Non-political things that make you say...WTF?!?! (Welcome To Florida!) **NOT CV RELATED** NO TALKY!

Hard to see in pic, but this fool had decal on driver door that says Lift Kit

 

Try being self employed. I have for many years. It's good and it's bad. Just like any other job, only different.

They look like able bodied young men in an economy where the unemployment rate is 3.9%. I doubt they have any sense of shame

 

There is an Amazon fulfilment center that is a 5 min walk from that location, they are always hiring.

The problem with blue-collar work is the toll it takes on your body. I did one year of college before deciding it wasn't for me. A few years of odd jobs and then I landed a driving job with UPS. Awesome job, good pay, good benefits, etc. 28 years later, mid 50's, my body is telling me it's time to rest. UPS is now a publicly owned company and slave to the shareholders so the workload is always increasing. I'm at a place where there is light at the end of the tunnel so I know I can reach 30 years and get my full pension. Many more of my fellow co-workers started later in life and I doubt they will be able to last 30 years.

 

I am a big fan of nitro. When the Topeka ks race track opened in..89? I was one of the 1st ones there, on Friday qualifying. And saw Shirley Muldowney run the 1st ever sub 4 second run. I haven't been in at least 10 years, coz lots of people. LOTS. And idiots. New track owner fked up parking so bad we had to park a mile away.But if you are a fan of nitro there is nothing like it if you are not there in person. One time, just do it. I just watch it on the TV now, surround sound! NHRA!!

Analog clocks soon to go the way of the slide rule?

British schools are removing analog clocks from classrooms because kids can't read them

Schools in the United Kingdom are beginning to remove analog clocks from the classroom — because students are complaining that they can’t read them, reports say.

Officials have begun replacing the traditional clocks with digital ones as children have been unable to tell the correct time on analog clocks, The Telegraph reports.

“The current generation aren’t as good at reading the traditional clock face as older generations,” Malcolm Trobe, deputy general secretary at the Association of School and College Leaders in England, told the publication. “Nearly everything they’ve got is digital so youngsters are just exposed to time being given digitally everywhere.”

According to a report from the Times Educational Supplement, — a weekly newspaper for teachers in the U.K. — one educator said during a conference in London that many high schoolers were only able to tell the time on digital devices.
“It is amazing the number of students I am coming across in year 10, 11 and in sixth form who do not know how to tell the time,” she began. “We live in a world where everything is digital. We are moving towards a digital age and they do not necessarily have analogue watches anymore and they have mobile phones with the time on.”

Teachers in the U.K. wrote about the situation on social media, with a “Mrs Keenan” tweeting that digital clocks had been installed in an exam hall. Another, Nicola Towle, wrote in a tweet, according to the BBC: “Our school has replaced the analogue clock with a digital one in the hall for exams because pupils couldn’t use it to tell the time.”

The situation isn’t only present in the U.K., though.

A 2017 survey in Oklahoma City found that only 1-in-10 children in the city between the ages of 6-12 owned a watch. Of that number, only 1-in-5 knew how to read the analog watches, according to KFOR.

“I think the exposure to technology, everyone’s so used to seeing digital,” Caitlin Carnes, of the Boys & Girls Club at Santa Fe South Elementary, told the site. “They all have cell phones and tablets so they don’t have to look at a clock very often that’s analog.”

Late-night host Jimmy Kimmel also recently proved that kids could not read analog clocks in a hilarious sketch.​

 

If they don't know something, remove it from existence? It's their job to teach them about these things...
