I didn't even consider incorporating toy distribution... At what levels should kids get a small gift(a toy or game) vs a large gift(bike, game system etc).
In a real world scenario I would probably spilt this between 2 databases.. One for kids ("with a nice score of 2 you get a toy of value 4 or less") and one for toys ("the toys available with a value less than 4 are...")
I mean in a certain light, christmas presents are a yearly bonus for children and Santa checking his list is a management review of the child's performance...
Actually I think there should be a intermediary table as a history of activities of each child. Like child table is I'd, name, age, address, and naughty/nice value, activities would be Id, description, and good/bad value. Then a history table of ID, child_id, activity_id. So santa can recalculate a child's naughty/nice value to "check it twice"
I think you would have a table of "activities" with a value of how good/bad each is. So like cleaning your room would be +5 but crying in a store because mommy wouldn't buy you a toy would be - 15. Then you have a table for children and each child starts with 0 in January and then for each activity the child does there naughty/nice value gers adjusted. December 24 Santa runs a query on the dB and gets a list of every child with a positive value.
Keep in mind I currently feel sick and put about 5 minutes of thought into thus.
This actually gave me an idea. Over break I wanted to practice dB design and entity framework. Designing a database and interface for santa to track kids naughty or nice could be a fun/interesting way of doing it.
I'm not a lawyer but my understanding is that determination comes down to 3 points.
An employee uses company tools and materials. A contractor supplies there own. If Amazon supplies a truck I think this would lean towards employee.
A employee has set working hours. A contractor sets there own hours. I think this leans more on contract cause I thought the point of flex was you make your own hours.
An employee can only work for one company at a time. I don't mean you can't have 2 jobs but you only can do one at a time. Like you can't be a doctor at one hospital and then also be a doctor at another hospital that is competitive. I don't know Amazon's policy on this. Are you allowed to be both Amazon flex and work for like UPS?
It would be interesting if she used a major corporation. I know no non-public info but let's say she got a flight on American Airlines.
The Texas government suing American Airlines in a civil case(both parties have an army of lawyers and funds to defend themselves) over this would probably set legal precident.
I don't agree with the law, just stating that the resulting suit would be interesting to follow.
To make it more complicated does every decade matter the same? Does your twenty's when you are out partying matter as much as your thirty/forties when you are most profitable for your capitalist overloads? What about your nineties when you are frail of health but hopefully surrounded by loved ones?
That actually is a real thing. Sometimes when one long term partner dies, the other quickly follows with no explainable cause. Like a man who gets yearly physicals and no history of heart problems dies of a sudden heart attack with in a month of his wife dying, that sort of thing.
I hate when articles say "will cost X number of lives". No it won't. It will cut them short, it will costs years off people's lives. Unless it's sterilized people it won't cost lives.
A person may die at 40 instead of 80 but that is still a life.
Am I old if I remember xoom?
