Long shot of long shots...contact lenses today

My teen leaves for a two week trip tomorrow and I find out they need contacts. What are the odds someone has -4.75 and -5.25 lenses (or near enough) they'd be willing to part with. Happy to pay. This is purely a desperation play. Thx.

Rant Post About Hiring

Not posting the job just frustrated by the lack of preparedness of candidates during interviews. This is for EdTech and it’s a good opportunity. Six figure OTE. Three came totally unprepared. Literally had not looked at the thing they were going to be tasked with selling. Another just flat out lied about a past experience.

I shouldn’t have ask folks to come prepared. But it feels like I have to.

Rant concluded.

Also I am not perfect. Just frustrated.

I've read what I can about girdling, and learned a lot. Mostly I learned that I don't know enough to make this call without asking. I think I should cut 1 and leave the others alone. Plan to cover roots with top soil. What else should I consider? Thanks in advance!

As the title says - if you're in education, does anyone care about this Kind of award. From TIME's article about how they determined the awardees:

The ranking is built on two pillars: financial strength and industry impact. Statista gathered and scrutinized data from over 2,500 companies through desk research, online application forms and collaborations with other data and market intelligence companies. A company received scores in each of these dimensions, which were then combined into an overall score.

For the first dimension, financial strength, Statista analyzed revenue, funding, and market capitalization data, obtained from publicly available sources like annual reports, company websites, through media monitoring, and via databases. Additionally, company disclosures submitted via an online application form, which was freely accessible via the TIME website, were considered.

For the evaluation of the industry impact, Statista cooperated with The Upright Project 1 and LexisNexis® Intellectual Property Solutions 2 to assess companies in different impact dimensions, encompassing factors such as:

  • holistic impact of a company’s product and service portfolio, including its alignment with the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and
  • quantity and value of a company’s IP (intellectual property) portfolio.

This feels like more grist for the hype mill. Am I wrong?
