Re: I am a degenerate piece of *%#%...

The kid isn't dead, it just has cancer, but you're right that it's just like saying "Look at the black guy" or "look at the fat woman". Does that really justify all these people threatening to beat him up? You can't control what people think nor what they say, and you certainly can't physically beat someone for it. What he claims to have said wasn't nice, but it isn't as horrible as everyone makes it out ...

Adios. I can't say I'll miss talking to someone as violent and angry as you are.

Apparently I don't understand, but I still think you're too sensitive. It really is no worse than "look at that ladys ugly track suit" or "look at the fat kid." Sure, neither of them are nice but your responses to him saying it are even worse. You can't beat up someone because you don't like what they say, and what he said wasn't anywhere near harassment nor assault.

I understand that you don't want it, but you also have to understand that you're gonna get it. Believe me, I got it and still get it. You've just gotta embrace it and celebrate it, especially if you're sick. We all go out somebody and you've gotta enjoy it while you've got it.

Exactly where was he making fun of the kid, and where did he announce it to everyone? He said he told his staff to "Peep the kid with cancer", he didn't say, "Peep the kid with cancer, ha ha ha ha ha ha." All he did was draw attention to the kid, which maybe the kid didn't want (or maybe the kid did, we'll never know). He didn't bash the kid or debase or downplay his condition. ...

I still don't see why everyone's so pissed off at him for saying this. What's wrong with saying, "Look at the kid with cancer"? It's really no worse than when we tell our co-workers to check out someone who's hot or wearing an ugly sweater. I'm sure people have said "Hey, look at the freakishly tall guy" about me and I really don't care. Is it because it's cancer and because he may die?

I'm fairly sure threaded messaging refers to a "chat style" of messaging. You'll see your previous messages as well as your partners messages while you're typing a message.

I'm pretty sure that union dues are maxed out at one hour of your wages per month. Unions are part of the reason GM and Ford are failing, and they need to declare bankruptcy so they can restructure and ditch the unions.

Talk to you HR department. You should be allowed to create a work approved fake name to give to people. It's kind of like when you call India and talk to Steve.

It's a nationwide indirect with over 300 stores, so the union would definitely stick but the employees are too scared to start one. Believe me, the employers do a good job at keeping people down. I do recognize the damage unions cause (just look at GM!), but I still contend its the fault of that company for there ever being a Union. If a company fails because of a union, I wouldn't waste a second feeling sorry for ...

I work for a non-union company that frankly needs one. Upper management doesn't give a crap about their employees other than how they can get the most out of you for the least, not what you deserve. There's no representation, just last year middle management sat down with upper management to discuss wages and benefits, to which the owner replied no with no explanation. They're concerned only with money, not with ethics and frequently reward misbehavior ...

Unions are only formed when the employees get too sick of the abuse of their employers and decide not to stand for it anymore. While your union may not do much now, they likely did quite a lot when they were first formed. The only person you can blame for a union is the company that caused it's formation, and that company is now getting exactly the kind of grief they deserve.

Talk to your company, I'm sure they have lawyers who can draft one. It's not something we use for every activation, but if they get an extra discount it's mandatory.

For new activations we can usually match any deal. Wirefly activations require adding certain features to their account, and if they change their account for any reason (even a plan change) in the first six months they charge them for it. We have a similar form which we give them, and if they remove any of the features or change the plans we charge their credit card for the full price of the equipment. As far as your ...

I was refering to software development for applications that run on the iphone. If other companies like the cell phone carriers began to pay as much or more than apple currently does, it would certainly draw developers away from the iphone platform.

I really dont see anything special about the Safari browser on the iPhone. If you're commenting on the fact that it uses wifi, that's also something which other phones do. The App store is unique in it's business model, not in it's function. Many carriers have one button shopping from their device to purchase anything, however Apple is paying developers a higher dividend of sales than anyone has ever done before. This is leading to developers wanting ...

It'll conflict with your PDA package unfortunately. Retention might have something, but there's nothing in our regular sales system because they want us to upsell.

It doesn't require it, but if you want it unlimited internet is only $15 a month. It's a 3G phone, so you should go for unlimited or nothing at all.

Is this why you got the pricing of the new Blackberry Storm so completely wrong that it ended up being twice what you claimed it would be, or is that because of your source of info in Verizon?

Actually you don't even begin to see trends until your survey size is near 1%. That means Consumer Reports would need an additional 2,220,000 responses before it's even considered academically substantial. They don't just do this will cell phone related crap, they do it with every product they "review". It's a sub-standard magazine with a subscriber base dredged from the bottom of the barrel. Consider the numbers again. They would need to survey 2,270,000 people just ...

The ratings were based on 51,740 responses from ConsumerReports.org subscribers surveyed in September 2008. I love their surveys. The top four cellphone carriers have over 227 million customers alone. If you use their stats Consumer Reports used a sample size of 0.02%. They really are a freaking joke, and if you subscribe to Consumer Reports you're ...

My customer was only about a grand. He'd bought an iPhone for his number and wanted to put it on his wife's number. I told him about having to get the feature put on his wife's number and the whole spiel. He got pissed and didn't like my answer, but he was very nice to me the next month when his bill was so high.
