Because it was an investigation and the conclusion is always going to be prosecutable or not. Courts don’t proclaim people innocent, they just say “not guilty” of the charges. The court of public opinion has completely different rules.

Lol, I thought about that but figuring out how to optimize your life is quite different from figuring out how to make others pay for you.

Yes I did, and if everyone did this, we’d be waiting forever in line at the gate instead of boarding the plane. In a nutshell, it’s selfish behavior and gaming the system.

Why not just show up to the airport a bit early and check your fucking bags instead of making the system work harder just for you. Checking at the gate takes people away from other jobs and can cause delays while boarding.

Let’s see, a crew experiences a problem that a passenger-pilot fixes for them and they don’t say anything about it after landing? They might as well claim responsibility for the next crew crashing. Everyone wants to blame Boeing but I wouldn’t trust those flight crews to fly me anywhere in any plane.

While I understand there are medical reconstructive cases, the majority of implants are cosmetic.  Going under a knife to put a foreign object in your body is nuts.

That’s completely unrealistic. The whole idea of student loans is the govt effectively co-signs for you. You’re advocating for a government guaranteed loan (which lenders are obviously fine with) for people with no credit and no source of income that can then be discharged in bankruptcy? You might as well just give…

Congrats!  I think the lesson is don’t borrow money if you don’t have a realistic plan to pay it back and don’t expect college to magically make you successful.

An FSA plan can bite both ways.

The other day I watch a young couple customer down at a table, looking only at their phones, they look up briefly to order, meal comes and they each take pictures of the food then back to their phones.

Just goes to show that politics and money are far more important to governments than the health of their populace.

What you’re seeing is an economy that’s changing. While I do think some of Trumps ideas (like the border wall) are stupid, I also see the China trade talks as benefitting everyone (should they actually eliminate tariffs). The other thing is the economic numbers (employment, construction, optimism) are all at or near…

I’m more inclined to believe the box office take has a lot more to do with the competition.  As a MCU fan I was underwhelmed by Cpt. Marvel although I love Brie Larsen.

Depends on the review. I find it helpful to read reviews that have detail and depth.  The ones where the business responds and attempts to fix the issue tells you they take customer service seriously.

Good riddance, I say!

I’ve noticed that some MCU movies don’t resonate with me and get worse on subsequent viewings. Others, like Infinity War got better.  Ultimately there needs to be a reason for the film to exist other than action sequences and ridiculous plot lines.

True, small changes are easier to get people on board with. For instance, Obamacare enabled lots of formerly uninsurable folks to get coverage but if it had tried to nationalize healthcare and get rid of health insurance completely, it would have failed miserably. Medicare for all is probably a good place to start…

The airlines (and their lawyers) have figured out its better to inconvenience one person (plus a baby) than risk a major problem. If the condition had been contagious and someone else got infected then AA would have been fucked. It sucks for the woman but I can see how this shitty customer service is calculated.

Don’t get upset. The only thing you can do is pay the bill, stiff the tip, put a negative yelp review and tell your friends to avoid the place.  If that’s their attitude I can’t imagine the shit that probably goes on in the kitchen.

What about “the customer is always right”? I think most smart businesses will take the hit (at least once) just to not fuck up their good will. One lost customer can mean another 5 never customers.
