Sounds like they deserve to fail


I don't really understand how you got there, but sorry to disappoint - my experience was 10+ years ago and they're thriving.


[flagged]


I mentioned one in particular saying nothing of the general market. (The big boy in town is absolutely not thriving, because where do you think locals go - the cheap independent that cares about stuff, or the expensive mega-chain with gormless staff with no reason to care at all?)


Completely wrong.


Which part of the comment is completely wrong? Unless you mean all of the points raised.


This is why I left the tech industry. Nothing but losers with no skills getting hired. No sympathy for anyone fired


No sympathy for someone losing their livelihood, because they're "too weak"? That's pretty dark.


But why do you censor yourself?

Yeah but who are you?


Which world is this? I am genuinely interested and trying to be rude


Fitting username. Have an upvote.


Because the majority of people rent and have no control over this in their place Mr. spoiled rich guy


Your electricity is unreliable because most people rent?

I don't understand the claimed causal relationship.

FWIW, I'm paying rent for my current apartment, we don't have a gas supply, and I've never had a power cut.

Indeed, while I am rich and do own an apartment back in the UK, roughly three quarters of the 16.5 years since I've last experienced a power cut was in property I pay rent for, and only about 4 years were in the flat I own and began collecting rent on when I left the country. Which, ah, also doesn't have a gas supply.

In any case, not sure what this is suppressed to have to do with reliably of the electricity supply — it's not like landlords get free shares in local power grid companies (or if we do, I missed the memo).


> Because the majority of people rent and have no control over this in their place Mr. spoiled rich guy

Sorry but this is nonsense. Your local power utility monopoly is what it is, completely unrelated to whether you rent or own.


This whole thread is a bunch of losers who sit in front of computers trying to understand cooking through the science they learned in front of their computer.

Maybe try to cook first?


Why do you censor yourself?
