| I wish power metal was a common thing played on store intercoms....that would be awesome. But yeah for the most part I dislike what they play to its either annoying pop music, the most annoyingly twangy country music where the vocalist seems to be singing through their nose, or hip hop with way too... |

| They always play music so loud in the stores and through almost every loudspeaker so you can't really escape it if you go shopping in a lot of places. Ugh, and every place plays the same track of music! Granted, I know they can't play power metal or Dr. Dre on the intercom but, seriously, can we get... |

| I have never heard of a video game bar, what are they like? Do they have games that you can play? Do people talk about different games besides the very mainstream?(Such as CoD, Madden, GTA, etc.) I can't speak for all of them since the one I linked is the only one I know but I feel more welcome and... |

| Not trying to make the community mad but I have watched over the last 10 - 15 years of how society is supposedly opening up to LGBT people more and I quite honestly don't buy it. I have seen a lot of people who formally were hostile to LGBT people all of a sudden open up to the community and I sense... |

| As far as I am concerned the whole argument of capitalism and socialism is meaningless as far as LGBT rights go, if you actually believe that there is any real difference between the two (or whether a person actually believes in any of them or not). |

| Screaming kids and babies are the worst. I wish I could stick them in a cage and shoot them out into a field. I have openly told these parents in the store and out in public that their kids are a pest and most will act clueless unless you lay the law down with them, as in you talk in a more serious ... |

| There is something else I wanted to mention about Silicon Valley and employment (I'm not done yet 8) ). I think that anyone with Aspergers or autism should be very careful about searching for work in this place. Silicon Valley has a reputation of supposedly being very Aspie friendly and such. From m... |

| ...Meanwhile, play nice and kvetch to your Teddy Bear... I agree with your post here but this line seems a bit insulting to me. Did you really mean to say this? Not meant to be insulting, just a commentary about the interview processes in Silicon Valley. They can be maddening with their conditions ... |

I'm in a bad bind in my life: unemployed, living in a city full of bizarre and unfriendly people, relatives who don't listen, dealing with the crap in my community, worried about college and school, wanting to possibl... |

| Yep, the only thing that makes Google top is their search algorithym. Facebook is pretty much propped up by investors - though they have ads now, which is becoming the death knell. Most large organisations can't do crap, they get too big, groupthink is rife, office politics rule. And the whole thin... |

| It is Firefox that is giving you problems. My boss uses Firefox, and last week he had to break down and use Chrome because Firefox was acting up so bad. The web designer is usually not the code guy. They aimed for the site working well on Explorer and Chrome. Sometimes Safari. My husband said they ... |

I knew that I probably wouldn't qualify for those jobs but I wanted to see how their application process worked given how a lot of companies are having their application process being digitalized. Boy, that was a ... |

| Given your position I would consider either 2 or 3 depending on your preference. Employers do need to be taught a lesson that you don't pull this kind of crap on people. It's bad here in the US where this kind of stuff happens all the time. If money really isn't an issue I personally would go with 3... |
