Automated customs entry Form 2019-2022

Years ago I worked at document management company.  There is cool software that can automate aspects of hand-written forms.  We had an airport as a customer - they scanned plenty and (as I said before) this was several years ago...On your airport customs forms, the "boxes" that you 'need' to write on - are basically invisible to the scanner - but are used because then us humans will tend to write neater and clearer which make sit easier to recognize with a computer.  Any characters with less than X% accuracy based on a recognition engine are flagged and shown as an image zoomed into the particular character so a human operator can then say "that is an "A".   This way, you can rapidly go through most forms and output it to say - an SQL database, complete with link to original image of the form you filled in.If you see "black boxes" at three corners of the document - it is likely set up for scanning (they help to identify and orient the page digitally).  If there is a unique barcode on the document somewhere I would theorize there is an even higher likelihood of it being scanned - the document is of enough value to be printed individually which costs more, which means it is likely going to be used on the capture side.   (I've noticed in the past in Bahamas and some other Caribbean islands they use these sorts of capture mechanisms, but they have far fewer people entering than the US does everyday)The real answer is: it depends.  Depending on each country and its policies and procedures.  Generally I would be surprised if they scanned and held onto the paper.   In the US, they proably file those for a set period of time then destroy them, perhaps mining them for some data about travellers. In the end,  I suspect the "paper-to-data capture" likelihood of customs forms ranges somewhere on a spectrum like this:Third world Customs Guy has paper to show he did his job, paper gets thrown out at end of shift. ------  We keep all the papers! everything is scanned as you pass by customs and unique barcodes identify which flight/gate/area the form was handed out at, so we co-ordinate with cameras in the airport and have captured your image.  We also know exactly how much vodka you brought into the country. :)

I hate them. Please, hear me out.Unpaid internships prperverse incentives.One of the biggest problems with unpaid internships is that there is no incentive for an employer to properly manage the hours of the intern. Because they’re not paid, an employer can work their intern 24/7 if they choose. These internships can be considered legal if the intern is receiving school credit or is working for a public agency.Unpaid internships are classist.Not every young person can work an unpaid internship, often due to cost. Many people are from areas where internships are rare, and must relocate to work an unpaid internship. There, they must pay rent and living costs. If they’re not getting paid to intern, where do you suppose that money comes from? This is compounded if the internship demands full-time hours, making it impossible to get a side job that pays the bills. Unpaid internships favor wealthy people whose parents can fund their learning.Unpaid internships can be a cover for janitorial/other non-useful work.At some unpaid internships, “interns” are used for menial tasks, such as cleaning, getting coffee, and other tasks that aren’t really on-the-job learning. While this isn’t strictly speaking legal if the majority of the work isn’t job-related, it isn’t really feasible for most interns to press the issue.Unpaid interns can rarely complain.Many unpaid internships are in fact illegal, but the only way to press the issue is often through legal claims. This can be incredibly intimidating and unattainable for young people. Lower-income young people cannot afford an attorney, and the laws are tough to navigate on your own. In addition, most young people are raised not to complain, to just do the work, and that the boss is always right.Many unpaid internships are illegal, and are NOT “just young people paying their dues”.Unpaid interns cannot be obligated to work full time hours, replacing a paid worker of the company. They cannot do jobs that immediately benefit the company, but should undergo consistent training, with some duties. They cannot be coerced into working ever longer and longer hours. I know some older people may have ideas about paying-dues, but free coercive labor is not the way to accomplish this.If you’re an employer:Please do not hire unpaid interns. Even a stipend or minimum wage is better than placing someone in a coercive position where they are subject to your whim, and effectively discriminating against anyone who is middle or lower class.If you do hire unpaid interns, please make sure the internship is flexible enough they can get another job, or can choose to commit less time if something comes up. Please understand that 70 hours a week is too much to work most employees, but especially someone who is volunteering their time.If you’re an unpaid intern:Ask questions in the hiring process. Make sure that you will not be treated unfairly. This includes not having to work full-time hours or more ( 40 hours a week) and the ability to choose your work time within reason.If you are treated unfairly, know that you can complain to higher ups, or call a Fair Labor Hotline in your state. Do not let anyone belittle you because of your age or experience level, you’re still a human being and deserve answers. You DO have rights, and you CAN do something about it.Try to get scholarships from your school that can cover housing costs while you work. Most schools offer them if you look hard.It IS sadly legal for the government to work unpaid interns as they choose. Steer clear of these, and if you are really interested, please ask questions about how many hours they really mean. I fell into this trap so you don’t have to.Sources for More Info:Unpaid Internships: Unfair and UnethicalUnpaid Internships: Bad for Students, Bad for Workers, Bad for SocietyU.S. Department of Labor

Let’s run a quick thought experiment.Imagine your favourite kind of food. Mine is pizza. So while you read this next part, substitute “pizza” with whatever your favourite kind of food is.Imagine if tomorrow, all the pizza makers in the world decided that they feel their product is worth more than people have traditionally been willing to pay for it. Instead of $30 for a decent pizza with some extra toppings, they’re suddenly going to start charging double that: $60. This is so that the pizza makers can start earning a “living wage.”Can you really not see why that would be upsetting to me? If pizzas are going to double in price overnight, or even over a time span of 5 years, I can guarantee that I’m going to stop eating as much pizza. If the price doubles, I’m probably going to end up buying half as much, because my junk food budget is pretty rigid. Then again, that’d leave half my junk food evenings without any meals to fill them, so the more likely outcome is that I’ll switch over to my second-favourite junk food (let’s say burgers), one that hasn’t had its price increased so arbitrarily, and I’ll just make do with that. Maybe I’ll get pizza twice a year as a special treat, but no more than that.That’s exactly what happens with the proposition of a living wage, and it’s for pretty much the same reasons that some people don’t think it’s a great idea. Just suddenly declaring that a product (in this case, labour) should cost double what it’s been costing up until now (the infamous $15/hr demand) will force many businesses to make do with less labour (hello, automation!), or with cheaper labour (hello, outsourcing to Mexico and China!).The living wage argument is also based on the assumption that every job that exists is somehow worth enough of a wage for the person doing that job to live off. That’s not even close to being true. Who is going to pay Timmy to rake leaves and give him enough money to live comfortably off of it? Some jobs just aren’t worth a living wage. Some jobs have always been meant to be part-time affairs, or entry-level positions designed to prpart of the remuneration in the form of experience (which is crucial to newcomers fresh out of school). When you’re just starting out in the job market, experience is much more important to gain than money (learning how to take orders, how to be proactive, how to survive the corporate fishtank, how to handle customers, how to defer and when—there are hundreds of job-related skills that can’t really be taught in an academic setting, and have to be learned on the job, and I know because I spent 6 years studying and firmly believe I learned most of my job-related skills in that first 6 months of going to work and actually• you know, working.)The living wage argument doesn’t take experience into account, which is a big problem with it. It wants to make labour more expensive to purchase without bothering to increase the value of the labour being purchased, which is another big problem with it.Remember, it’s not that people don’t want those who work not to earn a living wage. If we could magically create more (inflation-free) money and ensure everybody had a living wage (along with sparkly ponies), I’m sure hardly anybody would object to that. It’s the paying for that living wage that’s the problem. Because that money doesn’t just materialise out of thin air. Someone has to pay for labourers to receive a living wage. And nobody wants to pick up the tab.These are some of the reasons why people don’t like the idea of a living wage. It’s arbitrary. Kinda like declaring that $30 pizzas should suddenly cost $60. You can’t do that and then fault people for going “WTF?”UPDATE 1Interesting comments so far, but they tend to focus immediately on the profitability of pizza specifically, which wasn’t really the point I was making. I was merely pointing to why people would be upset if a key expenditure of theirs (in my case, pizza, in Walmart’s case, labour) were to suddenly double in cost overnight by decree of the government. In my mind, that sufficiently explains why many people (businesses in particular) are not happy with the concept of a living wage.But the comments did raise another interesting and thoroughly flawed idea that I hear bandied about very often: The notion that if a business (let’s say a pizzeria) cannot afford to pay its employees a living wage, then that’s a signal that society does not really value the product it provides, and hence that business should, in a display of karmic justice, be demolished, since it does not deserve to thrive.This shows a stunning lack of consistency of thought. Such an argument wants to pay homage to the free market forces that must decide whether society values a business• product (i.e. they want free market forces to reign supreme on the output side of the equation), while at the same time wanting to prevent those same free market forces from operating on the input side of the equation!How convenient.If the free market (let’s say, for pizza) ought to be given the right to determine whether society values pizza enough to pay for it, then certainly the free market for labour (the employees working at the pizza place) should also be allowed to freely decide whether they want to work at the pizza place for whatever pay they want, whether that’s a living wage or not. (Experience over the last handful of decades has shown that employees of pizza places are more than willing to work for less than a living wage.)Either the market gets to decide freely on both sides of the equation, or it doesn’t. You can’t have it both ways to suit your narrative.UPDATE 2Okay, if one more person says I am actually comparing my ease of access to pizza with other people’s ease of making a living wage (and preferring the former at the cost of the latter) I might lose my mind!Please, guys. The pizza is just an EXAMPLE. It can be anything that one spends money on routinely. It can be gasoline. It can be health insurance. For crying out loud, I could have used INSULIN as an example. Come to think of it, maybe I should have.The point I am making is not “Muh pizza! nom nom nom”The point is “Just as I would hate vendors doubling the price of my pizza/gasoline/overnight, businesses are hating the idea of doubling the cost of their labour overnight.” That is the point. I am trying to make it relatable to anybody reading this, so they can imagine how THEY would feel if something that they routinely spend money on suddenly doubles in price. Shame on me for thinking that loving pizza is a relatable trait. :/I repeat: It is not about the pizza. (And honestly, I’m a bit embarrassed for the general level of critical thinking skills in these here parts that I am having to point this out.)In fact, in the grand scheme of things, pizza is a luxury item with a very high elasticity of demand, so it was not the best example—my bad. For most businesses, labour has a very low elasticity of demand (until they can afford full-scale automation, anyway). So please, for the love of all that is sacred, stop focusing on the PIZZA specifically. In my original answer, replace “pizza” with “insulin” or “dooberry” or “product X” if that helps you make better sense of the underlying argument.
