  • This is the same in UK. There are people who believe that illegal immigration is the reason rents are high and jobs are hard to get and also they’re all on benefits. It’s illegal to rent to or employ an illegal immigrant and I’m not sure how they are supposed to apply for benefits as an illegal immigrant but the narrative persists. Legal immigrants here have zero access to any benefits at all.

    But, obviously it is all their fault and not those illegally employing and housing them.

    I did this once, it was legitimate but he refused to tell me even what department he called from. I said i wasn’t going to give personal into to an incoming call and i wasn’t calling back unless i knew why. He ended up mailing me a letter instead.

    I almost got scammed a few years ago by being called about fraudulent activity the day after i reported fraudulent activities, in hindsight I think they just got lucky with timing, but I take no chances now.

    Ever noticed how decades ago if someone defeated a bank’s security we called it bank robbery, but now it’s called identity theft and we get blamed for it.

    It’s taken me a while to learn how to use it and where it works best but I’m coming around to where it fits.

    Just today i was doing a new project, i wrote a couple lines about what i needed and asked for a database schema. It looked about 80% right. Then asked for all the models for the ORM i wanted and it did that. Probably saved an hour of tedious typing.
