Hey newfag here , what platforms do u guys use to trade options , calls, puts ? What’s the advantage of trading options over normal stocks?
## Speaker_1: ##
I've learnt a lot lurking here. There's quite a few people here giving out decent advice.
So I'll have a go.
Options are a high risk high return kind of investment where you have a limited time (a day or week, I guess) to make or lose money. You also get to borrow a certain amount (leverage?) so you can take bigger risks for higher rewards.
Shares you can buy and sell as you please. No time limit. You invest what you have.
This is the basic idea of what you asked.
I'm sure someone else can explain better.
Welcome to the fag world.
## Speaker_2: ##
Also options are inherently leveraged as you're taking the right to 100 shares, so if a stock moves up 1% your option will go up by a lot more than 1% usually.
## Walls1337bot: ##
Noob question. With options, do you have to be able to pay for the full 100 shares if you lose on them? As someone with only a couple hundred to play with here, I would like to know I have my bases covered and don't lose more than I can afford to throw away.
## Speaker_3: ##
no only selling options you need the buying power of the shares. since whoever bought the option off you can execute it.
## Walls1337bot: ##
Good to know. I'll definitely have to do more lurking and reading before just blindly throwing money away. Thank you!

What happened to the 2016 "God Emperor" people in wsb?
## Walls1337bot: ##
January 26th happened.
Wall Street is amoral in that if it's good for business, then it's good. Trump was fucking GREAT for business until then, at least in terms of stock growth, so WSB (the Id of Wall Street) was all about the "God Emperor".
Then he started doing unequivocally stupid shit, like sabre-rattling with North Korea, and more recently this tariff and trade war idiocy. These are bad for business, so now Trump is bad.
If he unfucks himself and starts making pro-business talking points again, he'll be the savior that rescued the good ol' USA from the Great Recession of The First Few Months of 2018.
## Speaker_2: ##
>Trump was fucking GREAT for business until then
Lmao, what exactly has he done for business? Which policies are you referring to there? The market has been following the same trend for the better half of a decade. Until recently.
## Walls1337bot: ##
Did you read what I said, or did you just kneejerk to anything positive about Trump? Think, don't react.
I never said Trump did anything of substance that positively affected business. He could've been a fucking Speak and Spell with a GOP sticker and the results would've been exactly the same.
The point is, he was the guy behind the big desk when the S&P 500 went up 20% in a year. And that's why all the unwashed stock-watching masses loved him.

not sure if srs, buying 1000 calls for 13.50 would cost 1.35m.
## Speaker_1: ##
So, I would have to pay that? I don't understand...1000 * $13.50 = $13,500?
## Speaker_2: ##
Price is per share on the call option. So you pay 13.50 * 100 * 1000.
## Speaker_1: ##
Oh ok, so when I enter the quantity as 1000, I'm really purchasing 1000 groups of 100 options at $13.50 each?
## Speaker_3: ##
Jesus, don't purchase anything before you haven't googled what a option even is.
## Speaker_1: ##
I did, I googled all that shit, but no one ever mentioned anything about quantity meaning an allotment of 100
## Walls1337bot: ##
Um, not to sound harsh, but if you googled everything about options, then you would know that each options contract is for 100 shares of the underlying. The prices shown are per share, so you multiply that by 100 for the per contract price. When you put 1000 into the box, you're saying you want to buy 1000 contracts, not have options exposure for 1000 shares (that's just 10 contracts).
## Speaker_1: ##
Actually, I think it did say that, but I skimmed over it...there's a lot of new information
## Walls1337bot: ##

So do they end up with the same income yearly?

Amazon said this would be an overall increase with the extras replaced by cash.

Of course they said that. But bonuses were paid to better workers. So over all that may be true, but the hard workers are once again subsidizing the leaches. Socialism 101.
## Walls1337bot: ##
Holy fuck you’re an illiterate mofo.
First off the empirical evidence says that every time the minimum wage was raised earnings went up.
Second of all few Amazon workers have bonuses. So it’s a net increase for them. Not to mention the reduction in turnover and training costs.
The scientific method says that if you repeat something again and again and keep getting the same results it must be true.
And finally your retarded ass is assuming pay is based off hard work, as opposed to Amazon workers getting paid way below their productivity.
The only leech here is Jeff Bezos paying himself far beyond his productivity. He should have most of his money taken away and redistributed to his employees. We should film it live to get your faggy republican tears flowing.
Taking other ppl’s productivity is a private sector tax.
So in conclusion you’re an idiot.
## Speaker_3: ##
Without jeff bezos there would be no amazon. The people making money off amazon would be elsewhere. Hes not being paid for his productivity. Hes being paid for being the guy that created something insanely awesome that changed the world. He is the god. He can does what he wants. Stop being so jelly and create something amazing.
## Walls1337bot: ##
It’s a monopoly that eats up other companies. If Amazon weren’t there the employees would be working at other businesses since they didn’t get eaten up by Amazon.

I really don't understand why people would want to subsidize health insurance in the first place. If what you really are looking to do is provide health care for people it seems you'd be much better off with a single payer system where you don't have a middle man
## Speaker_3: ##
Single payer would require everyone's taxes to increase, by a lot.
## Walls1337bot: ##
Not really. Single payer systems sit around 8-12% GDP and the US is currently at 18% and rising. So there'd be a hefty decrease in cost unless people elect for private health insurance on top of government provided health care.

News flash: Hes going to be found guilty, because he is blatantly obviously guilty. He lost investor money which he lied to acquire and then plundered his pharma company to pay them back through a series of illegal and traceable transactions. Its an open and shut case. Just because the initial investors made a profit doesn't mean it isn't illegal. Its like, if I tell someone I'm going to baby sit their kid for the night, then steal the kid, lose the kid at the mall, avoid the parents for 2 years, and then come back after 2 years with triplets who I stole from an orphanage and go "oh here, I brought back three kids, so now your up!". That shit isn't legal either. Even if the parents were cool with it, I doubt the orphanage would be.

True, but I have no desire to work for salary my entire life. $2.5m buys me $100k in interest a year forever at a safe withdraw rate of 4%, enough to life comfortably almost any where in the world

"As soybean and corn prices traded lower Wednesday, Mr. Wernz figured the day’s decline alone cut $50,000 off the value of his crops this year. “That’s my first house,” the 39-year-old said, adding that switching 200 acres back to corn could cost him nearly $40,000 more thanks to corn’s higher per-acre cost.
Still, Mr. Wernz said he was prepared to take some losses if it would help curb what he sees as China’s unfair practices on everything from steel to technology.

Was making 130k + 20% yearly bonus + 10% employer match working as a chem engineer for a biotech. Maxed out my yearly IRA plus the $18.5k 401k limit. Bought a 4-bedroom house in the Boston Metro area for rock bottom prices, did a bunch of reno work myself. All that shit was stressful as fuck and for what? My health suffered greatly and I am now stuck in Southie. I gained more than 40 lbs in my 8 years of working in industry, an ungrateful girlfriend, and a dead cat due to the constant stress of being the secondary earner. That was the last straw, my lifestyle literally killed my best friend. I found this sub and finally started to make some real money.
First thing I did was get fired for browsing this sub at work. I knew I needed to make a change and boom it happened. No more of that lame 401k crap and I blew up my IRA faster than an angry Englishman in the 90's or whatever.
Next, I started hitting up the gym. I started out at 27% body fat and could barely bench the bar. That is when I knew that, like my investments, I had to set realistic goals and work hard towards them. I aimed to be in the 1000 club within a year or two, and likewise I wanted my portfolio to break 1 mil in around that time frame.
I rode the recession recovery wagon like a beached land whale after a college rager. Similarly, I was hitting PR's at the gym every week. Went from a 45/45/45 bench/deadlift/squat to 135/135/135 in the first month. In the same time, started trading options in biotech. I was on top of the world. People kept warning me that I would hit a plateau, both at the gym and with my investments because those newbie gainz could not possibly carry through long term but I paid no attention. Just a bunch of haters. It is called creatine mohohydrate, people... the most researched supp in the world. 10mg a day and you are golden.
Fast forward to now, about a year later. I am at 205/225/210 which fell quite short of my goal but is easily explained by the fact that I focused almost exclusively on isolated exercises even though my benchmark was compound lifts. I might not be as strong as I wanted but I look cut as fuck just in time for the winter beach season. Similarly, my portfolio is less than half of a half of what I had originally targeted but it looks professional from a quick glance because I balanced everything thanks to YouTube and this sub.
My testosterone has been boosted to the sky thanks to the lifts and shorts. My 2D:4D ratio is 3 standard deviations from the average woman's now and I feel like I am 30 again. Tons of energy and strength waiting to reap these gainz. I always close my inspirational story with a quote:
"There is no such thing as the bear market. From where I am looking, it is a bull market all the way through the next century." - J.D. Rockefeller, American businessperson.

Similarly, I would expect his portfolio to be lit up like a Christmas tree because he is just another brainless drone following the Flavor of the Week. The funny thing is, out in the general public this turd could pass for a "fit" guy or a "legit trader" but in reality his gainz are still in the novice territory.

That’s a shame and seems done out of spite. His content was mostly hours long lectures on finance, chemistry, accounting, and other serious subjects and there hasn’t been any new uploads as far as I know since Shkreli was incarcerated.
His YT channel really changed my understanding of him.
## Speaker_1: ##
Same. The media narrative quickly fell apart.
## Speaker_2: ##
I mean, he's still a soulless shit. He's just also smart as fuck and pretty charismatic. Your problem is that you're not cynical enough to admit that you like a horrible person.
## Speaker_3: ##
He's a straight up sociopath conning the weak minded. He more or less admitted so on stream when a fan got him to take a "are you a sociopath" test. He was answering yes, yes, yes to all of the questions before he laughed and decided to end the test there.
I also remember him calling his followers stupid - but then he turned that into a joke to cover his faux pas. Moving this here:
I did mock him for like 30 minutes straight about how he was going to go to prison pre trial. Shkreli stone cold ignored me until I started to turn some of his chat against him.
Shkreli addressed me only once with a smirk: "scienter." I did some googling and more or less worked out that his legal defense was going to be to claim ignorance that what he was doing was fraud since the government has to prove intent to get a conviction. And that would leave the lawyer who was advising him responsible for the crime. All of a sudden I realized that he and his lawyer Greebel planned all of this out and that he actually had a decent chance at winning his case because he just has to turn 1 juror to avoid conviction.
To his credit he did turn a juror but not on all of the charges. His supreme confidence came not from being innocent but in confidence of his ability to manipulate people to do what he wanted.

## Speaker_2: ##
Noone really knows how to play craps. You just roll the dice and judge the reaction of the dealer to work out what happened.
## Speaker_3: ##
My friend and I watched people play craps for 20 minutes. No idea how to play, so we lost our money at the roulette table instead.
## Speaker_4: ##
The best way to play is bet on the numbers on the back right, and bet the odds. I think 4 and 10 are 2:1 so bet 5. If you bet like a dollar and you win, the house takes a larger percentage.
If you literally bet on 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, and 10, and betting the correct amount, you're basically getting better odds than roulette. Everything else is for show on the board, the easier the bet they let you put it down is going to be worse for you, the better the bet is if you have to ask the house to place it for you.
Personally I just bet on 4 and 10 and press every time, they land on them, and then 5/6/8/9 I will press every other time.
## Speaker_5: ##
Actually the best bet is to place a bet on the Pass line. Once a number is established place the largest bet permissible behind the pass line for "Odds". This bet pays actual odds with no house advantage.
## Speaker_4: ##
IIRC there is always a house advantage of .5%.
It has been a while since I played (I am a recovering gambling addict) but the best you can get is like 49.5%.
From what I remember they use the pass line to get people comfortable with standing at the table, and that the payout was only like 35% chance to win. Sorry, I forgot the lingo, but the numbers on the back right are without a doubt the highest percentage payout.

Because Tesla vehicles, and specifically this model, are inherently more dangerous than a non-luxury, non-electric vaehicle in this exact scenario. Any car can catch fire, any door can jam, but when you rely this heavily on electrical components to open doors you're bound to have an issue in an emergency. Go on YouTube and look up some first responder training for Tesla vehicles; it looks like they did the absolute minimum in terms of releases/cutoff switches etc.

https://knoema.com/infographics/floslle/top-vehicle-manufacturers-in-the-us-market-1961-2016
Maybe it's because of the real costs of the tariffs (get over it. By your logic we can just let the world lock us out of their markets with no repercussions) or MAYBE it's because that's an easier explanation than why no one buys their shitty cars. Put your brain caps on.
## Walls1337bot: ##
By my logic? I purely said a trade war hurts both sides because it does. What do you think tariffs do to material prices? And what happens when material prices go up? Oh it eats into your margin? If you don't like Ford look at all the auto makers. Guidance is down as a direct result of material prices.
I didn't say anything about whether or not it was the right move politically. You said "how can Chinese tariffs hurt American manufacturing" and materials prices is how there big fella. But anyways you did answer my question. You're condescending because you're dumb.

They have amazing articles, and often lead me to a handful of other articles in the US that are trying to reinterpret those chinese articles.
SCMP is so great though, I highly recommend it. Seems at least once a week lately they have 5000+ word articles written by HK economists from inside China on these issues of trade. Really good stuff.
Here's MSN pulling a recent good article from SCMP:
[https://www.msn.com/en-sg/news/other/trade-war-china-suffers-three-month-export-downturn-as-donald-trumps-tariffs-bite/ar-BBMH2qZ](https://www.msn.com/en-sg/news/other/trade-war-china-suffers-three-month-export-downturn-as-donald-trumps-tariffs-bite/ar-BBMH2qZ)
Excellent discussion of how grossly unprepared China is for fighting the US on aggressive trade policy, primarily due to internal corruption and back-biting.
[https://www.scmp.com/news/china/diplomacy-defence/article/2157028/did-china-think-donald-trump-was-bluffing-trade-how](https://www.scmp.com/news/china/diplomacy-defence/article/2157028/did-china-think-donald-trump-was-bluffing-trade-how)
SCMP has some great discussions of how the new US-Mexico trade deal will also cut exports from China by up to $70B/yr, and China's government was totally unprepared for the restructuring because they bought into the Western media narrative about "Trump's incompetence".

I think I'll start doing that as well, but on Robinhood since they don't charge for options (correct me if I'm wrong). I used to buy big volumes of OTM options on E-Trade, but the prices are silly. Like yesterday I bought 100 $31 BAC calls at 6 cents a piece in the morning, and paid 110 in fees to buy and sell at 15 cents - over 10% of profits eaten up by the broker!

I have a theory that the more screens you have the less money you make.
## Speaker_1: ##
I’m going to guess he’s an arbitrage trader based on what blurry shit I can see on his screens. He probably makes more money than wsb can lose in a month.
Edit : clearly this comment has sparked some useless discussion. I’ll have you all know I completely pulled this out of my ass.
## Speaker_2: ##
The fuck is an arbitrage trader
## Speaker_3: ##
I don't like the other guy's explanation.
As I understand it, arbitrage is when the same *thing* (or effectively the same thing) is being sold at different prices in different locations, but at the same time.
Imagine that you could buy an ounce of silver for $18 in Virginia, then immediately make an arrangement to sell it in Washington DC for $20 an ounce, that same day. You're making money by taking advantage of the price differences in the market.
As far as I know, arbitrage opportunities (in the stock market) are exceedingly rare in 2019. Entirely because of how much the financial technology sector has grown. Arbitrage opportunities, when they exist, are quickly scooped up by automated (expensive) information systems.
Amateurs that think they have discovered an arbitrage opportunity are usually just missing some important reason for the price differential. ~~The best known example of this happening, is with the "Ironyman" story that unfolded here. He thought he had found an arbitrage opportunity due to the difference in prices in options contracts. IIRC, he didn't take into account an ex-div date (a basic thing, as far as stock prices go), and therefore got mega fucked.~~
(Box spreads are a means of exploiting arbitrage opportunities in the options market: [https://www.chittorgarh.com/options-trading-strategy/box-spread-arbitrage/23/](https://www.chittorgarh.com/options-trading-strategy/box-spread-arbitrage/23/) )
Edit: I had totally mis-remembered the tale of 1ronyman; I have brought great shame upon our famary.

Fuck the dumbass loan why are you googling if you can overdose on listerine?
## Speaker_1: ##
One time when I was a little kid, like 8-9 years old, me and my neighbor decided to go on a hike through the woods behind our house. He said he'd bring something to drink if I brought something to eat.
After about an hour of hiking up this big fucking hill we sat down to take a break. I pulled out my "snacks" which was packets of Sweet N Low because that's all I could find in my house. He brought a fucking bottle of Listerine to drink. So we're on top of this huge hill, an hour walk from home, with nothing to eat or drink except Sweet N Low and Listerine.
We were both pretty fucking retarded. Still are. But still not as dumb as OP.
## Speaker_2: ##
Why would you even grab either of those items. If I’m looking through my house for a snack to bring with me somewhere, even if I happen to come across sweet n low, I’m not grabbing it. Would you also grab salt? How about paprika?
I can’t even comment on listerine. How are you even smart enough to operate a smart phone? What the fuck
## Speaker_1: ##
We were both poor and this was a rural area. It was in the 80s. I don't really have an excuse other than that. My family didn't have "snacks" so all I could find were fake sugar packets which seemed like a great idea. I remember thinking either fake sugar packets or the bottle of ketchup in the fridge. But I didn't want the ketchup to go bad, so I brought the saccharine or whatever the fuck Sweet N Low is.
Edit: Also, did I mention I was only about 8yo then? This was bumfuck, Appalachia.
## Walls1337bot: ##

How long would it take to become the richest person in the world compounding your net worth by 3% every trading day?
## Speaker_1: ##
It would take 540 days hypothetically on a 10k acc. Of course this is impossible...
## Speaker_2: ##
It's sort of depressing to hear that it would be impossible to swing in and out of something for 3% a day. I would think that some days you'd hit real big and on the days you choose poorly you have a 3% stop loss or something.
Is your opinion based on the fact that you don't think he'd pick wisely, or more that that type of prediction is impossible in higher volatility stocks?
## Walls1337bot: ##
Note that at some size, it would become impossible to enter and exit your positions without significantly impacting the underlying, so you'd likely need to be correct multiple times per day for each part of your stack.
ie If you have 10 billion, you can't just pop in and out of something. So maybe you need to do 100 trades of 100 million, and for each one close for +3%. So in reality this task gets harder the more money you have.
I'm actually curious where the cutoff is for "holy shit this trade had a significant affected".

If you sell a call on crude futures are you obligated to deliver 1000 barrels of oil to the buyer if you get assigned or can you settle with cash?
## Speaker_4: ##
The underlying of the options contract is the futures contract. Ergo, when assigned on the option, you will be in a short futures position. You can net out of those using cash, until the settlement date. If you still have the position on that date, then God help you

what will happen if you have puts?
## Walls1337bot: ##
You win the game.
Buy the shares from the market for pennies (100 shares per contract you hold)...Sell them to the dumbass who wrote the contract for whatever the strike price was.
## Speaker_1: ##
Can you go a little more in depth here?
This is the first time I'm seeing something like this. I bought a 5 strike put yesterday. What does this mean for me? Today I notice that contract is now worth much more, there is no movement / updates to the contract prices, and the price is still moving.
Whats happening?
## Walls1337bot: ##
well with yours being $5, I hope you got an expiration thats a long ways out so you have time for the company to basically get completely fucked (delisted)
you can either trade the put back onto the market OR wait it out and exercise the contract if (when) it gets delisted and gets moved over to the OTC and starts trading for pennies lol.
when it moves over to the OTC market - you will buy 100 shares per contract for chump change...and then exercise the puts, which means you will then sell those shares to the put writer for $5 each... you just picked shares up for pennies and sold for $5 each lol...thats the dream
## Speaker_1: ##
Okay so the way it works makes sense. Ive Just never had to implement this before.
## Walls1337bot: ##
> Ive Just never had to implement this before.
most don't lol. this is a dream scenario. something like this does not happen often at all.
## Speaker_2: ##
But to be clear, theres still a very real chance I get fucked here and my puts expire worthless if things do not move fast enough right?
## Walls1337bot: ##
Absolutely. That's why asked what the expiration was lol.

Tom's Hardware Germany analyzed its infrared images of the GTX 2080 Ti reference card to investigate rumors that [Micron's GDDR6 packages](https://www.tomshardware.com/news/micron-gddr6-powers-rtx-2080,37755.html) are overheating, thus causing the errors. Thermal measurements indicate that the M6 and M7 GDDR6 modules could run hot during an extended 100% load. The modules are located directly over internal power supply tracks embedded in the PCB. These tracks run between the PWM nodes and the GPU socket. The memory modules could run hotter than the measurement shown in our image, which is a measurement of the PCB and not the GDDR6 module, due to the high currents flowing through the power tracks embedded in the PCB and heat migration from the VRMs.
We don't know many of the technical details surrounding Micron's GDDR6 packages, but we do know they have a maximum safe operating temperature of 95C. In either case, the symptoms of the failures also seem to support the theory that overheated memory is to blame. Most readers have complained of failures after the cards had been used for some period of time, and in some cases, the cards even work correctly after a cooling-off period. The problems also appear to be more prevalent in partner cards that use cheaper cooling solutions.
[https://www.tomshardware.com/news/rtx-2080-ti-gpu-defects-launch,37995.html](https://www.tomshardware.com/news/rtx-2080-ti-gpu-defects-launch,37995.html)
## Speaker_1: ##
Tl;dr don’t be cheap for cooling
## Speaker_2: ##
If the chip is rated at 95C but fails at 78C, this is bad for MU.
## Speaker_1: ##
Most cards will throttle long before 95. My 290x started throttling hard at 80 before I water cooled it.
## Walls1337bot: ##
That’s the temperature of the GPU die you’re thinking of. Components like VRMs will hit higher temperatures even while the GPU die is running at an acceptable temperature (but those components usually have higher heat tolerance as well).

Your total loss adjusts but not the percentage. If you lost 10k and your total loss was around 99%, depositing another 10k will show the percentage lost at about 50%.

Are you saying that a yearly U.S. ~ 1 TRILLION $ Account deficit with China is sustainable?
## Speaker_1: ##
TIL 566B = 1T
But yeah, a $1T trade deficit is sustainable as long as we continue to consume. Prove otherwise.
## Speaker_2: ##
If you are borrowing the money to sustain the consumption, you can bet your ass its unsustainable. Simply, them more you borrow, the more your credit rating drops. The more your rating drops, the higher the action on the money you borrow. So, long and short, its a death spiral. Eventually your creditors will not consider you creditworthy, and boom! It's over.
## Speaker_1: ##
You’re treating the US economy like it’s an individual and not an economy. You’re ignoring the role huge influxes of cash to China will have on their currency and ability to export. It’s not a matter if the yuan will rise; it’s a matter of when.
The trade deficit is sustainable because if America continues to consume it will be because American output continues to rise and American credit hasn’t faltered.
Your initial assertion is loaded.
## Speaker_2: ##
You are correct, up until the credit assumption part. The debt can't grow infinitely; at some point the action on the money will swallow up our entire federal budget, and it wouldn't have to be our fault, at least directly. Factor in a Jimmy Carter-esque 15% prime, and 18% t-bill rates. That would be game over.
## Walls1337bot: ##
>the debt can't grow infinitely
Sure it can
## Speaker_1: ##
It can grow indefinitely but not infinitely.
Eventually someone will go insolvent and blow up the system if debt isn’t managed. On a long enough timeline life expectancy is 0.

That’s a shame and seems done out of spite. His content was mostly hours long lectures on finance, chemistry, accounting, and other serious subjects and there hasn’t been any new uploads as far as I know since Shkreli was incarcerated.
His YT channel really changed my understanding of him.
## Speaker_1: ##
Same. The media narrative quickly fell apart.
## Speaker_2: ##
I mean, he's still a soulless shit. He's just also smart as fuck and pretty charismatic. Your problem is that you're not cynical enough to admit that you like a horrible person.
## Speaker_3: ##
He's a straight up sociopath conning the weak minded. He more or less admitted so on stream when a fan got him to take a "are you a sociopath" test. He was answering yes, yes, yes to all of the questions before he laughed and decided to end the test there.
I also remember him calling his followers stupid - but then he turned that into a joke to cover his faux pas. Moving this here:
I did mock him for like 30 minutes straight about how he was going to go to prison pre trial. Shkreli stone cold ignored me until I started to turn some of his chat against him.
Shkreli addressed me only once with a smirk: "scienter." I did some googling and more or less worked out that his legal defense was going to be to claim ignorance that what he was doing was fraud since the government has to prove intent to get a conviction. And that would leave the lawyer who was advising him responsible for the crime. All of a sudden I realized that he and his lawyer Greebel planned all of this out and that he actually had a decent chance at winning his case because he just has to turn 1 juror to avoid conviction.
To his credit he did turn a juror but not on all of the charges. His supreme confidence came not from being innocent but in confidence of his ability to manipulate people to do what he wanted.
## Speaker_4: ##

Man bought a ticket. Showed up early. Boarded. Was polite to everyone. United overbooks and needs 4 spots given up so some emloyees flying stand-by can be on the flight. Computer randomly selects man to give up seat and he refuses. They had offered everyone $800 credit and nobody took it. Why didn't they just keep upping the offer? They quit after going from offering $400 to $800. Eventually somebody would have accepted a high enough offer. This man was a doctor of all things. Maybe he HAD to be on that flight. Even if it was me, I would have refused. United overbooked. Let those stand-bys miss the flight. They couldn't take a later flight themselves? If not let the airline find somebody to cover their flights shifts.
## Speaker_1: ##
Yeah, I'm pretty sure Standby means you only get a seat if there are any empty!
## Speaker_2: ##
There is another classification for employees traveling on company orders. Positive space are non revenue employees that company will confirm a seat for. "Must rides" are even higher in that they will pull off paying customers to get these people on.
## Speaker_3: ##
They deserve every bit of negative PR and consumer backlash if that is their policy. Even more so if they enforce it with violent means against passengers.
## Speaker_2: ##
I've only worked for 2 different airlines (3 if I count CO and UA separately), but they all have the same policy, because it's covered by the US DOT airline passenger protections.
I know you don't care, but those were Airport or city law enforcement that forcibly pulled the dude off, not UA employees. I'm not trying to defend UA either, just tired of these blown up stories.
## Speaker_3: ##
Why is city law enforcement using violence to take off paid passengers of a private airline so that United can get their own employees places?
Would restaurants ever kick out patrons who just ordered appetizers because a few of the staff are hungry too?
## Walls1337bot: ##
> Would restaurants ever kick out patrons who just ordered appetizers because a few of the staff are hungry too?
They shouldn't, but ultimately they can, because fuck you. It's a private corporation, not a government service. United could simply refund everyone the ticket price, empty the plane, and then the CEO could ride on it doing blow with his 15 hookers. If you have a problem with that you can start your own airline.
