Operation Steel Wizard

I wonder how many people are excited for this so they can start using all of their doomsday preparation stuff.

Speaking of which, I wish I was in that business. If you can market something to the prepping community,  you are set. I might start up a business to sell anti-zombie rope.

I have observed two problems that I can only point to a culture of mindless cooperate bullies.

Let’s start with the evidence.

• While wait to board, and mother approached the counter asking when does the  family boarding happen. This mother was holding a <6 month old. The agent sternly said there isn’t one.. When the mother said there was one on my previous leg, the agent replied, “Sorry, it policy that we don’t have a family board”. The mother and child waited out till their section was called. 
• United beat down. A flight was overbooked. And agent randomly selected ~4 people to get off the plane. When one person refused, the police attempted to forcably remove this person.

From these events, I can only conclude that there is a culture of employees hiding behind “rules” that is not empowered. I generally appreciate these tatics in business negetions, engineering reviews, or even commercial pricing. It is tough to be partnered with a customer service based company when the customer is treat with no grey scale. Black and White. The company is always right and you are always wrong.

Lumosity scores around the world. I assumed the more populated cities would be in the top 10. Guess I am wrong again. There is a lot of influence to arrive at this score.
