I’ve tried a few different packages before, including the ones you mentioned. However, in the end, I decided to build my own data structures. It was actually pretty fun to create them based on my own preferences, and I learned a lot about functional concepts along the way.

But to be honest, I rarely use them nowadays. The thing is, C# wasn’t really designed to be a functional language from the start. So while I could incorporate some functional concepts, the implementation never quite matched up to what you would find in a true functional language. Plus, the language can be pretty verbose, which kind of gets in the way.

This experience was a couple of years ago though, and I know that C# has improved a lot since then. So it’s definitely possible that my experience today would be different.

Everyone I’ve asked has them too.

This is funny because “push” sounds similar to pull in Portuguese. So it’s very common for new English speakers to read a push/pull sign, get confused, and do the opposite. All of us Portuguese speakers are “gifted” when we are just starting to learn English. 🤣

Another option is to send the bill to the employer. The guy has already paid enough with losing two legs, and the employer should be responsible since they took a risk by hiring someone without legal status.

If it’s denied, passengers can file a complaint with the Canadian Transportation Agency, a process can take up to two years due to a backlog of about 64,000.

I’m on that queue. I’ll let you guys now the result in a few years.

CEO said that forgiving bills for this kind of a thing is a standard practice, but how come this was the customer support’s first reaction:

We normally discount these kinds of attacks to about 20% of the cost, which would make your new bill $20,900. I’ve currently reduced it to about 5%, which is $5,225.

If the customer support has authority to give 20%/5% discounts, this seems to me like the standard practice, and the CEO is probably just doing damage control because this became public.
