What the company likes about the old timer is that because he has been there for 10 years, he will likely be there for the next 10 years to support the complicated system he is creating now. If a younger team member creates something using a modern approach, there is the risk they will leave in a years time and no one knows how the system works.

As a white South African, I agree. I'm sorry you end up with these people, but I'm glad they are no longer here.

These aren't just racists. They are also mostly people who believe they are owed something for nothing and will drain resources from the USA government.

Surge in Wendy's complaints exposes limits to consumer tolerance of unstable prices

The whole idea of a franchise is so people can get the same menu at the same quality at the same price no matter where they are. Having dynamic pricing means you can't even be assured of the price at a single location, let alone being in a new city with an unfamiliar restaurant.

If you don't know what you are going to be able to buy with your $5, then might as well go to someplace different.

Some song contest (Eurovision) had gotten so big it was a galactic event. The sponsoring company had invaded one of the planets, stolen their resources (a honey flavored flower) to make a what I think was a cereal, then set fire to the planet to destroy the farms so no one else could get access to the resource.

The singing competition then banned residents of the planet from entering the competition so they didn't have a galactic stage to speak about the sponsors shitty actions.
