I live in Scotland, after making that comment wrote it out both ways and asked a coworker which he thought looked more right..... forgetting he's dyslexic. So that was a fun lunch conversation.
See, I know it's always been "toonies" but I've always struggled with why they didn't go for twonies...
It's the same trouble all "for Linux" mobile products seem to have. Underpowered, outdated and massively overpriced tech, they never seem to be actually suitable for modern daily driving. I know they're all "niche" products, and it's hard to charge a reasonable price for low manufacturing run stuff. I had a look at the pictures and the HPad6, and if it's not literally the same item (different screen aside) I'll eat my grungy work boot. I get needing to turn a profit, but $733 plus taxes/shipping/etc for something that they're absolutely getting for less than the $200 you'd pay for a single unit off AliExpress, badging inclusive. They'll be ordering in bulk, and getting a healthy discount.
Actually, I was nosing around, and it looks like the HPad6 is probably a rebranded Alldocube iplay 60 pro, which is about £50ish if you buy 100. Don't really want to jump to conclusions and blow things out of proportion...buuuuuut... I've got all these pitchforks and torches...and it'd be a pain to return them....
Edit: I made an error, the Alldocube that's £50ish for 100 is the lower spec one, for same spec as the one in the article it's actually around £80-130 on orders of >1000 units
Wouldn't hold my breath...not cause it might not happen, but because it's certainly going to be longer than you can hold it, and I would worry about you if you tried.
Managers who's style is "strictly control every facet in your charges' day" shouldn't be managers.
Also....I don't get to work from home, so no other Stone Mason should! Is what I'd say if I wasn't actively working on my house evenings and weekends....
also when you inevitably lose someone important to the project (be it obligations or drama), you have replacements ready and dont have the whole project fall over because one person was too important
This is a lesson loads of actual businesses need to learn. Put all your proverbial eggs into one overworked, underpaid basket, and when they inevitably get burnt out or get a better offer and leave, you're up shit creek without the knowledge that kept everything ticking over.
Or being on side with those that do.
No he is, just the public he serves isn't the Canadian people...or at least not 99.99% of them...
If only there were a party besides the CPC and LPC that were pro-worker....
Looks like over the glove, as it comes round the other side of the net it looks like it's coming on a downward angle.
