I just added my email address to my profile.
They don't realize how independent they can be. When you're a child, your parents tell you what you're supposed to do. Then, you're in school, and you're part of this institution that tells you what to do. Then, you go work for some company, and the company tells you what to do. So people come in like baby birds in the nest and open their mouths, as if they're expecting us to drop food in. We have to tell them, "We're not your bosses. You're in charge now." Some of them are freaked out by that. Some people are meant to be employees. Other people discover they have wings and start flapping them. There's nothing like being thrown off a cliff to make you discover that you have wings.
I've been talking about entrepreneurship with some people, and realized how true the "Some people are meant to be employees" part is. Most people are so afraid of failing they aren't even willing to try for fear they might not be able to do something.
That's pretty misleading - they make it sound like if they press the wrong key once it'll destroy the FBI's entire system.

I haven't hired developers, but I've worked with several writers. Quite a lot of the ones I've worked with didn't have previous work experience but they had sample articles uploaded for me to judge their skill and style.
Flight mode would provide the same level of protection as this and at a much cheaper price.
After I got the chargeback form though, dealing with the Chargeback Department was a breeze.
Your story is good enough that it will be read even without a linkbait title. Maybe you could add a short teaser at the beginning of the article? The current one doesn't do it justice.
