well perhaps someday WARBLER., INC.™©® will buy them out. But for now, we will just compete with them.

Well, you could be hired to murder yourself, and then hire an incompetent company to do the job for a lower price, keeping some profit of the transaction to you, which you will wisely invest. After five years the incompetent company will fail to murder you, and be forced to return the money. By this time, you'll have some profits from that investment, so when you return the money to Warbler, you'll still have a small profit. Keep doing this with a lot of companies for a long time, and you got yourself a fine business. THAT'S how major IT consulting companies work. A little inside tip few people know.

WARBLER., INC.™©® is not incompetent. Ric, if want to keep your job, learn to respect the company.

Nooo, Warbler, you didn't understand. What I meant is:

Let's say WE, and I'm letting Warbler INC (™©® patent pending all rights reserved) out of the example, hire CHALTAB to murder himself. He agrees, but he hires an incompetent firm ("Empresa de Assessinos Limitada de Nicaragua y Republica Dominicana" would be a good example) to do the job for a lower price. See, I was not refering to Warbler INC itself.

Now, he hires them to murder himself for half the price YOU charged. He keeps the other 50% and invest it in something with a high profit return and low risk, like rigged boxing matches or drugs. Now, the contract he had with you and the incompetent firm stated that if he was unable to die within the time range of, let's say, five years, he would return the money, BUT... without any corrections to the value, like he has borrowed money without rates, which would be illegal for a bank to do, but it's not illegal for a service transaction.

So, he makes sure the incompetent firm will not be able to handle the job by making contractual addenduns, or making sure they don't finish the job, by killing their own hitmen or using a bulletproof vest. So, after the five years the incompetent firm must return you the money, the 50%. The other 50% have become 60% by now, thanks to your investments. So Chaltab here returns all the money to you, since he was not able to perform the job, BUT... he keeps those 10% to himself. Now, he goes ahead and do the same again, and again and again... Soon he'll find himself with a lot of money doing nothing.

In no way I was refering to Warbler INC as the incompetent firm at all... Being a Warbler INC proud employee, I champion my company's excelence in it's services.

But this is how some companies work. They hire smaller companies to do the job and keep a profit out of it. If the small companies succeed in their jobs, good. If not, you still have a profit. Small consulting companies also survive iver this method of working... That's how it works, my friends...

Ric, how long did it take you to come up with a way for me to make money on a contract to kill myself?

As I've said, that's how many companies work. I didn't come up with anything.

You know, Palps said the same thing about Luke... and then Luke got Palps thrown down a reactor shaft. Tread lightly, Warbler.

It's against my policy to throw my bosses into a reactor shaft. Bad carreer move.

"So, uh, why were you laid off from your previous job?"
"I threw my boss into a reactor shaft. He died."
"Oh... Uh... thank you very much. We'll... we'll call you..."

but here's the difference: Palp fail to get Luke to join the Empire, Ric has join WARBLER., INC.™©®. Also, it would be tougher to throw down a reactor shalf. Especially since WARBLER., INC.™©® HQ has no reactor shalf.

Would you like to buy one? Chaltabium Bromide Industries is selling reactor shafts at 40% off standard price for the month of September only! And for an extra $5.00, we'll even throw in the reactor!

Well, I don't know boss, a reactor shaft may come in handy when we need to dispose of those uh... finished business. Plus, along with paintings and plants, it looks great in an office, it's a good decoration piece. Besides, there's extra room on the IT office since I've desmissed all the software engineers and hired extrremely cheap programmers from India and Sri Lanka to do the job from their own place.

I'll think it over. I hope those programmers you hired from India and Sri Lanka can do job. I don't need programs crashing on me at the wrong moment.

They are part of the "Third World Country IT Developing Move" program, which is set to move all those tedious and time-comsuming tasks such as programming and filling up programm specifications to people in Brazil, Peru, Suriname, India, Sri Lanka, Madacasgar, Somalia, Vietnan, North Korea and Cuba. We hire fifty thousand people aged 12 to 17 with no experience with computers at all, paying all of those people 10 dollars a week. The 50 thousand people get the 10 dollars a week, divided between themselves. With all those people, SOME good coding actually comes out - it's a variant on the "infinite monkeys writing the perfect novel" theory. THAT'S how the major companies work.

that maybe how major companies work. But, I am unconvinced that, that is the best way for WARBLER., INC.™©® to go.

I, for one, am in support of the new reactor. You might consider getting one quickly, before the Mangler's do, and, there may be some Mangler loyalists on this board, so hurry!.

A reactor is a hazzard. Starwars fans of all people know this. You need to go with fossil fuel power, or water/wind energy.
