There are many life situations that can render a lacklustre job more convenient - a short commute, child care or other caring responsibilities, health issues, working hours
One major thing is that some people are tied to a particular employer by their work permit / visa.

WTF? Potty-mouthed intern's obscene error message mostly amused manager
Monday 15th January 2024 11:06 GMT
My old work had a manager who a probably racist habit of only hiring Indian people and as such there were many more Indians than you'd expect. Consequently there were lots of Hindi swearwords flying about and the other staff members learnt some new words and joined in the fun... This meant that everyone could swear and not say naughty words in English. This was fine until there was a guy of Indian descent visit the office and was most disturbed by the white guys swearing profusely in Hindi...

COVID-19 infection surge detected in wastewater, signals potential new wave
Wednesday 10th January 2024 07:58 GMT
Re: "the only figure that really matters is hospitalisations"
> Of course, but we the public needn’t lose any sleep about it until it’s confirmed to definitely be A Problem.
We know that it takes a few days of infection before symptoms appear (it's detectable by PCR at this point though) and then those who get really ill do so about a week later. The wastewater tests give hospitals some warning so they can plan bed allocation etc better.

Ubiquiti blunder let some folks view others' security cameras, accounts
Monday 18th December 2023 13:01 GMT
Re: Exactly
Ubiquiti should be providing a proxy to your device, using encryption that is only ever accessible from your account to the devices that match, your device should be rejecting all connections which don't have the appropriate key.
When you install their software, they're very keen for you to use their "Cloud" offering and IIRC it's on by default

Until John's supervisor took a perturbed phone call: "Why does the website say 'Stinky Mac' at the top of the view?" the supervisor was asked.While the boss tried to think of any good reason the website should proffer such a message to a user, the phone call got worse: "How does it even know everybody calls me Mac?"
So he wasn't the Apple of the boss' eye?

Re: is 10x $$$ normal?
If it was the UK would we still be waiting for Openreach (if physical line fault) ?Could this company have paid for 9 more phone line installations (as a one off ) and then had 10 separate consumer grade connections (from different providers) and 10x the speed and resiliance?
I guess in this case they'd all go through the same exchange and/or roadside cabinet so would be vulnerable to the lot going down at once
