  1. I'd shoot someone who was on my property actively lighting my house on fire, I don't think I'd shoot someone who threatened to burn down my house in the middle of the day on camera.
  2. ok so we're going to glance over the fact that the flag being set on fire is attached to said house while occupied? just trying to follow your logic.
  3. Nah, this whole exercise is focused on retaining the talent and not making a shitty situation worse. A good salesman/originator/account manager with technical experience and good contacts are very rare and are a recruiters wet dream (with the exception of O&G). Once a good employee starts thinking of greener pastures your in trouble. If it was a shitty employee who somehow formed an unbreakable bond with the client, which I’ve come to find out is pretty common, might play it differently.
  4. I like the enthusiasm but I’d like to see if flatty sees it the same way. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  5. https://www.nj.com/camden/2020/09/watch-culprit-caught-on-camera-trying-to-torch-familys-black-lives-matter-flag.html can we count on you to shoot this guy in the gut and watch him bleed out? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  6. My suggestion would be if you have a dedicated, experienced, capable account manager that you would like to retain - eat the loss and trust that the account manager is capable of utilizing the discount for future gains. Never been a fan of micromanaging. Otherwise you run the risk of losing a big client, losing a good employee with a significant amount of institutional knowledge to a competitor, and having to retrain a new employee who has a 75%+ chance of leaving you in less than two years. All while the whole market is upside down due to COVID. Yikes. Other than that, fuck you pay me. Clients rarely remember negative shit as long as you do good work, employees on the other hand - remember that time you took food out of their mouth. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  7. just wanted to say its been dope havin’ another brotha around these parts. especially when brothahorn starts talkin’ his bullshit.

  9. SNOW is officially available to retail at $276/share.
  10. Yup. Just coming to say this. It’s not even retail yet... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  11. Buffet: buys SNOW at $80 pre ipo IPO goes live at $120 Closes around $140-$160 Buffet: "Well sheesh people getting greedy, I'll be fearful. Plus, I'm already up 50%+ and by my rules I'll cash out now, don't want to get slaughtered. " but in all seriousness, the amount of hype for this IPO is significant - Buffet, Salesforce, JPM, GS, Ackman. ~$35 billion valuations mean nothing in this day and age. I’m going to take a chunk and keep some powder dry for dollar cost averaging but our mini-correction this past month looks behind us and I see this as a huge momentum stock right out of the gate. rightly so tho, not a lot of companies can take on AWS-dominated space and live to tell the tale.
  12. “Statistics from 1998 show that there were wide racial disparities in arrests, prosecutions, sentencing and deaths. African-American drug users made up for 35% of drug arrests, 55% of convictions, and 74% of people sent to prison for drug possession crimes. Nationwide African-Americans were sent to state prisons for drug offenses 13 times more often than other races, even though they only supposedly comprised 13% of regular drug users.” “Guns don’t kill people, people kill people” “The WOD doesn’t oppress black people, piece of shit cops who are poorly educated, poorly emotionally equipped, do not like their authority questioned, and/or believe they were predestined by god to enforce racial hierarchy oppress black people.” swap out guns any other weapon and it holds true. swap out the WOD for any other legislation aimed at instilling “law and order”, and guess what? The WOD is whatever the cops say it is as they have all the discretion in the world and damn near zero accountability. The fact that Reagan literally sold drugs to black people while passing the Anti-Drug Abuse Act should further prove that the WOD was nothing more than a tool to further oppress black people at the hands of the police. The WOD, Poll Tax, Literacy Tests and other Jim Crow bullshit are just iterations of the same tool. Law enforcement and their discretion.
  13. I think the opium and rice farmers in Afghanistan and Vietnam would like a word. Granted, I don’t think we stand a chance if the gov decides to go scorched earth on us but we’ve got a solid mutually assured destruction thing going on right now.
  14. rewatching Reno 911, the dean is a reoccurring character that shines.
  15. I think it's more like 38% to 40%. I think Biden wins the popular vote by ~5-6M but Trump flips MN and holds onto FL, PA, and NC for the win. AZ goes Blue and NV stays Blue. Not sure if that gets him to 270 but I'm like 70% certain Trump wins. I truly and honestly believe Trump wins because (a) every single fucker I personally know who voted for him in 2016 will do so again in 2020 and (b) the polling stations and mail-in ballot fuckery is pretty widespread (every single state with an R legislature and/or R governor has literally zero oversight) and the dems have provided a pretty lackluster response on that front. #teambrisket I will say the military comments and woodward tapes brought down my confidence level from 75% to 70% so we got that goin for us.
  16. y’all got plenty of the anti-BLM/pro-police videos, I don’t see you calling out [mention]MillerEP [/mention]as a troll...

  17. I know it may or may not it your narrative, but if posting a video with a dude accosting diners on a dedicated thread along with some light commentary constitutes trolling on surly, I don’t want to be right. just neg/ignore me and move the fuck on.
  18. yeah I hate getting harassed and ridiculed while I’m eating a meal too.
  19. OKC was a bad matchup. Lakers without Avery Bradley don’t have the defensive bodies to throw at Harden and Westbrook 24/7. Rondo? Kuzma? JR? Waiters? Danny Green? LBJ and AD have to carry the offensive load so they aren’t really reliable. PJ Tucker needs to spend some time brushing up his corner threes. It’s been a rough couple games. Covington and Jeff Green are pretty impressive. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  21. yeah they were clearly worried about frostbite and his well-being when they put a blanket on him (which I bet every single police car is equipped with, since you know, it's fucking Rochester, NY in early March) as they pushed his face into the concrete. plus the paramedics literally showed up right as he went brain dead. y'all wanna believe that most cops aren't like this but I bet you 75%+ of the cops in any precinct would have done the exact same shit. and that's the fucking heart of this issue. they literally fucking laughed about anal probing a dead black man they killed just moments before. ALL OF THEM.
  22. nonviolent, unarmed, naked, cuffed, spit-hooded. you wait till the fucking paramedics show up.
