My real proof is in the unsigned invention agreement, that he forged using the signature from my employment agreement.

My personal interest is that I had the best job I ever had in my life. I was fired, along with my best friend, who was my supervisor, for discovering the CEO's embezzlement. My best friend owns 15% of the company, so he's been unwilling to do anything about it. The CEO own's 45% of the company, and he convinced the board to give him an opportunity to sell off the company. He's had a year now, and he's failed to sell it.

I knew, when I quit my previous job in December of 2017, that the CEO had previously embezzled money. Spending $10,000, on a stripper in New Orleans for one night. So I didn't sign my invention agreement, so that I would have ownership of the code I wrote, which is now in some rather large museums. Midway in San Diego. MOPOP in Seattle. Field in Chicago. Nelson Atkins in Kansas city. Dali in St Petersburg, Florida. When I was fired, he forged my signature using my employment agreement(with something amounting to MSPaint, there are obvious artifacts), but I kept the unsigned papers, with the microdots, so I can prove it.

I've been unemployed for approaching a year now. I haven't even managed a single call back, a single interview, for jobs I've applied to in the field. Granted, I changed industries to work in AR/VR, for the 18 months I did, but I was really good at it. So, while I can't prove that this is due to anything besides my inexperience, due to the praise I received for the products I made, I have a hunch that my former CEO has poisoned the well for me, at least in some cases.

There's nothing good in fermented grape juice that isn't much more abundant in whole grapes or raisins. There is no benefit to moderate alcohol consumption unless you misinterpret data by counting sick ex-drinkers as non-drinkers. Drink if you want, but don't jerk yourself off about it.

Best way to drink a lot without getting a hangover is to befriend moonshiners (or become a moonshiner yourself) and make sure they give you moonshine that is *only* the hearts of their run so there is little to no methyl alcohol in what you are drinking.

Imagine you're starting a new wine making business. You need to get attention. How do you get attention? Cute animals on the label. Edgy names. Bold, obvious, aggressive flavors that stand out in a side by side tasting when someone's been drinking all day and maybe bored. Then what. You've got your attention. Who buys your stuff? People who fall for gimmicks like that. Why change? It's risky, you'll alienate your customers, and it will take a lot of work to get new ones.

I only use vivino mostly for finding the best deals on a particular kind of wine. Interesting that everything that doesn't taste like Belle Glos or Prisoner is always under a 4.0. There are incredible burgundies which are extremely subtle and delicious wines yet have 3.5 ratings. If you want real ratings use cellartracker.
