It's a shame they don't want experience. Maybe I should preemptively throw my resume in the trash.

To be completely honest, for all of the reasons you listed above, I previously believed that only retired individuals and volunteers staffed these positions. Grateful to have some insight into this

3/18 fell on St Patrick's day weekend which is basically the super bowl of amateur drinking in the south side

Reply to Why did Vue 412 close? by thehofstetter
Anecdotally I had a pretty meh all around experience the one time I went there last year.
I also noticed they had started offering and advertising carry out and (I believe) six packs to go, which indicated to me that they were struggling to compete with LeMont, Altius, Coal Hill, and Monterey Bay all being right there too.

This so much. The main appeal of arcade bars is that the arcade machines are usually free (at least the best one's I've been too), though with generally higher priced drinks than a standard bar. Coop gets it wrong on both accounts by having overpriced drinks AND paid arcade games.

Reply to comment by tinacat933 in Update On Carrie Furnace Hot Metal Bridge. by Cooch98
I think it's because the moniker is just descriptive:
It was a bridge used to cart hot, liquid metal across the river from one part of a steel plant to another.
So, it may have been a mistake to start referring to "The" Hot Metal Bridge.
Also, I recently learned that, on the South Side, the Hot Metal bridge is properly the bike/pedestrian bridge. The car bridge is the Monongahela Railroad Bridge or something like that.

Because both carried hot metal across the river. It was quite common for a plant to span the river with a bridge in between.

I agree, but that's not how these C-Suites see things.
Employees are a cost center. If they can improve short term profits by getting rid of a 50-year old employee making $95k with some kid out of college who will accept $45k, even short term, that's a win for them. And probably earning them a bonus.
I mean, look at the 401k thing. It's such a small thing in the big picture of compensation of a bank, what could possibly be the motivation behind it other than "As CFO I reduced expenses".
Saving pennies to lose dollars when they get hit with a cyber attack or something in the near future because they replaced the experienced people.

Omg this pisses me off so much too every time i walk by this house (which is every day). They did so much ground work. And the sidewalk is still a mess.
