Ever wonder why the US university system is so entrenched in the selling of degrees to anyone that shows up:

Talk about an enormous business for doing nothing. Not that the student in question here did nothing. Only pointing out the scale of extra-national education and its impact on the economy. Rich, foreign students are big money... as long as they don't fail out.
I always wondered why IUP has such a large amount of foreign students. I couldn't believe people's dream was to go to school in America at a small state school in Western Pennsylvania.

I put the sim card in another phone (had an old android sitting around) so I was able to get 2FA notifications and get the phone past the iCloud loop. It still wouldn't restore from backup, but I was finally able to set it up as a new phone. I have now added a second phone to the 2FA list
Great!

Been really angry the last few days. No reason for it either.
I despise being a stupid jumped up poorly evolved monkey some days.

Some times you gotta beat the shit out of someone to brighten your day.

Ahhh fond memories from my youth. Can't afford to break my hands again though, they're already creaky and arthritic.

Guess it's time for some lunch and a bit of laundry... Man I wished they would wash themselves....
You wash your lunch with your laundry or separately?
Well,..It depends on the colors. I separate colors.

OMG I've become a millenial! - I'm listening Youtube vids while working...
I think that most people would say "How can you be a millennial if you are working?"
Though on that point I would say whose fault is it that the millennial generation is like this enough to be stereotyped? The parents and society their parents created.
I'm technically a millennial (though an early one) and I've had a job since I was 14... I know plenty of people both old and young to work the system (welfare etc) just so they don't have to work. It's not restricted to a generation. It's a lazy society.

I am 100% in agreement with that. There are plenty of people that work the system at any age.

I'm 29 ( is that a millennial?) And I've worked since about 6th grade. I mowed lawns as a kid. I made a decent amount doing it.
My senior year of college I had 20 credits and worked 40 hours a week. I pretty much worked all through college.

Seriously why should you work?
Scott's example of BK only having employees more than 4 or 5 was as a form of welfare. He claimed that he could let those people stay home, not work, yet collect the same pay and the company would be better off because those left behind aren't being hindered by those who would not be gone.
