There is a push to use them to store wind/solar energy to level out spikes/disruptions to the grid. A big challenge had been quantifying the actual capacity of the battery. A battey that may only hold 50% charge from when it was created, is still useful in harvesting energy that would have gone wasted.
The amount of trailer inspections before was sketchy and inadequate.
at least you can spend money. Our IT has been pushing for load of fixes as the system is just a series of bandaids for the last couple years. When it finally sank in this wouldn’t be a couple weeks, the owner was like ok lets go forward with some of these, and I guess whats come down the grapevine the cost is now…
New York and New Jersey are not New England.
The thing that deeply pissed of most of the employees, in March, 1/3 of the employees are engineers doing CAD work, none of which had to be in the office, and the owner was throwing a pissyfit. I can see th e desire to make sure your employees aren’t slacking off, but in the US its taken to absurd.

And bring your paperwork!
I’m always intrigued by what folks consider paycheck to paycheck. I had an uncle making nearly 200k, and when 2009hit and he had to “make do” with 100k was caught very off guard.
In the Kingdom of Ice. If you ever feel lonely, at least you’re not trapped in the Artic.
people on this site have unrealisitic opinions on what was traded in. My cousin worked at dealership at the time and some were “how did that drive here” and “do we need a hazmat suit for the tech”.
And that is if there is no uptick in cases.
For highly infectious disease, you need 50-75% of the population to be immune. Even if the 1.3mil is 1/10 the real number that is nowhere near enough.
For domestic flights the first/business account for a much smaller amount of revenue. As most don’t want to spend that much. Additionally domestically, Airlines used to give out 1/2 of those seats as a perk to frequent fliers.
