Knowing what you know, would you buy what your employer sells?
yes, they have a monopoly on the postage stamp industry.
>>62061106No. I honestly can't tell the difference in quality between our products and a Chinese product.Not going to tell you what industry I work in, but I'd rather own a Samsung over our own products.
>>62061106My employer?
>>62061106Probably since you dont have a choice

>>62061106No my employer is going to get 10s of thousands of people killed eventually
>work at bank>know how banking works>know how fragile banks are>know that fiat currencies never lastThat's why I put my life savings in PMs
>>62061106What employer? I'm retired.Going by my last job, though, absolutely would. They were a high-end tech manufacturer. Apple horned in on their product area and another company fucked them over bigtime, but their product is still the best on the market for their niche, much better than Apple's even with Apple's much-overhyped hype machine and rabid fangirls (all Apple fans are girls even if they have dicks).
>>62061496I had one like that once. They were a "healthcare" software company. Their product was a complete fucking trainwreck that would never ever function properly. The whole reason they even existed was that IBM wanted to sell a warehouse full of shitty 286 wall-mounted computers that they were stuck with, and they figured hospitals would buy them and use them as patient-care nursing terminals in hospital rooms, so they could jack up the price even more than the worthless chunks of garbage would have sold for normally because "healthcare".The software would crash constantly.The software couldn't even properly display a list of patient orders.The software was slow as dogshit because it used massive amounts of memory(*).(*)This was actually considered a "feature" by IBM because it meant that on top of buying the shitty 286 machines, hospitals would also be forced to buy an enormous $16,000 memory upgrade for every terminal. I actually found a way to fix the memory problem while I was there, but they refused to implement it because that would kill their "upgrade" sales.End result, if that garbage had ever deployed to hospitals, people would have died in droves from it.Luckily it was so bad and so late and they had so many problems that they could never fix that IBM eventually sold it all off to another company, which kept trying to fix it for a few years before it finally died the final death.Ever since, one of my basic tenets was to never get involved with anything from IBM or to buy anything from IBM. Same with Arthur Andersen (now "Accenture") -- anyone who suggests you hire them for anything should immediately be fired.
>>62061106>RoadYea probably.
