They are building this plant right up the road from me. It is huge. Displaced a large section of farm land they had bought when building out the Saturn plant.
Could you speak more to the part about PCI compliance? My experience has been that you can provide an AOC for provided services but it doesn't make someone's PCI obligations go away entirely. Even a PCI recognized point to point encrypted solution doesn't completely remove all PCI-DSS obligations. Maybe for folks that do a SAQ it would largely make issues go away but a larger entity doing a full ROC/AOC I would imagine would still have a fair amount of work to go through. Do you also happen to work as a merchant acquirer in such a way that you can remove further PCI burden?
That's interesting to hear. Do you have inside knowledge on that? A former colleague in the HR space worked for Apple retail said that many of them were actually not profitable on the whole. They served lots of purposes but most of the value was intangible and not revenue driven. She/I may be wrong but it's counter to what I was told.
- Until you build a network job hunting is a numbers game. Be ready to apply to hundreds of places.
- Be willing to move. During the great recession a lot of my buddies wanted to stay near home and it hurt them a lot. I moved across the country and have been the better for it.
- Be thoughtful about your partner/spouse choices. I married admittedly younger than most do now but your long term partners/spouse will have a huge impact on things like work and where you live. Make sure those are aligned well.
- Don't lie on your resume but don't be shy either.
- Work on your network as much as you can. Hiring is still a networking game no matter how much we wish it weren't. People like to hire people they know.
- Stay out of debt! I spent the first couple years paying off bad college credit card mistakes.
- Start an emergency fund. I would say at least $1000 but calibrate for where you live.
- You're probably living as cheap as you will ever live. Stay that way as long as you can. Don't be too eager to get rid of roommates or upgrade lifestyle any faster than absolutely necessary.
- Start a good routine of exercising and eating right. It only gets harder later and time is not forgiving for putting it off.
- Start being thoughtful about what you have on social media. This will depend on where you work, live, and want to do but give your last few years of online life a good pass and consider purging anything that doesn't represent who you are now.
- Takes courses on ethics, philosophy, speech, and other things that help you to think clearly and speak confidently.
A lot of the new Gilbarco 700 series are coming with them. We're looking at them now and are wanting to get them. Most of the Gilbarco 500 and series 700 can be updated to have them.
My experience with namecheap has been considerably different. Their website for managing my domains never seems to work right and 2 factor auth seems to barely work sometimes. I'm looking forward to moving away from namecheap if it means a better management interface experience.
A lot of golf cart like vehicles operate at this speed. We had a few dozen at the university and all of the "street legal" ones had a limit stamped on them of 25mph.
