No Promises...

The Move...

Traditionally buttoned-up Wall Street bank Goldman Sachs has relaxed the dress code for its computer engineers in a bid to attract tech talent with a more casual environment.
The fifth-largest U.S. bank by assets told employees in its technology division to "exercise judgment in determining when to adapt to business attire," according to an internal memo from late June seen by Reuters on Thursday.

The move comes as the bank makes a push to recruit and keep hold of top tech talent in the face of intensifying competition.
Goldman and other Wall Street banks compete for the best employees with Silicon Valley firms and hedge funds. So relax, this is a good time.

Not really. In Nixon time, his people spied on the Democratic headquarter, then he tried actively and repeatedly to cover it up. The first part was scary, and so is the second piece. It is a chain of deliberate acts of deception.

Going Monk...

MGTOW  is a worldwide social phenomenon and online community of heterosexual men who have chosen a lifestyle that avoids legal and romantic entanglements with women at all costs.

A Man Going His Own Way values self-ownership above all else, believing that he  has the right to decide what his goals in life should be. He refuses to surrender his will, efforts and money to the social expectations of women.

Members of the community believe that legal and romantic entanglements with women fail a cost–benefit analysis and risk–benefit analysis. " they see no further incentive to relate [to dating].

Some express discontent because they see women as hypergamous and manipulative.[12] Business Insider reporter Dylan Love wrote a "fully-realized MGTOW  as someone who shuns all relationships with women, short-term, long-term, romantic, and otherwise. Some MGTOW have many short-term relationships or engage in sex with prostitutes.[9] Celibacy, however, is also an option. A MGTOW that chooses celibacy over relationships is said to be "going monk".

Anyone who watches even a little television knows that automakers take advertising seriously and do a lot of it.  The seemingly-never-ending stream of commercials keeps their brands in the public eye, and helps them sell cars to the subset of viewers in the market.

But if you think that electric cars are generally not represented in that stream of ads, you're correct.
The auto industry simply doesn't put much effort into advertising electric cars, according to a new analysis of ads from the Sierra Club.

Visiting many dealerships in the 10 states that have adopted California's stricter emissions standards, volunteers noted issues such as lack of inventory and sales staff that appeared unfamiliar with electric cars.

May be few women can sell a lot of Plug-In cars. Time to try.

Outsell...

Electric cars will outsell fossil-fuel powered vehicles within two decades as battery prices plunge, turning the global auto industry upside down and signaling economic turmoil for oil-exporting countries.  This will happen gradually and started already, with many auto companies coming out with Electric or hybrid model cars.

The Bloomberg New Energy Finance forecast says adoption of emission-free vehicles will happen more quickly than previously estimated because the cost of building cars is falling so fast. The seismic shift will see cars with a plug account for a third of the global auto fleet by 2040 and displace about 8 million barrels a day of oil production more than the 7 million barrels Saudi Arabia exports today.

“This is economics, pure and simple economics,” BNEF’s lead advanced-transportation analyst Colin McKerracher said “Lithium-ion battery prices are going to come down sooner and faster than most other people expect.”

What would the Middle East look like then? Just a thought.

Narcissist is a  person who is overly self-involved, often vain and selfish.
A person who suffers from narcissism, deriving erotic gratification from admiration of his or her own physical or mental attributes. They are extraordinarily conscious about their looks and the appearance to those close to them.

Narcissists lack compassion while may appear to be sympathetic.
They may leave out facts or embellish others to prove their point.  They change things around in their rendition.

You will often see narcissists going about as though they are above the standards. They act as if they are special and that the rules should not apply to them.

A narcissist will typically have no problem criticizing others but find it exceptionally hard taking same.  Owing to their low confidence level, narcissists often speak highly of themselves or make their good deeds known.

 People with this condition are frequently described as arrogant, self-centered, manipulative, and demanding. They may also concentrate on grandiose fantasies (e.g. their own success, beauty, brilliance) and may be convinced that they deserve special treatment. These characteristics typically begin in early adulthood and must be consistently evident in multiple contexts, such as at work and in relationships.  Just a thought.

Hatred...

I am filled with hate and bitterness and it's all your fault!

Hatred is a complicated animal; it is the child of dark forces. When you hate someone, he or she has power over your life and infiltrates everything you do. Your hate slithers into your veins like a serpent, wrapping itself around your heart. You take pleasure in witnessing this person’s demise. You want to watch him or her fail, get hurt and suck at life.   But it never happens.

You spend an exorbitant amount of energy thinking about the target of your hatred, stalking and talking sh... to anyone who listen. You hate this person, but you feel very strongly about him or her. Even though you certainly do not want to admit it, you care.

Hatred is like gasoline. It is a burning fireball of intense emotion. Hatred is fettered in the hottest of passion; you have to care about it and nurture it for it to survive.

It inherently means your feelings are negative, hating someone takes on an almost sexual nature that stems from its ferocity. With hatred, the demon just wants to be released.

Don't release the demons. Keep them within.   Just a thought.
