    The one by Barclays (in NYC) has the same thing! It's the best self-checkout experience I've had.

    This is so good! When I was a kid I wanted to make a billion dollars so I could buy the Philadelphia Eagles and guide them to their first Super Bowl victory. Now I want to make a b…

    I'm sorry to hear about your experience. Anecdata, but I interviewed for a marketing role at a 10-person startup in 2013. I asked questions #1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 12, 13, 15, 16,…

    I do B2B sales (specifically, customer support for consumer-facing businesses), and I'd pay ~$1,000/mo for a service that solves this problem: Which warm intros should I ask for? T…

    Just own it, dude - I knew someone who'd pronounce "Puerto Rico" the "authentic" way and make you feel like the philistine if you dared correct her

    In a judgment free way - my dad's long-term business partner was overweight. Died super young, in his mid-60s. It was heartbreaking for everyone involved, and I would not wish it u…
