From my experience, people in the corporate world tend to be all that and also low on IQ. I see no reason to commit before you get to know your supervisor/boss well.

Many of you work for peanuts. How do you rationalize that? What do you do to be able to look into the mirror every morning? Is an hour of your life really worth 50 bucks? Not tryin…

They don't even work in Chrome with Silverlight installed. Microsoft is a silly, mediocre company.

And there is zero effort put into figuring out a better system, since those in position of wealth and power don't have an incentive to change what feeds them. With less than 5% peo…
