They actually have a fairly comprehensive training program setup through their “University.” They also mix in foreign contractors, usually from China.

My dad cracked three ribs while surfing in his 20s. He caught a wave much larger than normal, fell off his board near the top and landed flat on his back.
My sister actually gave my daughter this book when she was young. I thought it was good stuff.
I almost did before the outage. Their pay was pretty low compared to similar positions at other companies though.
They’re about raising the sarcophagus. Those things can be heavy.
Nope, it was Gmail and I know it’s the correct account because I have other emails regarding that account going back a few years including confirmations and a password reset.
I did check spam at the time. I really tried to give them the benefit of the doubt but all I can figure is my account slipped through some weird crack. It’s likely I never would have even known if it weren’t for my kid asking me one day if we could play together.
I did check that at the time as well. Nothing was there.
Doubt all you like. I checked multiple times after opening a ticket to make sure I hadn’t missed something. I would actually be a lot less annoyed with them if I had.
I did. Unfortunately the chain ended with repeated canned responses to me that the grace period had ended and the only way I could get access again was to repurchase the game.
So did most of my friends, but I checked multiple times and confirmed that I had nothing. I would have been a lot less annoyed with them if I had received an email and missed or ignored it. For whatever reason, the notifications never made it to me.
I’m one of those people. I haven’t played in years. I may never have played again. I only found out because my daughter is now at an age where she asked if we could play together. I received no notice from Microsoft and I don’t do social media so it was a complete surprise to me when I couldn’t log in, then find out through their support that I had lost access to something I had legally paid for.
I worked at a grocery store in 2003 in California for a short time. I joined just after a major strike had ended. As always, the company was pushing for lower wages and benefits, the union wanted higher. They came to an agreement with a two tiered system, tenured employees got to stick with a pay scale and benefits slightly better than what they’d had before.
New employees got fucked.
A couple months in I was promoted to cashier from bagger and got to see the two tiers. I was starting at $18 per hour, the original tier started at more than double that and went up pretty high.
Not really related to your comment, but I’m a little drunk after a rough day and seeing those amounts just really fucking pisses me off. My numbers are not adjusted for inflation and wages have gone down for the job I did in the last 20 years. It’s fucking maddening.

First time I’ve seen something from my home area pop up on Lemmy. CCB is a solid brewery.
This nearly gave me an aneurysm.
Ah shit, serves me right for posting off the cuff…
Though that is also a thing.
They’re fully vertically integrated from the silicone through the compiler, os, and all software running.
“my spoon is too big”
Absolutely. Anansi boys is my personal favorite of his, but I think highly of all his books.
I’d second all three.
Neil Gaiman is absolutely one of my favorite authors and from what I’ve seen, a pretty great human being as well.
You are correct.
For anyone else unaware, the schtick of the account was they’d always rate dogs with ratings of x/10 with x always being greater than 10. It was pretty funny how often people would get upset over this.
