Pretty sure gaming consoles also cost more money to make than they sell for.

Yes they do.

There is actually a fair-trade anti-monopoly law that says technology manufacturers cannot sell a device for below a certain percentage of the cost it is to make within a certain window of release. Otherwise a company with the most money could ensure almost 100% saturation by almost giving the product away in hardware, then simply make money off of proprietary sofrware sells that only function on their own hardware.

I hope somebody links to it. I forgot what its called.

But the market has adaapted and now the companies all price their consoles similarly so that there is NO cheap option, bypassing the need for the law overall. Except for Nintendo, which always releases affordable systems so that poorer ppl and younger ppl can afford them. Its in thier business statement.

The stuff these companies put in their meat to make them last longer
Coloring, preservatives, all types of chemicals. Even the meat you think is all natural isnt. So much trickery involved in the grocery business.

Tell em. Been in this thang 2 years, worked on VH1, BET, MGM, and projects that never got picked up. But yeah, just as in life skin color matters. A lot of non-black folks are behind some of your favorite "black" shows.

I kind of disagree with the last sentence though, it's more about knowing somebody and networking. I got into the industry off the strength of a fellow college alum, in a position that was WAY away from what I majored in. I'd say more than half the people in this industry didn't study their craft in school, just worked, worked, worked and now are have that $2500/week job.

how much money people in "ordinary" jobs make in the production industry

Is it a hard job?
And is it different from the music industry?

I'm not a contractor, i'm an government employee. WTF are you talking about, where did I say I was bytchin and complaining. Working for the gov has it's benefits...besides...keep your friends close, keep your enemies closer.

[hoodheronova]

outside exceptional cases (read: johns hopkins) state run hospitals have much better qc than private ones, esp if they are research based or attached to academia ( any "university" hospital). also they get money from soliciting donations, they have a "development office" full of highly specialized people and huge shmoozing budgets set up for that. i mean these people are all over the fukking world just hitting people up for millions

i didn't mean you in particular,should have clarified it..moreso for the conscious/trillitants on the site

Anything from IT work to HVAC. One of my professors said she was taking 2 million a year as a contractor

World War 3 Soon Come

NASA announced the presence of water on Mars to gauge the public's reaction as a test to see if they can finally announce that aliens exist(if they already haven't shown their presence to you on a personal basis)

Amerikkka still has further to crumble&will continue to do so

Are you joking in this post? It sounds like some conspiracy stuff.

This is what I learned as a teenager and college student working at grocery stores and food manufacturing plants.

All grocery stores have roaches and mice. All grained food (such as wheat and flour) has insects and maggots in it.

That's not true. Everyone would be sick if that was true. I have seen some in old grained products, but nothing in new stuff that was just purchased from the store.

I worked at a newly built Dunkin Doughnuts for a couple of months back in 08 when I was 18 going on 19. Speaking for the store I worked in, we never made ANY of the doughnuts or food in general. Everything was shipped from a factory and was already pre made and frozen. The only thing we did was heat them up. The store ended up shutting down a couple of years later when it was robbed and it is now a Firehouse Sub place.

Isn't that how they work in the first place though?

The acid yes essentially it "eats" whatever is blocking your pipes. Well Most people don't have a "blockage" tho. They have a belly (the pipe loses its downward pitch at a certain point) and whatever liquids and solids sit in that belly including the Draino. Couple years of that acid just sitting there and u now have a hole in your sewer pipe. All that waste from food, grease, urine etc attracts roots from all sides. Chiching! Hello $15k
