join telegram dating groups and channels?

"At any street corner, the feeling of absurdity can strike any man in the face."
Albert Camus
The story that follows isn't unique to this Rust Belt city.
It has occurred, over and over, across the Rust Belt – across the U.S. – for the past 35 years.
What's amazing is it is still unfolding.
What's even more amazing is how complacent everyone has remained.
About the loss of jobs.
About the weak or non-existent development efforts for local economies.
About how the U.S. will sink into serfdom, not by the threats of socialism (as Hayek suggested)…
…but by the reality of our apathy, our denial, or our ignorance.
I simply wanted to commit this story to writing, as a way to preserve it, in case anyone ever asks, "What happened?"
That is, if there is anyone left who cares enough in the future to ask.
No one is asking now. [1]
Globalization's Mausoleums
The spirits of past General Electric workers reside here.
This is one of the buildings currently under demolition at General Electric's Broadway campus in Fort Wayne, Indiana. To the right is an opening where another GE building, of similar size, once stood.
Last year, GE closed down a testing lab, the last operation of any kind on the campus. It employed some 28 people at the end.
At its height, General Electric employed over 10,000 employees in Fort Wayne; almost all were well-paying jobs.
"Well-paying jobs" means well above what is commonly referred to today as a "living wage," which in itself is above the minimum wage, doesn't allow you to starve, but certainly doesn't provide enough after the bills are paid to do things like, oh, save for retirement or switch Aunt Martha from a Medicaid-based nursing home.
This is in my hometown, and I grew up not far from the campus, and not far from another General Electric campus just a mile to the west of this location (which is also in the process of being abandoned).
In my youth (the '60s), I remember the narrow, two-lane streets around the campus jammed with traffic at shift change, and three shifts were running at the height of production. Many workers lived in the neighborhoods surrounding the campus, populated with homes built in the 1920s. In the morning, workers filled the sidewalks, carrying their metal lunch pails, proudly walking to General Electric jobs.
Yes, there was a time when factory workers proclaimed, "I work at GE," with a tone of pride in their voice.
General Electric in Fort Wayne
This GE campus is surrounded by a number of parking lots, once overflowing with cars.
Now they're littered with sewer pipes.
Electrical manufacturing has had a long history in Fort Wayne. The Fort Wayne Jenney Electric Company started there in 1881, operating at a couple of different sites before moving into a building that had been recently vacated by the Gause Agricultural Works. The location of this building was on Broadway (the same location where these pictures were taken), the move undertaken some 134 years ago.
In centralized capitalism time, that's ancient history.
From a muddy history written in 1917, I learned this local company ran into financial problems, apparently a casualty of the Panic of 1893. General Electric bought (a?) (the?) plant in 1899 out of receivership – something something – continued (some?) (all?) the operations as Fort Wayne Electric Works, with GE as a partial owner (?) – something something – then merged FWEW with its own operations in 1911, ever since using "General Electric" on the buildings.
That's clear.
As the campus grew, so too did the neighborhoods surrounding it. No suburb to urban commutes here: The workers lived near the plant, and walked to work.
They were proud to be living in the shadow of a General Electric plant.
And General Electric was an integral part of that neighborhood.
General Electric in the Community
This used to be the GE Recreation and Bowling Club. The sign is fading from the sun. It hosted numerous activities for employees throughout the year, and occasionally opened its doors to the public. Once, my friends and I rode there on our bikes to attend a fishing show. An older employee, who was very good (and very quick) at tying fishing flies was handing them out to us kids. I still have the fly he made for me, resting in my tackle box, still unused. It holds a special place within my tackle.
As a kid, I remember most families in that neighborhood having only one car. Dads walked to work. They didn't need the complexity of having more than one car in the family. Most garages were single-car units. Moms stayed at home, watching not only over their own children, but those from the neighborhood. Our "child care" flowed with us wherever we went, as we followed our whims: sandlot baseball, bike-riding excursions, building plastic-brick garages (in the PL, or Pre-Lego, era) for our Matchbox cars, or playing Cowboys and Indians with a circular formation of boulders serving as a fort. We ate lunch at whatever house we were inhabiting at noon.
It was a circumscribed existence, to be sure, and one that wouldn't be welcomed today. But the roles were accepted then, and the existence was simple. Kids didn't survive on Ritalin, and parents didn't survive on Xanax. No one burned their candle at both ends.
There was, of course, the occasional adult who self-medicated from a bottle, but let's not destroy the nostalgic moment right now.
Then, the neighborhood was solidly middle income, what with the wages the workers made. Now it is lower middle income, and it's very likely I'm being too generous with that characterization. In fact, most of the families there today tip in and out of poverty, dependent upon the work they can find at any given time.
Right now, the kids haven't the time for sandlot baseball. They're dealing, trying to find ways of bringing extra income into the family.
In The Wake of Free Trade
Some of the oldest buildings (predating World War I) on the campus remain… for now. The iron fences rust, the parking lots slowly devolve into cracks and weeds, the buildings populate with mold.
These are the mausoleums of globalization, graveyards created in the pursuit of "free trade."
How "free trade" evolved is a rather curious thing. Economic theory tells us it is a necessity. Country A excels at making guns, Country B excels at making butter. They trade, based on their comparative advantages.
But this is a lie. There is no comparative advantage at play in today's globalized economy or free trade. Low-cost labor markets, such as found in Southeast Asia, hold absolute advantage. That is, they are capable of making everything the U.S. (or Europe) can make, for lower costs.
That's not comparative advantage, that's absolute advantage.
Absolute advantage or not, it really never was about trade advantages. When corporations champion "free trade," they do so in pursuit of one goal: to find the lowest labor costs.
This has nothing to do with trading goods.
And multinational corporations grew quite adept at finding the lowest labor costs. In fact, corporations really didn't offshore jobs so much as they simply shut down their own manufacturing operations, then contracted out the work overseas.
With such a carefully executed shift in labor practices to avoid detection, it becomes extremely difficult to track the number of jobs lost in the U.S. since 1980. But the elite economists – aiming to please their corporate
johns clients – will carefully explain why things have to be this way, based on their mathematically elegant marginal analyses.
But it doesn't require a damn economist to tell those living in the neighborhoods around the abandoned GE campus in Fort Wayne that this "free trade" horseshit isn't working for them (2016.11.09 update: This also explains why Donald Trump found his way to the White House.)
In today's globalized economy, the perfect corporation is seen as a single hallway holding C-suite offices, and a receptionist answering the phone (but not answering the calls of customers; the phone number is handed out to VIPs only). Manufacturing, accounting, engineering, marketing and customer service functions are all outsourced. [4]
But such corporations continue to issue shares of stock.
Stock in a company that leases out a hallway.
What these C-suite pinheads seem unable to comprehend is that as all corporations pursued this idealized business plan in the aggregate, there were fewer and fewer employees/customers remaining who could afford to buy the products of the other, downsizing, corporations. Most of the jobs of those employees/customers were outsourced, or offshored, or simply eliminated.
When one drains the swamp, the ecosystem dies.
To be sure, the ecosystem went on life support for awhile, riding on the back of the household debt that substituted for stagnant or falling incomes. But that joy ride came to an end in 2008 when household debt finally hit the wall, unable to take on more debt with the ever-slimmer incomes still available.
That wreck we now know as the "Global Financial Crisis," which sounds better than the "Second Great Depression." Technically, it was an economic depression, but didn't feel like one since the U.S. Federal Reserve pursued historically unprecedented monetary loosening, a.k.a., "quantitative easing."
And now the European Common Bank is pursuing the same easing.
Precious little of that money found its way into middle-income households. Most of it was used to drive up stock and commodity prices, i.e., synthetic inflation, which is price inflation that is not backed by real demand, but rather by completely uninhibited speculation activity.
However, the ecosystem will eventually die. It's not a matter of "if," but "when."
Yet, central bankers and C-suite pinheads never had to take a class in ecology or biology. They can't appreciate the fact that severed from a functional ecosystem – that is, employees needing access to well-paying jobs to become customers again without accumulating more debt – the economic life within dies off.
But the idea of higher wages – or the other side of the same coin, "higher labor costs" – is an affront to corporations and their singular focus on "profit maximization."
The C-suite pinheads cannot understand that profit maximization is self annihilation.
Strong Backs, Weak Minds
Behind this barricade resides a building bearing one of the few GE logos still seen on the campus.
This was the human resources office (at the lower right you can still see a sample of the electric motors once made there, still proudly and publicly displayed, with no sense of embarrassment). The gate used to be open to the public, where one walked through to apply for a well-paying job, holding nothing more than a high-school diploma.
This was a diploma that recognized a well-rounded education in math, science, and language, everything a worker needed to intelligently function in a factory. If something was missing from that education, the worker attended company training sessions to acquire the skills for their job.
Free of charge.
Those diploma-wielding applicants from a bygone era even knew how to sign their name, in cursive, on the employment applications.
Ever since Harry Truman was U.S. president, however, we have seen presidential administrations come and go, talking about the need to reform education. [5] Countless state governors have said as much. Over and over, the same mantra:
We need educational reform.
All that "educational reform" provided us with U.S. (a developed economy) high-school students not only testing lower than many developing (formerly known as second-world) nations (e.g., China, Korea… Swaziland? I guess if you consider Tunisia "upper middle income" as the UN does then yes, Swaziland), but even some (formerly known as third-world nations but still as impoverished) "emerging" or "economies in transition" or "least developed" nations (e.g., yes, Swaziland).
We need more educational reform.
So we reformed education, by dumbing down the academic curriculum and lowering the bar so severely that even a chimp would be insulted by the banality that passes for education in these United States.
And pity the poor student who is actually intelligent, but the standardized tests can't detect as much, so he or she acts out in class to overcome the tedium forced on that student after being thrown into lower-lane classes. Shove Ritalin down the s.o.b.'s throat, just as long as they "behave."
But I veer off course.
So behind closed doors, political leaders really don't want educated citizens. That's dangerous. Educated citizens can actually talk to one another. They can disagree without immediately reaching for hyperbole-riddled arguments. They can make knowledgeable connections between cause and effect.
And an educated citizen can reason why they cannot find a well-paying job.
And become angry.
No, no, that's dangerous. "Educational reform" has just become another buzz word to pull out of the PR toolbox during political campaign season.
But what political and economic leaders really want are strong backs and weak minds. Strong backs to undertake the menial work that remains in the U.S., and weak minds to hamper the reasoning that would otherwise question why their lives are drifting towards serfdom.
Some people say a man is made outta mud
A poor man's made outta muscle and blood
Muscle and blood and skin and bones
A mind that's a-weak and a back that's strong
You load sixteen tons, what do you get
Another day older and deeper in debt
Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go
I owe my soul to the company store
-"Sixteen Tons," by Merle Travis
Fort Wayne's Unrequited Love for Spirits Past
The city leaders of Fort Wayne have long lived in denial over the realities settling into their city, nor (after some 35 years when the first of the big closures, International Harvester, took place) do they seem to know how to address these realities.
Here, I'd normally suggest looking at case studies such as Austin, Texas or the Golden Triangle area in Mississippi, or learning how to build core competencies in a city that holds precious few. But that would require reading and research rather than sitting in a bar after hours, pulling ideas out of dark crevices after the onset of a good bourbon buzz.
International Harvester (now Navistar) used to employ over 12,000 employees at its height, all well-paying jobs. Then there were the well-paying jobs that could be found at Phelps Dodge, Zollner Pistons, Magnavox, Central Soya, Essex, Tokheim Pump. The list goes on and on.
And all cease to exist.
And no credible response has ever been mounted. But the city does host a downtown baseball park, and a shiny convention center, and two downtown hotels that have to be subsidized by the city in order to stay in operation.
Take that to the bank.
Above is a picture of McCulloch Park, adjacent to General Electric's abandoned Broadway campus. There was a time bands would play in the pagoda seen in the background. The admission was free, the performance paid for by GE. Crowds would fill the park for an evening of entertainment.
Long gone are those days. Now, the park hosts a small playground for neighborhood kids. But the playground sits gathering black grit from the atmosphere, largely unused. The park is cut off from the neighborhoods to the west, as there is no longer a traffic light with a pedestrian crosswalk, where children can safely pass from one side of the street to the other.
The City of Fort Wayne's denial has led to some rather curious things, such as seen in the microcosm that is McCulloch Park. In the foreground of the picture above, one can see a relatively new section of sidewalk installed, equipped to accommodate the handicapped. It leads to an empty side street. On the other side of the street sits an empty GE parking lot. The sidewalk ramp was constructed as the park and the parking lot fell into disuse.
It is a ramp that leads to nowhere. It is filled with the crumbling concrete of the park's older sidewalks, washed off by torrential rains, making it very difficult for the wheelchair-bound to cross the street and reach the abandoned parking lot on the other side.
Yet, there it is, an enhancement to a park whose better days are long past.
But the city's leaders can be forgiven for the confusion, as GE has sent mixed signals for decades. General Electric itself seems unsure how to discretely approach the very public dismantling of their unwanted campus. GE retirees report there were rumors about the company's desire to shut down its Fort Wayne operations as far back as the '70s. GE kept scraping together increasingly smaller operations there as a way of tactfully winding down its presence.
And as a way to divert attention from the inevitable, installing memorials that hold no meaning (see below).
While GE management wasn't in denial, it seemed they have been very concerned about ways to save their corporate face in a community in which they have no interest remaining, thus preventing them from doing what they should have had the balls to do years ago:
Line up the bulldozers, mow down the campus in one massive sweep, and go home.
As a result of this hesitancy, now Fort Wayne finds itself mired in silly debates such as what the city should do with a large illuminated General Electric sign that rests on top of another GE building that will soon, no doubt, be demolished.
This wouldn't have occurred had GE pursued the tactical plan of bulldozing the campus flat. Being such an in-your-face move, hopefully the city's leaders would have shown GE management that they had balls and proceeded to tell GE to simply piss off…
…that they possessed the sense to stop clinging to the past and the know-how to develop for the future.
This would have prevented the Great Sign Debate with a company that doesn't have manufacturing in a city that wants to memorialize a company that no longer manufactures in the city.
That, of course, would have been too sudden, a shock if you will. We certainly don't want to upset the civic sensibilities of the community now, do we?
Please, look past the absurdity of it all.
But the sign doesn't belong to the city anyway. It still belongs to General Electric. And GE has discussed moving it to their appliance-assembly operations in Louisville, Kentucky. [2]
Notice I said "assembly operations," not "manufacturing operations." That's because most of the parts used in GE appliances are made on foreign soil, then bolted together in Louisville so GE can claim they make the appliances here in the U.S.
I go too far afield.
Back to the sign.
Even if the city gains possession of the sign, what purpose does it serve? To remind all the serfs workers in Fort Wayne that their grandfathers once had well paying jobs there? I think the tower marking the entrance at the former International Harvester complex does a great job as that kind of reminder.
Do we need two scoops of salt to pour into our civic wounds?
Pathetic Irony
In 1994, the dwindling number of workers at General Electric donated this memorial to the City of Fort Wayne in recognition of the city's bicentennial. The memorial doesn't mark General Electric's Fort Wayne activities, nor its past symbiotic relationship with the city, nor thanks the city for hosting General Electric there for well over half of Fort Wayne's existence.
No, the memorial simply marks the grave of Indiana's seventh governor, Samuel Bigger (governor, 1840-1844) resting behind the iron fence. It's a nicely polished, nicely engraved monument, in an otherwise deteriorating park, positioned not far from the soon-to-be-eradicated GE manufacturing campus.
And why Samuel Bigger, and he alone, is buried at McCulloch Park, I do not know. Nor could I hazard a guess.
Nor can I discern what in the hell any of this has to do with General Electric in Fort Wayne. Samuel Bigger lived before Edison ever invented the light bulb, much less the emergence of General Electric from the primordial capitalist soup.
To be fair, those remaining, few employees – whose pockets were emptied to contribute to this memorial – must have been embarrassed by the whole affair. The declaration of their contribution to the memorial is on the back side, down low and behind the iron fence that protects Governor Bigger's resting place.
It's almost as if the employees wanted their contributions to be unseen, or at least buried in an obscure footnote.
I wonder how much
Governor Smaller General Electric chipped in to memorialize Governor Bigger.
But once again, I digress.
The last operation of any significance at GE's Fort Wayne campus – the one employing those dwindling number of workers that helped erect a monument to Samuel Bigger – was actually a re-manufacturing operation. Workers would test the rejected electric motors made at GE's overseas operations, troubleshoot the problems, then commence to rebuild it to specifications.
American workers cleaning up the messes made by overseas workers who inherited the jobs once performed inside the other abandoned buildings at GE's Broadway campus.
This isn't just irony, it's "pathetic irony."
Sweet Irony
Finally, we find an old World War I memorial, located not far from the pagoda in McCulloch Park. On it are the names of General Electric employees who served in the armed services during that conflict. Behind it, one can see the ongoing demolition of General Electric buildings, progressing nicely.
In a single generation, onlookers will ask, "Why did General Electric erect a memorial to its employees here?" unaware of GE ever having a mammoth manufacturing campus nearby.
In two generations, onlookers will ask, "What was General Electric?" [3]
Or, you could also see it as Jeffrey Immelt does: "A simpler, more valuable GE." [7]
Regardless, you must understand that General Electric has a robust amount of manufacturing underway in China.
But China's government is wise. It doesn't allow a foreign corporation access to its labor markets without forming an alliance between it and a Chinese corporation possessing similar core competencies.
By this means, a Chinese electric-motor corporation can learn how to manufacture technologically advanced electric motors (and turbines and generators with militarily sensitive components) in a very short period of time. This allows the Chinese corporation to tap the knowledge base of General Electric, a knowledge base that took GE over a century to accumulate.
At some point, the Chinese will gain the ability to manufacture advanced-technology electric motors and similar products without the help of GE, thanks to a very truncated learning curve, courtesy of GE. China's government could then leverage its laws, such as anti-monopoly or anti-trust laws, to throw General Electric and all the other foreign multinational corporations out of China. They have recently started to use these laws against foreign multinationals, at this point more of a tactical move of harassment than outright banishment. [6]
Time will tell and if such a time arrives, GE may have nothing to return to except a leased hallway in the U.S., full of C-suite offices.
And a receptionist.
Could GE maintain any legal capacity to issue stock for a hallway?
If not, GE may, like its former Fort Wayne campus, close.
But if the office space is leased, no bulldozers will be required.
Now that?
That right there would be known as "sweet irony."
Simple Irony
Above is a satellite image from Google Maps showing most of the 32 acres of General Electric's Broadway campus in Fort Wayne. The yellow circle shows the location of the building being demolished, as seen in the first photo of this post. The green circle shows the location of the pagoda in McCulloch Park. The red outline provides an idea of the expansiveness of this former manufacturing complex of GE, soon to be one massive empty lot.
The illuminated General Electric sign – the center of the Great Sign Debate – resides on the roof of the inverted-L shaped building seen at the far northeast end of the campus, beaming its light towards downtown Fort Wayne.
If General Electric decides to give the sign to the city of Fort Wayne, perhaps the city can reduce the sign's maintenance costs by powering it with Chinese-made solar panels.
Chinese-made solar panels are cheap to buy, after all, and Fort Wayne needs "cheap" because it suffers from a dwindling tax base with which to fund its operating budget, to fund a functional school system, to fund infrastructure improvements, or fund core competencies that could be used to build Fort Wayne's now-depleted local economy for the future.
And that?
That's just simple irony.
On February 13, 2017, General Electric announced that it had "chosen a Baltimore firm to develop its (Fort Wayne) campus, a project estimated at roughly $284 million," with much fanfare in the local media.
And the grand vision for this $284 million would be to transition the campus to…
(cue crickets)
Cross Creek Partners said it "wants to learn what types of housing, amenities, offices and educational opportunities people are willing to support."
That's an admirable approach, rather than having developers dictate what it wants to foist on the local community. Yet, once the construction activity is over, how many permanent, full-time jobs does this create for Fort Wayne?
Cross Creek threw in an initial estimate of how the space would be divided: 37% residential, 30% "educational," 16% retail, 15% office, and 1% "amenities" (yes, there's a rounding error that prevents one reaching 100%).
Well, okay, but setting aside 31% of the space for retail and offices doesn't create jobs for those spaces, it just allows for their creation. And that creation doesn't occur unless local economic efforts develop a need for such spaces.
Despite the lack of details, the renderings portray a fantastically cozy campus, but it still leads back to one central question:
How is any of this development activity going to be supported with a local economy that is largely based on workers under 40 laboring as employees of temp agencies, not of the firms for which they work?
So Cross Creek, to answer your inquiry as to what "people are willing to support," it's this:
With those $12/hour temp jobs, not much.
A community arrives at such a dreary prognosis when it focuses its economic development efforts on unrealized consumer demand rather than develop for a supply of well-paying household incomes.
It's as if local leaders believe "build it, and they will come" is an undisputed maxim in life, rather than accept this phrase for what it truly is:
Hollywood fantasy.
Absurdity, indeed.
End Notes
[1] 2016.11.09 update: The 2016 election of Donald Trump to the Oval Office came, in part, from the rising anger and desperation emerging in American workers over globalization. It seems, however, that many of Trump's followers misdirect this anger towards red herring issues, rather than comprehending the substantive core issues at play. Regardless, will these issues be addressed under Trump's administration? Or did his voters just hand the hen-house key to the fox? We'll see.
[2] 2016.06.06 update: GE announced it sold its appliance operations to the Chinese appliance manufacturer Haier. Louisville no longer needs the sign, either. Next?
[3] 2016.12.15 update: And the process continues here… and here… and here… and here… and here… and here… and here….
[4] 2017.02.02 update: When I originally wrote this paragraph, I added for balance: "…outsourcing is beginning to come under suspicion, but what does this mean in practical outcomes?" To answer my own question, it turns out to be: "Nothing."
On February 2, 2017, The Wall Street Journal ran a story – "The End of Employees" – that detailed how companies are increasing their outsourcing. To put an underline on this trend, consider a sentence from this story: "Consulting firm Accenture PLC predicted last year that one of the 2,000 largest companies in the world will have 'no full-time employees outside of the C-suite' within 10 years."
I feared I was exaggerating a bit too much when I penned this paragraph. As it sadly turns out, I wasn't exaggerating at all.
[5] 2017.02.05 update: The one continuity in all the presidential administrations from Truman to Obama was that they kept up the pretense of appearing to be concerned about the state of public education in the U.S. With the nomination of Betsy DeVos for Secretary of Education, the Trump Administration is signaling that no one at the Federal government level will make the slightest effort to appear concerned about American public education.
Hey, maintaining smoke and mirrors for over 70 years can be so exasperating.
[6] 2017.03.16 update: Hhmmm, as originally predicted in this post two years ago, it seems China has taken a liking to mercantilism.
[7] 2017.07.25 update: It's unfortunate I'm not a technical analyst. Armed with a number of impressive, scientific-looking tables, graphs and curves, the audience would listen with rapt attention.
But I'm not a technical analyst.
When I wrote of General Electric's potential disappearance over two years ago, I did so relying on nothing more but my sheer intuition. Any corporation that focuses on two means – 1) merciless labor-cost cutting and 2) quick and massive profit margins – is bound to fail. Are there other corporations on the same path? Oh yes, and my outlook would remain the same for them, and for a society that hosts an assemblage of such corporations.
But if the reader won't settle for anything less than a technical analysis, consider Seeking Alpha's report, "Is a Breakup of General Electric Imminent?". The crunching of GE's 2Q 2017 numbers will be found within the links in this story.

As you're developing Python Wallaroo applications, there will come a time where you will need to do some debugging during your development process. Debugging can be as simple as inserting a
Debugging Using
print and
The simplest way to do some debugging would be to include a
>>> u = u'\ua000abcd\u07b4'
>>> print(u)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\ua000' in position 0: ordinal not in range(128)
With a streaming input application, you can't always be certain about the contents of the data you try to print. However, you can effectively avoid this sort of error by printing the byte representation of your data instead, using
print repr(data). In that case, the same code that resulted in an error before will provide a useful printout of the contents of the data object:
>>> u = u'\ua000abcd\u07b4'
>>> print repr(u)
Debugging Using PDB
If you need a more robust tool to do debugging, the Python standard library provides
pdb is an interactive debugger which gives you the option to set breakpoints, inspect the stack frames, and other features expected from an interactive debugger. A quick example of using
pdb in your application would be importing the
pdb module and then calling its
set_trace() function. The
import pdb command goes in the module you pass to
--application-module when running
machida or
machida3. Usage example:
import pdb
# ...
def application_setup(arg):
# ...
The above will insert a breakpoint in the current stack frame and allow you to inspect the
application_setup function.
pdb comes with a nice set of features so if you're interested in using it go have a look at the official documentation.
Other Debugging Options
Debugging using
pdb is great because they're available on all platforms. However, we realize you might have your own debugging process. We encourage you to use the tools that best fit your needs and we are available to help get you set up if needed.

An Overture to the Anthropocene: Enhanced Orbital Modulation of the Tropical Monsoon by CO2 at the Dawn of the Dinosaurs
Abstract: Global climate models of increasing atmospheric CO2 predict a strengthened hydrological cycle coupled with warming, and amplification of the effects of astronomically-paced precipitation cycles. High-CO2 warm intervals during the hothouse Mesozoic world should display these effects and be analogues to our future greenhouse world. To test this hypothesis, I present Late Triassic and Early Jurassic (232-200 million years ago) lithological, plant structural forms, carbon isotope ratios, the soil carbonate proxy for atmospheric CO2, and leaf wax n-alkane hydrogen isotope ratios from both marine and non-marine records in eastern North America, Peru, and England, with an emphasis on the end-Triassic mass extinction, the modulation of the tropical monsoon, and the rise of dinosaurs.Leave a reply →

App of the Week: Megapolis
Dream as big as a skyscraper, or simply build it yourself! The high-rising popularity of the game Megapolis will put you in control of the blueprint as you design your dream cityscape.
To make it big, you'll have to start small. Begin the game by building residential and commercial areas and generating revenue, and then expand your construction across a blank canvas of land. The strategy for this game is to build a well-resourced, beautiful city with a happy population and not run out of funds fast. Rolling out businesses like restaurants, movie theaters and bowling allies bring population, but also get taxed on a regular basis, so you'll need to plan ahead financially. Energy levels are critical to power your towers, so take the time to consider the right amount electricity resources to keep your sites running smoothly.
While you're waiting for construction to complete, accomplish quests and other tasks that add rewards and help you progress faster. Accrue megabucks to purchase materials and continue the expansion of your city into a megalopolitan. Megapolis is not just about building a pretty city; it's about making it fully functional and connected which makes the game a lot of fun!
App name: Megapolis
Price: Free
- Manage and build your own city! Design and develop primary infrastructure such as airports, railroads, power plants, and residential and commercial areas.
- Trade materials and make friends with your neighbors. Challenge friends to building successful cities nearby.
- Features realistic 3D graphics and world famous architecture.
- More than 500 buildings and sites and hundreds of construction materials.
- Expand your city across land and sea with challenging tasks and rewards for success.

The construction industry, although innovative and professional, has a history of delays and over-budget projects. However, its reputation for being inefficient may be changing thanks to digitalization.
"Digitalization will enable us to take lean construction to a new level in all parts of a construction project, from architect to maintenance, not just in parts of the process,"says Kajsa Simu, Lean Manager at NCC, one of Sweden's biggest construction companies, and researcher at Luleå University of Technology.
Speaking at TECHNIA's seminar on digitalization in construction, Simu said, "Our industry is fragmented, with many players working in silos, sub-optimizing and looking shortsightedly to their own gains.
"Lean construction is an operations strategy. For it to work, everyone taking part in the building process must have the customers' satisfaction as their goal," she said.
Lean manufacturing was invented by carmaker Toyota as a way to increase quality while lowering costs. Methods include waste minimization, continuous improvement, flexibility, production flow, and visual control. All kinds of industries use lean methods, but the construction industry lags behind.
"Visual control over the process is extremely important. Carmakers can overview the whole production flow. In construction, many specialists take part in different stages of the production, and the fragmentation obstructs the visual control," says Simu.
"You can get a virtual view of the product and the whole process. All stakeholders can have access to it. You can simulate alternatives and find the best way to do the job from beginning to end."
NCC aims to improve their lean construction, and digitalization is now a top priority, with a special focus on information structures and models that facilitate communication between all involved.
"Another challenge is, of course, attitudes to change. Lean affects everyone's way of working, and it is necessary to understand that lean means creating value in the process by looking at the flow and not the separate parts of the process," Simu said.

As you might already know, Denison is growing significantly in student population. This year a notably large first-year class has come to The Hill, but what you may not know is that the transfer student class size has also increased- increased so much that Housing & Operations has been forced to place roughly 21% of the entering Fall 2018 class in the same room together over at Huffman Hall — where its inhabitants (myself included) refer to it as the "Huffman Orphanage" because it looks similar to an actual orphanage: a single converted room with five students living inside of it. I have been here for one semester. Here is my story.
My four roommates and I live in a single large room together. Four of us are transfer sophomores/juniors, and one is a senior. Arriving to Denison for Aug-O was the best part. According to the website, all rooms in Huffman Hall were recently renovated with new furniture and flooring, and I was pumped to move into a nice room at my new university. When I walked into Huffman with bags in hand last August, however, I was quite surprised to find myself in a single shabby room with 6 beds inside it. Oh, I forgot to mention — our room was actually listed as a six-person room. Yeah, that's right: six boys in one room together. While luckily only four of us moved in at that time, the later addition of our fifth roommate prompted us to speak with Housing & Operations. With some outside help, we convinced them to whittle it down to a maximum of five occupants: an example of Housing & Operation's abundant generosity.
So five boys living in a room together… yeah it's a time. The room itself is pretty terrible: the heat never stops, we don't have our own bathroom, and it took months before we received access to cable. Oh, and we wake each other up ALL THE TIME. It's crazy when you think about it — from having only 1 roommate last year, the opportunities to disrupt my sleep now have been multiplied by four. And my bed is next to the door, so I hear its loud slamming every time someone closes it. But there is also a compromise here. Although my bed is near this loud door, I face away from it and don't have to deal with the light that floods in when it opens; my roommates on the other side of the room facing me deal with this bright light… it's really a strategy game when you think about it (see the provided diagram).
Don't even get me started on the smell.
In all seriousness, however, I have been extremely lucky. My four roommates and I get along quite well and spend plenty of time outside of the room together. We are all very excited and grateful for our new home at Denison, and I am especially thankful for Housing & Operations' help with fixing/moving furniture and helping us accommodate. If you're ever interested to see what the Huffman Orphanage is like, we offer room tours on Friday and Saturday afternoons from 2-3 pm; they cost $5 and last roughly thirty minutes.

I suppose for me, it makes the birds seem more hopeful, which may or may not be a good thing, I guess it would depend on the viewer's perspective. I'm obviously biased, as this was started back in September for the sake of some sort of venting when my (now non-existent) relationship began fraying for the last time. Which is.. maybe too much to be sharing in a public entry. It was a little awkward to finish this, and it's a little awkward to be posting it, considering that it stemmed from such a negative and personal circumstance (for this reason, I'm going to have to let you wonder about the title).

If you have started developing confusing, hot and cold emotions towards your job, its high time you start to take them seriously.
We spend practically all our lives at our jobs, waking up every morning at 5 am, getting ready, rushing off to the office, spending the entire day there, and returning home at 5/6 PM in the evening, not counting the overtime that has sneakily become part of the daily routine as well.
I bet you don't want to have any confusing and frustrating feelings towards where you spend almost your entire life. Because if anything goes wrong there, that literally implies that your whole life goes down!
There are some obvious signals, RED FLAGS if you may, that we often choose to ignore, that are indicative of the negative influences that our jobs are having on our lives. This denial generates a mixture of feelings, which slowly but steadily evolves into depression. Do not wait until the situation becomes irreversible. Explore these 7 good reasons for leaving a job as well as the #1-best alternative to get back on your feet that works!

|How To Quit Your Job
|#1 Alternative To Get Back On Your Feet After Quitting Your Job
|Read On For More Details
DO WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO UNTIL YOU CAN DO WHAT YOU WANT TO DO — Oprah Winfrey
Our jobs should provide us the comfort in every sense of the word, without compromising one need for the benefit of the other.
The very fact that you are employed already means you are sufficiently qualified and competent. Our working life should provide a favorable environment to enhance complete balance with other aspects of living as well.
And once that balance is tempered with, natural and inevitable physical signs start to manifest. Instead of ignoring them, which is the easiest thing to do, by the way, you had better start to pay attention to these RED FLAGS.
Move on to the next section to see details of the RED FLAGS you should watch out for.
Before I delve into the 7 good reasons for leaving a job, I must applaud you for your courage:
You are about to make a big move, that's why you are reading from me today. Actually very few people get to consider this option, even though almost all employees are secretly wishing they had better jobs. I must admit, it takes someone with "guts", people who "dare", and people who "know what they truly want" out this life. I give you my thumbs up!!
Well then, if you have started experiencing any of the following drift of emotions with regards to your current job, consistently and repeatedly, it's high time you start putting question marks to your current position, or even career if it comes to that.
3.1You Don't Want To Wake Up In The Morning
Reason Explanation
You feel terrified of waking up and going to work. Why? RED FLAG #1. And ironically that is where you will be spending the rest of your day. This should be a call for concern, especially if you observe that it is the same horror movie you act every morning – you just don't want to get out of bed.
We would often look for reasons to justify what we experience. You could start giving excuses for your morning phobia, by saying things like maybe you are tired, or you need a break, or you are sick…it goes on.
Believe me, once you are doing something that makes you happy, no illness will stop you from getting it done, because the strength to do the job comes from your determination, and has got nothing to do with any physical effort.
If just by waking up in the morning is enough to drain your determination to work that day, then something is not right.
If this persists, for only days, talk less of weeks, months, hmmm years, then it's time to leave your job.
3.2Your Holiday Periods Always Appear To Be Very Short
Reason Explanation
You finally convinced yourself of your tiredness, and the need to take a well-deserved break, only for a couple of days. And you know to the best of your ability that you would feel much better after your holiday period.
But the more it draws closer to its end, the more you realize that you need more time. This is RED FLAG #2.
Usually, when you pursue something that you believe in and are very passionate about, there are times when you can put in more than 48 hours without taking any breaks whatsoever, and you wouldn't even feel a thing. You want to get it done at all cost.
This is the type of feeling you should have with your current job. Anything less than that is deception!
Are you unconsciously running away from your job? Then run towards what you want to do, and away from what scares you.
3.3You Haven't Saved Enough Funds!
Reason Explanation
Unless you are on the humanitarian and charity side of the job market, then your work should make you fare better than just surviving!
Now be honest with your self and ask some pertinent questions. How much have you been able to save with your job for the time period that you have maintained your current position? Are you able to set aside a tiny portion of your salary, without it being considered as a thorn in your flesh?
If you have not been able to create a savings account, then know that this is RED FLAG #3.
Of course, the mind will trick us and give us excuses, saying things such as we are responsible for not being able to save, or that we will start saving the following month.
If you barely struggle to save with your job, this is a big problem. We all know the importance of setting aside funds, but when you realize that your life becomes even harder after saving periodically, then there is no need sticking around such a job.
By all means, look for better options.
3.4You Depend On Bank Overdraft For A Leaving!
Reason Explanation
I've personally encountered some people, who claimed to be working in multinational companies but ironically had to live on bank overdrafts every single month.
This never stopped to baffle me. Not only is it insanely expensive, but that system is also very unpredictable! There were actually times when it would take up to 2 weeks into the overdraft months before the funds were actually approved. Only God knew what games such people played within those two weeks to survive.
If you find yourself following this way of lifestyle, RED FLAG #4.
You should not even consider overdraft if your pay is good. You don't need to be a millionaire to live comfortably with your job, but if it brings you down to the level of a beggar, isn't this enough reason to think twice when you return to the comfort of your quiet bedroom at night? The more you continue to deny and resist the reality and truth, the more you plunge deep into frustration in the long run.
Reconsider the reasons why you take overdrafts, and either cut down on your spendings, or look for better alternatives to make you live the lifestyle you so desire.
3.5Have You Visualized What Your Retirement Would Look Like If You Maintained Your Current Position For 20 More Years?!
Reason Explanation
Many people think retirement is a topic reserved only for the elderly. How more wrong could they be? In fact, retirement should be one of the key decision-making factors to be considered before even undertaking your university studies.
So many people get caught in everyday life routines, that they fail to look beyond the horizons, into their very own retirement era. This negligence comes with a heavy price ==> getting to retirement without any preparedness, and an escalated depression rate, leading to a quick death.
See, retirement should be the best period of our lives, but is almost never the case, why? We don't prepare for it.
Can you imagine some people planning to retire, and "look for another job during retirement" just to pay the bills??? Whoever told you that your health conditions would permit you to work, or your strength would still be available?? At retirement, you would be old, weak and tired. All you would have to do is use your generous savings, take care of your self, and travel the world!!
If your current job would not allow you to accumulate enough wealth for your retirement period, RED FLAG #5.
Don't deny this fact. Retirement is inevitable. This should be the most important reason to push you to leave a job immediately!!
Seriously take the timeout, and imagine how you would want to spend your retirement. Come back to your current reality, and examine your earnings and savings now, then determine for yourself whether your current job could help you achieve that retirement lifestyle.
You must have in mind that your retirement is a resting period, so be very ambitious when it comes to setting financial expectations. There is no guarantee your health will be great. A lot of diseases come at old age, and you want to have enough finances at that time just in case.
If your current job is not anywhere near giving you the comfort you would need during retirement, start making plans to quit as soon as possible.
3.6Is Peer Pressure Contributing To You Maintaining Your Current Position?
Reason Explanation
This is one of the main reasons why many people don't get things done when they are supposed to. They bother so much about what "people" would say. Seriously, who cares???? The only thing "people" care about is making sure that you don't push through with the "crazy" things they themselves aren't "crazy" enough to do because they are too weak to try (that crazy stuff needs people with "guts").
I want you to remember one thing here. You came into this life alone, and the people who are trying to influence your decisions now do not have the complete picture of your experiences. Only you do. You put on the shoes, you know exactly where it hurts, not "people".
If your main reason for maintaining your current job position is because you are scared of what "people" would say, RED FLAG #6.
This story is yours, not theirs, and the moment you are able to detach yourself from the influences of the environment, look deep right down, and listen to that quiet voice which is often suppressed by your peers, you will come to the exciting realization that your life is in your hands to do as you wish.
If you have big dreams that your job simply isn't strong enough to support, by all means, take a leap of faith and start moving towards your dreams.
3.7Your Self Confidence Is Diminishing Over Time
Reason Explanation
Some working milieu slowly but steadily drains the life out of you. Not only is the ethics so pathetic, but open discrimination has also become a new norm, and people actually learn how to do this, in order to climb up the ladder.
Let's take this even further. Special employee circles are created, and you are expected to belong to them, failing which you are considered as an outcast, and your chances of climbing up the career ladder start being dependent on other factors that have got absolutely nothing to do with your competence.
An important characteristic of such unethical working environment is the extra amount of overtime you put in, without being compensated for it. You are brainwashed to work even on Sundays, and your family suddenly takes second place in your life.
If you ever find yourself in this type of working environment, RED FLAG #7.
You can continue to convince yourself, that you will be able to deal with such a poisonous workplace because you need the money so badly. Let me guarantee you one thing here: sooner or later, you will eventually break down.
Not only would you feel totally unworthy (which is totally false), but your self-confidence would be significantly impacted negatively, or even completely erased by such a contaminated place of work. I wouldn't trade my dignity for money ever.
When you find yourself in such a situation, don't quit: ==>> RUN AWAY FOR YOUR LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!
If you are ever faced with any of the 7 reasons I've mentioned above, then start preparing to make a move. Let me show you how to do this in the next section.
There is a bit of planning involved when it comes to quitting your job, you don't just quit.
Two groups of people can be identified here: those who have succeeded to save some money, and those who have nothing at all. The strategy to be implemented by these two groups of people will be completely different.
4.1Suggestion For Those With Money In Their Savings Accounts
This is the best situation you want to find yourself in if you intend to quit your job.
a. Here are some of the key advantages:
==> You have the possibility to fire your boss at any time, following your own terms.
==> You can take a break from working and actually spend some time at home, having some rest, fun, before taking off again.
b. So what's my best alternative when you are ready to look for a new job?
Let's get something straight here. You want to get a new job because the current one is not giving you the success you expected. So what are the chances that if you land a new job, doing the same old routine, you would achieve your desired success? I know you really want to make a significant difference, and your best shot would be to try something completely new.
I love this beautiful saying by Thomas Jefferson:
"If you want something you have never had, you must be willing to do something you have never done."——————>Thomas Jefferson.
What new thing could that be? ⚡BE YOUR OWN BOSS BY STARTING YOUR OWN ONLINE BUSINESS⚡
You don't have to wake up very early every day. Follow the tune of your body and work at your best hours. It would be all up to you. We are fortunate today to have millions of opportunities accessible to anyone with the arrival of the internet. You can literally fly with anything online today.
Which online business would be the best to start? THIS IS MY #1 RECOMMENDATION TO START YOUR OWN ONLINE BUSINESS.
4.2Advice To Those Who Don't Have Any Savings.
This is where the majority of people who want to leave their current jobs find themselves. It is completely logical and understandable since the inability to save is one of the main reasons to consider leaving a job.
a. Quitting your job, in this case, would require a lot of discipline on your part:
==> You would have to maintain your current job while searching. All the reasons causing you to leave should now motivate you more than ever, to continue searching until you find what you are looking for.
==> And what type of job will you be looking for? Definitely not the same job you are currently doing, else the same conditions might just continue to apply for as long as you continue to do one and the same thing over and over again.
b. So what's my best alternative for you while you are still working?
START AN ONLINE BUSINESS. Here are some of the KEY advantages:
==> You don't need to attend physical interviews, which can raise a lot of suspicion from your boss
==> Your online business has enormous growth potential since billions of people are connected to the internet every day. Learning how to reach the right people can give you the breakthrough you have been looking for.
==> It is very cheap to properly start an online business. The investment is worth it if you remind yourself of the main reason for starting one in the first place to quit your job.
Manage your job, and your online business together in secret, and before long, you would be planning to fire your boss. Move on to the next section to learn more about the best online business to start.
This method has been around for decades, and it's proving to be the best online money-making method today, and the good news? It's not going anytime soon.
Do you resonate with any of the reasons above? Leave a comment below and let's talk about it.

Polyester Necktie and Pocket Square Set help you save time, and a consistent style makes you look more neat. As long as the polyester tie is matched, it can greatly enhance the fashion taste. It is the first choice for casual and trendy men. It can show your fashion attitude and is also one of the easy to match.
One is the wet wash method. Place the Polyester Necktie and Pocket Square Set on a paper template, scrub with a soft brush or foam dampened with a little diluted detergent, then wipe off the foam with a dry towel and scrub with a clean, damp towel.
