Raise my home value 😉

I don’t know, prices are still pretty high in my area of central Florida. A couple years ago every home was sold above asking price within a week of being on the market. Now it takes a couple weeks and they are going at high asking prices. One house down the street from me just went for three times what I paid 8 years ago. It has new roof windows and ac and mine needed replacements, but still triple the price in less than 10 years.
 
What are your thoughts on OUC? Personally, I think they may be one of the ways a certain city hides money.
They would fit right in with other similar utilities. I was selected for a job with them, then, after initial selection, I was disqualified for doing some work that was adjacent to the project. They claimed it was an unfair advantage. It was fabricated bs. And they handed the job to one of their two biggest contractors afterword. I haven’t pursued any work with them since then because I think their procurement is crooked.

There have been significant accusations that Tallahassee does this with their electric utility over the years as well. Seems like par for the course iyam.
 
Been thinking about this a bit on how to handle deportation due process. Update the CBP One app and use it to quickly use “due process” for deportations.

Process 10,000,000 applications in 270 days. Hire only people that went to at least two Trump rallies. Review every application and deny anyone that is here for economic purposes or is not under actual oppression. That probably gets 9.75M of them. Could double the comp rates I gave below and it is still cost effective.

1. Time required per application
  • Each review takes 15 minutes from a worker
  • Then it takes 15 minutes from a supervisor for review
  • So total time per application = 30 minutes (15 worker + 15 supervisors
2. Total work time required
  • 10,000,000 applications × 15 minutes per worker = 150,000,000 worker minutes
  • 10,000,000 applications × 15 minutes per supervisor = 150,000,000 supervisor minutes
3. Worker capacity
  • Each worker works 8 hours/day = 480 minutes/day
  • Over 270 days (no vacations but there are holidays)
  • 480 minutes/day × 270 days = 129,600 minutes/worker over 270 days
4. Supervisor capacity
Each supervisor also works 129,600 minutes total (same as workers), and needs 15 minutes per application.

Final answer:
  • 1,157 workers
  • 1,157 supervisors (probably far less if you just review just those that are approved to stay)
  • 1,157 workers × $70,000 = $80,990,000
  • 1,157 supervisors × $90,000 = $104,130,000
 
I saw 30 year old underground cable last week. I still occasionally see 60 year old pilc cable in service (yikes).

The problem in hurricane land is that we have power outages over half the state for a week after a big storm because a tree branch is sitting on a line. If you get those lines underground, every hurricane recovery is much easier and faster. Then of course for the area of direct impact you have to rebuild the entire overhead distribution, which takes weeks or even months for a bad storm. We should absolutely have underground distribution here in Florida.

Meanwhile our major utility companies are making so much money that they are creating programs to finance capital projects so they can report less profits.
Essentially none of that is true.

I like using the app. Just have Grok do the review.

But to solve this real quick tell everyone to go check in with a US Embassy abroad for an interview. Once out of the country probably won’t get back in, and this is essentially a self deportation since it will take years for the appointment.
Except a few visas and green card holders or since we need population any female 7s or above, annd age 28 or younger can stay.

Problem solved.
