    @popester

    No formal training. Jack of all, master of none. Always looking to get better, understand more. My background is HVAC service, engineering. I ran out of things to learn how to do with HVAC so i moved into our IT department. I can honestly say, I will never run out of things to learn.

      extremely costly and a lot less efficient than the US one.

      HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

      US says, hold my beer.

      Being conditioned by the current messaging is one thing, knowing by experience is another.

      Suffice it to say, despite the issues with the US medical system, it is nowhere near as bad as ours.

      A simple solution to the US issue is to put the "price" of services in the consumer's hands. Publish the number insurance pays. Folks will start shopping around for a better price forcing competition. Those multi-million dollar admins hospitals need to run will be greatly reduced.

      Up here, we have no choice. Public Unions and workers scream and Gov throws more money on it. Per capita here in Alberta we spend $10B more than any other province in the country.

      Our system is so bloated and broken that it can take a year or more to get basic surgery services. People are dying up here man.

      The grass is always greener.

      Understood, it just seems that we are trying really REALLY hard to ruin it. I personally liked my plan, I wanted to keep my plan. Didn't seem to work out that way. Don't know enough to argue it either way, just know that somebody is making bank on my premiums that have gone through the roof.

    • Camera for meeting room recommendations.

      Before I go searching for something, has anyone found something other than the cameras that sit on your monitor? I am not even sure what to look for. I have seen some grossly expensive setups in the past. I am looking for something on the affordable end. 3 maybe 500 bucks per camera? Am I smoking crack? The size of the meeting rooms are 15 x 30 foot. 15 x 15 foot and a larger one at 40 x 40 foot. The usage will be for Teams, Zoom, Goto Meeting and such.

    • RE: Need an intervention:

      @brandon220 Fortunately, my wife has learned to deal with it. I have two boys and we all have it. The phrase "Did you, xyz?" is no longer some thing I argue about if i did in fact do xyz. I just answer in the affirmative or negative and move on. Thankfully she has a sense of humor and mostly laughs at the three of us.

      @popester Heck yeah I'm proud of him!

      Gives world experience you will never get at a University. Priceless. I can only hope my boys choose the service. My Dad served, I was too stupid to see the value. So I am a civy. Wish I had a time machine.

      @scottalanmiller since we both live in Texas, can you help me understand your position on the racism part of admission? I honestly dont know about it. I was 50th in my class of 98, so I never bothered applying. Went the community college route. No one that i know has applied to a state university. I attended UNT but do not recall the admission requirements. If this is true I will petition my local representatives to cease and desist. Racist systems truly have to be stopped. I want to be part of the solution.
