| I lost my job to broad band
I had a steady paper route where I peddled around and delivered newspapers. People didn't renew their subscriptions and choose to read the paper in front of their CRT's and I was found obsolete.
I then held a job seeking donations for a child abuse charity door to door afterwards. I was surplussed too when online giving grew.
Now I hold advertisements on street corners. Carrying a large sign advertising condos at the moment. I would like to see broadband take this away from me  |

I would like to see broadband take this away from me Ok, you need to start looking for another gig. My company is currently working on a holographic emitter that will be placed on a street corner and will produce a three-dimensional image of a person carrying a sign. The content will transmitted via wireless broadband.

| reply to ninjatutle The state or city by-laws might make your job illegal. There's been a push to ban these in the Santa Clarita area due to their distraction (i.e. sign spinners standing at the corner of intersections). -- Canada = Hollywood North |

The real people lobbying for those laws are telcos and cablecos. Its an unprecedented merger between the 2 to form a vast comspiracy to put ninjaturtle out of work! |

| reply to ninjatutle It Pays to have Broadband is like saying it pays to have a vehicle, after all, we drive both of them every day but how many actually have a license to operate a computer. I've always wondered how many people actually have to wear headsets with the recording of "breathe in and now breathe out, now repeat these steps while you take the headsets off". |
