Just curious, but I joined OTT in November of 2018, but on my posts it says I'm a 3rd year apprentice.

Elaborate please.

Your "standing" appears to be connected with the number of posts you've made not your time of membership. Check my join date and my status, you'll see.

Welcome to "Orange Math" where the time passes differently.... but you remain an 'apprentice' for a lot longer than in the traditional world.

BTW: Notice on the left under my name that I joined in 2016.... but only 2 years have passed.

Yep post count and nothing more... If it was truly a Knowledge based option, then there would be several still in the novice category many years later!

Actually it is Trump that has the reputation for not getting numbers straight.

Heres a number he got right though...3.7

Thats the percentage of unemployment in the united states in August 2019. The lowest in recent history all thanks to him and his policy.

Bash him all you want, hes still your President

Bear in mind that while the unemployment rate is pretty low, the job quality index is also pretty low -- meaning many are struggling to get by in low paying, part time, jobs. Think Walmart Greeter vs skilled labour. And many more are no longer counted in calculating the unemployment rate because they have simply given up.

There's lies, damn lies and statistics.

Sadly the "labor" market is being occupied by those that are actually willing to labor. Carpenters, roofers, and stone/brick masons, to name a few. Here they are Hispanic mostly from Mexico and Guatemala.

Not trying to make a judgement or a political statement, just the way it is.

Thats true. One side has no direction except for hate while the other Makes America Great.:)
Funny how the R party is screaming how bad and unfair that the D party impeached the R president, but back when the R party impeached a D president it was ok. To many people are too narrow minded and only follow what they are told and don’t really think for themselves anymore. You got to look at the whole picture and not just part lines. Brainwashing is easy especially when enough money is spent to do it.

He should be impeached just for being stupid,

"We are going to roll back to Incandescent lamps, because the LED's make me look orange"

Yes that was his Quote and Reasoning for doing such a stupid thing! :confused:
