It was free. It’s a marketing stunt. People were selected to put their resume on a box and say which offices they wanted it to go to. Pizza Hut then sent them free pizza with the resume on it. It’s all in the article.

Low income is also better in uncertain budget times as Title 1 funds make sure they have both fed and state funds. Here in Cali our property taxes mean that the schools in poor areas are the most well funded and the schools in rich older areas are the least well funded. Just with variations on what “rich” means here too.

If you have a state pension system too don’t forget to look into how that works for your district. There are some in my area that actually don’t pay the full percentage so teachers have a worse retirement than if they went to a different district with slightly less pay. So it’s all about the long game.

Then your union is negotiating it if they’re of any value. All the teachers unions around me negotiated 14-25% raises over 3 years over the last few years. If you’re a younger teacher you should look to job hop though. If you’re tenured you’re sorta stuck. In my area there’s three districts of the like 40~ I always push people that are new to end up in as once tenured in them you’ll earn well over 6 figures, even at the elementary level.

Are we getting back to the OG Android dessert names?

Tesla also lost a ton of the initial talent that made the model S and X such incredible feats of technology. IMO, if I buy and electric car here in the states it’s a Lucid, and if I get an SUV it’s a Rivian.

I drive a Ram 2500… so I have like the worst LED lights for other people. What I don’t get is why they don’t automatically dim as I slow down. It’s now like your headlights are needed to see as far down the road when I’m doing 0mph. Just keep them at the minimum and increase brightness as I drive, and if it detects another car in front of me just reduce light output while drive to -10% from normal.

You bring up a great point. Does Donald have a certificate showing he doesn’t have donkey brains?

It’s all his supporters up in the hills that catch on fire anyways. California had more people vote for Donald Trump than anywhere else. Every time he threatens them and they clap I have to wonder if they realize they’re hurting themselves in their own confusion. (Short answer, they don’t)
