Ever had a boss...

This is a small business and he's been a successful business man since '89, but I have no idea how. He preaches about efficiency but he is the most inefficient man I've ever met.

Today this custumer had a Verizon modem that was not compatible with our NX8 panels. We had already tried twice previously at other places and both times they didn't work and Verizon told us they won't and will never work with NX8 panels. I tell our boss this at the job and he says he'll talk to the customer about it. Well i thought that was the end of that. After lunch, he was back at the job and wanted to try it again. I was like, didn't we already try this twice? But he was like yea but this could be a different model....it wasn't. It was the same exact thing. They don't make different models. It's the exact same f**king thing we tried to make work the past 2 times. Well, we ended up wasting a couple hours and in the end it didn't work. Im seriously considering somewhere else. He totally disrespected me. If he listened to me to begin with, we would've been out of there sooner. Im searching now as we speak.

the longer you work, the more astonishing it is that people have mastered the art of faking intelligence.

That's exactly him. He acts like he's smarter than everyone else and only his opinion rules supreme. Really, he is an idiot and i dont understand how he's been able to stay in business because of it. I could write a book about how dumb this guy is.

You had to call verizon to figure out the problem. How much smarter are you then him?

When you have a problem with a product and have tried all you can to make it work, don't you call customer service?

We didn't have to call this time about their modems and their ability to transmit signals with our boards because I already knew it wouldn't work due trying to make it work previously. I told him it wouldn't work, he wanted to do it anyway, and what do you know? It didn't work. Two hours down the drain from a man that preaches about time.

      Highest rate of incompletions due to WR error

      That's a serious word salad. Anywho. Both Justin Fields and Daniel Jones have always had something Bryce Young does not possess. The necessary physical tools.

      Highest rate of incompletions due to WR error

      By Loyalty4Life · Posted

      What it feels like is a horrible source reality. What a person sees is a horrible source for reality. Stats can be easily misunderstood because because they are interpretive and contextual. Very large data sets with dozens more more connected variables are difficult to deal with and understand correctly. Throw in confirmation bias, abstraction, emotions and the way human brains are wired make it really easy to roll with eye tests and intuition. The negativity for Bryce was really high and most were ready to trade that asset for peanuts until the second half of last year when he began to play much, much better.  Hope sprang eternal.  The Saints game last year.  Going toe to toe and almost beating the two teams who went to the Superbowl last year.  Beating the Falcons when the Falcons had everything to play for.  Haters started adjusting their tune. Fan and media starting saying it looks like Carolina has found their franchise QB.   The real answer was and is, maybe. If he plays great on Sunday the anti-Bryce crowd will find other excuses or say it's only one game. If he plays horrible, it'll be more of the "I told you so. I knew it before he was drafted." (which is beyond stupid since there there is not an actual way to know if a player will be successful in the NFL or not.) I'll leave with a simple example.  Of the initial list of incompletions due to WR error, Jarod Goff has 0.  He was 31 for 39 at an almost 80% completion percentage.  His WR's much has balled out. Except when you add the facts that only 11 of those passes were to WRs.  14 were to RB's and 6 to the TE.  Gibbs has 10 of those receptions and he's elite so that explains why we shouldn't put much stock into this stat.  But then we see that Gibbs also set an NFL record with the least number of yards (31) for any player with at least 10 receptions in a game. Fun stuff! Oh yeah.  From week 1 how many people had Justin Fields and Daniel Jones playing at elite levels?

      ESPN's Benjamin Solak on Bryce Young

      How do you reconcile with the fact that the most competent and productive the Panthers passing offense has looked at any point between 2023 and 2025 were both games where Andy Dalton (who is completely washed and terrible) started? 680 passing yards and 5 touchdowns in two games. And one of those games was with Frank Reich as the head coach. This team needs competent QB play.
