This reminds me of the best bumper sticker I've ever seen. It was in a convention parking lot (think it was MidSouthCon) and said "I am Lysdexic of Borg. Prepare to be asslaminated."

Everyone should opt out. And probably quit.
|
|

That would be very smart. Reality will be that the tyical yes-men will not let the opportunity to crawl into someones 'assimilator'. Others will keep their mouth shut out of fear and play along. Most of those who wanted to opt out will be persuaded bribed with a small gift. Wanna have a new smartphone?
And those that actually are smart enough not to play along will only lose. But yes, I prefer to live without a job before I would let myself be tagged like a dog.

Well, dogs should opt out too.

In a perfect world, yeah. But humans gotta learn the hard way. Eventually, they'll come to understand this is tantamount to modern day slavery, but I digress.

Actually, someone should create a minicapacitor that charges off the body somehow, hack the supply chain to those 'rice' implants, and have those installed instead! Then, every 25 minutes, or however long it takes to charge up, the suckers can be 'reminded' that they were stupid enough to sign up for such a venture!

That moment in the sci-fi thriller where the bad guy removes the body part of an employee to gain access to a secure area just got a little closer.

It's been going on for years. You all carry around a personal tracking device that posts where you are and what you are doing every day and who you are with including pictures and videos. The marketing gurus call it a "smart phone" and y'all fell for it long ago.
There are two kinds of people in the world: those who can extrapolate from incomplete data.
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

Today is 24/7 
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

Yes, that's what we need, to invent yet another day we may not dare to forget once it has been established.

It is very easy to remember your anniversary. Just forget it one year.
Arguing with a woman is like reading the Software License Agreement. In the end, you ignore everything and click "I agree".

And Valentine's, and Mother's day, and...
Sooner or later it will come down to having one day off that we don't have to remember in the proper fashion every year.

This is to inform you that a new standard CSC-S17-001 Standard for standards has been published on CSC Share point site . This replaces the existing Standard GGC-S13-001 Standard for Standards which has been archived.
The new Standard replaces all GGC words with CSC and the Standards template incorporates the name and business unit of the document owner with some minor changes in the process of publishing the standard document.

I personally would really appreciate knowing that the standards are kept up to date, and that there is a revision history that is terse enough to let me know I don't have to go back and read it to understand the changes.
