    A qualification don't mean shit. You have security when they are dependent on you or you are in a contract. Some employers are nice and will keep you around even though you cost them money and there is no work for you, others will fire you just because.

        I never said I couldn't. I am just reluctant to work at a gas station or some shithole. I ran away from my last shithole job in the hopes that I could at least find a place with better people regardless of the work. There are still plenty of places for me to try. I try to get work from the most desirable places first then work my way down the latter.

          Waffle House pay is a lot better than McDonald's. Waffle House is also a better environment than the drone based workplace of McDonald's.

                                No, it's the employer's fault. They don't hire on the basis of competency.

                                  I won't fault you for going to school. Personally, I'd have aimed a little higher to start but I can understand if your parents want to keep you closer to home for a while at your age.

                                    I've no problem with education. I do have an issue with people going to phony private institutions and getting qualifications that dont mean shit.

                                      I agree generally, but since the world is interconnected, one would expect in this instance for it to be true. IF not, as stated, these effects are eother geographically, or in some other way specific. Here, the effect is specific to large cities. Therefore it is not truly global in nature.

                                      Truth is the subjection of reality to an individuals perception

                                        If anyone can think of a more succinct way of displaying complete and utter ignorance of all things statistical, I would like to hear it. For now, this statement tops my list.

                                        In which case it ISNT global warming because what you say it true. Its global average warming.

                                          That's not true, especially in a local sense. And by local I mean local in relation to a function. You can find local trends in a stochastic process that when you rescale the function the trend completely disappears. Similarly, scaling down a function can cause trends to vanish. Thus you can't expect any finite subset of a sample to display the same trend as the population. Duh.

                                          Thankyou for proving a point. This then is global average warming.
