Motherfucking A-TEAM font!

In 2013, a crack commando unit was sent to wage slavery by a retarded system for a crime they didn't commit. They proptly escaped from a highly-paid maximum benefit job to live underground. Today, still wanted by employers, they survive as rentiers on fortune. If you have a problem, if no-one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire - the ERE FORUMS.

It's ok for me right now.
I would ditch all avatars and images. But i know some people like them, so no problems for me.

So, uh...why aren't "those" and "fast" capitalized on the new banner?

I think this forum needs a new section for employment & education (hacking employment, getting better jobs, professional skill development).

Good for help on job advancement, payment negotiation, freelance gigs, side businesses perhaps, etc.

The new section should be placed high up on the list, perhaps right after Lifestyle Questions.

That's a great idea. I also think we should do this! It would probably speed up the path to FI for most of us.

I'm not so sure a new section would be useful--we can easily start threads on employment and education in the money questions and lifestyle questions sections.

I think most people use the "view active" and "view new posts", and since there isn't really that much content on this forum anyway, I'd say we need less sections, not more.

That being said, I think more posts on education and employment would be pretty good.

It was a side note I made in a thread about MOOCs. I think we could definitely use more posts about education and employment. People are focused on being done but most people here are probably still working. It's important to make that part of things helpful.

It's likely because the jacob on the old threads don't have the same userid as the new ones I'm creating [because the id wasn't transferred during the migration].
