Game Thread 2020 Debate Part 3 - Sept 12

Of coarse, Biden could provide some entertainment too. It would be good to hear him expound on taking Trump out behind the woodshed in some debate. Yeah, that might be a highlight.

 

lol, as if this president follows the constitution. All Warren would have to do is execute an executive order or call it a national emergency right?

 

Oh come on, what's more important, stupid work or important bullshitting in here?

 

I'm supposed to be writing documentation today and tomorrow, documentation writing is boring lol.

 

I use to like writing that kind of stuff.
Here's a hint:
Good, clear, concise writing will win you good raises especially for those who know technical writing and good grammar.
I use to have to write these weekly reports on engineering problems I was working on. My boss told us to spend 15 minutes a week or less in writing these reports. I got average raises. Then, I began spending two to three hours writing my reports. The reports got circulated among different managers and different engineering groups. A side benefit, arguably the main benefit was that it gave me the opportunity to think more deeply about each problem and I would either solve the problem right there or get a good start on a solution. Also, other people would call me with helpful suggestions. The result? Great raises and lots of work accomplished, some of it quite difficult. What a feeling of satisfaction.
So, I guess I'm suggesting that you pour yourself into your work and put this aside, at least for the time being.
Now, get out there and make money so you can support my social security and private and government pensions, not to mention boosting my stock investments.

 

The money isn't that interesting to me because I enjoy the work (except this part I guess heh) as long as my wife and kids are ok and fed clothed, etc I'm good. But, this time, I'll do it for you!

For the record sometimes writing documentation is a joy, I've been kind of dreading this particular part because I have a very limited amount of space that I need to shove a lot of information into and trying to make it coherent but contrite poses an interesting challenge. I'll go dig into for your financial gain! heh.

 

You do not know boredom in writing until you've written a 50 page land use application addressing how your project complies with each and every land use regulation and comprehensive plan policy that could remotely be applicable to it.

 

I'm nearing retirement. I may try that on one of my applications just to see if anyone is actually paying attention.

 

It's different when you're getting paid to do it.

 

Not following you. I'm a consultant & I get paid for my work.

 

Who the hell is this Tom Steyer jackass and why is he in the race? I refuse to believe this person is polling and actually has individual donors contributing to his invisible campaign. There is no way average people are supporting this clown, seems really strange to me he just pops up and is making all the debate requirements.

 

There you go. Do a good job and the boss will notice which means nice raises. There's the incentive. Getting a good raise is a very very nice feeling.

 

I’m self-employed so I give myself “raises” whenever the market will bear it. It’s bearing it pretty well right now.

 

Lanny, theres a long way to go before the primaries and because someone is ahead now, historically hasn't produced many race over lets vote.
I do see a dark horse that can make it much more competitive.

 

I guess, but so does the money other candidates get from individual donors. I’ve never even seen a Tom Steyer ad, but have seen them for most other candidates. It just seems off to me.

 

I was a little wrong about Mayor Pete, it looks like he's gained just enough support to qualify as a dark horse. Be still, my beating heart. However, realistically, it's either Biden or Warren. All three are great choices to me.
