I dont understand why she engaged at all or what was to gain by sharing she was lesbian.

The cope is strong with these chuds. Convinced that their virginal bodies are by choice. One handy away from dropping all pretense and swimming in soy.

That is mostly my experience. I found a few or that meta is not ine of the top investments. Fidelity has a few. When I get home I may post them.

Gen-x here. It was the norm to have a beautiful full or trimmed bush. In my mind, Vivid entertainment started showcasing more shaved women. Men didnt happen until almost a decade later.

- Comment on A majority of migrant workers employed with H-1B visas are paid below-median wages: Large tech firms, including Amazon, Google, and Microsoft, use visa program to underpay workers 4 months ago:
When I outsourced several departments to HCL. Managed that contract for 5 years. Spent lots of time hobnobbing with the Sr. Leadership of both companies and their H1B transplants. I’ve worked in medical, education, and banking, doing the same thing, and the story has been the same each time. The management and sales staff jet around in their leased Teslas. The staff they bring in were generally good people but almost always lacking the actual skills to replace the workers that we let go. Worked for a US based outsourcer also and pretty much the same. Sales made promises that we knew we could’t deliver. There are probably exceptions out there, but it’s not the norm. HCL was the worst, but Infosys, Accenture… each one I have worked with has been the same. Now, there might be other H1B visas that don’t come in this way… but it was NEVER about not being able to find the right local talent.

Yeah… I couldn’t care less. They are the modern-day Union busting scabs who swoop in when CEOs need to cut budgets. I would love to see the number of H1B visa holders who drive tesla. I’ll tell you right now it’s a huge portion of them. The overseas company usually foots the bill for housing, and most of the money is sent to where it is NOT below median wage. The whole reason that CFO went down this road was to save money and pay them less. The company pays the outsourcer for contracted work and has 0 insight into how much of that makes it to the H1B visa holder. Everyone is in the loop and knows exactly what they are doing.
- Comment on *Everyone liked that* 5 months ago:
Insurance companies do not offer a service. There is no value other than to share holders. I had to explain to my daughter that it is literally illegal for a CEO to do the right thing if it will cost shareholders. They leach profits by being an unnecessary middleman and finding every loophole they can so they don’t have to actually do the thing they say they exist for.

Outsourced IT and not all Apps were AD authenticated is my guess. Probably a request sitting in a queue waiting for SLA.
