So how do you get away from FICA/SocialSecurity taxes?

My 300k is 1/3 in private stock options which may not actually become money for another 5yrs, if ever. They don't accept it in exchange for homes and my 200k income isn't enough to buy a home, esp given there is a mass layoff every 7yrs. House prices go up more than the down payment I save each year so I get further from owning a home. Oh, and the east bay is about 2hrs fro SF so I'd never see my kids even if I bought a home

To be fair "elite" here means a child care facility that can stay overtime when I am stuck in the office on production duty till 9pm, which is like every week. This isn't a government job where I'm guaranteed exit at 5pm on the clock.

If people reapply wouldn't they know the interview already? Seems to me TB is obsessed with UDP and thinks it is 70% of what engineering is all about.

Sounds a bit like the game Civilization!

I think what many comments are missing is how self driving cars play into this. Imagine a car goes to the store, pings a helper for the items, drops off the items. Wages are way lower and you have mostly capital cost.

Are these western names used in western countries for Japanese products or so the names also get used in Japan?

Isn't the motive clear form the article? The Fed and US adept of Treasury were completely controlled by ex Goldman execs -- the motive was to find a scapegoat to stick the debt with, while Goldman got off getting paid 100cents on the dollar. Goldman equity was less than what they would have lost on AIG CDS so AIG bankruptcy meant instant Goldman bankruptcy.

I can tell you why...at my Last firm, the "first submitting agency" was tied to your name on FieldGlass. You could not get around it. It was the only system you could hire thru firmwide.
