Well my opinion is amc has some uniqueness of being almost entirely retail owned.
If it dips more, people buy more.

Notice how the price has stabilized at $50 being a floor.
This usually means it can rise in a day quite quick. It only needs a small catalust and it goes up $10.

And when COVID is over people will come back to the movies too

His answer isn't bases on if you can still make money on AMC but that if you have to ask others then you are neither mentally prepared for the game nor understand what you would be getting into.

Oh so he is just being a d***. Thanks for clarifying.

I was asking because I thought it'd be interesting to put some beer money (more like, PS5 money now that the fucking thing will still be scarce all the way through 2022 and by then I might as well wait for a PS5 pro or whatever) into a meme stock and potentially become right. I don't mind losing said beer/ps5 money since I was going to waste it anyway on said items.

The point is not to care what they think. The problem is they take that and turn it into a rallying cry, which results in mobilizing the troglodytes and having them win elections and also holding the brakes on any democratic initiatives.

Look, lower skill jobs will have tons of applicants. Companies can be as picky as they want with those. Its simple supply and demand. Higher skill jobs mean lower supply and they are more flexible.

Ive worked on new grad roles that will get hundreds of applicants in a matter of days. We physically cant go through them all. And most of the resumes look similar enough. We cant interview everyone. So we decide on the filter criteria. For software engineer jobs, we decided to only look at those with school projects, internships and a GitHub account. As well as whatever particular coding language that team used. Its not because we think all the others are shit, we just need to filter them down somehow.

This is something that hasn't been mentioned:

The HR/corporate guys are playing games. They always come up with new labels and excuses to devaluate and shame applicants so they can tell them they are shit and deserve shit.

If you stay too long in a job? It's bad.
But if you don't stay long enough in jobs then they label you a "job hopper" and then that's bad. Damned if you do, damned if you don't. Apparently you're supposed to stay a medium length of time in a job, and who knows what that length is.

If you're not qualified for the position? It's bad.
But if you're too qualified, then you're "over-qualified", and that's bad too! Stupid you, why did you get that masters'/phd? ;).
But if you somehow manage to nail that "medium amount of education and qualifications", then they will ask you about experience. Remember! You gotta have 5 years of experience in this application that has only been around for 3 years! :P

Do you remember the microsoft guy (not gates, the newer CEO) who gave a speech about raises and promotions? Never ask for one! Build good karma (what is this, fucking reddit?) and the money will come to you. Asking for them just sets back the process!! D: . Just don't get mad and leave when you haven't gotten the promotion or raise after 2 years and the boss' useless son got two already, because then you'd be job hopping ;)

And this is where we realize that the social contract was never a thing.

Things have been carefully designed to funnel people into low pay service, retail and other menial jobs. Everything. Why is health care tied to employers? Why is college a requirement for jobs, yet it's still highly selective and a high capital investment? Why doesn't college prepare you for a job then? Why is the economy always too bad to allow for wage increases or tax breaks or better social safety nets but it is always good enough to afford sending Israel millions or billions of dollars, and giving insane tax breaks to billionaires?

read through most of the posts ITT. Don't you get the feeling that we're going through a second industrial revolution? The psychology of there are 1000 people who want this same position, so what makes you special? Now get into the damn bucket with explosives and put them in the mineshaft is back.

These are the trends that got us where we are, in chronological order, but they don't replace each other, they are all going on right now at the same time right now:

Population growth, corporate consolidation, technology making certain jobs unnecessary, sweatshops (for manual and manufacturing jobs), outsourcing (for intellectual and knowledge jobs) and finally automation.

These things are, interestingly enough, things governments have pushed for hard in the past and still try to sell as a good thing.

I'll leave you to draw your own conclusions as to what this means, but I know you're going to reach the same conclusion we all did big companies tell governments what to do, and it was all about squeezing out small companies, individual labor power and the old rules in order to enrich and give power to said big companies

Next time you read a new story going full chicken little about slowing population growth or labor shortages or STEM shortages or any stupid shit like that, remember this is all manipulation

one last thing: when you hear the word competitiveness it sounds good, it sounds avantgarde. What it means is reducing cost. When you hear about the American Competitiveness Act, or when you hear about shit-eating phrases such as making the company more competitive, or the workforce needs to become more competitive what they actually mean is we need to reduce cost and inch closer and closer to third world standards of living, starting with your own salary

No police force would use a medium-ish sized dog when there are larger breeds that can do the work. I have seen some Pit Bulls that were used for drug sniffing or bomb detection though

malinous are actually too small for the job but they're the preferred choice due to their intelligence

Why the fight?

You use German Shepherd and Malinois for police dog work for a reason. They are not naturally cop dogs, but their breed is better suited for that kind of activity than a Husky or a Great Dane.

You use rotties and doberman as guard dogs because their breed is better suited for that too. You still have to train the dog and teach it how to be a guard dog.

Turns out pitbulls are not natural pit fighters, they are not born being that (point for the pitbull lovers ITT). But turns out shitty people thought they were the best suited for pit fights and trained them for that. Then they cross bred the most aggressive pitbulls to the point that many pitbulls out there are better suited for fighting than, for example, a Golden Retriever. The pitbull gene pool has now many dogs with certain behaviors due to their pit fighting past.

It's not a hard thing to fathom. Retrievers do have a thing for fetching downed fowl and herding dogs do have a thing for herding. We humans bred them that way.

I am not saying all pitties are bad, btw, but some are and that's not necessarily because of bad owners.

Funny you should ask

https://politicstoday.org/hate-crimes-increase-in-the-us-since-trumps-election/

Hate crime in the U.S. has been on the rise since Donald Trump was elected president in 2016.
The Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC), a prominent U.S. civil rights group said it has identified 900 incidents of harassment following Trumps election to the presidency. SPLC outlines that Trumps rhetoric and actions have affected U.S. society.
The number recorded hate crime incidents was around 6,200 in 2016 a 5% jump from 2015. this figure increased by 17% in 2017.
According to the report, 59.6% of incidents were motivated by bias against race, ethnicity, or ancestry. Crimes motivated by a victims religion constituted 20.6% of attacks, and crimes against a persons sexual orientation made up 15.8%

It's in their blood to be aggressive. There's been countless stories where the owner took good care of their dogs. But out of nowhere the dog decided to turn on them.

Just like humans we can be as good as god himself. But we can still possess the possibility of getting angry/aggressive.

God didn't make no creature/human to be perfectly friendly.
